Got the thing off!! Put new pads in and replaced the drive flange on both side. This side got a new wheel bearing too. Other side was done a month back.

It took some map gas and butane and two paire of hands to keep the 3 studs hot while a big hammer and chisel was used tonl knock it off.

It held on until the last minute but finally gave up. Lovely stuff. Breaks are much better now too :)

I've just had the worse drive home in the V8....having to stop and let it cool every so often as my leccy fan broke :(


Going to get a custom rad made up to fit in the chassis I think, but the fans now wired up again and it works :D

Just need to adjust the brakes after a late lunch and then I can go driving again :D
 
Took my passenger seat out so my boss couldn't make me pick up a guest from a train station an hours drive away..

Son andy bought a Slick Shift gear lever turret off a guy on face book who makes them this week and it came today so after work he fitted it and its great and just in time for a fishing trip to angelsey tomorrow so a good chance to test it :D
 
Put the back seats down to get Mr SL's mountain bike in the back as he was out with me when I rode me horse. Unfortunately 20 mins onto the ride his chain snapped so had to walk the rest of the way :lol:
 
Stuck some LED lighting strips in and wired them up so that I have internal lights ... and have an illuminated switch to turn them on and off! :D
 
picked up a steering guard and rear shock dropper plates got to fit the steering guard but need a bit more daylight to sort the shock droppers as my nuts have siezed solid so will have to get the angle grinder out and if I'm doing that then I might as well sort the chassis rot in that area aswell
