Can't make it,- in Florida at mo- need to put mine through mot, it's good to go and will do it as soon as I get home. Will be at pub next month

hopefully- fitted new diff, now just need to put it through its MOT and I am ready for winter.

Mrs car broke down, just got in

Hammer it back, or jack under bulkhead foot gently, then knock it out

Whoops- just checked mine and I did have lock nuts- please ignore my earlier post!!

Its the ball joint that screws into the steering bar I believe he is worried about

Set to the length you want then fit them-they cannot move ie shorten or lengthen once fitted (as they have opposite threads) I had the same worries/ conundrum when I bought mine- but they are fine.

try jacking (gently) under base / foot of the bulkhead- then get a small diameter bar/ screwdriver and knock the bolt out.

Jai Would you have any diffs for sale?

I set up with Stuart this morning- it is pretty dry up there- ground is rock hard. I don't think there is anything to punishing vehicle wise. Got the see-saw included in one section.

I cannot make Sunday, but have offered to help Stuart set up on Saturday

Could do Thursday

They do stock new steel in long lengths, but you are better of having a rummage in the skips

I bought quite a bit the last time I was there- they just weigh it and pretty much charge the scrap value- I want to go back and get some box to make tree sliders.

I go to this one- Skip hire, steel stockholding, waste and metal recycling at F.D.O'Dell & Sons Ltd

Can't make tonight- got to take Mrs out :yawn:

I left yesterday afternoon as I knew it would be bedlam gettng out today- even with MT's it took a bit of effort. I have no idea how the Nissan Micra half way down the hill got out- it would have fallen into some of the ruts :p

When are you setting of for Stainby?

When are people planning to get there at the weekend? What facilities are there? showers?

Go to Wales in a Series 2 with 2 1/4 diesel- :eek: no chance
