    Now there's some money an old Leyland fitted with a modern transporter frame made to look old, a Series 1 80" and probably the most valuable of the three a Series 1 Tickford Station Wagon.

    Testing if 4WD is actually working

    Locating a pair of 3.9 ratio diff's could be a problem these days, wasn't a problem 20+ years ago. You'd better start searching now and be prepared to rebuild them, if you find any.

    It doesn't sound like you have a problem at all. Are you expecting the front wheel to be rock solid without any rotational movement when in FWD???

    When the Free Wheeling Hubs are engaged (connected to the drive train), with the Hi/Lo lever forward and the yellow knob is pushed down the vehicle is in High Ratio FWD. Yeo, you must when returning to the tarmac road surface, move the HI/LO lever from the Hi position to the Lo position then...

    Hubs do not appear to be the issue. That's correct so far, if the Low Ratio lever is pulled back and hubs are locked the wheel only turns a bit then locks (correct as it should be), in gear HI/LO lever pushed forward, transfer gearbox is in 2 wheel drive High Ratio, the 4x4 is disconnected in...

    Jack up one wheel, pull the HI/LO lever back into the Low Position, now turn the prop by hand, does it turn or is it locked in place with a bit of movement (1/2 Turn)???

Jack one front wheel up, with both FWH engaged, does the front prop turn when the wheel is turned, now jack up the other side and retest..only lift one wheel at a time (if you can, hold the prop with one hand and turn the wheel with the other, to make sure the FWH is engaged). 2.

    Most of the time (at this height) they're below or level with you flying over the Thames, apart from the Air Ambulances which buzz around a fair bit. Safety harness and 2 lanyards with scaffold hooks, the most you'll fall is 6 feet, just make sure your clipped on to a solid item.
