Good morning, Yes have got an angle grinder and a gas axe,,,, only ones ive done were on an S111,,,,, they were fun, the way I did them was to drill across the stuck heads knock in a silver steel pin and then a pair of stillsons, worked well ,, in reply to "have they been off" id say yes the...

Cheers Lads,, guess what im doing tomorrow. Thanky kindly

Hi All. I need to change the above seals, the S/Bs are fine its just the seals now what im wondering is can pull the whole assembly with 1/2 shaft complete or do I have to strip the bloody lot down,,,, Cheers

Hi Zeaphod, You may have a point matey, she's a 96 with 148,000 on the clock and as far as I know the only things that have been changed apart from discs calipers are the chassis and exhaust so I guess the wear bug could have a hand in this

Hi tottot, James,, Very hard the judge without a manometer but ill try and describe best I can....... At tickover with the pipe off the servo,,, if I put my thumb over the hole you can feel the suction, but the slightest break in the seal and its gone, if I rev the motor and do the same theres...

Hello RR,dont think its bedding,,, the whole story. I changed all four corners as matter of course, the two rear callipers were seized and the front discs well worn,, now having replaced all that the pedal and the braking is still the same as before I changed everything,,,, I tried slapping the...

That makes sense,,,, Just out of interest is there a better way to test the servo,,, the pedal idea seems a bit hit and miss

Ok ive check all the pipework as best I can without removing it. the vacuum on the servo pipe was there but I wouldn't call it a strong one,, ( risking all the jokes ) I could put more vacuum there by sucking the pipe, rechecked the pedal fall again and it was very slow, felt more like it was...

Cheers James, ill go try it now

Hello All, Got a bit of a problem with me old girl, ive fitted new discs and callipers all round, bleed it all clear. haven't touched the servo or vac pump,,, The brakes work okish but they feel very heavy like the servo aint working. Now ive checked the servo by pumping up the brakes then with...

Good morning Niall. That sounds just what im after, but as you say parts could be a problem. However I love to see some pictures if it possible, it may be worth all the hassle. Shooting up isn't a problem im after those red furry tailed rats that keep killing the lambs but im toooo damned old...

I see your point W/M, but would that not mean having eye plates and toggle pins on the outside, I was hoping maybe someone had done it along the lines of a range rover with internal latches. But as you rightly say standard would be a good option.... Thanks matey...Tom

Hello All, not been on the site for awhile but im back now. I want to modify the rear door on my fender90 but don't really know the best way to go about it. ok this what I hope to end up with. a rear window I can ( lower, swing or remove ) but if poss keeping the lower half of the door intact...

Sorry I went quiet side, been dealing with a small heart attack. Ok progress to date. I gave the keys to my daughter ( shock horror ) lol to be fair shes not bad with motors.. well she threw out the oil gauge and fitted a new switch, changed the oil and filter then used my beloved tdi to go to...
