Hi what does the jury think to painting the cappings on a station wagon? Body colour or galvanised??? all comments- even rude ones- appreciated.

Never Dead- Never forgotten

I will too- thanks

oh....

I always heard that the S3 box is weaker- from experience i have had more s3 boxes fail or develop major problems than the S2.

IMHO the original seals are too hard and push the door out of shape.

I would love an RL......

I have to buy one for mine- the price is indecent - £288 from Paddock- and I know it won't fit......I have done these before and the way they drain needs careful revision.

I will grovel for it!

If you don't like it i would like to buy it....

Completely Stuck. had to winch it out. A chap came up with a Suzuki jeep- fairly old one with mega knobbly tyres- he got stuck too. My mud is very special.........

Avon Rangemaster? ok until you get to slimy mud.....

thanks- a possible lock has arrived today- thank to the...LANDY ZONE

and I have no barrel sourced

I cannot see how to release the barrel.

Thanks , will try the link to buy one.

hi, I drilled out the pins to dismantle it. not destroy it. Jigglers might be an option- whatever they are....

I have got this far:

I think of it as driving a smelly garden shed around- tools lying about- good view- mud in foot wells- dog rubbing nose all over the windows. Relax. You must have a dog.

An auto lock specialist came and looked today- it was older than his data- and wasn't able to help. so I drilled it out later this afternoon. (After 2 hours on the phone to the DVLA- What sort of people do they employ there?)
