Thats the only way mate. Take it all off & the boot etc. & you'll see a transverse steel pin that the lever forks onto. This is whats most likely siezed. You have to have patience & a lot of WD40 & spray grease & work it side to side & back & forth.You'll know when its free.

Thats the problem I found, where to get the used oil. Most of the chippy's etc round here have a deal with their suppliers to buy back the waste.

sounds like bike shows! What trade stand have you got?

they've got a good reputation.

They go even better on coal!

Ratty, Kelly Kettle mate, takes 45 seconds to boil up two pints! Only you've got to have some dry wood!

thanks mate, nice to hear someone defending em over there. Never quite got into Queensland when I was there. Great country.

I take it you dont like them then?! I must say most, but not all, of the Aussies i've met like Land Cruisers, mainly for reliability.

Yes, apologize to the guy for my comment above. Its easy to critisize i suppose when you cant see the full facts, & have no probs driving anywhere myself.

Thats basically what i've done with mine so far.

Lifechooser said it. Forget the handbrake thats for parking, practice till you get it right! I cant belive you've got a 90 & dont know how to drive.

Good pics . Paul D, have you cut the front skirt off & left the end pieces on, I thought it was all one piece. Havnt been out to check yet, 6" of snow!

Kuh, BMW , the architypal Chelsea tractor!

Anyone going from Colchester to Somerset? Have 4 tyres need to deliver . Thanks in advance.

Blimey mate ,I should snap his hand off!

Yeah ,but the aircon is'nt belted up

Well, hang on ,I dont know either. It was the sound you get like an electric fan kicking in when its up to temp, only hav'nt got leccy fan! Someone who knows more about them than me could tell?

took mine off last year, & there was only one time I heard the thermostat kick in & that was when we towed our caravan , which is a quite big twin wheel one, to Dorset Steam Fair. Where we park is over the other end of the site up the hill, & when we parked up & idling to shunt the van etc. I...

I did mine a while ago now & I've forgotten what it was like before! Also got a straight through minus the stupid cat! When I was an apprentice ,one of the men told me you could loosen any nut & bolt bt tapping on the flats in the direction of undoing, so anticlockwise.

Hope you do to both! I loved it in Aus when I went a few years ago now. Should have bloody stayed.
