I hope you had very fierce words with them and charged them accordingly.

Making new check strap brackets.

Hi, Hi this was my ancient post. As I said earlier I fiddled until it fitted. It does hook over the parcel shelf and under the steering column. Concealed now by the cowling. Best of luck with the fiddling.

Thanks for that. I queried with Paddocks about the difference and they replied that the 2006R was the correct one for the series 3. As for the quality, one can only guess.

Hi All, Still building and playing around with various parts. Question to the clever folk. What is the difference between a series 3 and a series 2a front door? Both our front doors have badly rotted inside frames, although the skins are reasonable. Buying new parts to fabricate the frames...

The centre brackets on my one fits as shown on the previous diagram. They bolt to two short brackets on the chassis. The brackets shown have a couple of nuts welded on them. The slots enable the tub to be raised. Current photo ...Holes are made at the front of the tub and the seat belt bolts...

Thanks for the replies all. I see the final front tub adjustment will depend on the door and front bulkhead all lining up. Having looked at a few online photos I see someone has packed extra rubber under the tub mounts. The front height of the tub is made by raising the adjustable seat belt...

Hi folks, I haven't been here for many months for one reason or another, hope you are all well. I am trial fitting a newly built tub to a new chassis. Having not removed the old tub, I am unsure of where the tub actually rests. Does it rest on the right angle seat belt anchor brackets? Doing...

I am in Poole Dorset, I rebuilt a bulkhead a few years ago I bought the parts from here, were good quality then. https://yrmit.co.uk/product-category/series-2-3-swb/ I also bought a mig welder which I practised on for a few weeks before attempting the actual job. Very pleased with the outcome...

All new brake lines fitted and bled following the book, only one leak from a finger tight joint. Now have working discs on the front (Heystee ones). Just a few smaller jobs to do then on to the body work.

As my original question said ................Has anyone fitted their connecters as in this photo? Just thoughts ....I didn't say I wanted to.

No pipes are fixed or bent at all at that point, only to the calliper. It was a case of... what would happen if we screwed that on there....? Someone must have done it.

Hi folks, Just a quick question. Has anyone fitted their connecters as in this photo? Just thoughts and comments on it. Cheers. Peter

Oh! you mean that black gritty stuff that cuts my fingers when I pick it up?

It probably has only been running on and off for about 2 hours max in the last 5 years. before that it was laying untouched for about 4 years. My eldest sons abandoned project.

Something to watch for 30 seconds.

I sent it off to this place and got it back in a week. £140 including the collection and Royal Mail insurance/postage I paid. Being it is off the road we jacked the back wheels up and went through the gears and speedo worked.

Well Ive taken it out with the trip cable still attached

I suppose costs vary depending on the amount of work needs doing. http://www.jdo1.com is one I have found. It says fixed price repairs and 48 hour service.

Thanks for that.
