  1. see withams have new tracgrips for sale 9 /16 250 quid per tire.
  2. will try to post pic tomorrow of it. 12 inch long tube 1/4 dia one end fits into gun or extension tube other end has approx inch long smaller piece of tube hollow but with v small hole in it angled to a point, u push point into nipple where ball bearing depresses, pump grease gun ,grease travels out of point into nipple, it was the only thing that allows u to grease rear ferret u/js with engine installed. because end is smaller makes it easier to see if grease going in where access limited.
  3. can u do a link to lee's thread about tyre changing
  4. will be coming up to the bash on sat sadly with out ferret , is there expected to be many trade stands there ?
  5. success with rear u/js greasing 12 inch grease tube with needle type adapter end, couple of flex hoses you hold needle end into grease nipple a willing volunteer cheers ian ! pumps gun! most satisfying watching the grease extrude out !:cool2:
  6. unless a fox is metric unlike a ferret i would imagine if you own a fox buying a socket set and spanners would be a good move and like i mentioned machine mart sells a reasonable range of metric and a/f possibly whit and/or bsf as well , for not alot of dosh ( not compared to fuel at 125 p a :cool2:litre anyway!!!
  7. across the flats measurement is taken , if u in uk machine mart is good source of cheap tools.
  8. don,t cant get camera pics onto computer !! had to count to ten!!!
  9. interesting my mk1/2 ferrets last reg was life guards went to them june 86 having had a workshop code change from 4120 to 4000 it is modded with a front hatch to accommodate a n/v scope.,
  10. what percentage of mvs who got painted in gulf war paint actually had sand under their wheels/ tracks ?
  11. its not that the batts are at a low state of charge is it?
  12. yeh have got a extension for grease gun u have to get grease nipple at spot on right angle will try again sun access is thru plates on underside if no good will try a needle type fitting on nipple ( it will not defeat me!!)
  13. good question, ferret has oil bath air cleaner in fighting compartment i know some people run them with no oil in , same as open carbs mod on motorbikes how- ever in a dusty environment i for one would keep topped up with oil.
  14. has any one had any luck greasing the rear u/j,s thru the access plates that have brake pipes running across them proving to be a bit awkward !!! hints advice plse.
  15. cheers for posting a few pics glad to see the gulf war ferret is featured ! must get a 7.62 bren(lmg)!!
  16. can get into forum section but would need to register and log in.
  17. adrian are now going to send me a email conforming i have cover at rallies / shows etc, HOWEVER the scenario of little lad tripping and hitting head on my ferret for example is still a public liability issue which as far as they are concerned is arranged at a club level fine if u belong to mvt and go to a mvt event. probably won,t use adrian flux next year!!!
  18. This year is a steep learning curve i know mvt have a public liability scheme for members cant see from there web site if imps do can u get public liability insurance outside of mv insurance policy as adrian flux are being less than helpful !!!
  19. i notice a lot of show entry forms now require the entrant to have a public liability cover one saw quoting 2,000.000 of cover i know my company does not issue this / thats what they say, adrian flux to me today, any one know about this.? i see bunker bash form asks for off road third party cover
