A good quality modern lithium based grease will do the job there are a number on the market, check the specification on the can if your not sure, it will say something like 'suitable for high temperature applications'. Pete

I'll take a sensible offer on this, you can collect at Malvern on the 19th or I'll wrap at cost for you

Having a clear out and making some space on the racking prior to starting a new project in the spring. I have a few random jeep parts that are now surplus to requirements that I'll post over the next week or so First up is a Ford GPW transfer case: no sheared bolts threads are all good, all mounting lugs in perfect condition, I have left it unpainted so that you can see there are no cracks in the case. Ford cases do not come up very often this side of the pond so save yourself a fortune in shipping and import tax, ideal for a factory restoration GPW or will of course fit an MB should you wish £120.00 I can take to Malvern on the 19th or will wrap for courier that you provide, or you can collect in person (I'm a long way west) your choice Pete

Real old school machining and craftsmanship Sam, so many now can only use computer controlled machines. keep the up dates coming it's always a pleasure to see your workmanship Pete

I also read about this case in CMV the figures being quoted were pretty eye watering. I suspect company names were not provided for legal reasons however I would be keen to know the details and eventual outcome as forewarned is forearmed

Rob go on Face Book and find this group they will give you chapter and verse on the subject there is some very useful information on there and some very knowledgeable people WW2 British Army Jeep Research (BAJR) https://www.facebook.com/groups/424561644379118/ Pete

Thanks for posting the filter and pump photos very useful, I need to replicate these on the D15T at some stage. Pete

All I will say is from the stand point of someone who could not run a web site of any shape or form I am immensely thankful for those who can and do....... like most club related actives it can be a thankless task...... so once again well done chaps thank you for your considerable efforts. Pete

Just found the same problem first page loads fine then next page won't load
