  1. My vehicle has a non servo system, so a second main cylinder would brake as normal.

    Still the cost is steep to get a system working.

    I rather buy a 3ton capacity vehicle trailer or get stuff running and fly over and drive back. Vehicle transporters asked a fortune and damaged my vehicle by 1000 pounds.

  2. if it can drive, i need to pay my dad fuel money and we go convoy by three and get him as a foot passenger with beer money back to europoort and my brother drives him home. <br><br>my other option is to go back and get it driving slap on a APK and drive to the boat. in the uk get a registration for it and just enjoy it. i need to get engines and gearboxes over aswel. <br><br>the use of a A frame in the UK is not needed after my vehicles are over. if i had a vehicle trailer or a C licence car transporter to shift a lot of goods it would have helped.

  3. A sliding construction like a sankey has, and a brake cylinder plumbed in to give brake capacity. I do plan to stay legal and tow my lightweight from storage in holland to my home in lincs. The dutch army used the points i plan to use as lifting and towing eyes. Does anyone got a sankey parts place?

  4. Nice to see progress :)

    I love the rivit work, what tools are needed for those?

    Land rovers use aluminium dome rivits... You guessed it, i want to learn it. Can't wait to see the result on the road.

    If you go to the war and peace, we can meet up for some talk. Was it you lot who had the WW1 truck stuck in the mud?

  5. It should have been a popular adaption, i hardly find anything on it. I did buy half a reduction box once, a defender used it to pto power a home made pulley on the half of that gearbox bit and that powered the dowty pump for hydrolics of the Mk2 hydro winch. That unit is in my rarities cabinet.

  6. That's why i say i like to work there, no order to small to get service with a smile.

    Hi viz looks great on me ;) and once i know my way round things ... If the pay is decent, even for a part time job i am sorted, the daily commute of 1,5 hours single trip is no issue.

  7. I have only been at Withams once, to help pick up a few defenders that werent road worthy. They did not like us working on the lot to make a runner out of them, afterall a few needed to be driven on and off the ferry. I did how ever leave my phone number for the day he needed a extra man to work for them. Seemed like a nice bunch to work with.
