It looks like it sat in a recess on the crankshaft but it is made from an alloy...

As you can understand I won't be able to make the weekend :cry: :cry: ......could some be as kind as to bag me a GMC soft cab mirror arm?

Right, you are on! You mean the bit that is supposed to 'slide' off? cough cough, of course I have...............best remind what I need and I wil have it sorted and picked up tomorrow. :oops: :roll:

Hi Tyler. welcome aboard looks a very impressive collection of MV's..............where do you store them all? :shock:

oK, pullers arrived today so when I got home from the office it was overalls on and straight under the tarp and gave the pulley type thing a pull..........nothing, not a sausage apart from breaking this new bearing puller. To say that I am close to losing it is an under statement :cry: so I decided that I would get the small disk cutter on to it. I cut down, gently and the used a cold chisel to knock it open and lift it off the crank............yeah right, nothing not a sausage thing seem to be part of the crank but the actual pulley bit is an alloy. What do I do now as I have to move in the next 10 days and I can't leave my truck here, it has to be moved. I have taken some pictures but they haven't come out well and I am working under a tarp and my camera has no zoom. Any help would be really really appreciated;

Stand by for images of my pulley problem..........your gonna be shocked :cry:

Thanks.

Can I use red oxide on wood?

We are going to create a section for articles written by members and Clive Elliot has been kind enough to allow his work to be posted here. Now I am guessing here, but I dare say that there a lot more clever people out there who have written articles or papers that would be of use to all of us, at the end of the day this is all about 'keeping them rolling' and 'keeping history alive' if you have or you would like to share your work with others then please let me know. We have the potential here to create a wonderful online resource that can be shared with people from around the globe for years to come, what a wonderful way of putting something back! Thanks Clive for getting this started 8) Now has anyone giot any ideas on what we should call this section? Cheers Jack.

Doh! :oops: :oops: :oops: :roll: Now that has made my evening :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: that really is funny..........now you are going to have to teach me how to do that

Fantastic question. You have made me look as alot of my friends in different light :shock: Seriously though, I can believe the first one as it makes perfect sense but I reckon he might be pulling your leg on the second, as how would you who was advertising their sexual preference or would it only be the driver who could hang it?

Thanks for the intro Tim and it is good to have you especially with your knowledge of WW1 MV's. You are right with fact that some people just don't get it when it comes to MV's. Some folks I know do not accept that Land Rovers are MV's :oops: :shock: If you have any pictures then please do get them up here!! and please do make yourself at home but remember to wash your mug up when you have finished! Any problems then please do let me know. Cheers Jack
