That was the bl**dy penguin..:argh: couldn't find him for a moment but I didnt' think I'd hit him that far, can't be too angry, he hasn't had a comfort break for hours..

Puppy sitting, what better excuse..

310.3 he bounced..

201.8 third try........must try harder :-D

Well he couldn't have been too thick if he managed to hit the chisel! If you can't get any info on the oversize, you could ask someone like Fraser Hook at Chelsea Frictions, he seemed to have all the relevant Scammell info when he relined my front shoes, and can make the linings to suit. fraserchelseafrictions.co.uk

I'm almost sure it is stamped on the edge of the drum, I may be wrong but I think I have seen it somewhere like that. Do you think this would this explain the bodge to the cotters?

None at all, and not sure if I do now even after reading your explanations.. I just tried a rather catch all answer, everybody else did the work..

:rofl:

Is it for detecting /pinpointing/identifying anything approaching in fog, smoke or poor visibilty, tanks or such like?

I was thinking of Newfoundland, probably not a problem to us in UK. Trouble is most info that truck manufactures put out is aimed at commercial users working their kit hard, it is not always easy to decide what to do with low mileage preserved vehicles on a budget, all those scary chemicals like SCA bubbling away..

Clive, be careful about over 50% mix, not recommended by most makers, Many engine failures are the result of improper antifreeze usage. To protect equipment from coolant–related damage, it is critical to know the different antifreeze types, required mix ratios and problems that could result from improper use. A 100 percent antifreeze solution will turn to a solid at 9°F (–13°C). For best all–around protection, use a 50:50 mixture of antifreeze and water. Concentrated antifreeze needs water for chemical balance and optimum performance. found here http://www.castrol.com/castrol/sectiongenericarticle.do?categoryId=82915572&contentId=7022991

water current/flow sensor?

The sender unit unwinds the cable as it floats off?

Is the unit just all we can see, does it sit upon a shaft or similar in the ground/seabed?

:rofl::rofl:

A prototype electric Flymo test rig, the designer was worried about excessive lift...

Nick, I have the puller and spanner, you are welcome to borrow them but I think distance is going to prevent this happening (unless you know better), I reckon you could make a puller using a spare hub cap/slinging flange. Forceful had a lost a hub in service which left the shaft and hub tapers a bit scored, I carefully filed off all burrs that were too high on the shaft. As it was not possible to clean the inside of the hub taper, a replacement one was checked for fit with engineers blue and well tightened. I painted a mark across the shaft /nut and checked often for the first few years, nothing has moved in fourteen years, so don't worry too much, if Floyd has lost a hub it may be a relatively easy fix, which hopefully should have already been done.

you could try this capture method, there are others, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3T1lQiF-oYg&feature=related

It does not appear to work when youtube is in full screen view, that is, the capture menu is hidden, I cut this straight off a paused utube clip, could have done better with the selecting to get rid of the border though. No video tools in the program that I can see.

Comes out like this:

Clive, here is a link to Photoscape, it is a free photo editing program, it has a nice screen capture tool that works well and is easy to use. You can select and open in the editor any part of the screen, then you can 'save as' from there. http://www.photoscape.org/ps/main/screenshot.php At the top of the page is a download tab

the slot allows a socket extension to be inserted from the side in order to turn it close to a firewall/bulkhead? tighten by hand, torque up with extension?

On mine all four are as per book, adjustment with new shoes is correct.

On reflection the only reason I can think of for fitting the outer seal facing inwards would mean that the springs (keeping the leather pressed against the hub) would be protected from rusting and being compacted with mud.

Mike my book says lips together, but the exploded diagram only confuses the issue as it shows one clearly facing together but the other one unclear. Facing together would indeed allow water to get in between the seals, not good. I have not renewed mine but they are fitted in the most logical way as you suggest, lips facing apart.
