radiomike7 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 hi all do any of you know the full itinerary of the recovery gear for the scammell explorer :-D . Yes, it varied slightly between contracts but at one stage I had every single item brand spanking new including the rare manual chainsaw in it's leather case:-D The oak skids/rollers/gunplanks would cost a small fortune at todays prices.

radiomike7 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 (edited) They could have spelt HOLLEBONE correctly:( Knight Surplus have several new ones in stock if anyone is looking for some. I still have a pair of H/D bow shackles and a pair of rope slings lurking in the garage for someone to complete their kit.

HI there Antarmike, Try BSL, you will have to google them for your nearest branch. I got some off them about 6 years ago, Leather too !

I assume you are talhing about the equipment list. difficult to keep track with various conversations. Suppose this is the rear axle thread Sorry i don't have pictures of individual pieces of kit so you will have to ask the others and do some reserch (all part of the fun ) There was a Scammell explorer at the noth fort in Weymouth, The chaps there said it was fully kitted out. wonder who bought it and where it is now. Very rotten living next to the sea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure there must be a REME publication that shows them, but all I can offer is a good description if there is anything you need to know.

rbrtcrowther Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Hi there if you have any luck finding the seals let me know as mine were leaking when i got her home. I have since drained 45 liters of oil out of the walking beams and they have stopped. I have'nt driven it for about 3 years so they may still leak when its on the move. If you have to get some made let me know as we could go halves on the cost. you never know a few others may need some too. PS Mine is a first contract explorer are the seals the same as the later ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS Mine is a first contract explorer are the seals the same as the later ones. yes they are the same ,there is two seals per hub both the same size :-D sometimes the hub shaft is pitted where the seals rub so leaking. the easiest way out of this is a sleeve on the hub shaft :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gps Posted March 19, 2009 Author Share Posted March 19, 2009 tha axle may of been over filled as each of the walking beams should only have 5.7 Litres a total of 11.4 litres other than that they can leak through from the diff so over filling the walking beams .mine was doing the latter after a while it stoped ,i think the leather seal plimed up with the warm oil :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
