fv1609 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Paul is your 432 a Mk 1? If so I think you might need these spare generators & gen panels. http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread.php?t=10364 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulob1 Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 Hi everyone, my 432 is a MK1/2...I love the zils but without diff locks they can get really stuck really easily...stolly never been stuck yet, doesnt go where you want it to in the really deep mud mind....The 432 is totally new and I have a lot to learn about her...looking to get a Ural 375d and possibly a flat bed something to carry them around to shows... Will try to go to salisbury with the stolly for the bank holiday weekend...will be real fun sounds like.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulob1 Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 it arrived anmd it is sweet, turns nice and starts on the button, not too much smoke, but a bit...se needs a bit of use I suspect, first step will be to get her painted sand colour and then to start replacing hatch seals and anything else that is gone...she is in a pretty sorry state and needs a good bit of tidying but she will be lovely when finished... need a set of tracks as well as spares, spare track pads and the back seats etc etc...oh this is going to be fun...

sirhc Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I wouldn't buy a spare set of track unless all the bushes are knackered, but I would buy a few spare links. Pads aren't too expensive, £5 each or so. You will need roadwheels though, they don't last forever and can fall to bits out on the roads. I had the rubber from one over take me once! There are some pads here: http://www.thexmod.com/item_detail.asp?id=3521 Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
