did one worse than that, spent oodles of money to go for a bank holiday weekend of racing (3 days) at cadwell park only to find when i get there i'd left the bike ignition keys at home.

the moral of this is that you learn how to hot wire a bike very quickly.

So...... just finished putting Dana 60 and 14 bolt back under Jeep..

this time with detroit front and rear and with 5.38 r and p..... Fecker should climb out of the sheep dip now :jpshakehead:

Anyway run out of gear oil for front and brake fluid so will have to wait now..... But a play on calculator reveals a crawl ratio..... Gearbox 1 st x Dana low x Klune x r and p of....... Wait for it

Dana 60 and 14 Bolt are meant to take 3 and a wisker of oil (litres) Wonder how I got nearlly 4 in each...maybe its the shape of the armoured diff covers.

Anyway might even get it started tomorrow if time allows........

Here's a pic of last thursdays purchase after a years research and selling the fourth kidney this year :jpshakehead:

So loaded the 1 Ton onto the trailer and off 26miles to Yarwell LRO site for Lard Rover Show....

New ratios in the diffs .....great!

Lockers in both.....great

Did all things we saw Lardys failing at and recued one from a bog with winch.......that unlike Cheapfest did not misbehave this time......

mate who came with might have some pics soon.

Only bummer was getting a blow out on the trailer on the way home...... Completely shredded.....
But highlift did the business of lifting 1 Ton and trailer and spare was OK but needed air.....

1 Tons got on board air and had all tools with me. So 15 mins and back on way......  Just need to buy new tyre now
Bugger!

Note to self..... Small ramp and you don't need a jack to do the trailer wheel change.....just get fOoked tyre in air .
DIDN't have that with me this time :jpshakehead:


Oh yeah..... Yarwell is OK .....don't know if I'd bother again......
Tixover later this month......they got rocks. :icon_twisted:

Have you seen how much air is needed in those tiny trailer tyres?

Run mine at 80 works for me - try Barlow for the replacement tyre, possibly cost effective to buy the whole thing!!!
