Redspec

Hi Luke If you get the car down on Sat we can have a check under it as-well, and a few hoodies to check out the running issues they can't all play at Blue Peter with plastic / bog roll inners / string at the same time :rofl:

That sounds great, salad / cheese slices anyone?

Well 1 week to go, anymore for anymore, looks like we have 9+ for food, how about we make a list of anyone intending to bring bits along as I would hate to end up with 34 burgers and nowt to put them in If you are bringing stuff to share please post or PM. I will start 12 Buns / rolls / barm cakes / cobs ( as there seems to be confusion on here so I thought I would use a multi lingual definition) Butter Red - brown sauce 12 burgers 2 disposable BBQ'S Steve

Thats because they are not the original super spec mounts, they were a round bar that passed through the shocker lower bush and had 2 flat ends that bolted to the wishbone, the slot was required for bottom of the shock to clear the wishbone. The line of holes is so the position can be changed, only 2 bolts were used with the original mounts. the general advice on here is to mount as close to the hub as possible. I would mount the plates you have on top so the bolts only see a shear stress and are not taking any load. but it might be easier to mount the way you have them, if they were on top you might have to compress the springs? depending on what length springs you are using. Steve

Is that the bottom mounts that uses a round bar with flat ends? If so on top. HTH Steve

PM's sent with location / contact detail's Any problems just shout Steve

Ok Ok best change that to doors & boot cover day LOL.

After talking to a couple of local members about doors / wind deflectors I have had the idea of a doors day at our workshop (plastic fabrication). Date - Sat 21st Time - I will be there from 9-30 Food - BBQ if you could bring a couple of bits and bobs it would help, tea and coffee got plenty Tools - you name them we have them so you can leave yours at home Materials - if its plastic sheet we will have it Cost - nowt (donation to the tea fund would not be refused for materials used) Don't be put off if the weather is naf the roof is waterproof, just come in the tin top and the BBQ lunch will still be on Will have an elevation system so anyone that wants to look under / fiddle with there car they can. Any other suggestions welcome. Please reply this post so I can get an Idea of numbers / PM for address / tel numbers. Any one just wanting to come and kick tyres / eat / drink tea welcome. Steve

LOL

Hi John Know the place well, but looking at the forecast I don't think I'll make this one, unless it's in the tin top for an hour. But keep posting we could do with more NE run out's AND BETTER WEATHER

As long as get a soap on a rope you will be ok

No it's not as there is nothing wrong with that part, but yes I agree just changing the box type will not help

Glad you got home ok, give me a shout if you need anything. I'll give you a call in a few days to see about a "doors day" at work in a couple of weeks

Have you got a problem with yours??? The main problem I found was the spigot bearing, The rest of the mods I did because I had the box out. there was no misalignment and talking to quadradave he found the same when doing his. Heavy clutch - I put this down to the fact it uses a rover cover plate that used a Hydraulic clutch Clutch rattles - this is caused by the method the clutch fork is pivoted with - it won't fail HtH Steve

+1 but it was a bit more than damp at times, just got home and the sun has come out :sorry:

If the weather is ok count me in.

How about 10.00- 10.15 am If the weather is ok

Sounds good At least with it being on a sunday I WILL be off work (I hope LOL) How about meeting at the garden centre on the a69 corbridge round about (Brockbushes?).

Hi Ed If it's the standard rad that came with the rover / superspec kit, the thermostatic switch for the fan is in the bottom right corner on the front of the rad looking from the nose cone. Steve

Thanks nigel, Yes just a hard reset required Wish all fixes were that easy - well once someone points you in the right direction. Thanks again Steve

LOL It does in my profile, but not on any posts - it went on strike when the board changed over Any one know how to tempt him back to work???????????? Steve

Bloody work

Well I thought this may happen - I have to work See you all next time Steve

Sounds good to me, see reply in other post.

Hi Steve, Could not make it AGAIN last night due to work being so busy, it looks like all the stuff firms did not order over the last 2 years has come through all at once and they all want it yesterday, Monday sounds good to me (if I'm not at work during my week off) Steve
