    Been a while.... Distracted with this. My locking diff With heavy duty hubs Re bushing the brake pedal, after making it a bit shorter. Bearing carriers for the intermediate drive shaft Final strengthening plates on the rear sub frame, just needs painting. The collection of bits to build the last bit of transmission That's about it, I have been cleaning and painting four wheels - no pics, it's a bit dull. Gonna be slow progress for a while, got a weekend with my mates in cambridge next week followed by final show of the year at driffield.

    Duel wheel adapters/wheel weights

    Here you are James The basic duel adapters are very easy to make. I can't remember the measurements as they were made many years ago, but allow an inch gap between wheels, so take that into account when you do the measuring.. The basic adapter was made from a strip of thick-ish steel rolled round so it fit's tightly on the inside lip of the wheel.. All it needs are four long coach bolt's to go through the four wheel weight holes to hold the second wheel in place I did take things a stage further by turning the duel wheel adapters into duel wheel wheel weights. Add a base. A "notch" for the tyre valve. Four tubes were added for the coach bolts to run through. Then the other side was capped off. A hole was the cut one side. And the adapter/weight was filled up with concrete using a lamp shade as a funnel Once the concrete had set, the metal that was cut out to fill it was welded back on.. Two Duel wheel adapters/wheel weights As fitted with only one wheel.. Just undo the nuts, slide the second wheel on, and put the nuts back on Ta Daa

    C-120 refurb.

    Thanks for the ifo, James. Hydraulics will be later in the build. I was thinking purple and yellow actually, Ian, with pink polka dots.

    C-120 refurb.

    The chassis and front axle were introduced to wire brush and flap wheel. Wiped down with white spirit and treated to two coats of red oxide primer. Then they were given two coats of agricultural enamel, brush painted. Not the best of finishes, but I'm not after a concourse machine.

    Work on my Wheel Horse Raider 20 6X6

    More progress . Woo Hoo The left side is all finished apart from a greasing the chains, tweaking the middle sprocket cover to fit, and giving it a quick coat of red paint which can be done while waiting for welds to cool on the other side And strip down has started on the right side..

    Good use for a Reliant Robin...

    Hi there, Just had a visit from my friend`s dad, Had to fit some new rear brake shoes to "General Lee" He is a 79 years young,ex carpenter & joiner, this is his latest robin.He bought it like this, it was fitted with "dixie" air horns but I took them off as he is deaf as a post and wouldn`t know if he blew them. The amazing thing is you can find him on youtube busking, playing a saw with a nail and singing in Cambridge and Bury St Edmunds. Look for "Sawman".He is quoted on the internet as "officialy the country`s most tuneless busker"!
