Ian

A great transformation.... So, what's your next project?

the pinky blue thing on top intrigued me most

It's your for the right price mate

I do have something fitting planned for the pinky blue thing, but I need to get the 6x6 fixed first

interesting collection in the trailer Ian

Dig deeper and you never know what you will find

There's odd's n sods of metal that have been following me around for years!

why didnt you put a pic of your thumb up too

You get to see the offending hammer, what more do you want?

Hi,

I have a Landmaster 150 do you still need this info?

I have an old 160 which I believe is just a larger engine if you still need info I may be able to help

Fantastic first post guy's, both offering help.. Thank you

Now don't be shy, make yourselves known, we would love to see your machines

It lives

Glad you got it working without having to cut the body about

Oh, I tweaked your post to show the video a bit better

Not much to report yet, so to give you a few photo's to look at until the axle arrives I went searching for some steel to use as part of the chassis..

Can you spot it?, Right at the back behind the trailer of mostly scrap metal.. The small box section frame from Garry's trike will be saved

Yep, buried in the nettle is the filming trailer I made quite a while back!

That's right, I'm cutting up the filming trailer.. It's just never been used since it was built, it's too hard getting enough people together at the same time..

And anyway, I need the steel and might have a good use for the wheel hubs

Now available in kit form

I think what I like about Arc welding is there is no messing about with bottles or having to take the side/top cover off to change a reel of welding wire..

When your Arc rod runs out it takes seconds to swap it

"And it's stopped rolling along"

I think I've just got so used to using an Arc that I struggle with a MIG..     Back in the day before an Arc welder came into my life I did all my welding with a Mig but was always worried about the strength of it!  My welds were not pretty back in those days

use your mig ian

I know mate, I did think about it, but somehow I can't get my head around using a MIG on structural stuff!

im not collecting that for you 

It would cost in fuel about about 10 times (maybe more) than I've paid for postage

Good find Ian !

Thanks James, I can't wait until it gets here (early next week) so I can make a proper start on "Why Not" rather than just keep balancing bit's in place and looking with a silly grin on my face

it's near Norm...

Have you been looking at a certain online auction place Mark?

UPDATE!!!!     Quad rear end found, it even has a diff lock     Just got to work out how to get it back from Scotland now

I told you

It was worth the pain mate

The trouble is finding one that's strong enough and within my price range!!

Toying with Chris's idea of using a car IRS setup, but that would limit me a bit and I'd not be able to change gear ratios should the urge take me..

Also thinking about making my own axle and maybe some ally wheel hubs!! We shall see..

If I saw a nurse with that in her hand, I'd be running

greenfield 1/ wheelhorse lost thats my boy

But the Wh was more entertaining to watch... And it didn't roll over

I've let the BLMRA know about the videos as they asked 

Not much to report here, I got the outrigger fully welded and primed yesterday..

But when I went to weld in some inner axle mount strengthening..

I found my new pack of welding rods had suffered water damage!!

So no more welding until a fresh pack of welding rods turn up tomorrow

I bet your glad it wasn't a runner..  I'd be scared driving something with that axle bodge!

Do you still have this deck Charlie?

WOW!! That's the best bodge I've seen on an axle!!  At least there might be a few spares inside the trans..

I have to wonder if they pulled the axle out and turned it on a lathe, or did they just put it in gear and hold a file against the axle!

Happy birthday mate, hope you have a good one planned

Now that looks fun, apart form the harsh ride! Bet you couldn't site down all week

It was great fun, but my right hip killed me for a few days after
