rectification work follow up
After placing the tracks on and running it the short distance, without the fan running, a small crack on the seam of the top radiator tank appeared. So out with the radiator and off to the radiator repair shop.
This also gives me the opportunity to fix up the gear lever play and position, this has been in & out 4 times to get right. It is possible to remove and install this with the power pack installed- bugger of a job.
Due to necessity I have had BGC mirror arms and mount brackets manufactured. I have never come across a useable assembly.
Euan loaned me an original, so had this drawn up in CAD and manufactured on a CNC machine. Collected today.
They are currently listed in the "For sale" section, so hopefully will sell them.
The pic shows the items(s) and the hex bolt (in tapered hole) is just to hold item in position for pic.
I am more than happy with the quality and finish.
