|  Vic rail 2225 
			
			Hi all, this is another bit of our history to be back on track  VR 2225 nice hull with an excellent floor. Pulled the diff apart and it was a bit ordinary inside so I used another half I had so now it's like new. If I put too many pics on, just let me know. |

			As my supply of diff saddle clamps have diminished I need to make a couple. I started with a solid piece 6"x 2 1/2 then made a big mess on the floor with a lot of swarf.

 Please keep the threads going with many many pictures. It is from those and your explainations that us novices learn what the restoration of a vehicle is all about. I follow your work with great interest and look forward to the next installments.  Cheers Tony

			Why not in the Sergeant's Mess? Or if you want to talk about your vehicles, there are appropriate areas for those too.
