Have fitted the 2WD/4WD trans case rod and connected it to the transfer case but the shift is very stiff. Removed the detent load screw completely on the trans case shift is better but still very stiff.
Can be moved by assistance of a pry bar and taps with the hammer. It is improving but still cant move it with the tower shift. Think it just needs some oil and time........ Now my bloody gearbox wont shift at all!!!! What the heck is going on???? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Gday All,
Just a few progress shots - Actually, it doesnt look like a loy of progress has been made but a lot of fiddly, niggling jobs have been done and as a result I have another list of fiddly, niggling jobs that have arisin. Drilled out old broken bolts and tapped the threads of all exisiting holes in windscreen. Picked out bolts that are almost identical to the originals, in all positions. Very pleased with result. Slid apart the top of windscreen frame to wire wheel and grease. Works beautifully.

Starting mount the driver & passenger foot well panels. Im using canvas webbing between the panels as well. Not too bad to fit. Ive been using a drill to cut holes for bolts to go through the webbing. I think It'll make a difference to the NVH (hope so anyway).
Did away with front engine oil filler. Cleaned up & painted original goose neck cab 12 one & fitted. Put correct choke/throttle base on Carbie. Suprisingly easy to change over. Rest of the time I have been removing my fingerprints on the wire wheel.

Thanks Cliff,
Yes it is hard work - & I know all the guys on this forum have probably experienced it. By this I mean I realise I'm not Robinson Crusoe when it comes to the resto of a Blitz. By Geez it is the most rewarding & fullfilling thing I have ever done in my life & can recommend it to anyone. It is a test of patience, no doubt about that, but the end result.... amazing. Incidentally Chaps, have I mounted the mirrors in right spot? Or can they go in either spot? Have a look at the photo's to see what I mean.

Thanks for all the good vibes lads, much appreciated.
Need some hands on experience feedback to adjusting the clutch. Ive got an interesting noise when the clutch pedal is fully pressed in and the Clutch disengaged, engine idling. Checked operation of thrust bearing - seems OK. Noise stops as soon as clutch pedal is released slightly, about 2cm at the top of the pedal. Having trouble going into first. It will go in but it is grinding which makes me think the clutch is not fully disengaged. I was going to cut a bit more thread on the adjustment rod and bring the adjustment up further along the rod. Any comments from those who have been here??
