Tower and linkage assy
Hi all,Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.I have managed to get the shift tower all hooked up and working thanks to Euen and Keith.I still had to make the support brackets, winch linkage and modify the gate plate inside the tower but the dummy assy is all working fine.I will strip it apart ready for painting tomorrow and turn up some pins for the clevis.A couple of night ago we took the old Blitz down to a mates new dam down the road, that explains what it is doing in the photo,Beer and silly mates cause this.

Seat frames
Hey John, I sure you could find a couple of seat frames under my house. I have found a set of Acco rear fair-leads you may adapt for your project.

Back into it
Hi all, Too long since working on the C15 but got the house to lock up so i can get back to the real job at hand.The base of the cab went on and back into the shed she went.Front nose is on and guards,today i worked on rebushing the compressor as it had a severe oil leak.I found on dissassembly the big end bush had come out and allowed the oil to flow down the oil hole and fill up the crank of the compressor and out the breather.Also the breather wasn't sealed to the pot so i sealed it all up and hopefully it holds oil.Hand brake all done and finishing off the transfer shifter assy.Note the poor old white Chev in the third photo has been robbed of her front diff no more outings for a while. ( Thanks to Euen the fun police)

Interesting about the oil presure and temp
Quote:
Do you have any idea what the cluster with the 60 psi oil pressure and the electric temperature gage came off? That one will work very nicely if you re engine to a 235 or 261. As the later engines have a lot more oil pressure and on the standard gage the needle just sits at top peg. The electric temperature gage will also be interesting as some of the later engines have an electric sensor just under the thermostat at the front of the engine. May take a little playing around to find the correct sender unit or to match/trim the resistance to get a proper reading. Looks like you are making real good progress. Cheers Phil
