See you were checking the brakes
Looks and sounds nice, notice that you were checking the brakes as soon as you had it moving.
Keep up the good work look forward to seeing more as you finish the project up. Cheers Phil

Try a lighter hose like "push lock" hose. It wont have to take high pressure. You dont want much grease there or its going to end up on your clutch.
Is that webbing impregnated with anything? If not, it will hold water, and rot your good work.

More footage
Thanks for the info Lynn.
Impregnate it with what though........any suggestions??  One of the problems I had was finding brass fittings suitable and more importantly small enough to do the job. Tested the original wrapped in elec tape by feeding the grease through with a grease gun. This obviously applied pressure and the tape held. I do realise over time the tape will lose its adhesive quality but it'll have to make do for the time being. Appreciate all the help from everyone.

Pregnant tape.....
To properly impregnate the canvas tape you could use "creosote".... good luck finding some these days of environmental concerns... or "pine tar" which is used on the old wooden cross country skis..... again hardly what you would expect to find in a friendly Aussie hardware store......
OK... so what else is there.... that will be readily absorbed by the canvas.... not run and leave a mess at high temp...... stay soft and pliable.... and will last for at least 25 years....??? Any way of diluting silicone sealer to a semi liquid for the canvas to fully absorbe..? I intend to use a flexible sticky rubber tape similar to what is used in windshield installations.... as we have serious rust potential here in salty Canada.... Suggestions welcomed... Boob
