Ferret Fluid Flywheel rebuild

[Robin Craig]

Apologies for not posting for a bit.

We have surveyed the vehicle and received direction and the scope of the work has widened.

The fluid flywheel is back together and awaiting the threaded plug so we can pressure test it.

We have ordered 4 new flexible brake lines and have started cleaning up other items, one of the most critical is the bevel box breathers. Such a small item but such a massive implication if it doesn't function.

The rear vertical armour was missing some of the cage nuts and some were damaged beyond repair so we have replaced a bunch. I welded them in using a special stainless / mild steel stick electrode that works nicely. Not exactly the same but superior manufacture / function so I am ok with that.

The vehicle will be a good runner once we have gone through all the systems.

The fuel tank has gone out for cleaning and we are working on the new auxiliary tank and connection.
