  1. Already considering making some..... Regards Stephen
  2. Had a bit play with tyre pressures to see how much more flexible these tyres are over the swampers 20psi 10psi Zero psi so way more flexible than the swampers regards Stephen
  3. You had best or you will not hear the last of it from me....... .A good mornings work should do, especially with those facilities.. Regards Stephen
  4. What about 16mm diameter roll pins https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/303493875071?itmmeta=01HVY2BW3TYES6ZSF1ZQ59FKJJ&hash=item46a9a5057f:g:XPgAAOSw6WleTj2O&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8ET%2FLN9rFFQ83CgMocVt%2B6vHzf%2Fer%2FU4zVtkNa174BL1FT1aG%2Fq7ih9g1OeCkUuZr%2BTMUpw4yeOuO2sKH%2FPdoOVWjQXzxMHxed7HNidY%2Fzzqf7%2F7CzGzBXdzemM2agTK3BjpP22gy3ILlxDYaTRmBlzSYffqZAAe6quJTrmApwe%2F3mzoRII6KZDZW8JdgPbLhMUYF1W3fKE0ftiaNKY5H6psgIFsV8JNcwyJVbNb8c8sje5l%2FTv0j5ouxITDwoT20BtKIDk9ef%2BEJt%2BPM2lsZkBFlyJamxmizRA5OFzmhAqQTJatD7t2frWGr04W%2FXGsng%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR4LCr8LfYw Regards Stephen
  5. Oh and curiosity got the better of me, 20 mins later Centre has deformed due to assistance of a BFH not worried about it as I reckon I'm going to have to fab up some new centre's anyway Regards Stephen
  6. Good news for me regarding tyres, I can deform them by leaning on them so should have plenty of flexibility when getting used in anger. Should mention I had let air out of the tyre, could not do the above with rhe swampers Regards Stephen
  7. I hope your currently in the process of starting a revival thread on the above.... regards Stephen
  8. The sticky trep which is the spare in the group of tyres I've just bought has a noticeably soft tread, reminds me of Michelin X1 tyres I used to use on my trials bike years ago. I did'nt realise how much of a difference this would make. The realisation came when I started to load tyres, I did this by rolling them up to the ball on the tow hitch and then rolled the tyre up and in, the sticky did not slip yet the other tyres did and i had to alter my position on the tyre and apply some additional pressure to wheel it into the car. I will eventually get 3 more stickys Regards Stephen
  9. He showed me the inside of the back of his van and .................................. lol Regards Stephen
  10. Won't work, angle of wheel centres will catch brake calipers, that was my first check.. Regards Stephen
  11. Drop me a message if you need dimensions Regards Stephen
  12. @dangererous doug next time your shed dwelling, see if you can get some measurements on how long the shafts need to be just I don't see any value in cutting 100mm+ spline lengths when they are not required, mainly for the diff lock shafts. Ta very much Regards Stephen
  13. That really is exquisite Regards Stephen
  14. Whatever way I decide I will sort it...... That's put my money where my mouth is.........oops Regards Stephen
  15. I have two plans of attack up my sleeve... 1st, dismantle one rim and see how far I can push things 2nd, knock up some flat plate inners on the lathe or mill using rotary table Regards Stephen
  16. Your better off without it at the moment, my work.ethic has been rubbish this year so far... Regards Stephen
  17. I like the thought process......... However there is nothing on a mog rim I can use, wrong bolt pattern 20" rim Regards Stephen
  18. Sussed it.... Don't know why I didn't think of it before !!! It occurred to me that @landroversforever is putting spacers on his wheels to sort things out. So I reckon if I put spacers on the outside that will push the wheel in.........sorted !!!! Regards Stephen
  19. well !!! If he had had a 5yr mog axle work out he would be stronger now wouldn't he.... Pretty sure my chihuahua's could manage a landrover axle........... Or a wee bolt..........lol Regards Stephen
  20. I do give myself some work............ Had a quick measure up this morning, it there present form the treps and rims are going to stick out 6" either side, increasing my carefully fabricated width by 12" in total. ........that will not do..... Tyres are going to have to come off and wheel centres removed and repositioned, I don't think I will get these as inboard as previous ones, however that doesn't really matter as they will be for off road use only do the cheeky/ taking the p%%s scale will not be required Regards Stephen
  21. Also good to meet yourself and the 101 Regards Stephen
  22. For clarity.......there was definitely a hint of Audi monster truck madness lurking around in deepest darkest Somerset......lol Regards Stephen
