  1. Wow. Not jealous at all! What a fantastic experience that must have been.
  2. My Verniers have dials. Super easy to read but they are perhaps a little more fragile than a simple Vernier scale. (touch wood, not broken one yet!)
  3. Fantastic piece of creative design and fabrication! Ummm, has anyone assessed the gate or gatepost though.... you know.... your reputation does precede you and gravity takes no prisoners!
  4. Bite the bullet and buy a GAP IID tool. L322 ownership is soooo much easier with one! Not cheap, but they are exceptionally good.
  5. I think we all know the answer to that question Ian!🤣
  6. So tonight was meant to be a quick hour to connect the in tank pump lines up, pop the tank back in place and purge the system, hopefully followed by an engine start. What actually happend was I fought the first (black) connector for 40 mins until I finally got it to seat, then spent the next 50 trying to get the blue one in only to completely muller one of the yellow o rings that should sit in the female half of the joint but for some reason had remained on the male part when I disassembled the connection. So I now have a disabled car and have failed completely to find said o ring on the web. Does anyone know a part number or have an old assembly under a bench they could look at please?
  7. My 200TDi auto 90 with a 1.2 also struggled on hills so can understand the OP's problem. As others have said, changing a transfer case is not hard if you have a helper.
  8. Disclaimer - I am definitely not an auto electrician.... ......but on my multimeter that is the continuity test position so would suggest there is a degree of resistance in that circuit? Perhaps? Maybeeeee? (see disclaimer!)
  9. The same rack that snaps off mounting bolts you mean? Hmmm.... That said, interesting read and refreshing for the (apparent) openness.
  10. I'm not sure 1,100Hp is enough for me, so I'm out.
  11. Bu Ashcroft transmissions says they can no longer supply LT77's as key components are no longer available. Also, rally drivers kill everything, even themselves sometimes!
  12. Left in a skip full of mud by the looks of it!
  13. @Nonimouse should be able to offer some advice or @JST often has preloved motors up for grabs...
  14. Not quite - chisel if you're holding one end, hammer if you're holding the other!
  15. Ended up drilling about a million spot welds out as you said @Snagger plus grinding off 4 proper rivets. Then bending the corner races out the way and it came out. No chance of it coming out in one piece with the body on and a complete chassis though. The cross member being temporarily absent has made this a relatively straightforward job.
