stuck

Impressive piece of kit that.

I'd check the entire loom with a meter and visually but yes you may get away with. It. Yes you can drive the truck without using the glow plugs, put the old plu back in though and obviously ensure the elective are safe before you do.

Bish, If you are struggling I could give you a lift on Saturday if that's any good? Mick.

Superb, PM sent

I just love the chequer plate on the bulkhead

Gents, Long shot this but I was wondering if anybody has a dimensioned drawing of a P38 chassis? I want to build my next CCV truck, never heard of anybody using a P38' probably a reason for that... Thanks, Mick.

Superb, Thanks very much gents. Gary cheers for the pictures

All sorted. Thanks for the help chaps.

Thanks Gents, With the flexy clamped the pedal is solid so looks like the issue is slave cylinder. Fitted a brand new one so is it likely I have done something wrong or bought a dodgy cylinder? I set the rod length on the master cylinder but there didn't seem anything to adjust on the slave, just slid it on to the push rod and bolted it up. Bleed nipple is at the top.

Any suggestions please gents?

Hi all, Brake fluid, very expensive stuff that is only performing a very basic hydraulic function. Can hydraulic oil be substituted? I only ask because I have access to 100's of gallons of hydraulic oil and don't like paying £8 for a little bottle of brake fluid!

Cheers Gent's, managed to get it back together. Still got a problem though New master cylinder, new slave cylinder but still no clutch, realy raining me off now. Strange thing is with the Gunson Easi bleed connected the clutch works perfectly, soon as I disconnect it though, no bloody clutch! Can't be air in the system, I've put over a litre of fluid through the damn thing! Any ideas please because I've had enough.

Gents, Just taken my clutch slave cylinder off to replace it and the pushrod and clip have dropped out as well. Is there any way of resecuring the pushrod to the clutch release arm or is it box out time? Mick.

Cheers for that, I have never bought pattern parts and never will, have tried the online suppliers I know of but can't find cylinders. Are my only options sh!tpart or main stealer?!

Gents, Had an issue with my clutch today (110 TD5) My clutch has always been at the top of the pedal but as I joined the motorway and changed gear the bite point was suddenly at the bottom. Problem got progressively worse until I couldn't get her out of gear and she was trying to go forwards even with the clutch fully depressed. Limped home in third and found that the clutch master cylinder was empty but no signs of a leak, have topped it up and bled the system and I can now select gears but the bite point is still right at the bottom so somethings not right. My guess is master cylinder but would appreciate opinions before I start ripping things apart. Thanks in advance, Mick.

And of course the 110 is a better truck ...

Cheers Ralph.

Doh! Sorry it's the Borg Warner.

Bloody hell! Suggest you put a quid on the lottery tonight! That could have been so nasty as I'm sure you are aware,

Gents, Can anybody post a diagram of the sealing arrangement on the output of the transfer box (flange for rear prop) please? Thanks, Mick.

I have a twin mondeo fan on my CCV truck, was recommended to me by Bowie69 Works a treat and cost less than a tenner from flea bay Takes around 30 amps though...

Hi all, Just wondering if anybody has any experience of the Gwyn Lewis weld on diff protectors (the type that welds to the axle tubes)? Picture of them fitted would be much appreciated. Mick.

Once again, thanks Ralph.

Gents, Forgive my ignorance but will a truck cab from a series or early Defender fit my 110 TD5 commercial? Ta, Mick.

Aw bless, sounds like the beginning of a beautiful relationship
