Ah, good to be back after a week in the Sun,

and reading the "Bold" Northener has finally got it finished and roadworthy

Post Wed Apr 20, 2011 8:50 pm

Cheers Rav, I think.

M/C has failed i think. Clutch has failed. B4stard car.

I will look at it soon as i am at York next week. Things are fooking mental up here so it will have to wait.

Post Wed Apr 20, 2011 10:18 pm

Did you use the origional M20 slave????
I think me is in the same boat, it needs changing as of yesterday

Post Wed Apr 20, 2011 10:27 pm

No new M50 slave to match the box mate. The car had only done 70k pre conversion. I thought the M/C would be ok. I will start there. I have a braided clutch line to fit anyway.

Post Wed Apr 20, 2011 10:29 pm

I'll be ordering a new M/C too next week for mine

Post Wed Apr 20, 2011 10:32 pm

MC is a 10 minute job , you fairies !

Post Wed Apr 20, 2011 10:34 pm

M/C and slaves should be done in pairs so i've been told?!

Post Wed Apr 20, 2011 10:36 pm

they usually fail in pairs one after the other ect,

the slave on my van has failed today, b'stard box has to come out it's part of the clutch bearing

Post Wed Apr 20, 2011 10:40 pm

Doing them both together, i've been told the same.

Post Wed Apr 20, 2011 10:42 pm

My slave is new and the chariot in question has done less that 400 miles.

Steve next time you have 10 mins spare you could pic up that door pod

Post Fri Jun 10, 2011 11:08 pm

Hows this thing doing Dezmondo?

Post Fri Jun 10, 2011 11:14 pm

I was looking through this thread today mate.

The car has not turned a wheel for about 2 months

It needs a clutch M/C which i have sat in my van

I have real family problems atm, this means i have work issues too, as i work in the family business. I have no spare time at all atm.

I have promised myself it will be sorted this weekend. That being said i am out on the p1ss Saturday night

A proper update soon i promise

Being under the car it doubles as a shelter (ish)

It would do my nut in not being able to drive it.

Post Mon Jun 13, 2011 3:16 pm

Nice choice Dezzy

Post Mon Jun 13, 2011 3:57 pm

I have till wednesday before lunch to decide. They are made in batch's for rimstyle and silver isnt a standard colour. They can get a set done for me.

They will look like these

I think they will look the nuts on my turd

Post Mon Jun 13, 2011 4:37 pm

Dezzy, I might know someone who is selling a very good set mate, if you are thinking of getting a set.
