Default Some progress

Doesnt look like much - but brother! time just slips away... getting there though.

Sag on the RHF had been remedied Definitely was the springs. Replacement springs from Max's pulled apart cleaned then repacked, blasted and painted. Replaced the shackle bushes, old ones badly flogged out.

Below photo's show before and after.

Four rims - removed ancient D&D tyres (I did one, which took me a week) then took the other three to tyre dealer who had them off in half an hour and charged me 20 bucks.

There is no point being a tight arse when doing one of these trucks.

Fitted new tyres - these are the ones Bob Carrier and Harry Moon put me onto from Wallace Wade. Thanks again Jack for organisiing the logistics.

Popped on the rims beautifully!!!

Anyway - some pictures
