Snail's pace Blitz rebuild

[Keith Webb]

This was a "Truck, 3-ton Machinery" with engine number listed as 3G7700F which is one digit less than normal, perhaps a clerical error. Sold back to Ford.

This would explain the absence of bolt holes for the spare carrier and tool box...

I'm dirty, my fingers are aching and I came close to cutting a vein when my drill got caught in my glove and quickly twisted up. Must have been a good day in the shed.
It's snail's pace but it is progressing.

Ryan where are the pictures? When I was at school back in the dark ages it was drummed into us, no gloves near any rotating tool.

No pics of the near miss rob, just some bruising.
I was out in the shed again today, more work on the brakes. Using nos shoes to replace the buggered ones, one needed some slight mods for the handbrake holes. These were the ones I bought in nar nar goon some years ago.
Going to replace the wheel bearings front drivers side. Anyone have the part numbers at hand? Timken parts. I'm just not totally happy with their free play so will put new ones in.

Ryan,

Somewhere here on MLU, there is an excel spreadsheet entitled something like 'modern part numbers for CMPs'.

I'll see if I can find it & let you know.
