Default Thanks for a wonderful evening.....

Just took the time to look from A to Z.....fantastic....... informative and very motivating......

Wonder if all the readers/viewers realize the time and effort needed to stop what you are so involved in.... take a picture...record measurements.... and move on to the next step....... and then the evening of posting, writing, editing, etc....phew......

Your site is a treasure chest of priceless information......

Thank you.

Bob

Hi Phil in the land of Oz, Rob and Bob


Phil I been enjoying your post on the HUW always great to know another of the family has been restored. Hope you enjoy driving yours as much as I've enjoyed driving my BEAST.

Rob- You notice the lean no it really does lean toward the drivers side, about 1" difference distance frame to ground. Always has had the lean, never have been able to track the cause other than weight of the vehicle not being centered. I even tried to trim the flight level by using the fuel in the right tank first which should be get rid of 80 or so pounds.

One of the first things I checked when I got the body of was did the chassis sit level? Yes. The springs in the at rest disassembled height are almost identical.

Bob- Creating the web site just gives me a way of sharing what I've found over the years, kind of a repayment or pay it forward to all the people from all over the world who shared information about CMPs me when I was getting started. People may not realize how much work goes into a site like MLU or into my site. But when I look at the visitor statistics for my site I get a understanding of what people are getting out of my site. Couple of the statistics I look out is length of visit, number of pages visited, images visited etc. Recently had a visitor from Israel spent 8 hours and looked at virtually every page and every image.

My thanks to everyone who takes time visit the tread and hope you enjoy it. I just expanded the title of this thread curious to see if that helps people find information on HUP overhaul.

Cheers Phil
