Default Slower than liked progress

I haven't been doing as much as I hoped on the Humber, or my Land Rover Mk8 FFR, due to a few factors.


I have however got my Humber charging again with a take-off Genny Panel from Clive.


Also I have replaced the down-pipe and fitted a new silencer, so need to photo those.


I have been working on the gearbox and side compressor recently whilst sorting out the lack of brakes!


Leading to a compressor and gearbox full of awful crud..... Lots of rinsing out was needed.....


Overhauled two master cylinders now and also refurbed the clutch header reservoir that I believe was originally black and then painted beige, so if anyone knows the correct colour in the cab area then please let me know.

Default Brakes Overhaul

As part of the work on the braking system I had to have this manufactured for me. Nice job done by an engineer that makes gearboxes for Rolls Royce as one of his contracts......





I will be able to re-assemble the hubs without damaging the oil seals or inner bearing

Lovely to see it wrapped in oiled paper......

I hope this is of use to Humber owners.

Its the CAD drawing I produced for the machinist from info from Clive and Richard on HMVF forum.
