Frank,
If the REGT needs brake parts, I have sources in the U.K that have all sorts of parts, that weren't butchered by the old team leader........ but the funds are NPF right?
As for the batteries, I put a master switch/ battery cut off so they wouldn't drain. It could also be a voltage regulator problem, or even a bad ground. Did the Mk 1 have a generator or alternator? I can't seem to remember.
Any how, keep your head down, and the Stab on.

Not really. They seem to be holding up well so far. Mind you if we do require them we'll have to purchase them. The funds are from the Guild.

The batteries will still drain even with the master switch mod which we did a while ago. It seems to be draining from either the genny or the wiring harness....but that's another story for another thread.

Tomorrow a few of us from the Team are going in and doing a full assessment on the Stag as well as taking a shyte load of pics for reference material.

While we're at it the Ferret will be put on the charger and given a once over. This is in preparation for Leliefontein.
