Good work,

Would be fun to see how many revolutions the old tyre can do before it lets go !!!

Greg

Great stuff Neil,

Saved some work and some dollars.

Greg

Little problems,

Keep going you’re so close it’s not worth turning back now.
I’m really keen to hear this rumble.

Greg

Wow,

Great write up and yes very interesting.
The only problem is that most engineers these days are quite educated with the rules and most wont budge or use interpretation unless you are very good at convincing them.
The quote here will stop most of the engineers in their tracks.

Unfortunate Neil,

Your box damage come from the broken oil cooler on your last outing ?

Just a bit of wisdom here, if you change the box then dont forget the cooler, replace or flush it out under high pressure.

The grit can settle or even wedge itself in the cooling tubes and come out later ...

Fraud XP also fits very well if you require a bit of room around a larger pumkin diff.
