With all the events coming up, I'd get the ol girl going first so I have something to cruise in until the rumbler is ready.

It may start to feel a little unloved otherwise

about the brakes matt,are you changing to the alloy type calliper?If so i dont recommend them.I ran them on the front of mine and on the way to work one night one of them snaped,i lost all brakes untill the calliper got cought in my wheel which put the steering on full lock towards a bus stop missing it marginly.what a night.however if your not going alloy lets never speak of this again.

Mate, you are the second person to mention that to me in the last month. Truth is, I do have fully rebuilt alloy callipers on the blue van and about to rebuild some cast iron ones for the other van. That bus stop story send shivers down my spine...cant think of anything worse than not being in control...

Sounds like good safety advice there CaptainBill.

Cast iron calipers seem like the safer way to go.
