Re: Austin A35 Project
Over the past few days I've drifted the old bearings and seals out of the rear hubs, cleaned them thoroughly and give them a coat of paint on the outside. New bearings and tab washers arrived a couple of days ago, to go with the seals and gaskets I've had in the spare box for a while, so I'll be reb...

I found my 206 (and my daughter's slightly older 206CC) n...

Re: New mini....
My daughter has the convertible (2010 model) but it has run flat tyres/rims which can feel very harsh on our awful roads.

Re: Austin A35 Project
I'm needing something to clean the caked on grease covering my jcb.. do you think jizer would help? I've got a steam cleaner which is pretty good but this stuff has set like concrete...

First up was to pull the halfshafts and mark them L & R (these aren't going back as I have a couple of sets of Spridget halfshafts which are hardened) Largest socket I has was 36mm ... so ... used a large adjustable wrench...

Re: Austin A35 Project
Pair of new seals arrived today and have been fitted to the idler and steering box. I rebuilt the idler and filled it with EP75/80 and it's now standing upright to see if the oil weeps past the seal. It should be EP90 but it what was in the garage, and I assumed if the thinner stuff stays put, EP90 ...
