Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

What a freaking day!!

Stripped his engine and started to fit the new box, turns out its a "bitza" lump, being a '79 there should have been an A series box, but Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

An A+ had been fitted, I had a recon earlier box.............DOH

Once i'd finished stropping I remembered that I had Poos old engine up the side of the garage, I could have the transfer/primary/casing off that and make it fit.

Phew, that was a bullet dodged.

So cleaned it up, fitted a new motion shaft brg and all good. On the old box there was a collapsed bearing, hence the noise.

Grrr!!!

I've got...

-7.5 disc conversion
-A set of hubs t refurb(new ball joints+bearing)

The engine is still in bits as well!!

I want to bring him to Bingley so I'd better get a move on!!!
