    Took me 3hrs to do a master and slave today. Its not a nice job at all. I ended up up getting a wrecking bar on the master just to get to the rear nut!!

    Get a double skin, they're a lot more rigid and will hold their shape a lot better. Mine keeps flexing and not sealing. I'm not wanting to put pins on it or any external locking mechanism. Ah well, was only a tenner.

Low on petrol + idiot drivers + diversions to backroads where deer run out + thin brakes + late night driving = mini roulette! Glad that drive is over and done with!

    I love it all the while I'm building it and bolting new shiny parts on etc. but then I hate it at the end of the month when my bank balance comes through the door.
