Thanks :)

He isn't as tidy as I'd like him to be tho, in a year or so, I'm gonna take him off the road and make him perfect, when he stops being my daily :)

on the other side of the road is dense with trees, if she didnt catch it first :s

i cant say anything as the time before i drove the road i lost the back end of Noddy, I caught it tho, 10" wheels the sidewalls are so large, its very forgiving even when right on the edge of their grip, and beond it!

So................ over the Christmas period Noddy hasn't been used, and still today is being unused!

I changed the pot joint seals as a massive oil leak occurred, still seems to be leaking, i now think its from the gear selector???? is this a normal place to leak????????




I also fitted one of my Christmas presents.....

Minisport camber and tracking brackets!

However, on the drivers side, a bolt sheered. Its the furthest in so i plan to get him over the pit. Grind the captive nut off, and weld a new one in place!


I also managed to short the battery, so a fuse has gone so it wont start!


I just need to find the time to fix him :)

before tho, Noddy had about 1.5 degrees POSITIVE camber, and toed in about the same amount, it looked appauling, and i noticed that I am wearing the outside edge of my tyres out on the rear.

So I had to have them!!!!

Plus the back end would slide out a little to easily for my liking!
