Time for an update ;D
Been in between jobs work wise, so black sheep has been put on
the back burner, Found out pretty quickly that persuing a new
career wasn't the best move, and ended up back at my old work
after about a month.
That's enough excuses now, On with the pictures;
New door seals fitted, Still have to do the drivers door I'll do
the tailgate if I have enough rubber seal left.

I've given up looking for the oil bath bracketry, for now I've
got this OMG TURBO+GAY hi-flow max power type effort going on,
untill a proper bracket comes out of the woodwork.

Before fitting the wings I took the rad out and had another
attempt at soldering the spigot for the top tank, so far - so
good.

With the wings fitted I did a bit of wiring, the arse end was a
right mess, burnt wires that'd been dangling about on the
muffler and just untidy shit, needed pulling out and starting
again.

Its as sweet as a nut, the gearbox is the best I've ever driven
in a series, as is the steering. :thumbs:
Oh, And every stud sealed with loctite, all mating surfaces
sealed with loctite sealant, It still leaks oil :toothless:
Cheers, Jack.

Very nice, my box similarly sealed every where has lasted about
two weeks before drooling EP90 down the side of the box! Seems
to be coming form the useless selector shaft seals.

Yep, your dead right on that one, crawled under it today and
could see the wet oily patch down from the selectors, also
coming from the selectors of the 4wd.
Fixed a couple of little problems, The speedo didn't work, flex
drive inner had slipped down and wasn't driving the speedo. Also
the fuel gauge was playing silly buggers, had to grab another as
the windings on the sender unit had worn through.
Was going to fit some mud flaps and started cleaning up the rear
cross member, went through a bit just behind one of the spring
hangers, be a bit of welding coming up.
Also fitted the spare wheel on the bonnet. Yet to sort some seat
squabs out.
Cheers, Jack.
