  1. Currently replacing the UJ's on the half shafts as well as the rear brake cylinders and shoes and currently contemplating the prop shaft UJ's next. Better to be safe than sorry...
  2. Hi Tim, What sort of assistance is required? I am happy to lend a hand however would need to be gone before 18:00 if possible, I have a prior arrangement to attend to.
  3. Hello, the clock in my 2500 saloon appears to have stopped working, it makes all the noises and is correct at least twice a day. I know it's trivial but for me it's more of a... it's there and therefore should work, so I am looking to get it working or replaced. Would anyone have a spare clock that possibly works but you have no use for it so it is currently collecting dust in the depths of your inventories? Failing that would anyone be able to point me in the right direction so as to find out how to carry out repairs on the unit myself? Thank you
  4. Is card accepted these days or is cash preferred. If so please could you point me in the right direction for prices so I can forward this to my co driver. Thank you
  5. I have a set of RBRR stickers on highway grade magnetic sheet I can put on the car for the full effect
  6. The plan is to arrive at 10:00 on the Friday, let me know if you would like to use Eric the project car on the stand.
  7. I'm there all weekend with Eric McTriumph, my mk2 saloon
  8. With the help of my father in law and my wifes awe inspiring ability to fabricate I have the passenger side sills refreshed, nice new steel, primered up... might need a little tidy up and a lick of paint now. Drivers side is next...
  9. This is what I have bought for my gearbox, it comes highly recommended by upstanding members of the Triumph world.
  10. It could be bearings in the diff having worn down a bit, when last (to your knowledge) was the diff rebuilt?
  11. I had horrible vibrations on my saloon, from 60mph and up it felt as though the car had magically transformed into one of those massage chairs found at the odd motorway service station. I noticed at night the vibrations were cylindrical as headlights from following cars were spinning in a small oval shape. After swapping the prop shaft, checking all UJ's and still having the same problems I bit the bullet and had a spare diff rebuilt. Vibrations gone, now I can hear the layshaft bearings instead... I would try the diff rebuild route and you should hopefully notice a difference.
  12. Eric is going to have some bodywork done, I have sills and front wings to do over the next two months under the guidance of Richard Brake. My saloon will look like a patchwork car for the RBRR, Pimento with red oxide primer. Rebuilt diff ready to go in, standard 3:45. I also have a fuel light that isn't going out even with a full tank and want to have hazard lights just in case. Copious amounts of stickers ready to go on. Anything to bring a smile to tired faces in the early hours.
