Nice one!
So how long before it gets a lift, offroad modded gearbox, etc etc and takes over touring duties (a little more comfy)?

Yeah I used to get those too, using the actual Gumtree app on my iphone (not the browser). Recently moved into an Android phone a few weeks ago and haven't noticed any yet (again, using the App) and haven't noticed any yet but haven't use it a lot recently. Don't believe it's an infection on the dev...

Yeah I'd suspect some bastard doing that to either try and steal your wheel (although maybe unlikely if you didn't find your car on bricks in the morning). Maybe attempted murder or just kids playing a joke. I had the same thing happen once. I'd had an old RX-7 wreck (no motor) sitting out the front...

Hi Scott, Yeah I completed the first placeholder back in Feb and didn't bother to put a new post in here to show up in people's "new posts". Figured it'd best contain a bit more information. I'd forgotten how long it takes to bash these posts out especially when there are lots of photos that need re...

Time to sort out the custom clutch pedal to work with the Hydraulic master cylinder. I've made two of these before. One by welding a bit of metal on as a bracket, another I bolted on a bit of box section. This time I wanted it to be really strong so I chopped up an actual Liberty clutch pedal to use...

http://i.imgur.com/PSb8xAJ.jpg?1 Top hose driver's side. This one I had a bend done on the radiator pipe itself due to clearance issues, this worked well. http://i.imgur.com/ACQeNcV.jpg?1 Bottom hose (it's on the passenger side). This was the ONLY way I could get it to work. It's a 90 degree bend s...

http://i.imgur.com/aJdvVKN.jpg?1 After a lot of playing around with clearances I decided on mounting two thermo fans between the radiator and the engine. This is really the best place for them. This way the fans themselves don't block airflow. This took ages to get right, and the clearance is reall...

http://i.imgur.com/MEBSS1D.jpg?1 Next I had to organise some sort of radiator. I had planned to use the EZ30 stock Liberty radiator but unfortunately upon looking at the clearance, this was not going to work. At the driver's side, the huge "lump" in the EZ30 timing cover protrudes right into where ...

Back to the rust repairs in the spare wheel well. Be prepared for some of the worst welding you've ever seen, but hey, it was functional and did the trick. All holes were covered up with patches of metal and welds. Plenty of grinding and some filling with fibreglass just to get a smoother finish and...

interesting to look at the Google trends:

There is a thin metal cover at the bottom of the bellhousing to close the gap between the bellhousing and engine, and also provides a good inspection gap to see the flywheel. Sometimes this can get bent up very slightly, just enough to rub against the flywheel ringgear and make grinding noises.

Checked out the tailshaft and all CV joints?

Hey I was wondering if you might have typed up a build thread with details on the caravan you've built? I'm quite interested in this type of thing

Ouch that's a tough decision. I guess the caravan is more important than the trike! If it were me and I'd built the two projects, I know which one I'd be compromising to let go (not the trike) but that's just me. I'd do a caravan again with lighter weight somehow, or more of a camper-trailer type se...

Looking forward to the TR
