Wasn't Enice ( think its spelt wrong) the copper who fancied daisy in the dukes of hazard. N

Roscoe P Coltrane and his dog flash, I think Cletus was the deputy.

Modified the new leg to allow the plastic arch liner to fit 8)

Also removed the drum stick and straightened it in the vice with the help of a scaffold tube, it is straight, somehow tho i must have caught the thread on the track rod end as the nut won't go back on, went to the parts place but they're shut on a Saturday (lazy fekers :-)).

Was going to buy 1 but it is nearly new :roll:

Don't have 1:-( i normally undo the nut most way then hit that to undo the threaded shaft but I've been angry of late and probably hit it directly which seems to have squashed the second thread, to my cost :-(

Ordered a new fai 1 for 13.95 :-)
Mine was a bit wobbly in the knuckle, 4900 miles? Yeh must have been doing bloody Avon calling :?

On a positive note i climbed in the back of the van to look on top of the shelf for any loose nuts and bolts and did you know that hilti make their own haribos? :lol: didn't take a picture but i have a packet of them :-)
Not sure I'll eat them tho probably got pcp in for indoctrination purposes.......... you will buy hilti stuffs! :mrgreen:
