    Managed to get a set of manual hub locks off a local to replace my dodgy auto hubs...off a tojo owner at that...secret closet Nissan lubber me thinks...



    One was seized and the other had lost the ball out of the locking yoke. Salvaged a bearing ball out of an old bike that matched existing and had to grind and file down the center toggle and circlip to get it to turn smooth...must have sustained some damage as the circlip was binding hard with the toggle not allowing it to turn.



    Bit of filing, grinding, destroying bike parts, cleaning and careful reasembly and I got my front end turning again...

    Down to the wire last week as one of the recon hubs had a crack but was able to get another pair to rebuild...

    Took the rig out on the weekend to catch up with news from Perths northern beaches...ran well no more clunking and crunching...no more clicky hubs...

    Simple Simon says that will do.

    Well I been thinking the clutch has been a little heavy since I have had the GQ so I spent some $$ on some spares.
    2 new vacuum boosters...one for the clutch and one for me Brakes...

    Ended up off work for the second time this month...bloody lung infection this time round...

    Anyways...

    Pulled the old clutch boosters out tday and replaced it...ended up just using silicone to seal the firewall from the elements.

    Seems I have been driving with a faulty clutch booster...the clutch is almost non-existent under foot now...

    This is going to need a bit of getting used to...
    Have to sort the brake boosters next.

    Looks like there is a bit of ruff stuff emerging from the joint above the booster as well that needs a scrub, treatment and re dress too...fun fun fun. What more can you want from an old bucket of bolts...

    Been having trouble with the old TJM indicator lights so I gave em the flick...
    Found some suitable LED replacements but they needed to be inset for a bit of protection.
    Found a sheet of left over ally checker plate in the work ute and some rubber trim so I decided to make up some panels that would fit the new lights.
    I think they came up alright...a bit shiny but it will do...now After looking at it for a while, I may have to line the center of the bar as well to match...lol
    Also.may have noticed I chopped the hoops and scrubs off the bar...something a bit different...one of these days I will be able to get a custom bar made up how I want to replace it...or I may just make one.
    Will be mounting rock lights on the corners one of these days...
    Well thats another cheap as chips mod completed...savings will be spent on beer and fuel.

    Poor girl hasn't seen the tracks since March...been giving her a run every week but last week I noticed some clean areas on the fromt pumpkin...

    Got down and had a look around...looks like a leak from the side of the fuel pump...
    The lil inspection plate on the side is letting the fuel out...

    Seems to be a common thing around the traps...anyone done the repair? As far as my knowledge bends I need to remove the small plate and replace an O-ring behind it...
    Any other info would be a plus...

    Cheers
