This would be quite simple to make, would you be able to do me some sketchs of the individual parts with sizes on? probably be able to make that in a day.

send me the pics while im on a roll .. you help a lot of people on here dave so if it can be done how does free sound

so you're concentrating on the bolt removal and not the bit that pushes the arms out of the housing? fair play to you, you could make a killing on this.. I'd be interested to know if they have a patent gonna try and make it do the same, still have to add the bits that push the arms out and the bit ...

Glad you sorted it. I found out the same way as you ...I asked on here ;)

Just a quick update main body part machined.

I had this... the fuse for this is behind the panel in which the headlight switch is in. to remove the switch you just push the knob in and turn it, not sure which way .then remove the panel. the fuse is well tucked away and a bit of a job to get out.

yep gonna take some pics as its made.... took wheel off today to take some measurments and gave it all a good clean up. http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu94/hfturbo2000/b.jpg http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu94/hfturbo2000/a.jpg When it comes to replacing the bushes in the arms do you have to...

Iv just been washing the car and was drying inside the doors jambs and I could not see the interior light switch anyone know where its located?

:grin: lol the main blocks rough machined and the cut outs where it fits over the ball joints are done gonna take my wheel off in the morning and check the fit and carry on when im back in work next week. Still need to make the screw barrel and cap nut that pushs the pins, this will have to be a fin...

The block for the main body is on the machining centre as I write this

Thanks, they do look smart, might get back to you if I may when I do them.

Well done simon... I like my car standard too and just trying to get it as good as I can . I think this can be just as rewarding as modifying them, but as Bobman once said to me......... "grinder, like we always say on here modded or not it doesnt matter, its the enjoyment that we all get out o...

Like to do the rear screens on mine, where do the cables run?

If you watch the vid it pushes the bolt out, then if there tight pushes up the swivels.

Whilst browsing the net in a quiet moment at work today I come across this and thought about making one.It would be fairly straightforward to machine up,we could then loan it out to members.The link shows the tool in use.Has anyone had any experience of this tool and its effectivness. http://i637.ph...

Thanks for the replys, think I shall just "remind" them that its 4 wheel drive before I hand it over..the people in the place I shall take it to seem pretty switched on so im sure it will be fine.

I hope so .... and that they dont decide to do the brake test 1st... maybe im just paranoid

Got my MOT coming up at the end of may,do all MOt stations do 4 wheel drive and is it worth warning them that it is, because I would be mortified if they wrecked the transmision.
Thanks
