TIME FOR AN UPDATE

Life's been a bit busy lately and I've been slack on posting updates on Forrest.  Work has still been going on behind the scenes though. 

Garry, with some help from his brother Richard, has continued to strip all the sundry bits from the chassis which is now bare.  The gear box has been comfortably resting on the shed floor while other parts were removed and as you can see, the gear box mounts are totally stuffed.

This rear outrigger is a bit bend and will be replaced.

The front rail of the chassis will be repaired.

Along with the other areas of the chassis that need repairs and dodgy patchwork redone.

All the new pieces created with the CAD drawing program have been fabricated and just need to be welded in place.

With some help from timnz on the AULRO forum Garry was able to get some information for making a Steering Relay Remover thingy out of some old bits of steel he's had laying around for years it seems.  Check out the name on the bit of steel angle.  BHP Co Ltd. 

Will post another photo of the patented thingy in action.

He also treated himself to an early Father's Day/birthday present.  Hmmm, seems the presents are never ending for this birthday year.  Hope I find some good uses for it too, haha.

The chassis pushed outside for another clean.
