done all i think is needed

[fudge]

well as a few of you will know i have a new fronty.
but it has been off the road for a few years.
so i got it and done all the work(nearly all last week)
and it is now booked in for an mot today at 3...

but even this could be fun since i have got a big lift on it (about 6") and they dont know if they can lift it
so will know later if they can. and if it passess... i hope it does

[justdan]

Good luck buddy , I feel your pain

[geeks]

Fingers crossed!

[drinksoptional]

better hope the mot person isnt a shortie or it might fail on door handle too high

[fudge]

Well i hope tgey arnt short too...
as i am now waiting for half past so i can bounce down there...

[geeks]

[carlisletiger]

he must be having too much fun driving round in his monster truck to bother with us low-riders now

[fudge]

and please note people i have been getting the parts i need and storing my fronty since the end of test

no it failed on 8 points

they were
offside rear brake pipe leaking
offdise front brake pipe corroded
nearside rear brake pipe kinked
nearside front (track rod) steering locking device missing
(steering box) steering locking device missing
(idle arm) steering locking device missing
exhaust leaking
and nearside front brake caliper bolt missing *dangerous*


so i have 2 new brake lines made up. and gotten a few packs of split pins
gotten a new exhaust gasket since it was missing.
and will "borrow" a bolt of a fronty i know.
so will be done this week and retested

but there is some fun bits on here
some of the advisorys are funny..
vehicle has body modifications ....
rear seats and belts removed....
bar close to swept area ....

[Drift]

Doesnt sound too bad at all considering

[fudge]

tbh it isnt.. it could have been worse..
so tomorrow to fix it and then retest on wednesday

There has been very rare harsh mots fails Apart from the sills they seem to do well an get minor items

[fudge]

and she has now passed

and i found out today it has been offthe road since 2007 (last mot)
and covered a grand 1k miles

[Mr Mud]

RESULT time for a few

[RatCav]

My MOT station doesn't bother trying to get mine on a ramp. They drive it over the pit they use for stretched limousine's and high top vans. Glad she passed.

[Dannyboy]

Right, as its not been done..............

[fudge]

well there is no pics of my new truck untill i have finished all the mods and work

[Wilberforce]

But will we still be able to recognise it under all the lights and Mil-spec steel ?

I thought you said it was already modded anyhow. ..
