Hmmmmm
long time since last update :shock:
Well I have given the DC away and started with the buggy (ps hendriks I have three rims for you if you are interested)
Got the pan from vuyo (thanks vuyo) have managed to shorten it and believe it or not it fits, the measurements were correct
Have striped and cleaned the front suspension and gearbox now only have to decide on what colour.

I dont have any pics of the process as my youngest son lay clain to the batteries for my camera and I have not managed to replace them as yet
I will be asking for the help of the kindness of the members to post my pics when I have them :shock:
