The brand is Sperex, but the labels and logos / images are almost indentical to Simoniz. Red VHT paint good for 700c

It's only been on a couple of days now so time will tell if it's gona last.

First up. All VHT paint it w*nk! Shud of got a stainless system.

Now my wife has her new range cooker and extortionatly expensive new kitchen. With all new appliances i am now allowed some cash.

So at the weekend the gear box came out and a new clutch went in. Spare gear box is away getting a refurb and a set of HD (that heavy duty not hi def, lol) transfer box mounts from dave at llama should be waiting at home.

I had wondered what the loud banging noise was. Turns out one transfer case mount wont hold it in place.

Got an advisory on the last mot for spring bushes too so hoping for custom springs to give it a wee lift early nxt year.

Other than that she's been running sweet.

No wonder the traffic took a while, defying gravity takes concentration.

Well it only took six hours transfer box is in on new mounts. Refurbed gear box in. Not sure if the clutch may need adjusting a bit more but i'll drive it a bit first.

What an absolute pain in the ********** it was to line up the gearbox though. I even took the effort to torque everything properly.

Not sure about the new transfer case mounts. I'll get some pics next week and show you the issues.

Sorry dave, not too impressed with them.
