    I found out last week mines broke and know idea how long its been like it
     
  6. Not really , but it is better ,yours realy on the m/c pushing the brake back up ,which in time will weaken it...

  11. The rear brake was harder than I thought cutting it out of the chassis ,plus the steering thing on the beam ,I had to cut and kinda turn upsidedown...(twice ;))

    I only had a couple of days , been digging up a foss septic between showers...:D

  14. The brake and clutch are also in the wrong place...:rolleyes:

    I did think I could copy the rhd onto the left....Would'nt mind I drive a lhd every day and did'nt know where the accelerator was ,i had to go look.....:rolleyes:

    The steering has improved ,ie turning circle...:D

    It would be tricky to swap (driving) from one to the other if they weren't the same...
