Front beam rebuild

  1. I also use dynax s50
    It’s a far superior product compared to waxoyl

  2. Is the probe thing quite flexible ?
    Was having a look to see how to do it, and it looks like it's actually quite tight and awkward corners to get into, I wonder if the probe would get to all the bits.
     
  3. It's a 0.5m nylon probe about 4.5mm thick (I measured it), with a 360º nozzle on the end. Just slap it on the top of the aerosol. I'd imagine it'll fit into a beam. Worst case, you could drill a couple of extra holes.

  4. I've got a 2" holesaw waiting for the job!
     
  5. Noooooo!
     
  6. How odd. I typed that ^ then went to home page and there's a thread about holesaws:eek::easter:
     
  7. Spooky. They can read your thoughts. I hear them at night :eek:...

  8. What a lot of holesaws!
     
  9. You won’t get a dynax aerosol can nozzle in the beam without drilling holes

  10. Yeah I know, but I just wondered whether the Lance would be flexible enough to reach the awkward corners, as snotty said probably need at least a couple holes, I originally thought I would only need one hjole
     
  11. You should be able to twizzle it around to spray everything. The nozzle has four 90º jets.

  12. The lance on the aerosol will do it fine

    What a flippin job that is, drove me mental:mad::easter:
    Started going over it all with white spirit to get rid of the residue.
    An equally crappy job, pretty much had a bath in white spirit.
    On the plus side though it's all pretty good under there and will look tiptop when painted.
     
  14. Top job :thumbsup: The original wax did its job quite well.
     
  15. Don't get under there again your hand brake is broken :)

  20. Most underwhelming update.
    Had stripped all the pedals off, to clean paint etc.
    Can't remember which one this is :oops::Dbut it's all painted up, greased and lovely
