    Remember TE is in a field.
    If it's wet, the ground won't be ideal for jacking up your bus well enough to work underneath it for 2 days.
    It's always been fine for engine removal / bearings etc but if I was going to be working under a bus for any length of time, I wouldn't want it to be in a field.
    Just my opinion.

  5. Good point
     
  6. Think i may postpone the beam change and come for some advice/help on break adjustment and fine tuning then to make them as good as possible! or to just watch a drink... :)

    All being well and shes back on the road that is!

    What's the point of a non-spiced curry? Isn't it just a stew?
