Hi Declan
Many thanks for all the info,and photos,very helpful.
I am going to Rally Design on Monday for the parts required for the job.
I am sure not going to fit the plastic pipe,better to do the job once only.
Thanks again,and hope this helps other Members?
regards
Trevor

Re: REMOTE BRAKE RESERVOIR KIT
Hi Guys Thanks for all the advice,yes the kit did come with the plastic pipe. The main reason for changing,was for ease of checking level,but also for bleeding.it saves getting in the way of person on the pedal.

Re: new radiator issue
Hi All
Speaking of radiators,my radiator grille is looking tatty,and overdue for a little tlc.
How do you remove it from the front panel?
Someone said you can do it with out taking the rad out,by tilting it back,but I think I will drain it,and have some fresh
antifreeze.
best regards

Re: The 21st Kent Hop Run
Hi All
I have been told,that Dogs might be allowed in the car show field on a lead,but not the Farm complex?
My advice,would be to ring The Rare Breeds Centre direct,as I would not want to mislead anyone.
kind regards

Re: Traveller fuel Tank
Hi
Many thanks for that,it appears that tanks have jumped up in price?I did consider the larger tanks,but you cannot fit your spare wheel back,so for me thats a non starter.
Thanks also for the tip on dumdum,I used it when I replaced the glass in my Traveller doors
Speak again soon
best regards

Re: Lucas ACR Alternator
Hi
Its been awhile since I purchase an alternator,are they not an exchange unit anymore?
If the answer is no,you could repair your old unit as a spare,if the bearings are all good.
