Don't you love how that copper anti seize gets smeared on every surface, even the ones you didn't touch? Nice to see the Landy coming back to life.

That's the witness-property copper-anti-seize producers build/mix into their stuff. Was it only where it is supposed to be, nobody would know You used some of it, at all.

@spenmac Год назад

The comments, 'found it, lost it' had me snickering for a good 30s. The stream of anecdotes, humour and ocd was all spot on - because its so identifiable. The bracket thats so sharp it can cut you from a distance for example, was hilarious. I almost spat out my morning coffee as a result 😏

@CROKERvsRover Год назад

I wasn’t joking. I’m sure I hardly touched but my hands felt like they’d been dragged through a rose bush 🤣

@michaeldallimore8590 Год назад

Great progress. The handbook for my 1929 Singer actually specifies the interval at which the leaf springs should be removed, dismantled and regreased. Greasing the springs is absolutely the correct approach.

@Stu_2112 Год назад

The argument used against the greasing of Land Rover leaf springs is that the ingress of crud, sand and grit into the grease between the leaves turns it into a grinding paste and accelerates the wear. I do grease my springs as my Landy doesn't see a lot of heavy off road use.

@michaeldallimore8590 Год назад

@@Stu_2112 OK I suppose that might be reasonable. My LR has airbags so not an issue for me.

@mbrown6930 Год назад

@@Stu_2112 I grease mine too - I've not seen any Land Rover leaf springs abraded away to nothing by a greasy grinding paste but I have seen a lot of them corroded into a solid lump with splayed leaves caused by rust expansion. Spring steel is pretty hard and unlikely to wear significantly. Regularly hosing the crud off the underside will make everything last longer anyway.

@maelbilquey3743 Год назад

Found this in my old mechanic school book about leaf springs : "always lubricate every spring with suitable grease at reassembly" 🥳

I loved the 70/80's electronica - it was like watching a land rover version of Risky Business. Especially when that spring let go. Can you still have children?

@graemelliott3942 Год назад
