Just the ends.
They a supposed to be 100% pressure tested. I had them on my 90 and the brakes nice and sharp.
Orkney, my wife said lets go and live on an Island. Have packed my trunks. Will be stopping at Woodhall Spa on the way.
Will have to be home brew, pub would be a ferry ride away in normal times
Moving is classed as essential, bit of a pain with no pubs opening etc. But have packed the stove for hot meals. Don't think new owners of the house I have sold would want us sleeping on the floor. Removal company due on the 24th.
Fitted top box for my next trip.
Changed front pads today, much better braking now less pedal travel. Moving on to sorting poor fuel economy before my move 11.5 mpg at the moment.
Zip ties are great things, have stopped many a rattle over the years.
Welcome Paul, P38's are a lovely car to drive.
I think you should name that garage so we can all avoid it.
I always give p38s a flash, of my lights. 😃
Kent to Orkney two ferry rides, can't wait. Workshop, land and fishing. 58°

You've got a friendly tester there, use him again, that should be a fail.
5.3.4. (b) ii,
(b) A suspension joint dust cover:
(i) severely deteriorated - Minor (advisory)
(ii) missing or no longer prevents the ingress of dirt etc.- Major (Fail)
Passed last year the same. Different tester. Will be moving next month 1500 round trip so hope to find another friendly tester.
Val passed her MOT with just the issue of the lower ball joint covers missing. Very please with her.
Sitting outside waiting for my p38 going trough the MOT. Like waiting for a new baby to arrive.
Do change them, I would not use silicone myself.
My word what a big job!
Thanks
