Yeah, I'll be careful!! Apparently Delrin cuts like wood so I should be OK with the chop saw I bought.
Marty, I got my Delrin from here

If I still have 10 fingers by next weekend I'm sure we could work something out :)
No
Well, possibly if your car was registered after May 2001 (IIRC) but if it was you're in a higher bracket anyway.
So, get a 2000 and it's cheaper Gas or not.
OK. so from the darkside:
Front
High Profile 140mm
Standard profile 100mm
Low Profile 75mm
Access Profile 35mm
Rear
High Profile145mm
Standard Profile105mm
Low Profile 80mm
Access Profile 40mm
Which I make 1050mm of 30mm delrin assuming perfect 0 loss cuts. Call it 1100mm :)
Sounds like I could make my own set for less than Island charge and come out ahead by one chop saw....

I’m sure if you ask around, one of your friends will have a chop saw, if not send rods to me and I’ll cut them
That's a kind offer!
But, if I google Chop Saw I seem for half the price of a set of rods. More tools is better, right? :)
But, this is a bit of a ballache if I have to make a set of calibration blocks before I can change the height sensor. What's the worst that can happen if I just change the sensor?
OK, I see Island 4x4 sell them FOR £130!!!!
Maybe it's time to get a decent saw!
Folks, the Duches started to look a bit pissed! She has moaned about "LH R sensor out of range" three times in a week and when she's parked up she's very high at the rear left and low on the front right.
The EAS goes up and down OK but starting from access height everything is level. By the time you get to normal, there's definitely a lean (measured the lazy way by comparing the bonnet line with lines of bricks on a wall)
Should I just replace the LHR sensor and recalibrate? or are there any other tricks?
Also... I need to get some calibration blocks :( Are they sold anywhere - I don't have any tools up to cutting that much Nylon!
I thought it was time for a new ebay spotting thread :)
Autumn Camp would suit you fine then - you know it's illegal to fix aircon during the summer. :P
Autumn camp sounds good!
I think it's a mutual interest, and both P38 and LPG users are becoming scarcer as DI petrol engines take over.
Marty, could you do October or some other time later in the year? Maybe?
I'll see if our guests will change weekends.... I've really enjoyed summer camps so far and I think we need to raise a glass to OB this year.
I get the impression you've done this before! :)
You'll be thankful you bought it. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow - but soon ;)
And it would be a bit embarassing if the neighbour had the naus to put in a complaint to OFCOM :)
(although I guess you'd get to work from home that day!)
HAh - nice result! :) You can tell people you're using your Range Rover as an air cleaner.
AH well, maybe our guests will move. I'll check :)
I'm really sorry :(
SWMBO has invited guests up that weekend.
I could do 11/12th or 25/26th - but don't change if it knocks anyone else out!
Sadly not for me :(
Hey ho - post lots of pics!
