DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

In which case, I guess we should all be driving Morgans and TVRs, or Austins. And definitely not importing parts from abroad. ;-) I have quite a few British classic cars and most stuff whether replacement light lenses, or Lucas replacement parts in general, rubber window seals, switches etc all com...

Just moving air around in a room I cannot see technically of what value. Moving out warmer air from any room/garage that is containing a greater amount of moisture as warmer air does and replacing it with cooler air say from outside as temperature drops containing less moisture will obviously lower ...

Not necessarily, most of them are on finance ............

So they write 'pre owed' now it makes sense

Sorry to hear of anyone who has flooded when from ground up. Over the years I have had two huge 'wet' homes but thankfully classed as 'water escape' as from frozen burst mains water pipes so no dirty mucky sewerage. As for dehumidifiers I have them everywhere in the home (7 in total) and not just th...

We zoom along blissfully to such a prospect. Sci-Fi always comes true eventually.... :shock: Oh dear I hope not..............well anyone that has watched the Charlton Heston/Edward G. Robinson movie ''Soylent Green''................but then I am partial to a McVities chocolate :lol: The film looked...

Hi, I wonder what the horror stories are with those of us that have stored our cars and learnt over the years. My problems have occured with only just short term storage ov er winter and not as if left in a barn for years and years I agree it is a good idea to leave the windows open a 'little' howev...

Hi, On my smaller lighter cars I just leave handbrake off as I do on them all anyway and then every week or two roll each car forward then later on roll it back as plenty of space in my garages for average sized cars. My problem car is the Rolls Royce Shadow as it weighs 2 tons impossible to push ev...

Sorry Jonny I was thinking of what PeterK had said in his earlier reply.............had too much multi tasking going on. I see what you are saying but I am borrowing a 51 piece bearing hub remover so has what should be the right size discs and I agree it is bad practice to put the pressure just on t...

Hi, Thanks everyone for advice.....but..... :oops: I have watched that video now quite a few times and yes I can now see as Jonny says he pulls off the inner bearing race as it clearly appears to show the inner bearing balls themselves become visible. That said I can understand if at the point I don...

Many thanks, I understand it a little better now as was confused another new part was being fitted as well as the bearing. Yes I also appreciate the hub bearing carrier internal can/could be an issue which was very common on the Lotus Elans as these were aluminium casting. We used to run an internal...

Thanks Peter. I am probably still sounding dumb on this but the complete main bearing itself gets replaced exactly at 5 minutes on the video. So is that other part which looks like a 'top hat' shape being pressed into the hub at 6.40 mins just a sleeving that fits into the wheel carrier hub casting ...

Thanks, yes I have researched both ways that it can be done albeit a few have had issues removing bearing in situ so had to do the full strip down to bench repair with hyraulic press etc. I think/hope given the condition of the parts as little to no exposure and still looking very clean i can achiev...

Hi, Got very slight play on one side rear wheel bearing mentioned verbally by tester on recent MoT but not considered a problem so no advisory just told to keep an eye on it. Not expected really as only 4000 miles since a complete nut and bolt restoration which included all new hubs etc etc............
