Easier fix than sourcing and replacing a front brake hose at the test garage within the hour when it blew on the brake test just before Christmas

That doesn’t look at all good , did you hit something or did it a component fail ?
The swivel seems to be totally detached from the axle casing https://www.instagram.com/hustynminepark/ |

Yup, the bolts on the flange on the end of the axle all sheared. Collision with a Focus.

^^^^ This is the one Blackwolf on here warned people about and I checked mine, close but not an issue.

Put a 24" lightbar on the front of my 110 today to replace the 8" Wipac jobbies. Yes I'm impressed, it's one of those combined flood and spot light ones.
The downside is that when I went out tonight to do the things I have to do the damned brake pedal has gone hard with a very reduced braking efficiency. Points very much to the master cylinder, I only did the thing a couple of years ago, the brakes were absolutely fine this morning but not tonight  |

Sadly it's the one I swapped 14 months ago for a BAS one chasing a previous boost leak. Nothing wrong with the product but very little in the way of clearance 2007 - Stornoway Grey 90 XS SW - Gone 2002 - Black Discovery II - Gone 2014 - Montalcino Red 110 XS SW |

Revisited a ford that I last went through in the summer that wasn't much of a ford at the time.
I'm pretty chuffed with that bow wave! |

Have you all got the additional bracket LR retro fitted to earlier ones? That is supposed to solve just this issue. |
