I had a little trouble with the airride, I had a leak in one valve.
But as I used to work on big trucks, those valves are repairable and so I did.
Also, I wanted an extra gauge for tank pressure, also wanted some other switches what looked more old school.
Last week I have built a new panel with extra gauge and “old” switches, looks much better now.
I had also a leaking pinion seal, that was my own fault. I drove through a just mowed grass field and the lying grass killed my seal.... That’s whats happen to lowered vehicles
Jaguar has them no longer in stock, so I had to order an aftermarket seal.
It’s in now and last Saturday we did test it all. My wife and I drove 270 km (almost 168 mile) just to see some Hot Rods and streetmachines
The truck did stand the test!
Coming Thursday we go to France with a bunch of our club, there is a festival called Cry Baby, only pre ‘65 and a lot of Rockabilly music. Gonna be fun!!
Now for some pics.
