If you know the photo you can see his face even if it is the outline.

Haven't heard from him in a long time. Do you know if he and Ann are okay?

I recommend the Viton material. It's not always available and will cost more, but wil last longer.

On a Landrover forum I found once https://www.lrdirect.com/stc3435s-swive ... 1se-sachet Think I will use it the next time I service my steering house.

Kevin, you have found yourself a very nice but also a complete Major. Hope you will enjoy it a long time.

Nice catch Emiel.
Seems very original to me.

You need tools, even the file, dat has never been used in steel. Even tuch it. It makes a facet on the tools and it won't cut the way it should.
Sandpaper is the farmer way. Reaming is the right way.

Lots of careful welding to do. Should be a lot easyer to use MAG welding. But then you need other equipment.

Welcome Harwin on this board. Hope someone can help you.
