With other commitments and holiday taking precedence, I’ve had little motivation / time to update LGL but…. there has been progress on this and that.
In this post, the hinges get rebuilt, the pics were take a few weeks ago.
So, without further ado…
I painted the hinge components with a brush using unthinned paintNewly painted hinges, new Series 2 hinge pins, olives and springsThis is how the components relate to each otherGrease the inside of the hingeFit the bolt and olive…Grease the other side of the olive…Fit second arm of hinge, spring, lock tab and nut…Lock tab peened overFull set of hinges ready to go. The lower pair are for the rear door, to which I will add a third hinge, similar to the Defender. This is to accommodate the additional weight of the spare wheel I intend to mount on the rear door.
