Just been and got 2 of the items i bid on in sale , 3 fordson major rear wheel centres ,there is 2 round ones which i will use but it was the one cutout one i needed to make up a set but as one lot i had to have all 3 , other item is a big bag lifter ,sometimes pallet tines cut handles on big bags and on unloading lorrys you have to be very carefull on not hiting the roof while trying to get bags just of the deck so hopefully this will make job a bit better

Sounds like your making an ever growing list of jobs Smithy... Are your major brakes drum or the later dry disc type like on a super major? Disc type not bad to work on, not too dissimilar to the ones Nuffield used and then carried over into he Leylands.

Drum brakes, photo not good as cant get a good shot ,its also got a slight leak on halfshaft but i am told its because gearbox is leaking into back axle and pushing oil level up higher than it should be and causing it to leak ? I am not sure on that but am looking into it
