You doughters  ;D Christmas Eve update-

I thought I would do a stage by stage build so everyone would see whats involved in building one of these kits. So on with the pics

Stage one starts with the side of the gearbox parts used
Image

and installed
Image

Next stage finishing the gearbox parts used
Image
and installed -Andrew designs don't supply any grease for the gearbox so I used some Tamiya grease I had
Image
Image

Next stage is installing the gearbox parts used
Image
and installed
Image

next stage is finishing the drivetrain parts used
Image
and installed- the kit contains adjustable rear idlers just loosen the screws and slide the idler then retighten
Image

thats all for tonight got to help the missus wrap the rest of the presents Merry Christmas everyone

Cheers Ian
