Re: 1986 Single Cab
Wrong tin and heat shield on exhaust fouls the mounting bars. Me and this late exhaust system have fallen out.

Re: 1986 Single Cab
Not sure you can get the tin on after silencer is on and you need to tin.

Re: 1986 Single Cab
Exhaust straps go under exhaust not over. Makes sense, should you replace rear box - when straps removed box would fall away. It's all new to me!

Re: 1986 Single Cab
Yes. Early don't need the slots in the tin as the engine mounting bar doesn't have exhaust brackets.

Re: 1986 Single Cab
+New connector wired into alternator.
+Extended stud on solenoid as it was too short for alternator feed.
+Cut early tin to fit late model and painted it.
+Distributor fitted.
+Gearbox oil topped up.
+Wired a few earths in.
-Clutch slave, carb., engine oil and water (anti-freeze after first check) then I'll be checking compression up and firing it up...hope...

Re: 1986 Single Cab
Need to set the dizzy to an approx TDC setting, gear could be in any of 12 positions so you can't copy another engine.
Shout if you need help.

Re: 1986 Single Cab
Well, Mar-tin has finally got his tin wear on!
Took a few attempts but did my best to make this early tin fit. I need a tailpipe for the exhaust, nice and straight for a side exhaust me thinks.
