Called them and they will send a new bottom trunnion to see if that makes a difference.

As always top-service!

Mmm, apparently I'm the only lucky one to encounter this problem?

Anybody experience on having a new set of trunnions and swivel pin, but already axial play on the bottom trunnion?

Oh, much more replies than i hoped for, with very usefull info !

Ill be adding one extra nipple on each lower trunnion, as said opposite of the grease slot. After that, i will finally installing declans seals too and ill be ready for 2017 !

thanks all !

Hi Phill,

thanks for the super-quick reply ! unfortunatedley with the new site there are some losses of interesting topics...

discussed many times, but not yet found the right answer, so excuse me to ask again... I mounted the mirror like I was thinking it should be, and actually it sits quite stable, and visibility backwards is much improved (only having wing mirrors).

Thank you for your replies !

This weekend (due to lovely weather and good temperatures) i ll paint the inside of the doorposts and then hang the doors, attach them and assemble the upper halls/frames, as advised! Thanks for that !!

A practical question, my doors are just back from the paint shop and quietly waiting on the couch :lol: I remember removing the doors (with upperhalf) was quit a nightmare (size/weight)....and a lot of damage to the centre post .. The guy form the paint shop advises to first hang the doors in the ca...

Hello all, Didn't realise that the position of the bracket was the reason of so many replies :o unware of that, I didn't took a frontal picture yet, but this pictures to show my 'template' to be sure I will weld my new bracket right back on. (After fixing the initial corrosion caused oil leakage jus...
