Have you got the front jacked up on chassis legs? Is that recommended?

The front wheels are on ramps. :wink:

Edit: oh I see, the pic at the beginning. Not recommended as it can dent the chassis rail, but if you put a plank of wood across it helps to spread the load.

A credit to all your hard work. Really love those 1850 dials. They were always my favourite.

Nice one Mr. Custard. The wheels look excellent, did you do those yourself?
