I've got 2 more end frames and 4 more shelf beams. Set them up near the floor then dragged her on while resting on some long planks. Then slid her forward and raised the beams behind. Then lifted and slid her backwards. Repeat for hours until she was 2.3 m above the floor, then slide her onto the top shelf and take away the spare beams.

Lucky I'm already on the waiting list for a hernia operation :roll:

BTW, those second hand pallet racks are the way forward with shed fit-out. Far more shelves for your $ than anything else. Just have to get Yellow Tounge flooring to make shelves.

Got the engine back in - all lined up and bolted in - 2 out of three engine steadies bolted in. Found the exhaust pipe touches the push button start :evil: Not as far down the track as I would have hoped but at least I can roll it onto the truck.

Changed the oil, oil filter, and radiator fluid. Fixed the light switch that keeps popping off. Think I need to buy a new PCB?

Lowered it by 1 finger (it's hydro, hehe)
Aimed the headlights (sort-of)
Pumped the tyres up and went for a fang round the block. :P

Gave it a hard push in the wet over my favourite mountain pass 8)

And when the adrenaline was gone, started to clean the twin HS4s.

Took out the front and rear windscreens yesterday..

Is the locking strip re-usable? I managed to remove one without breaking it.
