At last my wheels arrived!!!! :D and are on the 90.

I came back over the Cairn O'Mount and noticed the Clatterin' Bridge was under 2 feet or flood water...so I just had to give it a go! Great fun!!

Then, upon getting home I decided to have a shot around the lochs and through the burns..all nicely in flood with slippy, muddy banks. Any problems? Ohhhhh no!. The 90 just took it in its stride, no wheels slips, even going down one of the banks at a 45 degree angle.

Can't wait to try them at Nortrak!!

Anyway, some pics of the new arrival...the body work needs a little TLC but the rest is fine.

A little more detail might be helpful, where in the roof is the leak?

Is it the standard ... as soon as you step on the brakes you or the passenger gets a free shower? or is it something else?

And the dash leak... is it the standard, right foot gets soaked on accel pedal or something else?

Both of these are easily cured with a little silicon/ seek'n'seal.

Mean Green,
Yes and yes...:D

At first I thought the leak in the roof was down to a repaired section above the cubby box where a spot lamp had been removed, but thats not the case. Its comming in somewhere else, which, since its been raining for what seems 40 days and forty nights, I cant suss out as everything is soaked.

As for the right hand foot well leak, its more like Niagra falls just now.

Where should I be looking for the leaks? Since they seem to be a common problem can you suggest where the water is getting in?

Thanks a million.
