Re: Front wheel brearing spanner
Hello Guys
I have the material for the spanners, and have manufactured one.
I just want to test it to make sure of the pin spacing before I manufacture the rest, and will do so this weekend.
Hopefully they will be ready early next week.

Re: Front wheel brearing spanner
David, most GQ's don't need it, they have manual hubs which have a normal hex nut.
This is why I haven't checked the spanner yet, I need a "donor car". Have lined up one for the weekend though.
And before you ask, I did contact Rudolph and Grant about it by PM, and all the other guys on the list have GU's.
Cheers

Re: Front wheel brearing spanner
Thanks Peter - I didn't know that. I remember my old MQ Safari had something similar and assumed the GQ's would be the same
