Glad to hear GeraldC, also when checking the connections don't forget all the subframe bolts and the routing of the hyd lines. Some of my lines were wedged against the subframe and the subframe had some sharp edges that put small cuts in the lines. So the last time I took off my BH I knocked down those sharp edges with a file. Which reminds me, recently I went to put it back on and had not relieved enough hyd pressure from the BH from when I had taken it off. With any hyd pressure left in the BH you won't be able to connect the lines. So I had to create a leak to relieve the hyd pressure. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

How did you do that? I have an idea of what I would do and am curious as to how you did it.
Thanks for the other info too /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif. G

Thanks JayC /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif. A lot of zigging when I should've been zagging for about the first 20 minutes or so. Pretty much got the hang of it now. It's awesome /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif! More to follow. G
