    Just discovered your UA-cam site, wow what a nostalgia trip with Mr O’Donovan’s collection, especially the Scammell Routeman and the Leyland’s. I started work for St Albans Sand & Gravel in 1979 and my first truck was a Leyland Bison, then I progressed to a Routeman and finally a Constructor. By the way the guy with the Constructor in Hertford I know very well. Thanks for the memories.

    Great idea getting the kids some hands on. They certainly could benefit greatly from using their hands for something other than the phone. 👍 When i was young, I couldn't resist taking something apart to see and learn how it worked (much to the chagrin of my parents...lol) and now I can fix pretty much anything. Keep up the good work, Lord Muck! 🚛🚜

      @stephenrichardson6105 Рік тому

      Yeah noticed the springs missing, beams on bottom of rear axle along with the earlier Hub Reductions.
      They change the Hub Reductions around 88 so could possibly have had either on.
      We changed a complete back end out on one to Rubber suspension with axles fitted after the later type Hub Reduction failed, locked up and twisted the splines on axle end.
