There`s nothing to pin it too and you would have to be sooooo precise drilling if it was possible, i would have to drill into both of those tiny ends above the leaf springs and then somehow align the wheel hub so it didn`t rock ![;-|](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/squint.png) Anyhoo..........sorted now ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

It works and steady as a rock............at the mo ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) Well from one catastrophe to another......if the wheel disaster wasn`t enough i messed up paint ![B-|](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/notamused.png) , Des yellow is one of my all time favs to do but it`s been a while and i`m kinda off my stride a little bit, so i had to do a re-pass over the cab and start again.
I tried somat that i did a while back on my Scammell only it didn`t work this time.........oh well!!
Anyhoo...........i`m sorta back to square one now, some washes on the rear deck applied but other than that.....not a lot!!

aaah setbacks...the one thing that makes us scale modellers stand out...it makes us only stronger (or so I tell myself) ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) . Nevertheless, I like what I'm seeing here chap. And agreed, what's not to like with getting dirty eh ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png)
