Hello,
More work done today,
Work on the hatches on the top of the engine bay.
Working on the winch, i change the grub screw M3 to M4 and put a flat surface on the axle ( for the worm wheel )
There are 3 washers that you have to put on the axle just ath the end of the worm wheel so the worm wheel is in the center.
Also did some work on a second speaker that i put in the spare wheel on the back of the famo.
I did glue the steel cable into the winch wheel and close the hole with metal paste ( to secure the cable )
Best regards Yves
