What's the difference?
In thoery you should be redoing the brake fluid every 12 months.
Far superior in its ability to hold its torque setting (zero chance of coming lose) the middle ring fixes to the left ring with small screws. You still need to repack with grease at normal intervals.

That would be true Gimp

I was planning on buying a new double garage but I'm really restricted with what I can do by local building regs and the layout of my section, and the options I was looking at are all a bit expensive at the moment. Solution: clean out and modify existing single garage. The door is stuffed anyway, and is the limiting factor in fitting the truck in, so it's going to go.
So the Cruiser has this going on: leaking around the windscreen and ~*rust*~. Rained 129mm in 24 hours before this photo.

So I wanted to put it in my shitty small single garage because it turns out I cannot afford a decent sized new one.

Of course it did not fit into my shitty small single garage. The limiting factor was the height of the door/frame (also furniture)

Some crowbar and sledgehammer work later

And a visit to the local hardware store for timber and hinges, then knocked up a set of these

And hung them

And now it fits. Fucking just. Out of the rain though!! But no room to reasonably work on anything.

Also I got some replacement windscreen hinge covers from a junked BJ74. New production ones don't fit, they're too wide

How do you get into it in that shed?

And here was me thinking you could just let your tyres down.....
How do you get in and out of truck?
We chewed out a bit more space above the door and raised it up a bit. Then riveted some ali angle on the bottom of the door to fill the gap. Made the door a bit more rigid as a bonus. Now have even taller vehicles yet again so they don't fit in any longer. Doors like yours, as bi-fold or tri-fold, running in tracks would be even better.
I didn't like the tilt door as it restricted overhead access when open and prevented having any lighting in that 1/3 of the garage
