Another Tich question Mar 25, 2005 18:46:12 GMT

Hi there

Progress continues on my 3 1/2" gauge Tich front end and I am wondering if anyone would advise installing drain taps? LBSC doesn't specify any as he suggests the relatively small cylinders will warm up quickly enough to avoid any risk of hydraulic damage. I think it is possible to make a set and fit them but now is the time before I install the blocks onto the chassis.

Any offerings please chaps?

Cheers
