MG Midget front wheel bearings

I have found some NOS new old stock bearings for the front of the midget. there is a lot of talk about the inner bearing fit on the stub axle especially the inner radius. Here's what I have found:

Lockheed Delphi WBK105 single kit

QH QWB105C BK5 double kit

Outer Bearing - RHP 11/MJT17

This is the most critical, due to the inner radius - RHP 39/LJT25

High Security Extenal Keysafe - Supra C500

Supra's Impressive C500Has been designed following extensive consultation with users. The security of the C500 is the highest level ever awarded to a key safe in the UK, achieving LPS1175 level 1 accreditation, equal to a front door of the same standard. As a result of this security rating, the product has achieved Police approval through the Secured by Design initiative.

CONSTRUCTION

The C500 KeySafe™ is made of heavy gauge stainless steel and a thick zinc-alloy shell. It has a double wall construction. A stainless plate around the buttons adds additional security and is scratch and fingerprint resistant. The heavy duty locking mechanism uses a long-travel bolt, making it extremely pry-resistant. A clutch mechanism prevents the handle from being forced open. If the C500 is locked and the handle is turned with force, the handle slips and turns easily without opening. Just turn the handle back to the closed position until it clicks to re-latch the handle.

INSTALLATION

Four heavy-duty masonry screws and a template are included for mounting. For further information about installing the C500 Keysafe™

APPROVALS

This C500 KeySafe™ has been tested against physical attack and as a result has received LPS1175 Level 1 certification. To maintain the security certification, the C500 KeySafe™ needs to be mounted on a brick wall with the included masonry screws.

Car and boat electrical parts

I'm tidying up some of the electrics on my Boat Aquaholic II. 

 It does not have a Battery isolator fitted. So I had a look and decided to fit a isolator which I had from My Midget race car. I have a borrowed a large cable ratchet crimper from a pal. 

It is Always best to use tinned copper cable for harsh environments, such as marine use. I got the cable and lug terminals from PoleVolt Ltd who are Suppliers of Auto Electrical Parts for Trade and DIY 

 

I'd used them a year ago when wiring my K series Midget and was very pleased with their service and prices

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wilmslow Burglaries

Following a Large increase in Burglaries, Police are advising residents to be extra vigilant in the Wilmslow, Handforth and Alderley edge Areas.

 Over the last few weeks there has been a massive increase in burglaries, with many houses being 'fished' whereby the keys to the house and car are being accessed by a long pole (also known as the 'hook and cane' approach), to reach people's keys through their letter plate. Other methods employed are less subtle, with forced entry through doors and windows to the rear of the house. In the majority of cases, thieves are targeting car keys so that they can steal cars from the driveway.

A police spokesperson said "Could I please remind you to close and lock all windows and doors when leaving your property and also leave lights and alarms on so that it looks as if someone is at home. Even if you are in the house please keep rear doors locked. Hide all car keys, never leave them on display on windowsills and hall tables. Put cars in the garage if possible."

I would add when securing your home at night, please make sure after checking and deadlocking your doors and windows to keep your keys(including any car keys) away form view from windows or letterboxes. Additionally, Please make sure the keys are in a safe place - where they can be found if you need them to escape in an emergency, such as a fire. it is advised to leave them at the top of he stairs where all occupants know where to find them if a situation arises. Also if the worst happens, an intruder will find them without disturbing your family.

Don't Automatically think its only large, New, German cars. I know of a smart 8 year old Mini Cooper S being targeted.

According to Wilmslow.co.uk -"During March house burglaries have occurred in the following areas : Knutsford Road, Bulkeley Road Handforth, Broadway, Fulshaw Park South, Swinley Chase, Westminster Drive, Alveston Drive, Albany Road and Stanneylands Road. There were attempted burglaries on Alderley Road, Thorngrove Road and Oak Lane. In addition, vehicles were stolen from the following areas: Grangeway Road, Delamere Road, Derwent Drive Handforth, Dean Drive, Hampton Court, Marina Close Handforth, Wilmslow Road Handforth and Kilncroft Lane Handforth. A motorcycle was also taken from the Knowle Park area of Handforth. Please contact the police on 101 if you notice anybody acting suspiciously in your area and take down any registration numbers belonging to suspicious vehicles."
