  1. Bottom bolt holding shocker to de dion is 1/2 inch UNF. Be careful it's all too easy to cross thread (you may already have done so by the sound of things. 

    To line things up it sometimes helps to turn the shocker through 180 degrees as rubbers tend to stick in a not quite straight position - if you see what I mean. To ensure bolt goes in straight it's sometimes better to remove the top link of the de dion so that de dion can be twisted to help line up bolt exactly. 

  2. Unfortunately relays are often poorly made and prone to ingress of water. I'm not sure that any are better than another. My first went a bit faulty after about 9 years, so not a big problem at only £5 each. I did think about taking one apart and trying to seal it better using glue but then it was easier just to buy a new one to carry as a spare. 

  3. Just on our way home from a couple of days with Peter and Lin Williams. Returned their re-bag after German trip and managed to meet up with some of the N. Wales crew at Rhos on Sea on Sunday. A pleasant weekend. By the way, Chris Proudlove has the L7C banner for Audlem on Sunday and will pass to Bill Blundell who will bring to Tatton for you.
