I dont now what to do about the tank end of things as there are to many discrepancies between the M48 in the walk around and the one i am building.

I can only assume my M48 is an earlier model, so i may have to use a bit of poetic licance (iff thats ok with you lads).

Mr Stanly and Mr Drill to the rescue again eh? they're nice chaps :) :)

Poetic licence would be acceptable here as i know what that walkaround does to your brain:)

As for your lower ram sticking, sounds painful ... i'd go doctors and get some cream John :)

Looking good mate, keep the updates coming please.
 
I can't help there John all i know is never cut the blue wire..... or is it the red ?
