One for Lorne: Have had a broken diagonal stay in the past, I always check them when greasing.
Hi Deejay,
I am not being coy.
I am merely continent-hopping at the moment and have no earlier gomog backups with me .I had been working on the crossframe stay area just before I left the Andes many weeks ago. With your post, I will re-link the old advice you like (mine from decades ago) when I am back home at the end of the week. Happily Richard saves gomog stuff so he had the missing link.

Explanation:
I refuse to be an expert. They are an inflexible breed. 90% of them learn a way of doing something when they started 30-50 years ago and never change, even though the object of their expertise does
with new factory and often community fixes. In this case, as Richard points out, a better explanation than my own appeared. Like Richard, I believe the newer explanation of Jean-Frederic Frot is better.
The inability of most experts to adapt or teach anything other than what they learned 40 years ago is a sad fact. It why I noted that the LR/Rover V8s are normally such a leaking filthy mess.There is not grate harm in a messy engine aside from them being no fun to work with and a sad sight. It took me a while to achieve, but all my Plus 8 engines became bone-dry. It can be done by anyone but most of us rely on experts.
I compliment the attention you give your Morgan.
Lorne
