Steering Column
Can anyone advise or comment if this looks correct. It is top of the steering column of my EL24, when I turn there is a slight knock which sounds if coming from near the top. The sound is the same when the steering box if filled with oil or not! There are two nuts as can be seen in the pic the lower...

Re: Luvax shock absorbers for a V 41/2 (V32)
I have been at my Luvax units from my El24 for the past while, attached some info which you may find helpful. Getting the back plate off can be a challenge I had to make tool for the job, worth the effort to check the inside working parts. I had to have a visit to my engineering shop to make one goo...

Re: LD10 Exhaust
May not suit you for geography but "Pipe Dynamics" Leven, Fife, Scotland are the business when it comes to exhausts. They have made a replacement for my Daimler EL24 in stainless all in house. I stood in their workshop as they made all the sum of parts required with great detail by bending...

Re: Coachbuliders
I removed the "J' section rain channel from my EL24 for a proper clean up, it is a very neat design with the fold over
top section covering up any screw or nail fixings. Stamped on the back was "Mulliner Patent Design"

Re: Pics Luvax Dampers
They are a challenge! now that the back plate is off there is a degree of wear which I will have to address somehow. The inside of the unit looked like it was filled with something like grinding compound! The main wear is on the concave face of the block in the pic, not really sure how it is held in...

Re: EL24 limo AUN 132
I looked deep into this car when it was for sale in my area some time ago and was not impressed with it.
Comment has been made about poor door card fitting and indeed it is a simple matter to be better than it is,
other issues are not hard to find.

Re: EL24 limo AUN 132
AUN 132 was restored in the Inverness area and was at one time put up for sale at Morris Leslie car auctions Errol, Perthshire, it was unsold. I have been working on my own EL24 for too long now and one thing that it does not suffer from is rust and at the grand old age of 85 years! Those old Limos ...
