1... it has a disco 200tdi engine with an open air filter (nothing to do with me) i want a snorkel how do i go about fitting one with that on there... and where can i get a cheap one second hand even. safari snorkel top is a must
2... sometimes wont go into second im thinking slow synchro but i might be wrong
3... knocking from rear (salsbury axel) when i accelerate issue or not?
4... puddles forming in footwells standard or have i missed a hole somewhere??
5... ive got a lights bar am i right in thinking pretty much any lights will fit on there??
6... im sure there was a 6...
7... cb radio doesnt work i can get static but nothing else

Chock wheels, handbrake off and in neutral. Don't worry about rotational play in the props themselves but try and wiggle universal joints and slider up and down/side to side.......should be no movement at all. Also check the end caps on u/j's for cracking.

No big hassle to change them if worn but can be fairly disasterous if they let go on the move.

Oh.....and grease them.....regularily!
