Could hear chirping and had these in stock so put on new dayco belt and tensioner. Removed tensioner doesn’t sound terrible but isn’t silent so hopefully I’ve cured it.
Sprayed all the underneath with degreaser and will hit it with the steamer.
She’s marking slightly, only a couple drips over night but that’s her giving me fair warning.
Current guess is the crappy seal for the t box by the handbrake drum. Wading plug fitted to seal if RMS is leaking. Not too sure yet.
Nothing alarming anyway, just enjoyable tinkering at the moment.

Looks well made and has big bolts welded in rather than studs that rely on a little tack of weld!

Go on give us a link where you got it from..
Just got hold of a better rear cover for mine & this should fit neatly inside.
(Better than the eye & ratchet strap that’s been tested for years)

Haven’t got it out yet, snapped one stud extractor so I’ve left it soaking for a while. All I was doing was removing egr crap and that happens.
It’s definitely been coking her up.

The guy who repaired it said to tighten it very slightly first, which should break the corrosion instead of trying to release it first.

I mounted spare wheel earlier. I’ve got fairly chunky tyres but nothing daft. The wheel tucks up to tailgate much closer and is a way better fit!
