Swapped car transporter trailers over now have a slightly better one old one up for sale get rid of it!

Managed to find my issue with the steering l ball joints ok but drop arm every so slightly loose. It took some oil to squirt on the arm and lots of wiggling to find it but now all swapped out for a disco drop arm and new HD drag link with awsome dampwr mount. Steering is now tight as it left the factory!!

Swapped rims over for my BFG's trial fitted My 235 85 16 diamonds on offset disco rims to see how much more lock I can get which is quite a bit.

 
Forgot to say passed MOT yesterday.
Orginaly he failed it as he could open the passengers door from the inside or out,
So i went out and unlocked the door for him, showed him it opens inside, and out.
Then got a nice clean sheet..
The fact the wheels stick out the arch have the tread, the exhuast is just straight through brilliance, makes the tester love the truck even more haha, couldn't help himself but to keep reving it after the emissions test just to deafen everyone in the garage :)
 
Cleaned the inside, which literally consisted of shaking sand and mud off the floor mats and wiping dog dribble of the seats. God bored and gave up after that.
 
Changed cambelt today. Not too bad a job. Little worried about crank bolt, done up with air spanner and thread locked. Time will tell!

if its tight it will be ok , its one of those bolts you can hold the trigger and let gun rattle the bolt tighter without fear of stripping threads
 
Nothing done to the Disco, but I did win a winch on ebay.

Now I have to find away of telling the wife I spent close to £100 when we're skint, I also have to get it from Portsmouth.
 
attempted to make a rear light bar yesterday but gave up as I couldnt seem to get anything straight then today I stripped cleaned and rebuilt both my hilift jacks. they seem to be working better now
 
Looked at its red oil pressure light. Then stood back and looked at the whole thing. Then decided I want lot of money and a building to strip it and re build.
 
Ran it out of diesel whilst giving it a turn over. It seems the fuel gauge does read true.

Popped out for a gallon but it looks like om bleeding it tomorrow.

Oh and the needle didnt move a jot with the gallon. Ill try another.
