Got to service it next , engine, atf / transfer and both diffs, but see there’s a bloody great big heavy engine sump plate , so been looking on ebay to suck the engine oil out the dipstick , also my drive is at an angle :(
 

hahahahahahaha please!! £17k!?!? You can get the same if not more torque from a tuned TD5 for one, two a 3UZ V8 conversion is roughly £7K which is 350bhp and 550nm standard and capable of 600bhp+ and 700nm+ with a supercharger for an extra £1k.

I'm certainly in the wrong business... :rolleyes::rolleyes:

You've been busy then! The same bushes went on my dads RR, he asked me to do them I promtly said no lol and sent it off to Gigglepin!! I don't envy you! lol glad youre well though.
