Removed steering guard, track rod and drag link. New TRE's and Drop Arm ball joint tomorrow.
 
Changed engine oil, adjusted steering box (a midge too tight) , removed steering wheel to fix grinding contact spring for the horn and fitted a rear ladder using riv nuts.

Very productive afternoon. :)
 
Fitted a new top & bottom hose on the 300tdi, realised that the bracket which prevents them being damaged by the water pump pulley is missing, went......"ahhhhh", then fitted a new temp sensor for the gear box oil cooling.

Went for a drive

My missus drove over a rock the size of a fiat panda, which wrecked the steering damper & bend the rod, meh.....
 
did some wiring, messed with exhaust, checked prop length gave up on mine as I messed up a measurement on the rear tub and need to re cut the ally floor plate so moved onto other series and fitted new gear lever so you don't smash your hand when going for first or reverse
