Doing well there fella ! What's next? You gonna start on the new bulkhead ?

:d:d

Ah, but do you use yours Brian powers for good...or EVIL ?:D

**** me that's a good idea - i hadn't hought of that :doh::doh: And yes - i've got the special "hard light" tubes from B&Q :D:D

Wassat then :D I've got a few of them out, but theres a few creases that'll need some more ....... focussed attention..

My hoist turned up today, so gearbox is back in after some fettling and a choice selection of expletives. Decided that I had time tonight to look at the Distro pump timing, and as i suspected, the Drive gear (pump/oilpump drive) was aboot 10-20 degrees out, and looks like it's been out...

SOO jealous - Wish my garage was that big :D The woes of "repaired" Series wiring - it never seems to change. Don't see owt wrong with making your own loom, i've done the same in the past, and at least you can add/modify/trunk wires where you want to.....

After much searching and swearing, I decided this weekend to forego the OEM rear Cab filler strip in favour of a home-brew sealed blanking plate. I hate doing it, but the ones I have found while trawling are either already rusted, or overpriced. I started on test fitting the tailgate tonight...

Yes, I know it serves two purposes, but the assembly is the same in both exploded diagrams, quite clearly in fact. I've already said the assembly is correct in the photo, so what's your point, CharlesY ?

YAY!:D:cheer2:

it may be drawn differently, but the assembly is the same. The picture may be different in it's layout, but the assembly is identical if you look at the two diagrams they show the same components.

VERY nice - and are those original jerrycan mounting straps I see on the rear gate ?

LOLZ - sorry - my sodding phone keeps kicking me off the reply screen so i have to edit to finish posting :mad::doh:

Yup been there a few times. You have the correct orientation. Look at your pic, and then at your photo. In your pic you have: Items 11,13,10,14 (and the rest of the union) Now look at the diagram - You'll see item 12 ( not in your photo) is both smaller and hopefully still in the regulator...

Cheers guys ;) I'm thinking I might make a "Z bar" as i've got some angle kicking about that'll do the job nicely, and still look tidy. This is only if i can't find what i'm after though....

Your photo is correct. Diagram seems clear to me fella. The "shorter" part of the regulating plug goes into the other spring....and the longer part goes into the spring in your photo. edit: ** ....and your missing a washer ;) ** edit: ** ...taptalk is ****ing up again...took 3 edits to get...

I feel a Caption Competition coming on... :D

:boink: :scratching_chin:

Slam was a freebie :D Cab was 90 Tailgate was 20 I'd of spent more there, but only took enough for lunch, and the parts. If you know anyone breaking a cab dude, I really need the rear support plate for the SWB cab.

Right, onto the interesting stuff. So if your window seals are fubar'd on either yer truck cab or side panels (they're both the same) and you need to replace them instead of simply filling the rails with Sillycoon or screwing them closed, read on... :D First of all, you'll need to remove the...
