Recent work done...

At last mot it had new drums, shoes and fitting kit.
It has had a new front panel welded in and front tub mount on n/s has had a small patch welded in, other than that the chassis and body work is in ok Nick.

It has been off roaded but the only damage it ever sustained was a small dent and some scratches to the rear o/s corner of the tub and some other scratches from trees.

Bad bits.....
Discs need done on it (I have a set of larger 2 piston callipers to fit so was going of to get the new discs and pads to go with them at the next service)
Knocking from suspension (rear bushes are tired and I suspect there's something needing tightened in the n/s/f of the truck but I haven't had a chance to look yet.
It is using s small amount of water. I'm suspecting an airlock and will try re bleed and coolant flush before sale.
Gear box has a slight crunch going into third but if you don't Rush the gear change its usually ok will do a gear oil change and see if it helps.

I don't really want to sell it as I'm very attached to it but it hasn't really suited my needs for a while now so it's time to move on.

I'm located between Aberdeen and Edinburgh but willing to meet at a sensible distance for a sale

Looking for £2000ono

Thanks for looking

thats one good truck for the moneys alot of good bits on it, love the bumper too.
also curious why did you remove the anti roll bar ? isit to give it more articulation or something ? as i imagine without it it will let the arms drop better ?
good luck with the sale.

Yeah, removed it for a bit of extra flex off road. Thought it might make it too boaty on road as I'm on motorways a fair bit but it's not too bad.

Just put a deposit on a new car so needs to go soon!!

On gumtree now, think I've had the first shifty email from a guy who says he's off shore and will paypal money and have an 'agent' come to collect it..... Hate selling cars!!!

Well the potential buyer tonight was a no show.... Insurance is now lapsed on the truck so moved it out to the unit and will put it up on eBay. Think I've got to the bottom of the water problem.... Replaced a poorly fitting o ring seal in the thermostat housing and a split hose in the turbo water feed and it has been sorted all day. Expansion tank level staying constant, no over heating and other than pre-exisiting dirt in the expansion tank no oil in water.

Now you've fixed Rob you should keep it 😄

Lol think 5 cars may be pushing it...

Now sold....
