We replaced a fecked UJ on the rear prop. The four bolts on the flange had been tightened up by a gorilla on steroids, took some shifting. Was going to replace all three UJ's but the other two were perfectly OK.

Thought would take the at off drill it out should only take an hour or two but no snapped a bolt in the turbo, lower nut that holds the turbo to cat unmoveable, seized nut for heat shield, top left nut that holds turbo to manifold unmovable. Had to bend heat shield back and undo the manifold to head nuts which thankfully was easy. Taken hours to get to this point cant be arsed to drill cat so bought a de cat pipe waiting foe that to be delivered. Tried calling for parts but milners were shut so when they open again will order all service items

Installed LED headlights, reverse cam and half of a parrot bluetooth kit before the wife came out and demanded I "stop f**king around with my spanners and stuff" and chauffeur her to town!
Dashcam and rest of the parrot on the menu for tomorrow! Once I've got over the hangover 😊

Oil and filter, cut out part of the heater to fit its first ever pollen filter, Air and fuel filters then drained and filled gearbox, transfer and both diffs bought a laser gear oil pump and it is hands down the worst ever tool invented on the face of the planet over 25 fucking pumps to pump 100ml yep that's right 100ml of gear oil and it has to be done slow or it doesn't pump
