Sheesh... Changed the rear brake pads. I was going to do the front ones but they have plenty of life left in them yet, so while that wheel was off I changed the Wheel bearing, Inner and Outer. All nice and tight now and no grumbling.

Fixed the window that had dislocated itself from the retainers, plenty of super sticky spray adhesive and some bicycle inner tube sorted that one out.


Still to do:

Timing Kit
new CV gaitor
possibly replace the catalytic converter
replace 2 UJ's
bend and lengthen the gear levers properly
fit the central locking kit
get the headlight aim sorted...
I also drink Port and I'm not ashamed to say it!

Then discovered what i think is brake fluid or gear oil under where the back end sits so i'm thinking load valve or diff or o/s rear brake cylinder
