Waved it good buy as someone else drove of in it. Going to miss it. Was going to look for an Isuzu Wizard or Mu but there is a good chance I might be getting Shogun V6 as soon as we land in New Zealand

Just done the tappits on Truck. They are now set to the spec 0.4mm rather than the 0.8/9mm that I found... Having never checked the tappits since I got the truck me thinks that a MINIMUM of 120,000 miles between checking them is bit excessive!
This posting may have been helpfull, on the other hand probably not... Either way, I may have had drink when posting it in which case it's probably not as helpfull as it could have been
Work safe, and remember all technical problems can be resolved with a hammer, the trick is knowing where to hit it and how big a hammer to use (I often find it may also help to have a spare bit in the shed to replace the bit you have just mullered
)
Work in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you.... 'O-no' the truck.

Removed the scuttle tray so the metal can be de-rusted then made good and refitted. I took the opportunity to remove many years worth of leaves, twigs and other vegetation from the revealed void.
That's the problem when the weathers been bad and you watch Car SOS and other car renovation programmes - you want to get the hands grubby and join in.

Truck:
Replaced the Centre Tie Rod, the ball joint on the steering gear drop arm was well loose (I had something like 15 degrees free movement on the steering wheel, the truck almost tacked when going down the road). On the other hand the ball joint on the lazy drop arm appears to be siezed solid.
Pretty near mullered a 'light truck' strength ball joint splitter getting one of the outer tie rod ball joints off the centre tie rod, had to get the impact gun on it for a few mins before it split, the joint splitter bent in the process.
Fabricating the winch bumper while the trucks in bits too.'
