started a grating noise on saturdays laning and thought it was grit in the discs .. carried on through sunday and seemed to be coming and going :?

removed half of snowdonia with a pressure washer this morning and gave the discs a good blast when i put my 18" wheels back on ... took it for a drive ....still grating !!! :twisted:

seemed to be coming from underneath the car , so quick jack up and spin the rear wheels ... turns out a bash plate that seems to protect the exhaust union had bent and was rubbing on the propshaft ... took it off and "mended " it with a mallet , refited and jobs a good'n :dance:

then i went out and bought a new number plate at the princely sum of £12-99 :| to replace the one stolen from me by the carwash ..hehe

It was already loose after some one reversed it to it :evil: , and I did bolt it and Cable tie it before I came away,but i hit a big rock and a bank on the Sunday,as I was not looking what I was doing :oh yer:
In that picture the only thing is holding that bumper on is my nudge bar and my two shackles and two cable ties holding the plastic liner under the wheel arch :lol:

Re: WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY! by jontera on Tue Sep 27, 2011 6:12 am
had to take the battery out and re-charge it, as for some reason it didn't have enough power to start the truck..strange really, as it was fine when i left work but couldn't start over when i stopped at the local shop on the way home..no signs of alty not/over charging and the gauge was roughly at normal..mind it has always been a little bit of a "lazy" starter when starting from cold, never when warm though..
The greatest lesson in life is to know that even us idiots are right sometimes

Fixed my rev counter.

Stopped working when I dropped down a gear to go around a roundabout ... working normally after exiting the roundabout and giving the dial cluster a sharp whack.

done a little to mine today , fitted replacement glow plug relay , and sorted the exhaust temp, just got to blast all the chassis and spray underneath with duck oil, just to freshen up and then it will be time to take it for a mot, and go from there spend more money on this or sell and get a newer model ,but seeing as i've got this far should really give it a blast and see whats what. :dance: just pleased she starts under her own steam for now :drink:
