WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY!

will have to talk with the boss first, drifty will call you tomorrow

Fitted a manual throttle to increase engine power when using a winch

Nice one Fudge ... they look a treat. I especially like the tractor tyre on the back

Just remember you said that not me!!

I will have a long chat with you Andy and make you see all the options :wink:

He is being faithful but he just has mad ideas sometimes :lol:

Well today I drove the car :shock:

first time in two weeks as been sharing the Mrs's car for work as mine costs more than twice as much for the 50 mile round trip :oops:

Anyway it didnt start :shock:

turned the key and all electrics on but nothing happened, tried again...nothing, them again boom it jumped into life, so looks like a bit of corrosion on the earth or starter (starter brand new two years ago) have a spare in the man zone anyway :wink:

Today I attempted to go up the workshop in the 2.8lwb...
but the DMF (i think) destroyed itself 100yds from the house...
managed to limp it home, lost my rag with it and the window came off its runner in the door out of sympathy for the clutch (aided by the way I slammed the door with a well aimed size 12 rigger boot)

It was a lucky thing that the frag wasnt open today as I have proper had it with my every growing collection of dead trucks and they would have been welcome to 10tonne up of VX's/isuzu's finest...and I would have had a clear drive at home...

Tommorow I will decide whether to cut it up or fix it, and the fate of the others...lucky the gas-axe is up the workshop or it would have been cut up today... :twisted:

Bolt it solid .... its been quite a successful thing to do Gregster

Finished doing the Turbo swap and threw in a quick Oil change for good measure. Oh and it got a trip to the car wash as well, not that you'd notice cos I went round some of the err more remote parts of the area on the way home :oops:

All in the interest of testing the new (for me) turbo out of course. Truck now needs another wash :roll:

striped it down

Finally got the cv boot done today,when the rain and snow stopped but I found that I need a new track rod end on the drivers side now.
