I don't have a clue where top start.. So ill start here lol.
After last years MOT I had some points on the truck that needed work. It was the pan hard rod and the rear cross member had some rust starting.. So I went to my favorite mechanic and got a quote, in prep for my next MOT which has come round so fast!

I’m not sure I understand the pocket knives thing. However, if you’ve not already fixed it then it looks like your radius arm bolts and/or bushes are loose. The red rust trail is a dead giveaway of something moving and fretting.

Looks like it yes. Also looks like polybushes - when you replace them I’d swap for proper Metalastik rubber ones.

WOW, so its been well over a year since I last posted... But then again, the world has been on hold as were all aware.

I also took up walking to work... (when I wasn't furloughed...) So the truck has had next to no use, apart from taking me to the range...

However - I can happily say now, I have joined a new Facebook group that does regular (each month) green laning - and I'm booked with them to get out this month!

Boy I cant wait to get out with The Duchess - with people of the same interest. I haven't really taken much in the way of pictures as I haven't been out. I was going to share what i have taken, but im having issues, so, maybe next time! Regards
