its test day for the truck
12 years ago
well as some of you will know i have goten my self a nice lil toy truck.
and i have been working on it to get it back on the road.. and today was the big test day
and .....
it failed on 8 points
they were
offside rear brake pipe leaking
offdise front brake pipe corroded
nearside rear brake pipe kinked
nearside front (track rod) steering locking device missing
(steering box) steering locking device missing
(idle arm) steering locking device missing
exhaust leaking
and nearside front brake caliper bolt missing *dangerous*
so i have 2 new brake lines made up. and gotten a few packs of split pins
gotten a new exhaust gasket since it was missing.
and will "borrow" a bolt of a fronty i know.
so will be done this week and retested
but there is some fun bits on here
some of the advisorys are funny..
vehicle has body modifications ....
rear seats and belts removed....
bar close to swept area ....
so tbh it isnt as bad as it could have been seeing it had been off the road for 4 years. not started in 3 years.
it was great fun driving it along the road, i have forgotten what it was like to drive a frontera.. and i like
