Exactly what I needed, I'd once again be scratching my head without this forum :) I'll attempt this over next coming few days because of work I'm not around the truck - I don't use it to go to work though so i'm not just driving it anyway. While that happens, can you advise on the correct...

So engine is OK to start temporary with the belt off? Forgot to ask that in the first post as that'll make it easier to tell. Cheers, Mark.

Howdy! 300TDI sounds like death! I've got a cracking noise rather than a clicking noise. The cracking is louder than the engine if that makes any sense so can be heard when stood well away from the engine. The cracking sounds metallic, like a crushed bearing rotating and I'm hoping its...

Long reply! Lots been happening but i'm a little behind on the picture front before we're back to 'current affairs' So sit back grab a coffee and let your wifi bring in this little lot.

Damnit! I've got the worlds largest can of tetrosyl underseal as well just waiting for the day it'll get used on something! I remember buying it before as it dries hard rather than staying sticky - i dont like stained dogs. I guess that'll be worth its weight for doing all the other bits...

Ahh indeed sorry if i made it sound like i was just going to paint the truck and leave it! I have more pics to post. Reason for wanting the paint colour is so i habe some ready mixed on the shelf for when the spanners come out. For example if im going to underseal the chassis afrer wire brush...

First thing is have one of you lovely members tell me what colour it is as the local paint shop doesnt have a code to match and plate in bay is blank. There is a secret code to get into the truck which consists of crossing certain fingers and swearing at it in an organised yet firm manner with...

Edit again - Thread back to life and pictures etc starting to be done properly from page 2. Pictures full size as the thread goes on, page 1 is a right mess sorry EDIT: Due to photobucket no longer hosting all of my photo's went down. I am slowly working through adding the images through...

The time has come!!!!!!! Now the new owner of the truck whoop whoop! Not on the pc so can't upload photos at the moment. Have already found electrical woes in the dash and the oil leak is worse than i thought. This also isnt helped by a water leak - these things are sent to test us hey...

Called, didn't get a dedicated discount or anything to do with Landyzone (i.e the greenlane and modifications part), Can you get in contact please. Am existing customer for last 5-6 years but quote is over £300 more than others I have received.

I like the fresh shiny jobs! I wouldn't say go take a fresh paint job and 'rat' it up but when they are already 'rat' from years of use you can't replicate that easily by taking a fresh one and making it look 'rat'. Hopefully that makes more sense! I'm not saying going and destroy a new paint...

Tidy Job :-) - What unit is that?

Looks good! I may be one of the select few who actually liked the 'look' of it as is, shows some history and just makes it look like a bad ass truck!

Hello :-) A good debugging.. last owner have nits? :-p

Great stuff, to be honest ive not checked the condition for wear.. just went with the complete opposite approach to closing the door then i do in any car ive had.. Slam it! Really grinds my cogs when people slam my door to shut it but i guess i'll be getting used to that! I'll fettle as required...

So.. Time for another little lot of piccies! Just to the left of the spring here is a bracket, one hole in it and seems to be spaced away, is this normal? Bulkhead corner looks pretty clean? The surface rust of the bulk will come off with some elbow grease me thinking looks just like its on...

Thanks for the replies so far! These are questions i can ask regarding cross member etc. Currently replying on my phone but i will log onto PC in a few hours and upload more photos. What i do know is he said that the rear area was very recently welded.. Regarding meet up's im game on! And will...

So this post is useless without pics right? (Sent more to upload but not come through yet) I don't want to ruin the surprise but your thoughts on these pics would be good. How would you go about dealing with the surface accumulation? Anything look alarming?
