Hi.. Names were Rashid... I don't know where from though. I hated having to beg them.. in the end they would only fit the part for cash no facture (reciept). On the mountain ranges: I had no low range... And come to think of it, of course I wouldn't . Not with fuse 37 installed! What a dummy I...

Hi All... Just to let you know I arrived back to England with the whole rig.. Truck is running sweet. Quick recap: Truck started making horrible Clunking noise underneath. Pulled over, got rescued and truck went to garage. They said gearbox gone... ....I wasn't convinced.. I got to work...

Solved!!! 2 issues here... No Drive: Removed fuse from holder 37 then had drive again! Clunking sound: Got truck on ramp... Rear U/J knackered. Thanks everyone

Hi stanleysteamer.... I pray for broken U/J or prop shaft... I won't make any decisions just yet.. I'll know more in the morning.. Regards
