Weathers not looking too god this Sunday Vince. What do you wanna do?

Spooky!!! I've just been researching the weather forcast for the week-end, and around where you are, it's downpours all day for Sat and Sunday.
Considering we'll be outside most of Sunday, it's looking a little bleak.
I would say come to mine, but you'd get your truck in the workshop. but you won't get it out after the body lift!!!

Happy to leave the go/no go decision until Saturday if you like, if you're not planning on anything else.

Raptor mine is still for sale! And I'll take less than £6500! Fancy a trip to Leighton Buzzard? Read my other posts and you'll see why I have to sell...........
(And it sounds just like the one your man turned up in)

what xtra's on the service did they pickup on??....£850 on top sounds exessive.
nice motor...just the type i am after, have you changed the rad cap thermostat ect that is reccomended.

Here’s the list;
Control arm
Link stabilz 2
Oil seals 2
Oil seals 2
O ring 2
Gasket 2
Brake shoes
Wheel bearing 2
ABS ring 3
Retainer 5
Circlip 2
Rear bearing 1
Seal 1
The service was done before this work, these are the things that needed attention after I had it serviced so the full service is not included in this price.
I have now learnt that wheel bearing failure is a common fault and its definitely worth checking before you buy Raptor .

Why do I need to change the rad cap? I will do a search on here later.

Note to self got to pay my subs , best advice money can buy on here.

not so much that the wheel bearings are a problem... it's a 10 year old car, so it's to be expected really.

it's not a dificult job... just a bit of a pain in the ass.

the half shafts come out in about 5 mins... getting the shrink rings etc. off is a pain... better to cut them off and replace with new.

[RAPTOR]

better dust my toolkit off ready for the new arrival...

just waiting for the loan to come through and then the search begins
