If you get it MAKE SURE IT'S GOT A FULL TOOL KIT !
I switched the tyres today and used by hydraulic jack on the rear, the handle's short and had to get under Hippo, when I lowered the truck it's a shock to the system having 2/12 ton descending on you
My Toyota jack has the long handle but no T piece for the end, made raising the front tough on the old mitts

i carry a liittle trolley jack in my truck trev +abig f#ck of steel plate lol
here are some pictures from viewing the surf earlier.
bad points: few dents and scratches on body work, tyres needed replacing very soon, musty smell inside (he could have cleaned it), rad had cracks like what mine did have, coolant was too low to see it in the rad, may have had slight oil leak - bash plate looks like it had been wet.
Good points: exhaust looked sound - no rust or seam rust/split, back end underneath looks clean, alloys looked nice, engine bay clean, oil not too black, started nice, doesnt smoke (although it had recently been run it ws warm), all the doors closed nice and smooth, central locking worked from what i see.
judging the overall standard of truck i wouldn't say it had been looked after,
rad was empty and truck had been run so dont know what damage has been done [no water under truck ]
to be honest theres a lot better trucks out there for that money
i would not buy that truck
