I am now, for one, officially not believing Luke is a real person. Someone is having a giggle at the expense of that fella on Facebook. Not playing anymore.

Then who is impersonating you on this forum, with all these posts that if true, appear to be writen by someone one hasn't got a clue how to safely work on a truck, or have it in a roadworthy condition.

That's OK Luke. You can drive around on the handbrake until you get them sorted.
Sand is a real enemy. Mud is safer.

Just thought I'd clear that up in case there were any confusion at all.

Thanks for that....I was wondering, or should that be wandering?


And going to university doesn't mean you can safely carry out repairs to the brakes and steering on your 2 tonne truck!

Get it looked at by someone who CAN fix it, if it had been done properly in the first place the brakes only need bleeding once!
