Hey Guys, sos been busy with work alot lol, don't worry ive still got my surfy.
Decided to change everything yesterday and eventually managed to finish everything today.
That's the oil filter, fuel filter, Air filter, Engine oil, front diff and rear axle. I spent ages looking for the refill plug on the front diff, according to my Haynes manual it says its around the back so i sat there pondering why the hell its not
until i found myself looking at the refill plug rt in front of my eyes. 
Anyway after reading through some of your comments about filling the front diff and the local garden center not selling anything i could use i dived into my fishing tackle box and pulled out a large syringe i used for filling my bait with sardine juice
, works perfect he he he. ive filled the front diff untill it seeps back out of the refill hole but i notice that in cab warning light says its low? maybe needs a run to remind it its full.
From the look of the oil and and filters its been some time since anythings been done i must say the truck feels great after its surgery.
The fuel filter was rusty but once the new one was fitted ect the car has lost its stutter and sounds good with no hick ups at all, oh and the new batteries brought the electric system back to life. I feel like a new man lol.
Monday i start on the grease points once i find them
then onto the breaking system yippeeeeee.
Outstanding site comments has made my job easy so keep up with those ideas and thanks for reading my dribble. Oh and id like to say guys please please when you get your surf, change everything out cos i wish id done this sooner.
If there's anything else i can change out please advise
Regards, Ste
