Congratulations buddy !! Looking fresh mate much love from Dorset

[@Jacksh12]

Very well done Ali. Keep it up mate.

Cheers Ali, that Aircon Pump Looks solid enough but you don’t know where these Parts are made half the time. That 40 tonner problem hasn’t just happened, if it’s been out then it’s been a quick refit and the mounting Bolts haven’t been tightened properly. If it had started vibrating a while back then that’s down to the operator. See you on the next one 🤙

Yes Ali that dump truck deffintly needs to be in a workshop Far better to work on and dry . No chance you could have done anything to it .👍👍
