The jack handle on a land rover is going to be the most worn out part! Probably the only bit that is engineered properly. They knew how much the jack would be needed. Plus, anything that is used under a land rover will never rust. All the oil leaks make sure of that! Good stuff Roothy.

Good call on the coolant too. I did a change not long ago. The coolant bottle said that it could be used with tap water and I was dumb enough to believe it. I now have a radiator full of silt and scale! Premix all the way.

Tough dogs those two Roothy, roundin up Tojos like that, good thing they didn't try to nose the beast. Do me a favour champ and throw some safety glasses on when you pick up a hammer or use that grinder or any other power tool for that matter. You'll find it hard to drive those tight tracks with one eye and no depth perception, look after those young fellas as well. Cheers Mate.🍻
@michaelbrown85457 жыл бұрын
Shane Pattison the safety glasses is easy fixed I'm in my fifties and wear glasses for everything but sleeping just pay the extra for safety lenses and its sorted. I have been a heavy equipment fitter for 30 years and have had 3 workmates die on the job in that time, none were idiots. Have also seen 2 blokes lose sight in one eye from power tools used by someone else, thus my advice for Roothy to set an example and look after his young fellas. Cheers mate.🍻

Hey John. I don't think you should call the truck Milo 2. It maybe wise to call it OMO after the washing powder. Green for Milo, Blue for Omo washing powder. Its marvelous what a difference Milo Makes but OMO is the next generation. Cheers
