It looks like the truck is going to be riding in the weeds what with where the diff is and the high route of the exhaust , is it going to be a speed bump scraper:thumbs:. Pete

Always helps to have some ground clearance mate.

Well the truck is back at mine with new engine fitted, feels strong, just how strong i'll have to wait and see once the running in miles are done and its had another oil change. Just bought a 3:1 ratio remote brake servo, thought it was about time i considered slowing down instead of speeding up for a change. New toughened glass fitted in the doors as the previous laminated panels were cracking in the heat (and door slamming). Just got the bed to remake and then its 'done' (for now).
