Spent the day in my garage pit spraying 8 cans of Dinotrol on the underside and wheel arches, What a joy being able to lift the road wheels off without breaking your back.

Fitted a Suzuki full sized load tray into the back. Was surprised I can get all of my pigeon shoot gear in. Will definitely help to keep the back seats and rear load area clean.

I have managed to get some significant things into the back of Dreadnaught. 8ft length of whatever will fit through on the diagonal and 4 decent sized bales of hay is possible quite easily. Bit of a TARDIS.

Got the front axel down and off and have started ripping the axle. Looks like it’s going to be king pin and bearings /seals kind of game.

Passed the mot today. Couple of minor issues being very minor surface corrosion on a fuel line and a couple of brake lines. Or more accurately the newbie doing the test took one of the scraper things to the waxoyl and found a couple of hints of red-brown. No pitting or deformation on any of the lines just somebody being over zealous. Recoated for now and might use as an excuse to do a full pressure clean and retreat when the weather improves.

Good to hear, what year is Dreadnought?

Edit, it says 2011 in your signature :)

Yeah it's always good to have a new ticket. Best bit the emissions were so low that the machine panicked and so did the tester and tried it 3 times until a senior staff came and straightened it out. Got to love watching the new guy suffering, not like we haven't all been there before.
