Now doing the front calipers so that will finish a complete overhaul of the whole 20 year old braking system including the hydro boost unit, complete set of braided lines, new slotted rotors front &...

You won’t...

They probably would cure over time anyway with brake heat but baking...

Decided to paint the calipers but need to bake them in the oven tomorrow before fitting the new...

I was advised that the 'chicken' one didn't always fit depending on which starter motor you had. Mine was a big aftermarket starter so I made one from some scrap colorbond guttering and pop rivets.

Ah, but its only messy if you dont make a little drip tray for the filters with a drain pipe that goes behind the starter :)

Giving it a rad flush and switching from green to red coolant. I didn’t know they did a diesel specific coolant until I recently did a search to see what Nulon was offering now.
If this stuff...
Added a pair of DRLs. $30 from Amazon, aluminium frame not plastic.
Switch on with alternator charge, switch off when side/headlights on.
