    All oils and filters Engine, transfer case, gear box front and rear diffs, get your self an oil pump either manual or air if you have a compressor, these babys take heaps of oil. Make sure you can undo the filler plugs before ya drain your oils is a good tip

    IF YA DONT GET STUCK YA AINT TRYIN HARD ENOUGH........OR YA TOOK THE CHICKEN TRACK

    All filters and oils, power steering oil, brake fluid, belts, check all bushes, wheel bearings (inspect/adjust/replace). Cooling system flush and new coolant(I would remove radiator and give it a good clean too). Valve set. Check all your mounts engine, gearbox etc. Check driveshaft unis. There is prob some i have missed hopefully others will fill in the blanks.

    Like growlers said & jack it up n check front wheel bearings for too much play or leaking hubs seals n also while your going check your brake pads
    then you'll cruise trouble free for a while

    Yep, I reckon it's a masterpiece Dave, and a credit to the knowledge and attitudes of those who contributed (I'm not one of them :-) )
