speed requires accurate, controlled movement.
Off Rd requires flexibility.
IF IT'S NOT A NISSAN.
THEN IT'S A COMPROMISE

Gave it a wash. Topped up oil. Removed and refitted the turbo oil feed as it was leaking. Tomorrow must adjust the handbrake as it is so slack that on the flat in gear it just rolls along. Will check suspension and steering bushes while under there as well.

Took roof cage off, hit it with a wire wheel and coated with a rust inhibitor, tomorrow hit it with a kill rust primer and sometime during the week will hit with 2 coats of kill rust gloss black.
It was getting a bit rusty on the base and changing the color of my roof when it rained
