Well all in the space of only a few hours...i realigned my bullbar cos it was a wit wonky,took off the lower fan belt "keeper" cos it was a squeelin' , and drained my powersteer fluid a couple of times cos i had mistakenly put a few mills of brake fluid in there.
All in all very happy with myself.Had to try and get it done while my 2yr old was asleep,cos once he's up you get nothing done.

No worries about a coupla mills of brake fluid as all the ol' mechanics I know also add a table spoon into their engine oil as they say it keeps the seals n O rings from drying n cracking so no oil leaks, beats me but now I do the same & so far been a few years n no leaks. I am not saying you should.
