[Dave.79]

G'day all, I got a gq td42 its done 265k, havent had it too long..wanting to give it a major service what things should i be lookin at doin? pump and injectors have been done. any feedback appreciated.

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

g'day Dave, can I suggest you get a glass of something suitable, and then take a look at this thread from general mechanical section of this forum

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 :-) )
