Yesterday I had both tie rods and steering damper changed and wheels rotated and a wheel alignment done.
Got all of the wheels balanced.
The thrumming noise above 80kph
has gone. It is amazing how you
get used to a noise as it
progressively gets worse.
While I was at the tyre joint,
I got to compare the treads
on a set of maxxi bighorn
mud terrains and BFG
mud terrains.
Apart from a few minor
differences, the overall
tread depths and patterns
seem to be of similar design.
And the headache begins... gonna swap over intake manifold, new glow plugs and injectors.
Ugh! First hiccup. Different stamped letter of the new to old injectors.
picked uip the patrol after the service and investigating the grinding sound from the front end, seems that when i had the last wheel alignment they screwed the bump stop bolts back in so when i put the 35's back on the lugs on the muddies were running on the suspension arm, screwed them back out and the noise is gone, bit of a shiny spot on the arms but no damage to the tyres :)
Cut my losses and bought this dash cam

Spent a good five hours today under the bonnet. Manifold is off, new glow plugs in, injectors out and a few other things done. Just waiting on confirmation tomorrow about the different letter stamping on the new squirters to the old. From what i have found they are interchangeable, but i wanted to wait, just incase. Then its time to put it all back together.
I could have put the old glow plugs back in as they were still working, they were metal tipped too, and no missing tips. Thing is these have been in the motor since i have owned the car, around 100thou k's. And from what i know of its previous history, been in there for a previous 100thou. And no timer on them.
