Thanks Mark, this is exactly what I needed. Still no response from the WA mob, think they may be licking their wounds after receipt of my scathing analysis of their performance and response. So when are you going to sort out that truck - I know I read the reply but no established timeline. You wont get to drive the family rig forever!

Bit the bullet and bought these chassis stiffener plates from PSR. May as well do them pre engineering and also safeguard the chassis. I already have weld in braces on the rear spring mounts however a little more thickness won't go astray I reckon, and certainly easier to install them when everything is straight instead of buckled and twisted.

Next lemon. At work, thinking about the car - of course, and realised the new fang dangled water pump supplied does not have a tapping point for the return line from the heater. WTF do I do with this hose, assuming I still want a heater?new Pump.jpgold pump.jpg Top image is new pump, bottom is old setup showing the hose on left that has been removed from service???

Not quite the solution I was looking for, but its an option I guess.

At times it feels like death by a thousand lashes, but I am sure it will work out. The annoying thing with this one is how can a company supply an upgrade kit that is non functional? I will have a look at the original water pump and ascertain what the relationship is with the hose and then see if the solution is a drill and tap of a fitting into the pump snout. Just half arsed at best.

what water pump are you running?
Mine has the outlet for the heater, but my pump flange has 4 bolts, yours appears to have 5.
