Belted the left rear wheel arch for clearance purposes. Got new tread. Lost clearance...
Currently in for a full wheel alignment.

Put some Nulon mineral 20w-50 in it. So far; impressive stuff for a few bucks.

Found some oil in the water, the LIM gaskets doth beckon, time to get some lifters and end the procrastination.

I personally am a MASSIVE fan of Nulon oils. All my vehicles run on it. Engine, trans, diffs, power steering and brakes.

No more scrubbing! Wheel alignment and paid rego.

I plasma cut the chassis strengthening off the last piece of my written off Clubby today (the driver side sill). Going to copy this one for the other side as that one is a little bent.



The bent side.

Got replacement steering wheel buttons off eBay.

The seller didn't mention the middle Next button has damage and was 'fixed' with silicon..

Also found out, that despite my current ones being backlit, and the 'replacement' ones having the exact same part numbers, etc there is no part number difference between backlit and non-backlit buttons... hmm..

Now to try and get a refund and try again.

Well the guy owned up to fixing them and giving a refund once he receives them back.

Now to hunt around for second hand ones again..
