Bought a jack and some Jack stands for $20 off gumtree, brand new still in their boxes. The Guys wife had decided it was time to clean the shed so he was just getting rid of stuff. Jacked the ute up, dropped the washer fluid reservoir out and gave that a good rinse, blew out the lines and hey presto, my washer jets worked again

Went to service the ute the other day, had it up on ramps, got under it, aaaaannndddd coolant dripping. Cracked radiator :(
Thankfully repco had one, so ended up replacing radiator, full coolant flush and change.
Also finally got the engine mounts changed over, motor now sits a good 25-30mm higher than before.
Just picked up my caliper kits as well this arvo, so going to do that hopefully going to do those on Monday
