Tried replying many times but there seems to be a problem? Dont know if it forum related.

I am running 205 70 15. Old tyres but will do for now. Looking at 215 75 15 soon.

Been busy working on the van the past few weeks.
Got it serviced after wrestling with the oil filter. Also been kitting out the back for my work. Needing a new radiator and will change coolant. Read that if I'm changing the Rad i'm aswell doing the belts? Any advice on belt changes? Cheers

Tinted the rear window the other day. Also started tackling the faulty 4wd system. The Vac hoses were wrecked so good job im doing that. Replaced 2m so far and still faulty. Still more i can replace though. The 4wd engages fine then after 20secs it starts flashing and the drivers side starts to click / clang and maybe jam slightly. Is it a hub problem too?

Also fitted a shiny new radiator, flushed the system and put in fresh coolant. The old radiator was literally falling apart!

If it's locking up it suggests cv joints are failing.

Just read up on CV Joints and it sounds exactly like the problem I have!

New £40 wheels! Colour is hammered black but actually looks different in the picture compared to real life.
