We have joined you both Chuck & Lesley in spending mega $ on vehicle. Were supposed to pick car up to-day, from Cousin doing service, but got a phone call saying he found something that needed to be done- about $300 more. Bugger.
Hell it was hot on the tennis court thismorning.

As I said in the email... better that now than a lot more later.
Assume the cousin is doing 'mates rates' ?

> starting from the front!
> radiator flush... was it embarrassed?
> front bearings... well, they are up the front so fitting a compass is a good idea.
> front brakes... then get it fixed!
> front main bushes... a bit of gardening should fix that.
> front sway bar bushes... ditto
> engine mount cracked... nutty as a fruitcake >>> psycho?
> turbo check... nah...plastic is more convenient.
> transfer case oil leak fixed... at that age... a little incontinence should be expected.
> diff split & sealed... yeah, well... not all relationships go the distance.
> rear sway bushes... swaying in the rear huh? Still, better than sagging!
