in over 100 degrees heat today the axle went in & the other spring went on, just brakes, hubs, halfshafts, drums & oil & it's sorted, started it up today after about 3 days, the oil pressure went straight up to 60 psi within a couple of seconds :thumbs:

If you find your way to this bit, find the "BB-Code" and at the bottom left toggle the setting to "Full Size" to display grey. Then copy and paste the link and it will display a compressed picture in your post, this will display full size if clicked on...
