Starting to feel like I'm making progress now.

Found some Lamborghini cab mounts that will do the job, got one side done just the other to do.


Re piped the two air switches and 4wd and difflocks appear to work well so I'll leave them on air. However the top of switch seems to be missing a few teeth, can you buy this individualy?
Trying to push the pipe onto the barbed tails is always a struggle I found a heat gun worked best after the cup of boiling water failed me, anyone any other bright ideas?

Brian/moose the trailer air valve switch thingy, any ideas what it's actually for? It made the air chamber in the chassis do its tsh tsh ( technical term) thing but that seemed all its only a mom valve no detent.

I have removed a load of extra wiring and had the rear wheels off to lubricate the calipers and make sure the wheel nuts aren't seized.

I also welded up the gouges in the chassis where the tree spade had been gassed off.

The fuel tank has the engine feed and returns bolted into it however there are two more pipes coming out and going no where, are these the originals or aftermarket? ( night heater or similar?)
Extra pipes:


Finally does anyone have trailer air brakes and would be willing to take a picture of where their air lines from the trailer couplers connect to the various valves in the chassis? I have two blanking caps on the air chamber and another on a little 3 port valve at the other side of the air valves, I also have this knackered pipe that runs up to the master cylinder area.


Hoping to have cab mounts, air system and diesel system finished this week, then I can start on a back body. Hopefully found a waterpump through kramp so there's that to fit and some new tie downs for the bonnet.

Will.
