Took it for a wof and it failed, i knew it would because i saw the brake machine dials
failed on.
-left rear brake lens and reflector faded
rear brakes imbalance
park brake imbalance
right front outer tie rod play
steering box leak

not too major, glad the rust was sorted (well he didnt notice another patch that i found the other day). have ordered a new pair of tail lights (the other side is cracked as well so may as well), picked up the tie rod and il have to open up the brakes this weekend to see whats up. it failed on this last time too according to the sheet i found behind the seats, so i bet they never fixed it and conned a wof pass.




So, steering box had a bit of a leak. ID'd it as a 2nd gen l200/starion/dodge d50 box. ordered a kit from the states

stripped it down, input and output seals were dried out, output seal shattered to bits when I removed it. Teflon inside was looking sad and the fluid was pretty dirty

tight as to pull it out, but not as bad as it could be






Also, here are the VN gauge faces inside an L200 cluster, i will need to think of how to do the idiot lights, but its a close match

the housing will need to be cut up, and il make a new loom for them (original is a plastic pcb that bends and cracks) and i will be deleting half of the commodore idiot lights
