OK, if we're on this type of subject, in approx 90,000, I replaced about 7-8
UJ's, 3 diff's, 5 O/D's,
3 gearboxes, 2 cylinder heads, 5 front verticle links(4 snapped, 1 bent), 3
bonnets, 1 softtop, 4 steering joints, 2 racks, 1 dizzy, god knows how many
track rod ends/balls joints and wheel bearings, and 3 rear springs! Who says
these things are cheap to run!!! :-) And no, these are NOT exaggerated
figures!!!, although sometimes I replaced knackered parts with s/h ones!!! :-)
