I like the TD5 I've never had any problems as yet (cross fingers) I was assured buy seller that Bolt was checked and re-loctited just in case.
I'm about to blank off the EGR.
And can't wait to rechip it as well.
As to going outback traveling I think pre-checking is the go before going on any such trip.
We are about to return back to Rockhampton from Melbourne and I have to crawl under the girl and check fluid levels and will do a filter oil change when we get there.

Hey Col

Don't go knocking Brians "Big Red Rumbler" or it's ruggard truck motor

It only shakes from happiness because it is never really had to work hard in a Landrover, because it should live in a Nipponese 4-8 tonne truck which in most countries would be loaded with 14-16 tonnes

I need another Scotch my mouth is drying out

My P38A has both AF and metric. The AF sizes are, I believe, limited to the engine.

and some of the driveline bolts an my '98 Defender are AF/SAE threads.
The studs on the rear output flange on the t/case/hand brake come to mind.
