Didn't think you could actually do anything Arron ? Thought the ol drive in and let your workshop do it mentally worked flawlessly hahaha

Can do anything (qualified mechanical not just tinkerer). Didnt want to do the job , but its urgent. Drive in , drive out rules. In my lifetime I have spent more time working on vehicles than I wish to remember.  The good jobs I enjoy. 

 

Tinkerer-- that's a bit harsh, you do good work JET....

Rear pads. Took 30 mins both sides in the driveway. 

They were squealing on light application so I thought shag it I'll change em. Turns out the old ones had heaps of meat left. They didn't have the shims on the back of them though like the new ones do. Plus I added the red goo to the pads to help.

Right rear wheel well. Random number. There isn't one on the left side. 

Yes I cleaned the cradle.

Half way through changing the inlet manifold gasket on the AU. What a sh-t job. Need smaller hands.

 

Job done. Fixed the rough idle ( vacuum leak).   Shoving my hands under the manifold has sure made them sore.  Lucky I have a good range of tools.   Some of the lower  bolts were pricks. 

 

Ratchet 10mm ring spanner and 1/4 inch rotating ratchet saved the day
