MOT failed today

[fridgman]

But surrprisingly very little. Brake pipes on the rear, both sides, from wheel to the limiter valve and offside front lower shock absorber bush. Having inherited the truck back in July I was worried that I was getting a long list.

Interestingly though both rear drop links have excessive play but are only on as advisories as they can't come apart :nenau

Not that bad really, I must admit I have never looked to closely at the shock absorber bushes.:nenau

Has anybody ever seen replacement bushes for these? Perhaps polybush or similar? The shock absorber is fine except for the bottom bush

Tried them today. Nothing on the website looked right so I emailed them but no luck. They do them for the rear but not the front :nenau

Got the retest done today and all well for another year. For very little wrong it became a nightmare. Whilst doing the brake pipes the clutch damper line started leaking, so I cut it off and left a stub zipped over with a quick blip from the mig as done by many other fellow members. Now I've got an odd clattery rattle from the gearbox whilst idling in neutral. It clears when you depress the clutch pedal. Anybody got any thoughts? Clutch and gears all work fine.
