it wasnt a 413 box it was 1 of the rare 410 5 speed box that i picked up for £5 wat a bargain and think the 4 speed box is better off road and the 5 speed is better 4 long trips

ahh right I was wondering if the 413 box would be a straight swap and as for paint I went a little over the top and bought a 5Litre tin considering the amount of rust I had I dont want it going back that way all I've done is brushed it on got 3 coats so far and only used about half the tin but will be giving it a couple more with a roller, you'd be surprised how it comes up I used truck paint...

i couldnt open my drivers door from in side of vehicle so i had to wind down the window use the out side handle to open the door. so i bought a new door mechanism and i still had the same problem so i thought long and hard and realised that the hook (i think thats what u call it well if not ive got a pic) wasnt in the right posision well what a day a least ive got a spare door mechanism that still works
