I have an AU I trayback which I have had for 4 years now...Not too many drama's

Leaking water pump o-ring-Replaced water pump

Leaking front crankshaft oil seal-replaced seal and fitted speedi sleeve to rear of balancer.

Leaking power steering hose-Fixed finally, I posted about this drama elsewhere on this forum..I still cant believe Ford fitted such a poxy setup.

Sagging hood lining-replaced by local trim shop..apparently when manufactured the cloth is barely long enough to fold over the moulding at the edges and this is where it comes away.

Broken rear axle studs-I have replaced almost all of these...I had new tyres fitted the other day and they broke the last two I have not replaced..I don't know the cause..I never overload the Ute or drive harshly.

Blown Intake Manifold gasket,caused by a faulty spark plug and the ensuing backfire-replaced gasket & plugs..The original plugs that were in it I got from the local Ford dealer they were nippon denso.I was told these plugs are prone to failure?..anyone comment?
