Fourtrak TDX

Forum: 

I own a 20 Year old Fourtrak TDX which has 128,000 miles on the clock and always starts on the first attempt , Does not use any oil and everything still works, Great Truck and I love it as I have owned it for many years, Had some welding to sills but not much.
I will not sell it as it serves me well.
Also own a Sirion MK11 Auto as does my Wife so 3 Diahatsu's in our Family.
Hope Fourtrak will be collectable come another 10/15 Years as early examples are getting rare now.

Extol Van front Brakes - irregular wear on near side.

Forum: 

Had an odd graunching sound from the n/s front wheel reported to me by her in doors on her little van. On inspection the outside pad was worn right down so I assumed the rest to be the same. A bit of huffing and puffing got the caliper bolts out and the offending pad came out. It was just onto the metal on its leading edge but the inside pad looked barely worn. I ordered up a new set and set to looking at the offside. All was fine with plenty of pad left. So I intend now to remove the offending n/s caliper and check its cylinder.
