I guess I've been spoilt by the last ten years working as a mechanic and having a hoist to work on.
Where I work now we don't have that much call for a hoist with the work that we do. My shed is only a 6m x 6m and it's that full of $^!# that I can't get a car into it. I have to work outside with no shade. The backyard doesn't have any decent drainage and if it rains the backyard fills with water. Not much fun when you have to lie on your back to get your truck going so you can get to work Monday morning. The boss has been talking about getting a hoist for the workshop so I hope he does it soon. I've got a few "foreigners" lined up for it already.

Yeah, I've been spoilt. My last job was repairing old Land Rovers that had been thrashed by backpackers on Fraser Island. They were all covered in oil and sand and did I mention they were Land Rovers (boo, hiss
). My current job now is pretty cushy, I've just been promoted to foreman and all we do is build tray bodies on new Land Cruisers for Ergon Electricity and build new custom plate alloy boats. I guess I'm starting to go soft.

I'll find some pics for you. They're just Electricity Board vehicles. The cruisers are factory twin locked, turbo diesel, twin fuel tanked, PTO winched, A/C, P/S, etc.... We also do Ford Falcon utes, Rodeos, Tritons, Hiluxes, Navaras and also Isuzu NPS 300, Isuzu FRR 500, Mitsubishi Canter 3.5, Hino Dutro and Ford Transits. The majority of our work is the Land Cruisers though.
Is your wagon allright or what?
No major malfunctions?

Yeah still Ok. Been keeping a watchful eye on the gauge since fitting it and it still seems to be OK, the OEM gauge must be reading low. Haven't heard the ticking noise again since, I must have scared it away.
