without seeing them together its very difficult to advise accordingly

if the paj is rumbling from the bottom end then get rid, as long as your mate is aware of this potentially expensive fault?

As for the fronty's i don't know anything about them, but if the tin worm has set in be aware of corrosion to body work, chassis mounting points, etc... ( all mot failure places)

well frounteras ummm my experience with them is not good, these are some of the things to look closely at
fuel lines from back to frount they rot very badly so check them
2 get under it and make shure solid
3 if the oil presure is low to none when driven or when it gets warm be wear as with mine it was a sign the engine was about to let go
4 if the engine rattels at all do not buy it or you will be looking at rebuilding or replacing the lump
these are the few things I have found out the hard way, but if you are lucky enough to get a good one (there are some very good ones out there)  you will have a good motor comfort very,  economy are any of our trucks
