  2. very nice

    would i be right in thinking that these would not all apply to a 748R 02?
     
  3. Most of them are the same, but there are some important different ones for 748Rs
     
  4. cheers

    whats the doc you sourced them from? would i be able to easily source for my R?
     
  5. This all came out of the factory workshop manual for the MY02 748
     
  6. ok cheers
