Severe internal rust can cause the chassis rails to thin and eventually snap in half, typically behind the cab. This is a major safety issue in the UK.
- Timing Chain Stretch (Simplex to Duplex)Serious
The original single-row timing chain is prone to stretching or snapping. Many owners upgrade to a stronger "Duplex" double-row chain.
- Half-Shaft Oil Seal FailureModerate
The rear half-shaft seals can fail, leaking differential oil onto the rear brakes and wheels.
