Well, the engine is finally back in and running 
No leaks which is a massive plus but the 4x4 light flashed for a few journeys but has now stopped and the ABS light has come on two or three times.
I only drove this truck for a few miles before it failed, is it normal for this engine to vibrate quite a lot at idle?

Most problems can be repaired but will the end result be worth the effort and expense?

The two engine mounts look decent, haven't checked the gearbox mounts yet.
Thought I had a problem with them as I have a noise like something is touching the bulkhead or chassis but I think it is my new down pipe needing a tweek.

Oh and yes I'm pleased so far but you always look at little noises and issues much more closely after doing a job like this.
