Anyone offer a relative novice a useful check list to go through with my LD150 mk3 after its spent the winter months being wrapped up in the garage in storage?

Thanks in advance for any advice offered.

- tires, check pressure and condition (tread remaining, sidewall cracks, visible damage).
- oil levels in the diff and transmission
- cable adjustments on the brakes and clutch
- grease all fittings (fork spring and pivot arm bushings, rear suspension pivots
- check steering bearings for play
- check every nut and bolt for tightness especially axle and wheel nuts (vibration loosens everything)
- fill with fresh fuel mixed with good 2T oil at 4%
- start
- check all your lights while warming up
- ride around the block three or four times and then trim the idle as required
