the thick washer should be the bearing backing washer, stops the bearing cone turning against the locking nut. You should already have that washer inside your assembly. ahhh.. thought it looked familiar! thanks dude. so the thick washer would sit against the bearing, then the locking nut goes on ...

Thanks for the replies guys!

Still no idea what that other thick washer is meant to be for.. any ideas?

hey guys just got a quick question regarding the gq to gu hub nut conversion.. I got a kit off Hobzee and it came with the locking nut, locking washer and some screws. But it also came with a 3-4mm thick plate with a locating tab on it. Can anyone tell me what this is for? I am also assuming that ...

Talked to Shane yesterday and as far as I know at the moment they aren't open. But if you leave a message on the answering machine he will call you back

Yer you sure can use them, but if it has burrs from being used on old steel rope it needs to be repaired to smooth before you use it Just what I wanted to hear! I have a couple of brand new unused snatch blocks and was looking at buying a winch with rope, but didn't want to buy a winch with rope ...

Might seem like a silly question but I did some searching and couldn't find anything...

Normally snatch blocks are used for wire winches, can you use a snatch block on a synthetic rope winch? It will feed through, but will it damage the rope at all?

Cheers

I agree with the cracking all the nuts and bolts before jacking the car up ONLY if you are going to lift it high enough to take the front wheels off the ground. I only used stands to take some of the body weight away from the front diff so I could move it around if need be, but the wheels were still ...

easy to do at home, did it last weekend with the help of the missus! to be safe I did the following: 1: Support front of car on chassis/axle stands ( I put the stands under the gearbox crossmember) 2: Remove front swaybar from vehicle 3: Undo the tie rod off 1 end, you can swing it out of the way ...

Croydon auto elecs. rose avenue croydon. they get all of my work and have done for 20 yrs. My ex girlfriends old man was a mechanic and put me onto them. Never had a problem with anything they have done including custom work. Second that, my girlfriends dad is a mechanic and uses him aswell! Out of ...

No Worries. Get the sparky to check your power too. Most house holds run off a 15 kva transformer per two houses in the country. IE each house 7.5Kva. If the transformer is closer to your place than the neighbor you shouldnt have any probs with a 20amp point if your wiring form your swithboard is ...

Thanks for that Troy, I didn't think about the plug! I have to get a few new points installed anyway, but I didn't think about a 20 amp point The unimigs are looking like the way to go especially for the price

Slunnie, how do you find the BOC and Unimigs? I looked at the procraft 210 and 240 but have heard they sometimes have overheating issues. They'll both be really good welders for home use, buggies, rollbars, bullbars etc and the welds they put down are fine. The machines are just a bit light on and ...

As for the phone number I will try to find it.

Thanks mate! I might give them a buzz

Thanks for the info so far guys, its been much appreciated! I might start looking more into these inverter welders, something light would be nice

Slunnie, how do you find the BOC and Unimigs? I looked at the procraft 210 and 240 but have heard they sometimes have overheating issues. KUSTOMV840 - how have you found the new inverter welders? what are you welding with it? The 250 like you have there is a good price and has a good current range ...

where abouts? or do they have a website or something like that?

WRXZook, where did you pick up your welder? what was it worth without the spool gun?


cheers for the info so far guys!

I bought a Weldmaster 220amp about 2 years ago and love it has a 10 year waranty on it and only just recantly it stoped feading the wire through took it back 15min later all fixed and i use it every 2nd weekend. thats one more to add to the list to have a look at! what type of stuff do you use it ...

Honestly plenty of threads on MIG's..

I have looked through quite a few of the threads but haven't really found anything about inverter migs..

Hey guys, just doing some research into getting a mig welder at the moment. I was looking at the Cigweld tansmig 200. But I have also come across inverter mig welders? has anyone used these? are they any good? I want to use the welder for doing sliders, rear bars, some body work on the car like ...

Im going to get under the car and measure the spaces between the coils on each coil to see what differences there are as I have a feeling that the passenger coil has failed. Im going to get the spacer off my supplier to see whether they drop further though.. if it drops further I definately want a ...

check your bodymounts!! Mine doesnt sit straight and its because the bodymounts are knackered checked all mounts.. none are squashed or falling apart. going to swap front springs over and see if that helps. if not, going to swap them back and put a 30mm spacer in to see if the spring sags even ...

At least 95% certain it was close to even before the trip out... Im going to have a good look under it tomorrow. But from looking at it the springs are seated correctly, they are fitted in the correct sides (tag still on one of the springs). I will have to check they are rotated correctly

Hey guys need some advice please.. In december I had a 3" lift kit fitted with dobinson springs all round and Lovells Gas Legend shocks and a few other goodies like Mecavel drag link, swaybar disconnects, adjustable panhard rods front and rear and superior extended lower arms. Now the problem I have ...
