superior engineering has a huge range of ruffstuff heims in stock as well as all the spacer and weld in bungs Good to see. I like RS heims but they're a bit painful to deal with. If Mick's going to stock them and the aussie customer can deal with Mick instead of the guys there then that's a big ...

There is also the possibility of downgrading the level a bit and getting rid of the big drop offs and rock ledges to make it less demanding on the vehicles. also possibly consider introducing a second class that would ...

flow control valve is stuck, undo the outlet fitting (and hose) and you will be able to see the flow control valve. You should be able to easily push it in with a small screwdriver as behind it is a spring about 16mm dia and ~50'ish mm long. Use a magnet to get it out, if its really stuck sometime a ...

Re: Nascar Gearboxes - 4 speed Jerico etc.
Patrol does look like a good option. Are they available in 2wd - in a truck or something that I can pillage the output housing and flange off? Would they be stronger than the tremec 6060 that's also rated to 700ftlbs (just shy of 1000nm) in magnum form? I would think that the steel case is stronger ...
