Why is this thread called "Sticker Shock"?

Well I got it all worked out guys. The manual is totally useless when it comes to the correct assemble of these things unless you know the technical name for everything. If I had thought at the time I may have taken some photos to add to the Sticky How To... threads but I didn't. Give it a month and ...

BUMP!

C'mon, I know that at least one of you has some clue on how to put these back together properly. Don't make me figure it out on my own. Trust me I won't appreciate it more if I figure it out on my own. I'll just be pissed I wasted an entire saturday staring at hubs.

Dave.

If all else fails angle grind them off and then drill them out. I replaced all of my body mounts with 10 mm (or around 10mm) grade 8 high tensile bolts just to be on the safe side.


Dave.

I think your assuming that it is a bolt that drops down from above somewhere. Well it isn't a bolt. It is a stud. It does not have a head on it. It is threaded on both ends. The stud screws up into a captive nut that is welded to the body. The captive nut is not accessable unless you drill a hole in ...

Get a stud remover. Failing that use the double nut idea as someone has already mentioned. Have you got it out yet, how'd you go?

Hey Guys,

I'm after some advice on how to correctly reassemble the front free wheeling hubs on a 93 Feroza. (Yes Murcod, its getting put back together ;) ) I have the work shop manual and have reinstalled them as outlined however they will not unlock one I slot them into the locked position.

Is ...

Hey Guys,

A quick question for ye. I have a mate at work that's recently upgraded his suspension (lift) on his 1997 TD Cherokee. Its been in there for well over a month now and its been to the flinders ranges and back plus some local wheeling so its had plenty of time to settle. Now... The drivers ...

Dave,

You gotta try it yourself. Its not that hard at all. I did it by myself with a trolley jack. The only tricky part is aligning is getting the gearbox back on but as you won't be changing the clutch it should just slide straight back in.

You'll appreciate it sooooo much more if you do it ...

I haven't heard from Crowey in a while either. I've seen him out and about on the road though. Have you tried Oriental Wreckers - 8384 6055 in Lonsdale or Just Jap Auto Dismantlers - 8369 1899. Just Jap have had everything that I've ever needed however they do know how to charge and prices are ...

Hey all you Daihatsu folk,

Thought I'd drop by and say hi. It's probably been over a year since I last was here. For those of you who can remember me, the Feroza is still broken and is still missing a front diff! I just totally lack enthusiasm to fix it. I looked into a Hilux running gear ...

Any clunk in the drive train means $$$$! Especially if a mechanic is fixing it! Good luck, hopefully the bill won't be too bad. Hope your new suspension work out well for ya too.

Dave.

$900.00 sounds pretty good to me. I can't remember how much mine came to but it was more than that. I'm not sure how many leaves are in my pack, I can't even check as the Fez has been banished to my parents house. We aren't talking to her at the moment as she has a bad habbit of blowing front diffs ...

Hey,

The choice is totally up to you but I recon that new Torsion Bars are a waste of money. Just wind your stock ones up. Only get new ones if there is something wrong with your existing ones. Not all lifted after market springs are hard. I have 50mm lifted TJM springs in the rear of mine and they ...

I drilled the holes out because I replaced the existing studs with larger stronger ones. Sorry if I didn't make that clear in the previous post.

Ok, sorry.

It is a fairly quick job. You will need:

A highlift jack
A 13mm drill bit
A drill
Assorted spanners and sockets

I made mine out of nylon rod which is avaliable from Consoldated Bearing Company or any plastics shop. There are ten body mount positions. I used a lathe to make my raising ...

And shrink your piccies too next time. That size would be great if I wanted to use the pic as a wallpaper!

The old rear windscreen of my Fez was tinted before it smashed and the tint job was much neater than that! The bolts can be removed and once the tinting has set the can be put back in and tightened with out it effecting the tint. I'd take it back and do a song and dance about it. Ring consumer ...

Never mind post deleted. Got my jacks mixed up. That is all.



Dave

Are they Vitara Springs?

Have a look in a wrecker for some Ford F100, F150 rims etc. That is of course, if Rocky's have 5 stud rims.

Don't feel un-loved because thats just not the case. I love ya! I just can't help ya on this one!


Love Always.

I wonder if I'd get this type of polite attention if I put the word Girl in my nick name!

15x7 sunnies and 235/75 x 15 tyres will fit on a standard height Feroza no worries. I also think that size tyre is the biggest "legal" size you can go too.

If you go to the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) post there is a download link to the manual. Have fun and good luck!

Or click on the link below

Download the manual. All the info that you need is in there. It has step by step instructions and even pictures. You can't go wrong!

I'm not really doing anything out of the ordinary! It happened when the I was going up a slipper creek bank. The front left got in the air and started spinning and when it came down and bit into the dirt, the resulting the shock popped the diff. :cry: Oh and it also did the drivers side hub at the ...

In referance to the above picture. I've done it again and now hate my Feroza to pieces. The guy I got the diff off of won't cover it under warranty either. I was hoping that the refund would contribute to the conversion but I guess not!

Later.
