Cracked exhaust manifold?

Or.........You could buy mine!!! 92 Single Cab Dual ARB lockers 6" lift Custom tray 33" muds Snorkel Sliders Winch Bar Bucket seats.....blah blah blah. $12,500 Mine's done 260,000 and I change the oil and filter every 5,000k's. If you treat her nice and maintain them regularly they'll last you for ...

How old was the strap? Or how many times had it been used?

While we are really only after performance improvements, the increased efficiencies atleast goes some way to support the comments, thoughts and rumours from other sources....so we're on the right track. Hopefully by tomorrow night we should have some decent power gains which was the most important ...

It does sound promising...depending on the consumption of LPG compared with the saving of diesel.

"...You can easily add 50 to 150 HP to a turbo diesel engine and increase the performance..."

Can anyone substantiate this kind of power gain?!!! I was wondering whether it was legal to run such a system in NSW/Aus., and also is it adaptable for non-turbo cars also?

Now don't rip the piss, is it better to do this with the front end lifted off the ground. Dixie Ok, so its got to be stationary with the wheels in the air. Id like to see you drive down the road with your mate in the engine bay topping up the fluid! I asumed you would be smart enough to do it on ...

OK, my steering has turned to shite. I'm pretty sure the problem is the drag link balljoints. I can hold the drag link and wobble it back and forth with no effort at all. Should there be any movement allowed in this by hand? I noticed from past threads that you can tighten the drag link on either ...

Puuuuuuuuuuurrrrfect!

Thanks heaps mate.

Have searched around, but cannot find a clear schematic showing the hookup of a relay with spotties. Have done it before but forgotten what goes where?!!!

Any help would be appreciated.

Yeah I'd definately be interested in the 2" flared ones, but like already said, price would obviously play a large part.

Why? Cause its too much flex? Dicey on the road?

This may help a bit.

Sounds even more pricy! Maybe I'll just stick with another set of front leaves!!??

What would people recomend for a 2.8 diesel that's started slightly burning oil? Can't say I know too much about lubrication.

Thanks guys. I was worried that might be the case. Xover's just a bit pricy for me at the moment. I'll give it a go without, and then I can at least remove them if it's too flexy until I've got the $ for xover as well.

Considering my front leaves look like crinkle cut chips, I've decided to put a set of rear leaves I've got into the front. I'm getting a tailshaft spacer, but I need to know whether there's any other mods that need to be done to allow fitment, or should they just bolt straight in? Any ideas on what ...

Thanks mate...worked a treat.

Brand New

Just recently rebuilt and strengthened rear tail shaft...would recommend Hardy Spicer at Moorebank....but the centre bearing assembly squeaks as the shaft spins! I've only done about 40km's so far and it doesn't seem to be disappearing or getting worse. HS have never heard of it happening before. I ...

Thanks heaps guys.

Rear shaft has finally karked it after numerous bashes. Can anyone suggest a reputable tailshaft place in Sydney? I know of a few but most are pretty pricy, I.E. Metro @ Granville. I need a couple of uni's done but also want to get a thicker walled piping welded in and balanced. Western Sydney would ...

I'll be there.

I'm pretty sure Offroad Industries would.

Try This.

Why are LSD's suicidal in the front?

I'd be going for a long wheelbase GQ. They're brilliant for towing and touring and you'd get a pretty good one for less than $15,000. Whats more is that they're strong, reliable and relatively easy/cheap to work on. There are also plenty of them around. (How's that for a good rap considering I don't ...

I was also thinking of replacing my W-shaped springs with OME until I read this thread. I'll think otherwise now. I might sound a bit nieve, but what and how do parabolics work? Parabolics are normal length leaf springs that only run two thick leaves per pack, instead of 6 or 7 in normal packs ...
