Outer Limits 4x4 Board

maybe a dumb question - but this clicks when going in a straight line, thats why i was thinkg it may be the diff and not the cv....

am i an idiot

When he puts it in 4wd it clicks when he drives. every 3 - 4 sec. won't do it in 2wd tho. Any thoughts?

Sup,

My little bro did something to his front diff last weekend up at cruiser and just wondering if anyone could recommend a place (preferably in north brissy) to get it checked out. Any advice or recommendations would be awesome.

Cheers
Scotty

ok this may seem like a completly stupid question, but i have a similar problem. i pulled the drums off the rear and the shoes have heaps left on them, so i just pulled everything all apart and cleaned them all up and greased them all up and put them back together and set the clearance. they are ...

Thanks heaps.

Will look into next week hopefully.

Cheers

Looking to get some extractors and a decent exhaust set up in the next week or two, and just wondering if anyone could give me the name of somewhere in north brissy.

had a couple of mates get them done at a few different places, and none of them seem 100% happy with what they got.

i can't see any external leaks, but i will go over it in more detail. with the amount its using tho, i'd assume it would be quite easy to spot. can you get delo from a caltex servo? i will drop in a bottle of engine oil cleaner and then try a change sometime this week, new filter and a bottle of ...

I thought penrite was good oil? where do i get this dello from - don't think i have seen it at supercheap. Repco maybe? Anything worths a shot. Its still using about 300-400mls of oil a week???

thanks for your help tho mate. appreciate it.

ok so i checked the oil this morning and drove around a bit today then came home and did a compression test. numbering the cylinders 1 - front(radiator) to 6 - back(firewall) i got: 1 - 1190kPa 2 - 1190kPa 3 - 1190kPa 4 - 1190kPa 5 - 1050-1100kPa 6 - 1050-1100kPa as i said i had the head done about ...

my l28 is in need of a rebuild, and i am considering a v8 conversion instead. i'm in brissy, is there anywhere that will engineer the change to a 308 for me. What would i be looking at incl the motor 2 - 2.5k???

Thanks for the advice. I rang a few places this morning and they all quoted my about $2k over the phone for a full rebuild, even tho i've had the head done in the last 3 months. They all said the engine needs to come out which is a pretty big cost. Does this sound right? can anyone reccommend ...

Sup About 3000km's ago i had the head done (and new radiator, hoses, carby rebuild, points, distributer, condenser, coil). It ran great for a bit, and still runs fairly well but it is starting to use a lot of oil. It was smoking terribly, so i put the mechanics grade wynns engine fluch through it ...

Anyone suggest somewhere to get a front bush kit? Been looking on ebay, but can't find any. Have emailed a few sellers with similar product but havent got a reply. Im in brissy, but postage should be bugger all. Clunk is giving me the s#%ts...

I've only ad the car for about 5 weeks, and havent really driven it in the wet yet so i don't know if it gets worse in the wet. I'll try and get under it tonight and have a look at the bushes and the mounts. Really appreciate all the advice.

Any idea's about the reverse problem?

Cheers

Scotty

It's a 4 spd box. I'll get on to doing the bushes - thanks. Other thing is was just looking through these photos and in the linked photo, with the wheels turned it looks like one wheel is turned less than the other. Is this just me being completely stupid? I just went and had a look and it seems the ...

Sup sup I've got an 85 MK Patrol shorty and I've got 2 problems. First problem is there is a loud metal clunk. I hear it sometimes when cornering, and always when reversing out of the garage. As I'm reversing I turn the wheel all the way to the right and about 3/4 of the way i hear a big clunk. It's ...

Lower centre of gravity when you are going up steep incline/decline, helps stop you from rolling or flipping the car.
