  1. Hi all, I just installed a 40mm lift (tough dog - its an aussie brand) that was 4 shocks and two rear coils. I considered re-indexing the torsion bars but decided to just crank them because it wasn't a huge lift (about 1.4 inches) and it seems to be happy there. I was just wondering about a few things, like the effect on the upper and lower ball joints and if the front on the vehicle normally sits a bit lower than the rear? Also the amount of distance i should have between the bumpstops in the front?

    Sorry about asking all the questions, I just want to make sure i have all the right info

    Cheers, Jack :)

  2. Hi guys, I've noticed that I have a small amout of oil weaping out of the back of the alternator. I've figured that is the vacuum pump on the rear of the alternator I assume the oil is there for lubrication. Ive read that theres a pair of o-rings in there and is it possible they've gone or could the banjo bolts be leaking? I'm heading off on a 3000km road trip in a couple of weeks so I just wanna be sure everythings ready to go. Also any road trip preps you'd reccomend? Cheers guys

  3. If it's gone down one of those vents you'll have to take your centre vents out. Undo the four screws holding the centre console on. Underneath that there are three screws holding the centre air vents. Remove by pulling straight back then you'll have room to get your hand in there to hopefully get it with a magnet. Some Phillips head screwdriver tips are magnetic.

     

    Cheers mate, :aok: I'll give it a go next weekend when I get the time and while its off I may as well install a boost gauge (td27 engine) Ill post photos when I do it

  4. I've been looking for a ARB style bull bar for my 91 model wd21, and I just cannot seem to find any for sale. Are there any other cars with similar mounting points that could fit on mine? Thanks heaps, I am desperate as I do a lot of country/bush driving and I'm worried I'll hit a roo
