  1. Thanks for the input guys. I'll figure it out. And thank you for the manual will definitely assist.
  2. Cheers guys. Yeah the bearings are all the way seated, looking at the instructions I have, I assumed that the standard shims would do the job. Would probably go in with the standard shims if I took the washers out under the bearings. But seems they are there for a reason.
  3. Hi guys, would be interested to know if anyone has set up a TRD F series IRS diff. Specifically the side bearing preload. I have an MX73 open diff head. It had two washers setting the bearing preload. The Trd instructions specify to use new side carrier bearings, with some small shims under them which according to part number crossovers, I have the correct ones installed Once I drop the head in, I can not get the second washer in the gap to set preload, it's too tight. Now i can easily grind down the tight shim to get it fitting, but is this normal to do? Any help much appericiated. I have included a pic of the TRD instruction
  4. Legend @Barnz.NZ, this will definitely assist me!
  5. Cheers guys, I actually have a subframe that's been modified with bmw camber bolts, however this doesn't fit into my car. I might see what I can do with the mounts off that one. Nice work on that one @Barnz.NZ. Might have to try this as even if I can't wind as much camber out as I want, i'll be able to cert it lower than doing nothing I suppose. In the pic (looking at the bottom mount), did you just cut if off flush and keep the lower part in there? where its welded to the end tube and attach the new part to that?
  6. Hi all, I have returned from a long break under a new username ( due to forgetting my prior details :/) I still have my Carina GTR coupe that made an appearance at 2010 old school nationals, and due to no parts, too many projects in between and hectic work schedule, has been an extremely slow project ever since. I'm almost at the cert stage with it but need some info from anyone who has done the F-Series camber mod, I did a search and found @dspec_tt131 has done it kinda recently, but didn't give a whole lot of info on it. So please chime in if you see this mate. Bascially just want to know from those that have been through this, if you used a kit or made it up yourself, any issues you had and if it was worth doing, and better still, if you can do mine for me!!$$ This is pretty much my last hurdle to avoid cert issues with this thing so any help is much appreciated, really want to get the old girl back on the road! Cheers in advance guys and girls. Kane
