RUNAMUCK Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 moryes in a diff or gearbox dilutes the ep additives and it will blow up or shorten it's life. Interdasting. I once read a post by a very very clever man who said that diff oil needs to have stronger voodoo/black magic to account for the shearing action between the angles on the teeth on the crownwheel and pinion. Heavy duty oil stabilizers state on the bottle to just chuck it in bro. But they're only petroleum based. So probably quite weak in the sourcery dept. but with old shit like this, where the gears were carved out of stone, the manufacturers recommendation might be legit. wheres Shandawg when you need an oil expert?

HighLUX Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Nah thats separate but the coolant heads thru the T/B on its way to the ISCV, have to shift the T/B so tidying up unnecessary shit along with it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNAMUCK Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 It's probably the die cast wildcat boss kit. The affix the cast part with the splines to the stamped steel steering wheel bit with pop rivets too..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Get it done Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 What are tow bars made from? i thought it was mild steel but it was hard work cutting it and drilling it, can only go 2 mm deep before it turns hard like tool steel. Chipped a piece off, it appears soft on the outside but the core is all crystallized. Wouldn't have thought it would work harden but maybe it has?I have seen a few towbars made out of off cuts of hardox or bisloue before , that shits next to impossible to drill, hit the edge of it with a grinder and look at the colour and size of the sparks that will give you a good indication as to its hardness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldrx Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Alternate method to set torque on steering box worm shaft? Torque driver is over $400 USD. Factory manual specifies 1.0 - 4.0 cm-kg (0.9 to 3.5 in-lb). Would take it to a shop if it was a quick job but adjustment is via shims so a lot of mucking around/hrs/$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nominal Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Put appropriate weight on a ratchet. Remember to account for the weight of the handle itself it you want max accuracy. Or use a light scale and pull horizontal. http://www.instructables.com/id/Bicycle-torque-wrench-from-a-fishermans-scale/?ALLSTEPS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldrx Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Nice will read up properly when i get a minute "The infrequent user does not particularly want to pay out twenty to forty dollars for a tool that seldom gets used" I'd kill for that kinda pay back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yowzer Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 I've spent 10 times that on tools I seldom use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
