Hi all, hope this helps someone and apologise if someone has already come up with this. All I could find to replace the cable was a massive headliner out procedure but it’s not necessary. If you simply take out the front stop, cut the track underneath it. You then can take out old cable and...

She is a pretty girl. Think you are right about spacers and offset, I will only ever be on the road so I like 16” rims. Think at some point I will have order some more suitable rims.

Your right could have ended in tears, I had driven her 150miles at 80mph, going to put 3 point rear seatbelts in now for sure. I guess the 16” Berg wheels are aftermarket but what about the spacers? I guess the wheel arches are oem so hard to think what would of filled them without spacers

So just a little update, I fitted new bearings but when I was doing it I noticed the wheel spacer nuts were loose. Anyway tighten them up and with the new bearings the clicking has gone. Think it must have been the spacer nuts as it didn’t click before I fitted new discs.

Yes calliper is on tight. All spins with no click until she is off the jack. Had it apart again and checked the bearings and they look fine. Put it all back together again and still clicking. I can only assume it is the bearings so I have ordered some more just to eliminate if nothing else..

Pretty sure just the one side. Under medium breaking it goes. Speeds up when driving faster.

Unfortunately both, even if I remove the dial it makes no difference in 2 or 4wd. Keep thinking it’s the bearings but started straight after new brake discs. 🤷‍♀️

I just stripped them down and put new brake discs on, new locking washer and new spring clip but the bearings looked ok, there isn’t any play, I tighten up but not mega tight. What’s weird is doesn’t do it on the jack only when there is load on the wheel

Morning, I am no mechanic so help from everyone is very much appreciated. I tightened the front wheel bearings up on my HJ61 and now there is a loud clicking noise. It is odd because it’s only when driving, when I jack her up and spin the wheels there is no click and no play. I guess I have done...

Sorry if anyone ran a thread on this. Can anyone point me in the right direction for seat fabric. I put the passenger seat through the washing machine and it came up great, but drivers side needs some fabric before I attempt that on it.

I have ordered manifold gaskets (not sure they are OEM) also ordered the manifold seal ring set which is OEM. I will take your advice and ask the shop if they will use copper rtv 👍

Was exhaust after all 🤦‍♂️

So the shop said it isn’t exhaust and they need another guy to look at it on Monday, they also think the actuator isn’t moving or moving enough.

I called the shop and they also said it might be an exhaust leak. Definitely coming from round the turbo somewhere. I am going to let it get hot tomorrow if it’s not gone I going to run her back to them to check over I think
