    Wits End Order Issues / Joey Romero

    I fell into this trap with no knowledge of this thread and Wits End history. I hope this website is shut down asap.

    Wits End Order Issues / Joey Romero

    Hey, So the bush pressing kit has been available on his website for a period of over 2 years and he has not had stock to sell? Has he by chance had another machinist in that 2 years? This may be a difficult question to answer, but when was the last time somebody received a bush pressing kit...

    Wits End Order Issues / Joey Romero

    Hey Jason, Could you clarify the date that payments for your bush pressing kits stopped? As I purchased the kit on 12th September 2023 with no knowledge of Wits End history, it will be helpful for me to negotiate with my credit card company if I can show them the link to this thread and prove...

    Wits End Order Issues / Joey Romero

    Hey all, I'm in Norway and ordered a bush pressing kit and axle seal driver 12th September, does his bankruptcy filing now mean I've got no chance of disputing the $380 on my credit card? Best Mark

    Which way around does the handbrake dogbone go?

    Hey, The videos from this channel are fantastic! I really like his knuckle rebuild video. If you go to 22min10sec into the video, you'll see he put the new dogbone in with the poky bit pointing in, several people made comments about it in the comments section that it was flipped over compared...

    Which way around does the handbrake dogbone go?

    Hey Phil, I think you've got yours in the correct way, and I need to turn mine around. I'm not sure it makes any difference, but I'm going to change mine. My handbrake is currently working, not brilliantly on a super steep incline, but it is holding on a moderate slope. I need to wind my...

    Which way around does the handbrake dogbone go?

    Hey, I found a more informative image from the japanparts website, which shows the poky bit pointing out and the shorter leg sitting inside. The image of the dogbone in my FSM is completely symmetric compared to the one below.... Best Mark

    Which way around does the handbrake dogbone go?

    Hey, Thanks for the piks! So both sides on yours show the poky bit pointing out. Any chance you know if your setup is the original gear?? Best Mark

    Which way around does the handbrake dogbone go?

    Hey all, I've just rebuilt my handbrake assembly with a Terrain Tamer kit, and had a quick question regarding the handbrake dogbone. In many videos and images I've seen the dogbone as shown below.... The poky bit on one side points out, as shown in the red circle. On my 450, the old gear...

    Sourcing a used airbag ECU in the USA

    Hey, Thanks for that info, I wasn't aware it had become more strict! Must be a bit of a crackdown on postal packages for some reason? The EU has new rules every day! Norway isn't officially a part of the EU, but it follows most of their guidelines I think, as they trade with the entire EU...

    Sourcing a used airbag ECU in the USA

    Hey, I wasn't aware of any classification numbers to import into Norway, but perhaps that is something customs look at on a companies standard invoice? It should be as simple as writing, Used Car Part $value, on the declaration form. Might be better to be non specific and not mention the word...
