    Disregard. Thats a good photo. I don't see any indication of movement from those mounts. The cross pin that is out of sight would leave some streaks down the side if it were not secure.

    Do not lift the tire off the ground at all ! Just throw an old towel over the tire its easy to see the top of the strut with a mirror and light. The easy fix for trouble shooting purposes is just add another 1/8" shock washer with the same diameter hole on top of the the stack. This will...

    Use an inspection mirror and a light to look at the top of the washer/bushing stack of the front strut. You are looking for dust, dirt and road gunk evenly applied by natural causes. You should not see any displaced dirt on the painted surface, shiny metal or black carbon like dust around the...

    The bushing material and stack of washers for the top mount of the ARB/BP51 and ARB/OME Nitros front and rear is the common denominator for the clunk/metalic clink as the shaft and pilot washer would slide back into the hole in the frame. Thats were the timing was off from going over the speed...

    I found some speed bumps in the hospital parking lot less than a mile away so went over them at different "parking lot" approved speeds many times and different out side temps to find the fault "clunk" with the ARB shock mount bushings. I then had my son stand off to the side of the speed bump...

    May 406 TRAIL RIDE – Saturday May 4th St. Anthony Sand Dunes

    -No expert here but "low range" is a must to keep the engine in its power band that you will learn very quickly in your vehicle. Use "high range" for that high speed big hill climb but that's up to you. -3/4 of a tank or just above is were I will run the 200LC. Just trying to keep fuel out of...

    Maintenance you wished you would’ve done?

    What in line filter did you use? Would you install that same filter again or have you found a better option now with your experience with the system?

    Gambler 2024- this time I bought a Toyota.

    Have a new key made from best key you have. All vehicles around 1986 had a Hide-a-Key on the frame that was not used very often and a tube of Blistex. I think it was required back then. It is common for the key to wear out before the ignition sw pins and a new cut key was cheaper to try first.

    Carb icing? Happens most often above freezing temps 35-60f. Humidity turns to ice inside the carb at the Venturi. Make sure the vacuum line is connected (and in good condition) to the carb heat valve on top and at the end of the air filter housing/inlet and the tube going down to the exhaust...

    (Another) Front suspension noise/steering rack question

    I would ck with Slee for replacement parts (I'm sure they have lots) and their experience with the bushings. When the faulty bushings are installed, they look and feel just like any other we have installed for many years but after getting compressed and rebound the bushings act more like old...

    Does hood deflector increase wind noise?

    I found the bug bouncer that I had on my white '87 4x min truck up in the attic covered up by gun boxes:hmm:. It is about 8 inches tall and smoked flat plexiglass. Grass hoppers and other insects that size were not redirected at 55-60 mph and I am sure it made a lot of noise. I would send it to...

    Does hood deflector increase wind noise?

    I installed the OEM hood deflector many years ago and it has done its job well to protect the leading edge of the hood from rock dents and chips. The only place on this one that touches paint is under the hood and no paint loss. I have not noticed any wind noise over the ringing in my ears that...

    (Another) Front suspension noise/steering rack question

    With that last description I don't think your rig has the dreaded "clunk". Turning like you have described was not an indicator for the "clunk". It would most often make the clunk when going over some thing like a a speed bump in a parking lot or off road, or a sharp 2 inch rise pulling in to...

    (Another) Front suspension noise/steering rack question

    Sounds like "The dreaded clunk", staring the top rubber mounting bushings supplied with BP51 and Nitrocharger shocks by ARB. The rubber material will loose or never had the right amount of elasticity causing slop in the top mount even if installed properly. The "clunk" has been covered...

    Cold Weather - Any Issues?

    I have not added any type of block, oil pan or battery heater mainly because there are not many places to plug in when at work, trail heads and parking in a field while duck hunting on the Big Horn River at -32F and not a current bush in sight. Keep track of the age and condition of your...
