Body lift is basically just rubber blocks that go between the chassis and the body, there are factory blocks in there so hold the body on, and all your doing is replacing them with larger ones.

First thing they asked is if i have a catch can installed, which i do, Provent 200 which i believe is ment to be a good one, got installed before the new turbo and gets regularly emptied. Gets serviced every 5000km, cant stress enough how well this ute gets looked after but cant seem to catch a...

Hey guys, Installed a new Forefront Industries turbo less then 10,000km ago and while rotating tyres today i discovered its leaking oil from around the turbo.. any ideas? Looks clean from the top only see it from wheel arch angle.. will email forefront and see what they think as well. Link to...

No idea sorry mate i got it used. I also run 33" tires which would be effecting it. Funnily enough tho the speedo is 100% correct

probably not of any interest as its a D40 but my ODO is 23% off

I have a 800L fuel tank that i fill out of, i put 1 litre of Liqui Moly Diesel Clean & Boost in each (800L) tank full. 1 litre is ment to treat up to 1000L but doing it this way is easy and its still within there recommended dose. As far as what it actually does.. not 100% sure. Just peace of...

Has anybody dealt with DEA Performance? Im looking at ordering one of there 3" turbo back exhaust with cat/muffler. For $620 its a really good price. I thought i read something in a forum a little while back and people were saying they were having trouble fitting them, hitting the firewall...

Hey guys, Anybody from Southern Africa on here? Just returned from an amazing trip over there and i saw something (lots of them) that id like to build for my ute here in Australia. It seemed that every second well-body ute had a roll cage looking frame around there tray. Not sure what theyre...

Update: SOLVED (?) Thought the problem might have fixed itself over the last few weeks and about a 1000km including some towing. Got to work today and i thought my engine was about to blow up from the noise it was making. Suspected noise was coming from alternator, loosened belt off, spun it...

Yeah i read it while at work but can see now its not going to test what i need it to.. i think im just going to have to drive it until something goes bang..

I think the belts and tensioners are alright.. i think i need to possibly start looking at fan/ac clutches and maybe wayer pump, although the noise (which is now almost constant after driving 50km) doesnt seem to be related to the ac clutch engaging. Have found this test to possibly check the...

Got the but off alright, replaced both pulleys and belts.. noise still there.. went for a test drive and the only time i can hear it is when the engines really labouring, like if i go from 2nd gear to 4th and the rpm drop etc and the engine chugs along, i can hear a squeaking noise. When...

Quick question hopefully someone can help me out.. the idler pulley on the AC belt.. the bolt that goes through the pulley is extremely tight, its not left hand thread or something is it? Got it soaking in wd40 now but its still tight. Need to loosen it so i can try changing the belts to try...

Once again my Nav has a problem.. starting to think i bought a lemon.. Im getting a noise on/off from my belts/alternator area. I thought it might be the bearings in the idler pulley (alternator belt), took it off and sure enough there was a fair bit of play in one of the bearings. Pressed the...

Digging up an old thread here... but can anyone tell me where i find the wires i need to splice into to install my turbo timer? I have a cheap rip off Apexi one from ebay but figured it would do the job. I just cant work out how to actually hook it up. Not worried about having to wait for...

My understanding of how it works is that oil catch cans catch the oil thats in the "blow by" off the top of the crank house. Where as the gas thats circulating through the EGR is exhaust gas and doesnt go anywhere near your catch can. So yes youll want to block off EGR valve.

Cheers for your advice Tony, appresiate it. I havent had to add any more water since and iv done around 300km with the new turbo on so i think its alright. Cheers!

Mine collects a fair bit of oil and im pretty happy with it. Provent 200, i brought the kit from Western Filters so was a breeze to fit.

Cheers Tony, i always let it cool down before shutting down engine and iv got a turbo timer that im going to install now the new turbos in. My coolant temp sits around 95-103ish depending on how im driving it does this sound about right? I think the turbos probably alright its only because i...

Just wrote a big update but it failed to post.. In short.. installed new turbo, seems to be making a hissing/gurgling noise, very quietly, after i turn off engine, this normal? Stops if you release the radiator
