Hmmmmm, I believe the correct term for your car now is...........neutered:eek: It should run fine, I know lots of people around like that:rolleyes:
-
That one went right over my head:-\
-
All you did was replace the HG's? Shouldnt be any balls involved unless a mouse got in there:rolleyes: I believe theres one in the oil pump, but other than that not to my knowledge.

Looks like he might work at the SuperMall Dave. Next you/me are there at that time of night, we should put a note on his window. What part of the Mall was it in? -

I'm not even sure if anyone has even seen this at any local Rallys/RallyX's or AutoX's. It could be all show and no go:rolleyes: -
Thunking noise in low speed turns
Turbone replied to patkennedy78's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Sounds like the CV joint is going out. Check the boot, its probably torn and lost all the grease. You could probably still drive it for a while, but its not going to get better. Replacement is easy, theres a couple of online places to buy axles(which I cant recall at the moment) -
WCSS9 or bust! I shouldnt say that....I've broke down on the way to the last 2 shows:banghead: I need to swap out a front axle and its good to go this time. And I will be bringing extra axles and maybe a rear diff too.

You wont get any pics of it uninstalled. I'm not taking it apart again, if I can help it:-\

This guy used to live in BL and moved a couple months ago. Dont think he was ever on the board, never had a chance to stop and talk to him. Glad to see its still around. I'm pretty sure its a RX. -
I'll try and take some pics and maybe even diagrams(big maybe on that), but have to wait for a little better weather next week. I got fairly intimate(?) with my setup after having to remove most of it to replace the tranny and front/rear diffs. Theres lots of variables involved with any setup you go with and will take personal ingenuity in some areas of fabrication. Mounting bracket from the original t-case will be needed and the brackets for the front diff(from the rear)are needed also. A sub frame is needed to attach the mounts and the strut rod caps to. Before going into more detail and making others just question more, I will wait until I get some pics so you will know what I'm talking about.

T-case lift FAQ (transfer case questions / answers)
Turbone replied to bushbasher's topic in Off Road
A small update on the afore mentioned "1WD" comment. I have a welded rear diff in mine and have driven on tarmac with one axle out. Lets just say......its a tad squirrely? Almost unsafe. With RWD and one axle, everytime you shift and give it gas, the car lurches to the drive side. If your really hard on the gas, its a significant lurch. Ask Qman, he drove my Hatch once like that and promptly installed the other axle. I say drive with both axles in, whether its welded or not. -
85-GL ES82 Wagon Dropped Valve?
Turbone replied to onetoothoff's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
If you were able to turn it over with the starter, I dont think it dropped a valve. You might want to check all the bolts holding the cam in. Sounds like something keeps coming loose. Also sounds like you might still have a timing issue. -
Tranny is still in it. The side and rear skirts are gone tho. I'm not sure, but the wing may be gone also.
-
I couldnt make it there all this week and I have a bunch of stuff to do tomorrow. The earliest I can back there is Monday.

Finished my winch bumper!!
Turbone replied to crockettbrat's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Those were from Jibs photo gallery. When you scroll thru like that, it changes users. -
Nicely done. Looks alot like our PNW puddles:headbang:
-
I didnt open up my EA82 4wd 5spd after I grenaded it, but I bet I had a bunch of those little guys running around in the case:rolleyes:

Anyone see the Brat in the magazine?
Turbone replied to SakoTGrimes's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Petersons Off Road mag in the Cheap to wheel section. It was in last months(?) issue and was already posted here:-p -
And the car is probably 500lbs lighter! Did you add any more bolts to hold the bumper on? And is that the stock bumper?
-
You dont know him very well, do you? Look at his pics in the gallery, you will see what he does to that poor car:-p
