cheers for that..... I'm assuming the wedge is to help out with the Drive shaft angles and put the angle back to normal specs.... I don't have a BL in mine and the height was 760mm b4 installing the shackles and 792mm on the RHS and 805mm on the LHS after installing the shackles. As I said...

Guys..... I've just installed some extended rear shackles in my D22 which lifted the rear end by around 40mm (800mm from bottom of rim to guard). I've spoken to some who have installed the extended shackles & then started to noticed a small vibration in the driveline at low speeds. I can't be...

Yeah, I reckon they take more than the quoted 125ltrs..... U done well to be able to get it down to that level considering the large surface area too....

I used one of these + a small Whale in-line 12v pump when height was a issue.... the only downside is its only good for diesel, not petrol.... We used this system to drain a 44g drum out on the CSR many years ago.

Was there some rain there over teh weekend?? campgrounds look a bit wet?

are those Maxxis a Light Truck (LT) tyre? They look pretty good too.... why not go with the 265/75/16's ??

Sounds great.... I'm not a huge fan of crowds.... What sort of ball part cost was it for u and how many in your family..... there's 5 of us.... rob

fantastic pics.... would definitely love to do a road trip through Canada and the western parts of the US + Alaska..... but not until the kids are off our hands.....

So, what's the story with these 3ltr ones.... I've heard various people say they a time bomb, but when u look at the number on the road, they can't all bad..... What is the problem and what are the fixes ???

In what way..... A good ride or a Harsh Ride ??? I'm looking at doing something similar soon but I do have a Steel Bar + Winch.....

There should be 2 fuses.... one for charging the battery (80A Fusable Link) and the other one for the charging/warning light, etc on the Dash. this one is 10A. Not sure if this will help u.....see attached pic

Metal Clunking noise in front Suspension - Shocks? So, do the shocks rubbing make any sort of noise then ??

These pics are of the upper control arm bushes. I've noticed with the front & rear bushes there seems to be quite a gap when the travel is at its max. When car is sitting normally the gap is even. I assume there's a metal sleeve inside the bush that prevents the bush from moving around. Pics...

Well, I'm still trying to locate this metal clunking sound, so I thought I'd jack up the front RHS suspension to see if I could see anything (BTW: these TB IFS front ends don't give much travel - 55mm drop). I took the following pics which I'm after some info as to whether this is common or...

With those figures, I'd be swapping your Aux Battery into the Main battery position and trying the test out again. If u get the same results, then at least u know it's not the battery itself.... providing your Aux battery is in GOOD condition. Don't suppose u have access to a spare Alternator...

Does it stay at that voltage even after the engine is up to operating temp? I know mine stays around 12.8v for a little while then kicks in and goes up to 14.4. I got a feeling this is battery related though.....(age) I know a lot of Alternators in cars today have a Temp component to them that...

Guys..... Did anyone watch this "Driven to Extremes" on Channel ONE ?? Hardcore 4wdriving through the Jungles of Malaysia.... The vehicle they were using is a 4.2ltr V6 Diesel Nissan GU patrol..... Pity Nissan didn't bring these into Australia.... Hopefully its a weekly show :rock:

Josh... So u didn't receive any scraps/marks on your flares / panels with the drop when it slipped down ??? Looks so close, would have thought u would have received some marks though..... How did the Prado go towing the Camper ??

Yeah, its not a CV in this situation as I was in 2WD and Hubs unlocked....

No......
