I should update something,
well some time later.....
12 months later and this lappo is driving pretty well, other than a horendus driveline vibration, I'm thinking it's the box and i really should have a look...
I swapped out the early block A12 that had a mild unknown regrind stick in it,
I slipped in a bog stock Big block A15 outa a sunny wagon, I did put on a GX1200 induction though,
it pulls like a 16 yr old with a stick book, but also drives nicely for a daily.
I pulled out the 4.4 gears and slipped in a 3.9 steel centre, I put in another tailshaft with new uni joints too,
I was questing today on making the wipers work again, killed one motor, and the next one wasn't happy but was working before I slipped it in,
turns out the shafts that come thru the firewall were pretty much seized up, then the nuts wouldnt come off without trearing them out of the firewall first... too much drama for one little job, so doused the lot in CRC fron underneath, not muh joy,
what to do..
they have a little rubber seal just under the splines, I tried to leaver that up to get some lube in there, they were hard as a honeymooners.....
but a little bit cracked off, bingo, dripped some balistoil on them, work them back and forth and you should see my wipers go now...
rotate the seals round so the cracked bit is at the bottom... all good and now easy to oil in the future...
next chore.....
