This may explain better than my babble not the best artist but give you an idea

So reducing articulation for someone who prefers to do more difficuilt 4wd it is definately worse as you will lift wheels off the ground more regularly therefor loosing traction, then to counteract...

Axle articulation also called flex in simple terminology is the travel of the axle from maximum stretch to minimum compression if that makes sense, how far each wheel can travel up and down. This is...

Me, I just "eyeball" the ride height but... Technically, the 'best' way is...

Let all the air out of the bags

With average load in the back measure the height front and rear of the vehicle...

Nah... shouldn't be the tyres esp if they have the same wear.

If tyre dia caused it then the hubs would lock evry time any vehicle went round a corner

Generally the red ones are Poly Airs, the blue ones Firestones from the Airbag Man etc.

Polyair used to state that the airbag had to be inflated before loading up the vehicle. I don't know if...

hi i have them on mine and yes ynot is correct
the coils do the main work so the airbags are used to level the load so the ass doesn drag on the ground
when i tow the boat its at 22 psi / if used...

The only thing I know about air assist springs is you should keep a minimum 5psi in them at all times to stop them getting pinched by the springs.

Did you use the correct Nissan Spec Diff Oil ?

If the Diff Oil is the wrong spec that will also cause uncommanded engagement of the Auto Hubs

after 4x4ing do you reverse up to release the hub?

I have owned LPG cars for many years including a taxi, all falcons. Also have a Courier 2.6 MPI on gas as well. If the engine is working hard go one heat range colder. Replace the plug leads at or...

the evil twin is correct. The spark plug gap needs to be reduced 0.1-0.2mm and needs to be one heat range colder. For Bosch plugs, the colder plug's part number is numerically lower, where NGK plugs...

spiral leads and platinum plugs (one range colder I think but not sure on that bit). certainly make a diff on teh TB42 EFI's so should be the go on the 45's as well I reckon

Stray current test Procedure:
Note: This check procedure is best carried out with plain water in the cooling system, since coolant may
give a false reading.
