Just bought some on MB recommendation, not on car yet, but Mark can give you the low down. You may need a different front stabiliser bar though - I did.
Thanks mate, looking into bits and pieces and Phil is just down the road from my work, I’ll wait till they get back in the new year!

Hi all,
On my L Plates
My dad has got a Y62, i enjoy driving it
Future plans are a TD42 GU Patrol coil cab, to compete against my mates rig JackoGQYoot
Just looking for a bit of help...
Either 4.6... or... 4.3 and transfer reduction as nippa suggested.
4.3 alone most likely won't make you happy
you could also / or instead of changing your diff ratio , change your reduction gear ratio . marks has 43% and 85% and there was someone offering a 63% ratio that some think is the ideal compromise...
hi PeeBee, the compressed length is 215mm when closed it sits just below horizontal following the quarter panel line. hope it helps. Here's a front on. 75952

Thats exactly what I do!
Stripped the GU diff this morning and dropped it off to the 4wd shed to get braced
for gearbox i'd go with a GL 4 grade over a GL 5, i think its 80-90.
transfer i think is 80-90 gl5
i'm using nulon as was the only gl4 i could get easily

New engine mounts good move, have a look at the current ones, check that they are bolted up securely and as previously stated, lever off the chassis and look for movement..Check other rubbers /bushes...
Its strange how this is more prevalent with the TD's. My ZD never had this, even with a SMF. Now with a TD, using all the ZD running gear still, I have this same rattle. But strangely enough, I like...
Just get underneath with a pry bar and see what moves. You'll also be able to see if the engine mount is cracked just by looking at the rubber
Maybe an engine mount Jacko mate but worth giving the front left guard/body a quick yoink up and down to eliminate a body<>chassis mount maybe worn, worth a quick try?

It's called gear rollover. It's the gears themselves meshing under little to no load. Give it some load or rpm and it goes away.
Just make sure they need replacing could just be doing it for the sake of it and noise is still there. Sounds like it could be the standard diesel chatter down low which is common in diesels...
There are two mounts to replace, it's tricky but can be done in the driveway. I have the superior mounts and don't like them, they vibrate a lot at low revs and make it impossible to hold a...
Hey mate just be aware the superior ones transmit A LOT of vibration through to the car Winnie has some in his GQ. From experience the factory ones seem to be fine.
