So you took the tie rod from the GQ with the diff yeah? All good.
Yes the drag link will bolt up no probs But, the Taper angle of the GQ tie rod end on the drag link at the Steering box end is a different degree taper and will not "taper lock" which is not ideal. You can replace the tie rod end on that end with a GU one and your done. If you still have the Tie rod from the GU diffs then rip an end off it and fit it to your drag link.
Hi mike_1
This is the process I'm thinking about doing rather than fixing the dreaded IP failure.
Couple of questions
1. Who did you contact at the RTA?
2. Did you need an engineer inspection when you changed the engine mounts
Any help would be great
Cheers
Hi guys,
Sorry for being slack with getting everyone updated on the project progress, but I've been extremely busy at work. Recent upgrades: set of four 35x12.5x15 Maxxis Creepy Crawler tyres on a 15x8 sunnysAttachment 46646
ckjonno: I've called RTA number and I was transferred through to the techincal support. I did it twice and spoke to two different RTA representatives. No one mentioned anything about getting eng cert for the engine mounts, looks like they don't care as long as the engine was an option for this model.
Since both of the diffs came out of the GQ and it has a factory rear locker (vacuum one) we are having a bit of a dramma making it working in GU. I bough GU difflock switch and GU difflock ECU module, but whenever i'm trying to engage the it, difflock lamp keeps on flashing on the dash and it doesn't actually engage the difflock. Both solenoids were tested OK, vacuum is OK, difflock is OK. Tried different ECU's and different switches - issue remains. When I tested the solenoids connection, I'm getting 12-14V (can't remember exactly how much) on one of the outputs, but when I engage it, there is no voltage coming out of both solenoids electrical wiring. Any suggestions?
Rip it all out an put an air locker in and be done with it....Quote:
