Hodge's new 4.2

[jay see]

Yeah i think i might have to get some thin spacers for the bottom. Im sure half my noise issues is from the springs.

Pretty sure that my factory ones were in poor condition when I changed over my suspension (didn't have new ones to throw in). What's the noise your getting Mark? I've got a squeak as the body rolls around corners. Will like to do top and bottom.

Happy to report colder morning gear changes and the gear chatter much better after the oil change .
As Mat said, who knows whether this oil was ever replaced.
Todays job, to rip the auto hub mechanism out. So I can use same oils in transfer and front diff.
Front diff and Transfer case oils as well as breathers for the gearbox and x-fer.

This shop is where I brought my 15mm bottom spacer from , as I couldn't find any
10mm numbers they even sell the rubber ones for the top, You'll all be familiar with
the shop.

I may have 2 x 15mm for sale, is there any difference between the front and rear coils??

Around $6us plus postage....

Really!! I think I was quoted something like $30 each or something. I wanted 4 and got some rubber for under $10 to make a set.

Those ARB ones look the goods and TDs links above are good too. Rubber worked fine though.

Yeah patrolapart list them for 30ea

[threedogs]

The ones I have are 170mm od and 115 id and going by
my link above that would mean I have 2 sets of front 15mm spacers,
Looks like I need some rear 15mm and some rubber for the top all around

@ BA I have 2 x 15mm poly urethene ones here 170mm od and 115mm ID

I'm thinking to do this properly is to use these poly urethene plates on the
base and some rubber ones on the top?.

EDIT do they just sit there or do you cable tie them to the coil???

She's acting funny since yesterday when turning her off. Usually it's 1 second or so and shes off. Now when I turn the key she slowly comes to a stop over 3-4 seconds with some coughing and splattering. What gives??

Off to JPC tomorrow for cooling system to get gutted and high flow pump fitted.

I've seen this on faceache before. I believe they said it was a very common issue and that its the fuel stop solenoid on your pump.
Apparently nothing to worry about
