Ok thank you mate, much appreciated. I will drop by with the idea tomorrow. One other thing, the manual says I can have 46m of 11mm wire, goodwinch (via superwinch) says they can supply me with it for £168 + vat + £35 carriage! Can you suggest another supplier that does not require the sale of...

Fair point, sounds good. Cut in half, insert both half into a tube, pin/weld each side? Bobs your uncle, michael jacksons your child minder:D The shaft is 19mm diameter, what diameter/thickness would you suggest for the outer sleeve?

Rapid reply Redhand, much impressed;) I have been to an engineers the other day who had bored and keyed a pair of yokes for me, he said to make a like for like shaft would be in the hundreds. He suggested lengthening it but couldn't say whether or not the joint would be strong enough.

Hi All, Does anyone hove any pto shafts knocking about for the Superwinch H14, particually the front one that connects to the winch? I have the fairy pto and shafts which I assumed would fit the Superwinch H14 which apart from the coupling shaft (which is around 3" too short) fits fine. I...

I have just had a look at the winch manual for yours and its pretty much the same as mine. I have just picked up two new solid yokes (£25.76+vat ea) from a company called GKN Driveline Services Ltd in Leek, Staffordshire. Really helpful people too. I spoke to them about your sliding joint (took...

Cheers for that Ratty. I have found a local company who can supply a solid yoke of the correct size for under £30. A engineering firm has quoted me £25 to bore it out and fit a keyway. With regards to your hexagon shaft and yoke Ratty, have you thought about getting a normal round yoke with a...

Quality Farm Supply - 14 SERIES IMPL YOKE

Might help if I post the link... GG Mfg Site > Products > Universal Joints / Yokes > Complete U-Joints

I know its an American site but it may be of some use. Particually for you Ratty, they do a hexagon yoke as you wanted. Might be of use, might not. Best I've found so far. Hens teeth and the like...

Or a motorfactors perhaps?

Will do. Was that part number for the yokes too because that's the bit I'm after? I can get most if not all the parts from Superwinch, the downside on that is I would need to sell the landy to fund it. The part numbers from Superwinch must be for their reference only.

What a legend Ratty, top man.

My arse fell through with the quote I was given. I'm going to the local motor factors tomorrow, they said they will try and measure up one to match mine. Would a steering uj be strong enough for a winch? I was a bit unsure weather it would stand up to the stresses of a winch.

Hi All, Does anyone know of any current part numbers for the universal joints for the above winches. One of my uj's are bolloxed (yokes worn) and in need of replacing but I cannot find any relevant part numbers. Apart from the ones in the manual. I spoke to the Superwinch technical support...

Result, let us know how you get on!

Your engine is the same year as mine, I have a fair amount of breathing, I'm not too bothered though, it doesn't spit oil nor does it use any either, its common or expected on this type and age of engine anyway. As far as I'm aware a spluttering engine at high revs isn't due to bore wear, that...

And the verdict is a worn engine, pistons/bore etc. Rebuild or swap.

You will get a oily mist coming from the rocker cover. Another thing to try is to pull out the dipstick (once the engine is up to temp) then put your finger over the dipstick tube and hold it there for a few seconds, when you remove it (if its pressurised) it will spit oil at you.

Ditto

There might be a totally different reason but my 90 had a similar problem, took ages to start, once it fired it blew out plumes of white smoke and ran like a bag of nails. After the timing belt snapped and I fitted a new one and set the timing correctly, I realised the belt was a tooth out or...
