    prop shaft movement

    Hey everyone. I have this problem with my front drive shaft. The U joints are fine and recently replaces, however i have quite the bit of slack on my spline. Moves around quite a bit in circles, or back and forth. Are these drive shafts serviceable? Any recommendations? Cheers, Steve

    sliding joint play

    Hey guys, I'm wondering how much play is too much in the sliding joint of a prop shaft. If none, or minimal, is this service-able, or should i be looking for a new prop shaft? Would greasing her up be a good fix?? Cheers

    windscreen heater

    thanks for the response. I do have a question about de-fog or de-mist though. I have a button next to my fog light switch, that looks like it's for defogging. how does this work, when the button isn't anywhere near the heater controls. Cheers

    defender security

    shat....i never thought about it being towed away...steering wheel quick release maybe what about like a motor bike lock that goes through the disk...just add a vented disk to one wheel, enough so that a lock can fit through.

    defender security

    hey everyone, i though i would give this a try on my landy, and to my surprise, i think it could be beneficial, and give me an extra minute of time to get the club and catch the block mid-thieving. I´ve installed a battery isolater switch, which needs it´s own type of key to turn on. This switch...

    been working on it for a couple of hours now, and here is the latest. it will start, run perfect...i then accelerate, and it winds up to a higher rev, then quickly chokes itself off to the point of stalling. If i leave it at idle, it will just run really really rough for a minute, and the...

    aftermarket gauges
