sorry to hijack thread JF
they are good in the front but make steering heavy in tight turns
and take a bit of getting used to. man look at the numbers
he picked up 2 for less than one arb....but dont know if i'd try front without power steering.

Now, Jonathan has your gear starting turning up yet boy are you in for a phat summer :idea:

I've now driven on the Freeway and out Bush, with the Interco LTB's, the're no worries. I've now also driven with the front Lock Right, the Steering is extremely heavy in Low Range first, but once accelerating in Low Range second and third, the Steering's fine. Also, with the Free Wheeling Hubs engaged, the Lock Right has no effect whilst in Rear Wheel Drive.

Almost forgot, the Interco LTB-01 on 3.5" Back Space 15x8, rub, and have bent out, the Plastic Lining on the Firewall.

No, Dad and I will get a Trailer and go to Bendigo this Friday. I'll firstly check the Injector Pump Wires with a Multi Meter, and see if I can get it to fire, otherwise it'll go on a Trailer and be taken to the Engine Builder.

The problem with the Injector Pump, was that the wire between its clip and the Injector Pump was damaged, which the Engine Mob fixed.
When I picked the Car up from the Engine Mob, he said the Injectors were leaking, enough to make a Puddle on the Ground. The Mob I got to recondition the Injectors, supplied the wrong Washers. Which I've since rectified with them.

Fortunately I measured the Monroes, they're the wrong ones.
In the Emails to Monroe, it was written as if L16-1702+ is the same with and without the L & +. Which is not correct, according to Repco, the ones I wanted must have the L infront of the Part Number. Which would cost twice as much as the normal ones.
Originally when I went in to get the Monroes, I wrote on the piece of Paper, L16-1702+ or 16-1702. :cussing:

Next to get is Carrolls GP-2637H, instead. :tool:
