Off road tyres, steel wheels , bigger tyres
Hi Guys
Its been a while since I gave any one any headaches on the list by asking
questions so I think I have a few. But first to let you all know the
leaking CV inner seal is fixed and I did it all on my own, of course I did
NOT. Our new member Mik in Mayo was so kind to do it and I helped by
watching cleaning and learning. He made it look so easy and once you see it
being done it changes the whole idea of not being able to even think about
doing it. Do any of you guys know of a good 4x4 guy in wales or close for
steel rims and tyres, I am thinking of getting the cruiser ready for off
road because there seems to be some activity every now and again over here.
If I go to a larger tyre say a 31 10 15 will it change the ratio of the gear
changes in the auto box at all. I am also thinking of a set of new springs
like OME which should give a 2inch lift and stableise the ride more, but if
I do that is there any thing that has to be made longer underneath the body
like wires or pipes etc. While I was out this morning bugging the poor guy
in the motor factors he showed me a pump for changing the oil from the dip
stick. I know you probably know about this already but it was new to me to
think that you could change the oil from the dip stick. When changing the
fluid in the auto box where do you fill from ,is it the dip stick. How do
you change all the fluid , is it drain then fill then drain again and so on.
Up to this it has always gone into Toyota but I feel some confidence coming
from some where, it must be those tablets I had this morning.
Thanks Guys
