    I am back here for some education and juicing up my knowledge about my P38. :rolleyes: It is dripping a few drops from the trans drain plug. I find it odd, as it didn't drip for 2 days after i re'newed my trans oil and filter + changed the sump gasket. Neither after my test runs However, it...

    But then again, if i really wanted a heavy duty AT tire, i'd go steel rim or some other rim to make it look solid and badass. But theese are mondials, so i dont wanna like make the tire stand to much out if you know what im saying. Since the mondials are so cooool, atleast on a black p38!

    Here in Norway we usually use 2 sets aswell. maybe up north they only use winter tires dunno, never been there :D I don't need the snow marking on my summer tires, nay. It sure is an advantage (as you wont need to rush to swap to winter tires), but i've heard AT tires in general ain't...

    Im unsure in what i should go for, the cooper discoverer has better fuel economy apparently, grabbers has the "advantage" with snow marking of their grabber AT3's.. 4 grabbers will be 200pounds more expensiver than discoverer. Also, the rims are 18 Mondial. Hows the noise level on the...

    P38 2.5DSE 97 earth

    is LRT-60-004 just for Radius bushes? How does the ones for the panhard bushes look like? I don't know what you mean with compressing the leading edge @Datatek, it sounds like you want me to squeeze it to make it fit? i kinda want the best tool for the job, but not the most expensive tool...

    P38 2.5DSE 97 earth

    what tool is advised for panhard bushes? /bushes in general? C clamp? Or is that not good enough? I am thinkering about investing in a 10 or a 12tonne press. But i've heard that 10 and 12 tonns might be, to little?

    well, bugger. i dont have the 24mm 12edge socket, so i cant get the bolts off. New ones were normal edges tho. Would this indicate my bushings are stock from factory perhaps? ill have a look tru my reciepts, if they go so far back from previous owners.. It sure does look real old tho. I...

    already paid 30 pounds for the oem bushes tho :D Is it not achievable in a vice with a small and a bigger recieve socket? Also, do you grease up the eye before mounting new ones?

    might do that Aswell. Its like changing the ujoints. You get a new axle with 2 new joints for 50-60£ more. I paid 40£ for just one silly uj. It was in Norway tho. It was needed quick. i dont think my rim is bent tbh. It suddently became a problem, and i guess i’d feel it if the rim gets a...

    ok, just read the procedure on Rave. Looks fair. I guess its just to jack it up and get some axle stands under the axle. Then just brute force all thoose bolts off, probably gonna soak them with magic juice first before attempting. Im probably just gonna order new bolts and nuts for it as its...

    Just digged into the new dynamos packing, mmm mmm does it not look nice comparing new to yeeeeeeears old car parts. It has a volt setpoint of 14.42 so i guess im swapping out the regulator with the 14.7 one. Isn't it weird how they don't increase the setpoint if its so much better with 14.7...
