    Poorly treated 110 to be fixed, noob needs advice.

    Ahhhh.. good-o. Will check diagnols, that's a good idea if I can get accurate measure on them. Is the panhard forward of the wheel or sitting behind it - anti-roll bar possibly? It doesn't seem bent, should it be laser straight? Good enuff on the boxes then, wont touch them for now as...

    Poorly treated 110 to be fixed, noob needs advice.

    My bosses son took this for a drunken spin last year, on their land so no law enforcement involved but still not clever. Not so irresistable Landy met the immovable tree, smashed the wing obviously, but harder to see in the pictures is the left wheel got shunted back about 5". Amazingly it...

    Boss destroys his R380.. demands instant fix the ####.

    Wasn't sure, so I was grabbing at straws. So DL doesn't lock each axle, it locks the g-box? or transfer-box? TY

    Boss destroys his R380.. demands instant fix the ####.

    What 'que ridicule :) ' is a DMF??? googling now... christ.. hope it's not the DMF then. Just been back to the beast, started it up.. DL engages/disengages fine whilst crawling with or without the clutch.. but found an extra 1/4" of travel to sit it into High ratio. Wouldn't have found it...

    Boss destroys his R380.. demands instant fix the ####.

    Quick reply TMHM, cheers - don't think it's still in DL as all wheels were turning fine when raised - but that might be me remembering a previous thread wrongly? DL light is off, no problem engaging/disengaging DL, always been hard to engage LOW so I never bothered until I was told to. has...
