I've read and watched many articles and videos about this gear system and to be honest they make something simple very complicated. This is what I do: 1. normal driving: yellow UP + red FORWARD + hub FREE 2.light 4x4: yellow DOWN + red FORWARD + hub LOCK 3. heavy 4x4: yellow DOWN + red BACKWARD...

That can't be it Webley I even use "locking hubs" (in front) which are on "free" almost all the time. Could that be a reason?! Puzzling thing is why always the same rear driver side halfshaft?

I can't figure this out myself. Engine is original 2.25 petrol. Ties are standard size. I guess its my driving. I agree entirely. To be honest I am starting think I should buy all the necessary tools little by little and do everything myself. These are not complicated cars. With proper...

Thanks for reply James. we opened and took out the halfshaft to see that the other end of it is cut so neatly as if by a machine. It was stuck in the diff and no matter what we did could not get it out. So we had to take the truck to the mechanic which spend half an hour hammering a rod from...

Hello Since I have broken my rear halfshaft again (#6 or 7 since I bought the truck) I need to change it and this time I want to do it myself maybe I would have better luck with it. I checked the manual and several videos but did not find a clear guide as how to do this. I imagine I do not have...

Rob do I have to take out the square thing thing to clean the threads? The only threads I see are where the bigger nut goes (the tightening nut) Citizen you are right but it requires tools which I do not have. I have done what you guys suggested and it has improved drastically on a straight...

Maybe I have the wrong manual? Mine in page 211 has only 4 short lines. Doesn't mention anything about lifting or isolating. That is what I am worried about. Problem is I am not even sure if it is a steering box problem.

Should front be lifted or not? Also, I have no idea how to "isolate". What do you mean? thank you both for replies

Hello people There are a couple of threads about this topic which I have read and watched a couple of videos but still not clear how tight should the adjusting nut be? I opened the cover today and tried it. It was tight to begin I loosened and tightened it again. Quite rankly did not make any...

Well I've never had the pleasure of meeting your charming wife but looking at my own girlfriend I tells you confidently: You should not try to make a chart for something consisting of infinite loops.

I am interested in starting a thread so wonderful and helpful people of this site work together and develop a series of diagnosis steps for different problems. What I mean is this: A step by step diagnosis procedure for every problem for series models. This would be very helpful. I do not have...

Steve there are two issues with that 2A manual. Firstly I dobt if we can just take literature from an existing copmany and make something with it without regards for their copyright. Secondly typing all that is a lot of work. Any text need to be in text frmat so can be copied and pasted into...

OK guys this will be a group effort if it ever get started. Objective is to develop a series of step by step guide to diagnos poblems in LR trucks. one way to do it would be 1. Each person who is interested to participate picks a specific problem and writes a step by step guide as how to test to...

personally I think planting a lawn is the sign of decline of any civilization. You have to keep on cutting it, knowing well in advance that it will grow up again, you keep on cutting the damned thing and it grows back again. Not only that, instead of trying to figure out how to make it stop...

I did the greasing and oil thing and it imporved the situation somewhat but not entirely. Next I will try your other suggestions, thanks for replies guys. I wish somebody would come up with a step by step diagnosis procedure for every problem for different models. Do this first if failed do...

Hello everybody Here are the symptoms: 1. When I drive in straight line when I hit a bump or hole it is harder than before to keep the truck in straight line 2. When I have to steer left or right car has a tendency to go a lot more in that direction than I intended and it is had to keep conrol...

Thanks for trying to help Joe. I had put back the original sensor which was used for th last 5 years. So that can't be the cause. I read the temperature of oil in the engine an water in radiator when it goes to red. Oil in the engine is 84.0 C and water in radiator is 83. They do not seem to...

I spoke too soon. We are back to square one again!!!

Joe I can only say what I saw. The logic of it I do not understand either. During the last 2 weeks I practically opened the cooling system piece by piece and had electritions doing hours and hours of wire checking and adding ground and changing questionable wires, etc. etc. nothing worked...

I am adding this in case anybody else had this problem in future. After checking every component of cooling system without solving the problem somebody suggest checking the carb, distributor and valves. We did a valve spacing adjustment and the guy used a timing light and checked the timing. He...
