Put new pins & bushes in yesterday & a much better striker today now the door is sitting too high & there is a gap where air is getting through near the b pillar. Is is just a matter of loosening off the 4 bolts again to adjust the door?

Yep thats how you aquire tools over time haha, i think ill just do the unbolt the hinges from the door trick & support it on something while i smack out the old pins, thanx for the tips fellas👍👍

Ok thanks mate thats how im gonna do it, ill get my bro to hold the door cos i cant completely take the door away cos of the elctrics loom

The top pin is gonna be tricky theres not really any room to line the punch up with the pin, but ill figure something out, cheers for the reply👍👍

Ive got new pins & bushes for my drivers door on my FD to put in but im not too sure how to get the old pins out so i thought id ask u guys b4 just whacking away with a hammer & centre punch

You dont need to change the rear bar, i just did it cos i had it lying around off a zk & it made the backend look like an fd thats all

The fuel flap door will fit but from memory i snapped off 1 off the threads so it would fit (youll see what i mean when you do the swap)

 

When you change the boot trim to fd i think youll have a couple of holes exposed from where the fe one was i just kept the fe bootlid which did look a little out of place also are you keeping the fe rear bar or going xe rear bar? I put all the surrounding trim & xe bar on mine

 

 

Theres some pics of mine in the showroom under "show us ur fairlanes/LTDs

I suppose if you had a big enough hole saw,the threads on the taillights are in different locations on fd to fe lights too

I was running fd taillights in my zl a few yrs back i just angle grinded the rear panel to fit the taillights not a pro job but worked you could probably unpick the rear panel off a zj zk fc fd & spot weld it to your fe after taking off the original one dont forget the wiring & globes which are wired to the tail lamps the light up nxt to the indicators

Cheers mate ill keep that in mind , just finished doing all 4 corners with that brake lube & its still squeaky is there any chance of the noise going away after a bit of driving or am i def gonna have to deglaze the pads?

Has brand new rotors & pads all round

Yeah i bedded them in, havent driven on gravel

 

 

I ve used "crc brakes be quiet" but i on put it on the back of the caliper & pad, im in the middle of doing the rears now.

Hi guys the new brakes that i put on are now squealing badly, i put some brake pad paste on the back of the front pads but its still no good any ideas?, do i need to do rears too?.

Cheers
