    What to look for when checking out a new motor?

    Yep. Hopefully it all checks out. The box not being a t5 sucks a bit, I'm kinda hoping it's a four speed lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Seller has never claimed it's a t5, just that it's a five speed. And it could still be a 650 two barrel, won't know until I look at it. He's given me no real reason to doubt him, I'm probably just being a bit paranoid. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I always thought you needed a spacer, or aftermarket cover too. One reason why so many use aussiespeed rocker covers.

    Thanks guys, sure is risky buying like this. Especially when a stocker Crossy is worth a couple of hundy at best so if the motor isn't what it's supposed to be then it's an expensive aussiespeed manifold and Holley lol. its a near two hour drive each way for me, so I'm taking the trailer with me if it's any good but I'm quite prepared to come back empty handed if it seems dodge.

    XF Ute Drum to Disc

    Old post, but I'm currently planning my diff swap, and trawling through some old posts. Do the e series wagons springs bolt straight into xf? Wasn't planning on a spring swap, but I'm guessing normal wagon Springs will ride much much much better than my heavy duty Spring pack.

    PERFORMANCE GOLD 15X7

    Yeah not many can pull of 20s. Seen a few that look good but so easy to look out of proportion. I had 20s on my old ute, and got rid of them and went to old school 15x8s and it looked better and drove much better.

    PERFORMANCE GOLD 15X7

    Simmons Are too common these days. They still look good but it's like the default option when you can't think of what wheel to buy.

    I'm leaning more towards charcoal centres. I like the contrast against the bright yellow. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    I'm going 17s to give me room for a brake upgrade if I go that way in the future.

  20. Probably the best thread to ask this, What brand of ball joints allow the most movement before they bind? Thinking I might have to bite the bullet and just redo everything in the front end of mine.

    Panko's Mk1 Escort (Round 2)

    Yeah I've never had a mk1 but had a few mk2s. None however were factory standard lol so quite possibly all done after factory.

    Panko's Mk1 Escort (Round 2)

    Why would an escort need s two piece shaft anyway? I don't think any of my mk2's had one, they were all one piece.
