Have you tried yelling at it?
-
Haha, i find this amusing

I've had this problem on an xf Ute, just how it was built is the conclusion I came to. You don't notice it till you fit wheels that struggle to fit under the guards. Also had similar issues on the front.

I bought a ex cop xd 20+ years ago from a car yard, I was 17 at the time. It had a top loader and 9" wouldn't have a clue if it was factory. Really should of kept that one. I know the guy who owns it now but haven't seen him in years.

can anyone id this diff? SOLVED ( EA/EB wagon diff. 91DA part number... 3.27:1)

I think you will find the offset from the bearing to flange is different, I'd guess around 15mm. The flange would foul on the drum brake internals, I could be wrong. -

Its like the game guess who. Dose your diff have solid disks? Yes. Is your diff a EA/EB wagon diff? Flips down picture. -
The best way to eliminate top loaders poor shifting issues is to replace it with a Borg Warner. I've never had a top loader that liked to shift gears quickly. I snapped part of the shifter mount on one years ago trying to force it throu3the gears. After that went auto, never looked back but yeah I didn't really answer any of your questions did I.

I know a guy with a blue el has the same affect, looks pinky, purply. I've also seen another blue el like this. I just assume it had had a fancy coat painted over the base colour, maybe as a dealer option?

Hang on, was it a points dissy originally? Then yeah not 12v
-
If you are talking about the wire I think you are its not a 12v wire.

Cheers guys, that clears up my confusion. About 20years ago I swapped a 40 from an xf in to an xr, I need to used the xf tail shaft, because from memory the 35 was shorter, but pretty sure I read somewhere else that 35 and 40 were same, so yeah confused about why I had to use the xf tail shaft. With the corty tail shaft i was worried about the length.
-
Now that I think about it, I think I'm wrong and that the xmember mount is further back but the overall lengths are the same. If anyone could confirm or tell me different would be great
-
Hi all, I think i vaguely remember that the 35 was shorter then the 40. I'm I right or wrong? And dose anyone know what year ford changed from 35 to 40. I need a trans for a corty, I'm sure they had 35s, don't want to get a 40 and the tail shaft doesn't work. Cheers

Hi All, Can anyone tell me the internal diameter of a xd,e,f front spring Cheers
-
Cheers
-
Yeah talked to one of the main suppliers for king springs recently and they were useless. I'll probably call past the self serve wreckers to measure it myself when I have time, just thought someone on here would have a spring out they could take 5 min to measure, guess not.
-
Anyone?
-
If it is possible I should of added

If you were keen on the 300 I think you would be better off looking at fitting an xflow head to one. Something I'd be interested in myself
-
I've got a xflow in the shed, was in a running car when removed, no bolt in the balancer. This is a cast head xflow. Probably fine when stock as they run out of steam before 4k rpm

Hi All, So my engine has develop a noise which I would describe as a chatter from around 3000 rpm. Normal driving I change gear around 3000 and the engine produces the chatter noise. If I put my foot down the engine make more of a rattling noise from 3000 up but it's not as noticeable. Im thinking valve train so I checked and adjusted the lash at .020, no change. I thinking possibly harmonic vibration, hope not. Anyone have any ideas or what else it could possibly be? Cheers
-
Yeah I don't think its any bolt ons, and auto. Pretty sure if it was a fan belt issues the belt would liberate it's self but I'll check it out
-
Possibly loose flexplate but its not making noise at idle. I am going to pull the trans to check when I have a chance.
-
You know what didn't try this, just did and its not making the noise.
