is it offensive if i rock up to the micolour thing in a dirty car?

I have rocked up to uncle Mick's with coloured cable ties stiching together the bar he has modified, painted and fitted... you will be fine in a dirty car

getting quotes for new tyres for hilux so boss can make a decision... stupid tyre sizes from toyota. 205/80/16. "butter cutters" (apparently). bit pricey for what they are...

Bob Jane tried very hard to sell me 245/70/16 reckons they would fit fine on a 6" wide wheel.

Tyre Factory across the road said 245 shouldnt be chucked on a 6" wide. I dont know if he's right, but theres plenty of people driving hiluxs with stock wheels and 265 wides or bigger on them. is it because such tall profile? or because bogan?

    • Just install a grease nipple into the centre of the outer steel of the FUCA. Make sure the bushes aren't long enough to touch each other underneath that nipple. Cut a few mm off each if need be. Then you can push grease in there while it is all assembled. That was the very first thing I did (to all 4 ends) of the FUCAs on my 32 when I put Whiteline adjustable bushes into them. They would squeeze the grease out real fast, and I could squeeze it back in faster.
    • @GTSBoy I found the issue (sort of) when I took apart the bushing again, it was completely dry inside! When I experimented with it, all the grease would push out when I would compress the bushings. I wonder if this has anything to do with me putting in the poly bush first on both sides and then pushing in the metal barrel. Maybe I should have put in the metal barrel first then the rubber bushings so the spread pattern is different.   It's fixed (for now).
    • Just redid that entire job. 4 hours, but tightened everything properly. Had to jack the rotor instead of having the car on blocks as there was no room for the FUCA arms to tighten and the j arm. All good now. Cheers for the help!
    • I would sell those side feeds before you hydra-lock a motor. I won't say too much about Yellow Jackets because I'll hurt people's feelings, however ask those that tune RBs day in/out what they think of them.
    • The 1000ccs are side feeds but they're not currently installed, had my old factory ones in for leak testing purposes, only decided on them because front facing plenums and good top feed rail kits are out of my budget at the moment, are they really that problematic? Had a set of yellow jackets that lasted me 5 years, no real issues, only replaced them chasing this misfire issue that ended up not being ignition related 😄
