    Vibration at 1700-2000 D22 diesel 4x4 *PLEASE HELP*

    I had a similar problem with vibrating/humming coming from engine between those revs. Was quite loud and I thought I had done major damage in the engine due to the noise levels. Turns out one of the bolts holding the wind deflector/shield on top of the intercooler had rattled loose and fallen...

    Suspension Upgrades

    I have blue max gear all round, but it's the heavy duty springs in the rear. I've put about 5000kms on them now and I can't complain. Transformed the ride completely. Only get the heavy duty if you carry loads as I currently have 120kg in the tub to smooth it out until I put draws and a steel...

    Could have been the mounts. Won't know as I pulled the wheel arch ones out and greased them up, also tightened the next ones back at the same time I took the rock out. Maybe a bit of both.

    Well I just finished playing with the body mounts. I loosened, greased and retightened the two front ones in the wheel arches. Pulled up the carpet, broke both the plastic covers over the bolt heads and tightened both the ones in the front drivers and passenger footwell. Went to tighten the next...

    Hope that's all it is. From the quick checks I have done, all the suspension looks okay still. All the body mounts run off the chassis rails on brackets don't they? How many in total? Don't want to miss any..... On a side note it's already 30 outside and only going to get hotter not looking...

    So do you have anything in in the rear aswell?? I don't push to hard when on tracks and was thinking the front lokka would help just that little bit more. Also I now have a knock/thud coming through the drivers side front foot well when Corning hard to the left and hitting a bump or lumpy bit...

    Quick day trip nth nsw

    Hi all, Just a few picks from a quick trip my mate and I did today out in bungabee state forest near Lismore/Kyogle in NSW. It's only a small state Forrest but it's hilly and after rain it is fairly challenging and some of the tracks become a no go. My mate runs a kitted out triton...

    Raw suspension

    Yeah I figured that was the cause. I have a constant 120kgs in the back at the moment and it has now dropped to 795. Although springs still have a really good curve to them so I assume they are probably around a constant 250kgs or something similar. Pretty much all the vibrations have...

    Rear Pinion Angle Correction

    Where did you get the tail shaft spacer from? Did u happen to take any photos of the centre bearing when it was pulled to the rear slightly? I think mine is pulled to the rear also but I didn't take any notice of what it looked like before hand. Did u end up using the wedges?

    Raw suspension

    Hey mate 805mm on both sides at the rear. Can't tell you what is was before hand but has jumped up heaps as my old springs were nearly flat!! I've maintained a decent gap for the bump stops at the front so my truck has that nose down, rear raised look That measurement is with 4 bags of cement...

    I'll measure it tomorrow for you. I got heaps though as the springs were nearly flat.

    4wd suspension

    Yeah I have thrown 4 20kg bags of cement I have that have gone hard. Seems to have smoothed it out a little. Just means I'll have to hurry up and build the canopy and draws!

    4wd suspension

    No I don't have constant weight just yet. Got the heavy kit for future plans of canopy and draws. If I chuck in a couple of bags of old cement I have laying around will this help with the vibrations?? Or can I takeout a leaf from the pack, and if so is it the third leaf from the top?

    Rear Pinion Angle Correction

    Did you end up getting the wedges? If so what degree and how has it ended up?

    4wd suspension

    Zordo I have installed the kit I mentioned above and now I'm getting constant vibrations. More noticeable when I take off and I can hear a constant hum, especially around 80-90km/h. The springs are mounted with the short end forward and I was thinking if I turn them around it will straighten out...

    Raw suspension

    Yeah good point. Does anyone know for sure any problems that might arise from putting the springs with the long side forward

    Raw suspension

    Bods, what do think about swapping them around the other way??
  18. Smarto

    Raw suspension

    No the bushes will fit either end, I had a look before install. I only installed them this way as the standard springs have the short side to the front so I just followed suit. Had a look at a mates triton with ultimate springs fitted and whilst a little different, his appear around the other...

    Raw suspension

    Hmm I put in blue max springs(heavy duty) and as u can see in the pics, the retainer is not that far away from the bump stop. I tried jamming the tape measure in there for a size comparison but it wouldn't fit! That's how close they are. If I spun the springs around then there is no bracket in...

    Raw suspension

    To me it looks like the leaves are around the wrong way. Shouldn't that bracket on the springs, about 200 mm back from the front pin, be behind the axle?? Only reason I ask is I installed my suspension yesterday and I'm pretty sure it's the wrong way around. If it compresses fully then the bump...
