That sounds like a good fix - might have to get one and try it :D

Yeah my dad had a G-wagen many years ago with a centred diff - bad drive angle and it used to have serious vibration problems. Not sure why the designers even sold it like that.

Sometimes an easy fix is to run the uni's out of phase. Land Rover do this with the front drive shaft in a lot of Defenders as they were too skint to use a DC coupling as they did with the Disco.

and back in the seventies you would've almost got away with driving that down the road.

I used to love riding in the tray of Dad's Toyota ute. Half the neighbourhood's kids used to come to the tip with us crammed across the front bench just for a for a ride back home in the back of that ute. :laugh:

Imagine the kerfuffle these days if anyone saw a bunch of kids riding in a tray :(
 
Hey boys, do not get this, it's my old one, seen better days,

eBay Australia: Buy new & used fashion, electronics & home d

I hope for your sake this jerk doesn't win the bidding, this is the message I got from the buyer 3 days after the sale of my 031.

Hello - I am sorry to stuff you around but I was just wondering if I could not purchase this item as I have a saw exactly the same model already - if we could solve this problem this would great.Sorry about all the hassle.

Thanks
Angus

Blokes your wisdom please i gots a nice neat clean 93 series 80 cruiser its tip top about 250 clicks manual no turbo 8 seat version butz I'm pondering of updating to sumthin a wee smaller with the creature features of this century eg like 2005 TOYOTA HILUX (No Badge) KZN165R MY04 Ute Private Cars For Sale in VIC - carsales.com.au

More often need the tub for ma saws n gear or to drag the 65 bandit chipper weekend surfin or shootin runs. So don't need to cruiser size seats no more and kinda want auto & air bags both sides. $30K tops market but what other choices or ideas and was the circa 2005 hilux a good wagon please.

No rush its an idea under construction the cruiser good n happy.

That hilux is a pretty good buy I think. Most of the popular brand utes are pretty good these days and should do 300k without to many issues. Auto is also a good option if its going to be your daily driver. My latest ute is a navara auto and its so smooth you sometimes don't notice it changing - I won't be going back to manual any time soon. Just make sure you service the auto box once in a while and it will go for many miles.
 
Thats alright twas never a fan of the 31 or 34 series dunno why they just did not press me button meh heavy for lowish power the 26 did all I needed then stepped up to 64 or 66
A 16 inch bar,,, it looks a tad longer but that'll have it whizzin a chain

ok, i like the 034 myself, maybe cos it it was the first saw I got (not this saw that is for sale) it is a 16" bar, I use to run an 18" on it (see my sig)
use the 66 all the time and the 90, cutting big rings off all the time and then use the 34 with 18" to quarter rip them so i can lift them,

getting a mint 034 super soon, will post photos and its storey soon
 
Well in life at least i got to experiance real saws and they were yella

McBob.

Have run a few old Macs. More power than I thought, awesome sound, but would I be silly enough to run one in a work situation against a modern saw? Hell no.
Macs are like a HG/HK Monaro or Falcon GTHO. Great fun to bring out the shed occasionally and have a rev but that's about it...

Glad you showed up Matt, I was just about to trade all my saws in on some Macs... :chainsawguy:
 
Oh yeah young grasshopper me bull#### you have a few Mac's too i believe do i spill the beans now or later ?

Your loving bestest mate McBob. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx oooooooooooooooooooo's

come in spinner,,,,,again.
I like the young bit, makes me think i have only just begun and one day i may be big and strong enough to start and actualy race a big, powerful chainsaw like you uncle robert, and that would be soooooooo much fun.

On a seriouse note,,,,,, Many thanks to the mcbob for sending me a bdc methanol carby to try on one of my 125 hotsaws that i have in a working progress. One day the old HQ holden will simply slip into the line up UN NOTICED and do its thing.

That 090 bottom end i sent home for you does have some starter bits atached so you don't need to worry about that, have you got it yet.

Now ease up on that mate ####, or else i will tell on you......

Is your HQ powered Hotsaw running a 186 or a 202 Neil? I suppose a 253 or 308 is a bit heavy for a normal man such as yourself :)
