martin leech your own players! he's mine!

So i took the brumby to work today, checked it over on the hoist. Looks like im making a new exhaust sytem for natalie! also replacing tie rods and rod ends, and bushes, and seals, and trying to fix the stupid amount of movement in the shifter.

What is a brumby rated at carrying ? It's not a 1 ton is it ?

Slop in the shifter is from 2 things. THe split pin through the shifter into the linkage wears, as does the bottom bush that sits in the gearbox housing that the shifter sits in.

yer scott i can flex that roll pin that goes onto the selector shaft, i was goin to replace that, can you still get them genuine? haha can still get front shocks for them, $150 a corner, everywhere else is wanting about $550 a pair trade cost. As for the exhaust i'll make one up during the week and fit it up when i get back. Really could do with a tune up, also replacing the filters and fluids.

Whats a good gearbox oil to use?

You should be able to get a roll pin new still. NOS or something.

Any hypoid type gearoil is what's in order with those boxes. Depends on how fast you want to shift I guess....

Yes! that is awesome port! I need to get me more of that.

Cheers for the advice, i'll just roll with some of the 75W-90 Penrite i got here, doubt the oil has been done in a long time, probably low with the amount of oil everywhere around it

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
