Any tricks here to stop it ?

Was advised against loktite as links are expected to wear quickly with the big arse bar.

6 sided socket, not 12. ;)

My end links are fine still. I doubt you will need to change them in 10 years if they were replaced.

I filed 2 flats on the shaft (just outside the dust boot) this allows you to hold the shaft stationary whilst tightening the nut. Using low strength loctite won't be an issue if you can hold the shaft

Are you using the OEM style flanged nuts?

The powdercoat may also be compressing beneath the nut if it has been applied thickly; maybe shave it down to allowe the nut to bite properly into the bar itself.

You could also try a nyloc nut.

With anything suspension related, I always do the final tensioning with everything at the running ride height, on ramps is ideal.

Ok getting sick of knocking in the front end.

Can feel it through the pedals.

Tried tightening up the sway bar, but literally comes loose again in a day.

It's the bolts that connect the sway bar to the links.

Used a perfect fit spanner and cranked until the point of snapping it.

Still a faint knocking.

Thinking of replacing the links with Whiteline ones.

But can only find them for WC34 (KLC108)

Yo "wagoneers', my shocks have gone on my ARX. To replace all 4 OEM shocks through Amayama is going to be around 1300 delivered.

What alternative do I have? I don't want to lose much height so I think the BC coilovers are out. Happy to lose max 20mill.

Any ideas on other alternatives?

Anyone know of anyone who's wanting to get rid of their stock suspension? (obviously it'd have to be in tip top nic)

Cheers in advance

I thought ARX was higher ride height so different suspension to RS and RX. If so do they make ARX specific coilovers? Otherwise the coilovers will lower the car even at their highest setting. Anyway, I'm happy with the ride, fitment and quality of my MCA blues. I asked the same question about stock ride height and you can do so with the MCAs. Not sure about the rear height with the BCs which are not a coilover but a seperate spring and shock.Yes, I'll keep an eye on my shock mounts!

The sales rep spoke of those but strongly suggested going one step further to the XC spec making me think that Blue's were simply in there to cover market share.

1500 isn't so bad, I assume they'd still be better than stock ARX suspension. Anyone with the Blue's fitted?

I'll follow up with BC tomorrow and see what they can do; if not, i'll go with MCA I reckon.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
