There are those that let down all professions I suppose. Just me being touchy Nick, ignore me John

Does part of you want us to talk you into buying the BFG's?

Now THAT'S forward thinking!

Quite right. Ouch! That hurt my feelings

I think you are going to struggle to tick all your boxes with a budget of £2.5k Can you pop a 300tdi in your 110 and spend the rest on refinements?

The whole prop or just a uj?

Terrible news, so sad!

What make parts did you use?

mine are doing this at the moment, they are cracked and there is a lot of movement.

Wow! You do know there's porn on the internet, don't you? I'm kidding of course

Well spotted!

I think that as soon as they are worn and begin to vibrate it is only a short time before they disintegrate and if they do so while you are driving your prop will fall off! It is for this reason that as soon as I begun to hear a very loud vibration I checked my uj's and attempted (and I mean attempted, I made a right cock-up of it ) to change it when I found play in the joint.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. I may even use some on my rear panels and cover over it with material.

probably a uj then if it started all of a sudden. just speaking from experience though, not through any great expertise so someone else may be able to suggest more things to look at.

sorry to hear this, hope they didn't cause too much damage.

first thing, check your uj's for play. Also check for play in transfer (does the prop have rotational play?) However, ever since getting my truck I have had a noise that sounds like someone vibrating a sheet of metal when I am in 4th or 5th and doing too low revs while trying to accelerate, particularly when going up a slight incline. I'm just very aware of it now and either accelerate more gently or change down into the correct gear. hope this helps

Retroanaconda is correct, non lifted up to 2" lift I've just bought some and I can notice an immediate difference, the drive train feels so much smoother. I don't have a lift and other than having 265/75/16r tyres, my truck is standard. Oh and Gwyn is a cracking chap, he even replied to my text asking what way round the props are fitted Hope this helps

Sorry to hear that fella, I really feel for you. Hope you get it back.

Such a tidy job! Makes me want to strip mine down and do it all up. Does the insulation protect against heat and sound?

The slight criticism mentioned aside, some great pics. I love laning in the Lakes simply because the scenery is so beautiful.

I agree but I have trouble spelling it

I'm so impressed with people's abilities and knowledge. I suppose if you started learning before you were 14 and your dad taught you a lot, you would be pretty knowledgeable by now! I began at the age of 29 and have learnt very little over the past two years. Still, plenty of time yet

there are lots of tyre size calculators on the web, like the one martifers above has suggested. Just google 'tyre size calculator' and try a few out. But probably best to get the correct speedo gear just so you know your speedo is correct. I found out recently that your speedo has to work to pass the MOT. However, it does not have to work correctly

what a mare! Sign o' the times though I'm affraid

Terrific, just what we need. With so many other options open to people, why do they do it?
