p76rangie Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Just finished up the last of the things I wanted to do on the Rangie before starting the ute. I knew that I would not get a chance to work on the Rangie once I started the ute, so I wanted everything out of the way. The next day I started getting a clunking in the car. It was like the handbrake was locking on. So I pulled apart and adjusted the handbrake system twice. But it was still doing it. Finally tracked it down to the front diff. Pulled it out and found every bolt holding the crownwheel to the diff centre in various stages of being undone and a lot of metal with deep gouges in the diff housing from the bolts. Those crownwheel bolts had not been touched since being install around 10 years ago. So why do they come undone now. So does my Rangie love me and could not stand me not touching her for a long while or does it hate me and just keeps on coming up with things to fix.

bishbosh Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Don't take it personally - they all do it to us! Of course, your first mistake was using the word "finished"...... red rag to a bull that is for a RRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 What Bish said, if you use the "f" word around them you're asking for trouble The freebie was serviced the other day, I'm now waiting for the next thing to go wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
