May 2, 201213 yr Author comment_385 Swivel hubs need doing and I have a scary clunk in the front in 4WD. Report
May 2, 201213 yr Author comment_414 Yeah that's what I'm thinking as I use mine as a daily as well. Report
May 2, 201213 yr comment_448 Nice wagon, I am with you guy's on the 4" being a safe hight lift for a daily, have you fitted a winch to your Xrox bar yet? I am interested as we went to fit my mate winch to his only to find we need to get a winch plate to fastern the winch to as I am not willing to take the risk pf mounting the winch to the bar as it is only 5mm thick and I would mount a winch to anything under 10mm. Interested to hear what everyone else thinks to. Report
May 2, 201213 yr Author comment_450 I don't have a winch yet but I will be getting one soon though. I'll have to sus out that plate issue. Cheers Report

May 3, 201213 yr Author comment_535 Yeah they seem okay, Ive leant it against rocks and walls a few times ant it takes it pretty well Report
May 8, 201213 yr comment_926 nice truck man. that clunk that your talking about in the front end, is it when you turn your steering left and right ? i have same set up with 5" lift and when i turn side to side i get a loud clunk from what i can see it looks like the springs reseating no really sure tho. what do you think of those s Amarda extreme shocks? are they real soft or do they hold the weight of the truck and what length are they at? Mick Report
May 8, 201213 yr Author comment_939 Thanks mate, actually up for sale but the only reason i'd let go of it would be for a TD GQ. To be honest I am unsure of the length. the clunk is when load is taken off the front end then back on, almost sounds like shocks but they are pretty new. I love the Amaradas but I think they need to be re-valved, the front end is a bit too soft. Report
