How'd the 4.10's instal go Roscoe?????????????????
Any stories????
OK here goes.
Storm damage cleaned up inside for now, just waiting for windows to replace the plastic sheeting, could be a while as there are hundreds of houses to do and Blackwater has one glazier,(when he is not pissed at the bowls club) I spent all yesterday picking up glass and picking it out of the gyprock walls. Still got the outside to clean up. J10 coped it with many small hail dints, broken windscreen, mirror. Hail was the size of golf balls.
The 4.1's performed well on the way home, very noticeable difference to the "get up and go". now sits on 2050rpm at 100Ks instead of 1850, even Imelda asked what I did to it as it seems to go quicker when overtaking and she does not understand what I did to it or what ratio's do.The fuel consumption seemed to be a bit better but I will not make judgement on that yet until I have run a few more tank fulls through it to get a fair comparison. Since I have been home I have been running around with it in 4WD FULLTIME to wear in the front R&P before I have to use it under heavy load and the only time you notice the DTT's is a slightly heavier steering on tight corners and a stronger return to center, the rear diff does get a slight whine at around 85 to 95 Ks under hard acceleration but it is not unbearable.
Need a wheel alignment now as car pulls to the left but thats easy fixed, just have to wait till I go to Mackay next.
Hey Fro's
I would probable NOT mention anything about getting these to Sugie. If she rips your shoulder out over a game of scrable I can't imagine what she will do to you if you go to her on one knee asking if you can spend a couple of grand on the Jeep.
