LOWERING

published by 20H2 on Thu, 09/05/2019 - 22:27

If my front shocks are good is it really necessary to change them when i put lower springs in, looking at 30mm lower spring than normal.

trimatic gearbox went Bang!

published by weekendwarrior on Sun, 05/05/2019 - 10:51

Now it selects gears but won't drive, sounds like its not spinning the tailshaft to drive the rear wheels, and it grinds when i return it to park, and holds in park, all gears select, but no power to the wheels, what went BANG! ??

Dodgy X2

published by Old is good on Sat, 04/05/2019 - 19:02

The Rattletrap races were on at Crowdy Head beach today.
This was a sidevalve Dodge Six with twin Holden Strombergs and headers made using the exhaust flange from a grey motor. The inlet and exhaust manifolds were home made.
Some more pics attached, including a surfwagon.

Problem solved.

A while ago I put a post up about the EH dropping out of tune at random on the highway and not running 100%.
Nathan finally saw his mate who knows a bit about Dellortos this afternoon.
He popped the bonnet and said it's idling like it has a vacuum leak.
Then he saw the vacuum advance and said that you don't run vacuum advance with Dellortos.
He disconnected the vacuum advance, did a static timing adjustment and the idle improved 100%. Then he had a quick fiddle with the carbies.
Nathan took it for a test drive and fishtailed up the street.

HRX2 Ute

published by 68surfwagon on Thu, 02/05/2019 - 21:16

So i found this pic and looking at it it's a HR X2 Ute,now i know Holden did offer the X2 in the Ute and Panel van in the HR and HD but whether any one actually ordered one back then is another thing.There can't be to many of these left,that's if this is a real one,I know they're easily made up but has anyone seen one?..
