So whats the consensus with most ppl on here, staggered fitment or same all round???? I'm assuming the spare will be to suit the rears yes (OD) I am in the fortunate position to get a free ride in regards to freight from the U.S so I might get treads at the same time...

ok sounds good,so does the car need to go on the rollers to have it tuned or is it just flashed in and drive away??

Cool Brendan well hopefully Simon has it sussed in time for my next trans service....even though this is not the forum to talk about it can you quickly extol the virtues of such tuning....( chippa been drinking again)

Tuning the ZF sounds like a real head f#@k is it really worth doing????.......I heard its about 2 weeks away.... I did the conversion to steel pan etc some time ago with TZ runs great no probs...if I had a hoist I'd do it myself its not a hard job really to do...used to do my C4 all the time..... P.S you need to teach me how to use live link 6.3...

Should only need 1.6 ltrs of diff oil go to supercheap or somewhere and get a hand pump like Arron said makes life alot easier.....Steve dont know what additive they are using mate but its not needed with the SAF-XA its already in it.......bout time you serviced the auto in your mega high k chariot or have you already done the conversion????

I have had the Steel pan conversion done...I have dropped the oil once and had TZ put in...and that was about 1-1/2 years ago and no probs at all. It is going to be dumped again soon and filled back up with TZ...I think that if you stick to the same routine in regards to warming up your driveline as I do everytime before I open her up all should be good , I think that this the key to longevity but I'm realistic enough to understand that wear will happen no matter what. My two cents

Oils Ain't Oils: Best Engine Oil for the Barra Turbo
That really sh*ts me because I sent an email to Nulon a while ago asking them for there advice with the extra power that I was running and they recommended the 15w50 which I have been running for the last 25k (just serviced it @55k with 15w50 again,do it every 5k). I'm really over this subject how can Ford and other oils say run a 15w40 and others say a 0w40 for the same motor??? My way of thinking was with the extra power going up to the 50 wouldnt be such a stretch with the extra boost etc... I just think that I will give the 0w40 a go on the next change to see what it is like....very confused I'm going outside to have a beer and talk to my dog about it....haha

Who's running KU 36's ???? I run Toyo T1Rs hence the reason why I didnt run as I cant afford to f*ck them atm.....need to get back up north on a 8n6 (Perth coin is sucking balls)so I can afford to do stuff again.... P.S go the white EF in the snakepit last night!!!! engine hung on rather well considering the pain he was giving it and was still running after popping both rears....couldnt say the same for the commos haha...
