Ticking Noise
Could be the fan under the passenger side dash. Mine makes a ticking sound when the fan is on. Then again you said only when accelerating so probably not.

Qld Cruises And Events
I will go for a run down there one night this week and have a look. Maybe something like the Mt Cootha leg of the last night cruise to port of brisbane? If any sunny coasters attend they can head straight back on the motorway from there. Either that or we can all just go and do demo's on the restricted roads down behind the old airport?

Power Steering Cutting Out
Maybe a belt tensioner on its way out, may have deformed a little and is not holding tension at idle. Unforunately they are plastic and can suffer due to the intense heat.

Is there any interest for a Brisbane night cruise?

Did You Know...
They screwed up and quoted you for electric? I bought mine through supercheap about 6 months ago, full sweep mechanical cobalt 30/20 and it was about $120. Take the gauge part number in with you and go to a different store. Unfortunately some SCA staff have no idea what they are talking about...

One For The Experts
My car has done 47,000k's, it rattles from the front badly over small bumps like you said. I thought it was suspension, but turned out to be brake pad rattle. A new set of pads with anti-rattle shims will be going in soon. This may or may not be your issue, but here's a thread on it: http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/index.ph...c=54239&hl=

What Wheel Should I Get?
The konig's are a nice choice, but the Gram Lights are awesome. Black on black looks good but is becoming pretty common. Both will look hot though.

New Ride :)
GVM - Gross Vehicle Mass is the accepted safe, maximum allowable total mass of a fully loaded motor vehicle. It consists of the kerb mass (mass of the vehicle itself with all operating fluids) plus the payload. In other words, carrying your maximum payload plus weight of the car, that is what the total weight would be. Utes weigh in around 1700 - 1800kgs from memory. Nice ride and

Out of curiosity, what sort of tail light setup were you going to use?

Problem With Lowering Blocks
No worries mate, hope that's all it is. If you still have concerns take it to pedders or a suspension specialist to check that everything is lined up correctly, if not it shouldnt be much of a drama to reallign it. JMan had it done a little while ago on his ute after Ford incorrectly fitted his new diff. Details here.

Problem With Lowering Blocks
The passenger side of the tub sits closer to the cab than the drivers side, and you can see it by how the tub and cab side skirts dont line up. Also the top of the tub skirts that meet the body are cut substantially thinner then the top of the skirts on the cab, so because my tub sits awkwardly and both the skirts have been cut to thin, the drivers side skirts pretty much line up and the passenger one sits way to far in. But as you were saying, I had a quick look and the passenger rim does sit out further than the drivers, and I put this down to poor placement of my tub, it sits over all to the right by a few mm and is fitted on a weird angle.

Problem With Lowering Blocks
Check that the tub sits square on the ute, my ute has never been in an accident but the tub is not quite square. The gap between the cab and the tub is different on each side, this makes the wheels appear to sit differently on each on side. ford told me it was a problem from the factory, I chose not to pursue it out of fear they would only make it worse.
