corkey

I removed the filter gauze out of mine and fitted the earls inline kit

I have bent 2 left hand axles! one standard and one lowered, its the axle tramp that caused mine to bend :(

this.....

yeah mate, pretty sure mal wood does top mounted tramp rods and aussiemusclecars.com sell them as well (low mount)

I got a cat back exhaust with hurricane mufflers, sounds pretty good

sweeet!!

I bough my 2008 manual turbo ute in jan 2009 for 36,500 brand new, all stock except for the 18's (dash green)

not true. I have pedders leaf springs in my fg ute, which were full replacements. the top spring has been flipped and new eye bushes for about $400 bucks(not fitted)

mine is the king of tramp!! never used too when I bought it but ever since I lowered it and put the 20's on it, it has been a nightmare

I might come along on this cruise. its been a while......

I dont know if your reply was aimed at me or not but lowered 35mm in the front and bout 60mm in the back. I agree with what was said above. replacement springs are a good idea incase you ever want to put it back to standard.

I know mines not ba/bf but here is a pic of mine. pedders springs front and rear.

I sure hope so!! but im not sure??

I have lowered my ute. has pedders front springs and pedders rear springs. lowered about 40mm in the front and 60mm in the back. so far all seems to be going smoothly(touch wood). ute is manual xr6 turbo

mine is also a biatch to fill, clicks like crazy. mine starts moving after about 30km. my mates ba starts moving about 100km

HEY GUYS AND GALS! my name is corey I have had an fg xr6t ute for just over a year now, have only been on one cruise since I have had it. started to do a couple things to it to make it look a little nicer. got 20" wheels, lowered and had the centre muffer removed.(was too quiet)Got a nice note now. want to get on some more cruises this year. would love to modify it but im loving the warranty right now(when they actually decide to fix it).

mine does the same with the hand brake, ford said it was happening with a few and were waiting for a fix from ford. mine is a manual, usually happens when the a/c compressor kicks in.

I have also seen the gt an pinkenba, I did a bit of a slide round the corner, didnt realise at the time. haha

is yours auto or manual, I am lowering my fg and im hearing it is only a prob with the autos.?

biggest load ive ever had

what dealer are you going to?? my manual has a driveline knock and metro ford what do anything about it.

hey, I called ford a week back and they said I could do a cat back exhaust, I was not allowed to do the dump or cat. I just had the centre muffler removed and a y piece put in and it sounds pretty nice.

I would prob go to the dealer first and tell them, but you have to ram it into their skulls to check it. I had my ute up on the hoist at work and saw that the diff bushes were starting to perish, so I told ford and they came back and said they have tightened up all the suspension to rectify the noise and I was like WTF u idiots!!

you just cant trust dealerships anymore, they just tell u they found something just to keep u happy. I am a mechanic myself and they treat me like im a fu&^n idiot. have checked my spare tyre and it is firmly secured. in regards to checking the unis, you need to hold either side of the joint and rotate them in opposite directions back and forth and feel for movement. if you have a 4 post hoist, that would be best because the uni will be at its normal operating angle. if you use a 2 post hoist the uni angle will increase due the suspension drop

I am another fg ute owner experiencing driveline issues, I had a sqeeking noise in the rear which was a bent axel. ford tried to tell me I was doing all sorts of naughty stuff. I also seem to have excessive backlash between gear changes as well as other times, does anyone else have this excessive noise? its an xr6t man.
