That could be a multitude of things mate ranging from the power steering pump, the alternator or the water pump. Personally I don’t think it’s the water pump as they make more of a metallic noise. Check your power steering fluid level and see if it looks burnt. After that, you need to drop...

West Midlands.

No but @Tom Johnson is - aka fulcrum motorsport. These forks are a collaboration between me and him.

Which synchros are you after?

Yeah. I’ll pm you now 😘

Just my pants over the top of my jeans. 😂😂

Cliosport.net exclusive here folks. Billet forks are here with me and I’ve installed them in a test gearbox to make sure they’re ok. The fit is like a glove, and the quality is bang on. And it’s safe to say, they look the part as well! Next step is to put them in the development gearbox and...

They’re new production bearings mate. Hmm not sure until you’ve seen the Chinese bearings and then ran them to see what the quality is like.

Good news. I’ve sourced replacement large diff bearings. Downside is they’re £170, but should be able to get them cheaper if bought in bulk. 👍🏻

As most of you will all know, I’ve probably stripped and rebuilt more jc5 boxes than I’ve had wanks (lots of!). So thanks to Renault stopping making the selector forks for 1st/2nd gear and 3rd/4th becoming increasingly harder to get hold of, it pretty much spells the end of the line for jc5...

Fair play for giving it a go mate at least. A lot of the time the generic code readers can lead you up the garden path tbh. You will never beat product knowledge and the correct diagnostic software specific to the product either. And even then, it’s the product knowledge that gets you out the...

I know that corner very well mate. I’ve had an off in pretty much the exact same spot, only difference being I was on 2 wheels and around 10/15mph faster when I entered the arena. And yes, it f**king hurt. 😂😂

It would mate yeah. I’d go blackline simply because it’s cheaper.

Yes to all. Its a quaife rip off mate.

In fact @1985michael182 is a bodyshop pervert! He would be best placed to answer this.

They’ll need prep either way mate, so if they’re already in 2k lacquer, in theory they should take less prep. Depends how pinholed the finish is to start with.

Very unlikely mate as you need special pullers to remove some of the gears.

I know a man who could remove them and make you some new ones that are substantially stronger.

Nah. Now Christmas and New Year is out the way, I’ll chase it up at some point.

2ltrs

I do yeah. He’s already messaged me and I’ve mentioned a few areas to check before he rips it out. 👍🏻

yeah belt driven mate. Another very good shout

Yeah water pump was my first thought tbf

Sean Edwards is in Solihull and he’s a well regarded Renault specialist.

I’d like to suggest https://www.mndassociation.org/ One of our service advisors sadly lost her husband to this disease. As soon as he was diagnosed, she left work and was on full pay from the company we work for. She would come into work to see us all, and despite everything that was going on...

Yep. Puts the load directly on the bearing and it unwinds itself 👀

The nut isn’t all the way down, so yes it will. But the big problem comes with if the nut has a wear groove where the preload washer sits. If it does, you tighten the nut onto the bearing and not the preload washer. Guess what happens then.

Here’s hoping it’s not been cross threaded then.

f**king hell! Can you spin the nut with your fingers?

130nm is the torque setting. There’s only an image mate, not a video attached.
