Im stumped!!
Have had my FG MT for a few months now, have had it tore apart many many times, but the last time I had it apart I installed aluminum rear uprights, and now my Dogbones have enough play in them to actually throw themselves out of place. 3 seperate instances I have had the bones come out. There is not enough room to slide them back into place without taking parts off. But I am asuming that under torque, things bend and shift enough for the bones..both sides to eject. Have I possibly missed putting a simple part back in? Put something on backwards? Im stumped and have taken the rear end apart 3-4 times but nothing looks broken or cracked at all.
The only simple solution I can come up with is putting a washer between the axle and bearing on the rear upright to move the drive cup a few MM towards the diff, and the only down side I see to that is less threads to hold the wheel nut on. Would this solve my problem, or would it just cause more problems? Anyone else have the same issues? [:@][:@][:@] |
RE: Im stumped!!
possibly you might have you're rear arm stop set too low so the arms are travelling too far down and popping out of place ?

Check the turnbuckle from the upper arm to the upright. You may have to tighten the turnbuckle to shorten the distance of the top of the upright.
