Re: D40 Navara noise

V6 petrol or diesel?

Hard to say without hearing it.
But if it's a diesel, the injectors and the timing chain(s) would be my first gut reaction.

If it's a manual, it might be buggered springs in the clutch DMF...

Re: My d/s outer CV boot has been buggered for ages. I've lost a lot of grease.

... And to add a question to the OP (because I have the same situation)

Anyone recommend a decent rebuild kit?
(i.e. bellows + steel bands + grease + instructions etc)

Re: D40 offset bushings...?

Adjustable UCAs are generally required for lifts greater than 45mm (2") because extra travel is required as well as better camber and caster adjustment. Some UCAs are non adjustable but slightly longer to allow for a 2" - 4" lift. Keep in mind ALL aftermarket UCAs need the strut towe...

Front CV Axl recommendations....

My d/s outer CV boot has been buggered for ages. I've lost a lot of grease. So I thought it's a good opportunity to create a spare for off-road. I'll fit a new one and then remove the existing one and fix the boot & give it a birthday & keep for spare. Can anyone recommend a good brand of af...

Rusty Roof Channels

G'day Navheads, Has anyone else seen rust in their roof channels? (See photos) I'm about to fit a permanent flat tray roof rack, but I think I should fix/treat the rust first... Bodywork is not my strong suite. Anyone got advice for a straight forward method? How much do I sand back? Rust converter ...
