I thought I would haunt the forum until a decent bid for squirrelbay arrives

Aah.

You got to admit Max Schreck is one spooky guy

Yup. He definitely had that natural something. His character was also the most true to form vampire I think they've ever put in a movie.

hehe I am Dutch... I am allowed to make a mistake like that....

I think mine might just be the steering damper....

Taint through the steering - its the whole truck. Plus mine crapped itself not so long ago so I know its not that.

I think I'll keep the avatar, or something similar, until november, it's ideal for halloween

[MattF]

Nope - might give that a try then.

It's worth a shot for starters. There are grease nipples on all of them, (unless any have been replaced with sealed aftermarket types). There's a diagram in the general mech section with all the grease points, I believe. If not, it's up on the downloads site.

Well theres no play in it - not got a grease gun so will have to borrow one. Takin' it back to the garage next weekend so they can look at - they sorted it last time. Can't work it out though as they checked all the bolts at MOT an they were fine (thats what they put it down to last time as some were loose)

Who knows eh?

If the whole truck is vibrating, (i.e you can feel it through the seat) it's usually 'cos the rear wheels need balancing.

Why would it get progressively worse though ? not sayin it's not but last time it happened it was with different wheels......

Are the rear tyres wearing evenly? Are they perfectly round and not oval?
Try swapping the rears with the fronts.

Will have a look. Will ask them to swap um round when it's on the ramp.

If the trucks taken a maaaasive bump then its possible the steel wheel has deformed a bit.


Would give a pretty bad ride i would think..
