For those of my generation who do not use and cannot comprehend why Facebook exists: I am trying to make friends outside of Facebook while applying the same principles.

Re: Facebook taking over forums
The big attraction to facebook is everything is instant and contacting people is a breeze. Being a member of numerous 4x4 clubs I can see when trips are coming up from numerous posts all on one page without having to search.

Re: Raising the Terrano
If you want to do it on the cheap Izusu UB69 front shocks and rear springs fit and are longer than the terrano ones.
I used them along with monroe airshocks.
The izusu rear springs give an immediate 30mm lift in the rear straight away then just wind the torsion bars up.
Hope that helps.

Re: 11th 12th
Jack up the rear wheels and engage locker. While turning one wheel by hand: If both wheels spin same way = locked, opposite ways = unlocked. Compressor starting often indicates there's an air leak somewhere in the system. Sweet I will try that in the morning. I thought it may have been an air leak ...

Grinding noise in front.
Finally got the Challenger road worthy and decided to take it onto the beach to test the 4wd system.
When I put it in 4wd it starts grinding in the front left and the light for the center diff starts flashing.
Any Ideas what I should be looking at.
