So unfortunately I went up a steep driveway with the ute full of pavers and damaged the rear bar. I'm going to go to a wreckers and get a replacement, can someone please give some advice on the best way to remove it? Thanks

Now that you mention it, the rear does seem to bounce up and down a bit more than it should on bumpy roads. Also, I decided to check the wheel nuts just in case and one was only finger tight. Since tightening that up I have noticed an improvement.

No I am not dumping the clutch, and I've been driving manual for nearly 20 years. What I am referring to does not involve the clutch. Foot down a touch too much whilst accelerating in 2nd or 3rd gear, it snaps sideways uncontrollably. What I would expect to happen, even with sh*tty tyres, is for the car to continue in a straight line whilst wheelspinning. It doesn't. This is with traction control on OR off.

It's a manual NA BF with what I believe is a single spinner diff. It does have traction control, however it is easy to lose control of this vehicle even with the TC enabled. Put your foot down 1mm too far, and you're sideways. TC or not. I do plan on upgrading the tyres in the near future, probably to a set of Goodyear. I've had them on a couple of my previous cars and was very happy with them.

Yes the tyres are sh*t, theyre Winda's. My problem is not that the wheelspin is happening, it's that when it does happen, it's completely unpredictable and uncontrollable.

Hi guys, My first post here. I recently purchased a BF XR6 Uterus which I have been very happy with. Unfortunately it's my first car with a decent amount of torque (my other vehicles have all been Jap 4 cyl's). The XR6 handles fine in the dry, but in the wet if I'm going in a straight line and give it a boot in 2nd or 3rd, I lose traction and the rear kicks out to the right in a fraction of a second. I came very close to losing it today which is why I am after some advice. Is this normal behaviour? Thanks
