Don't worry about the problems the fun you have in it will soon stop you thinking about little problems. Go buy it you'll love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will upgrade like others to DBA rotors and QFM pads.stock auto XR6T .... just biding my time for a good trans mod prior to upgrade power with a chip/kit.The utes are NOT prone to the driveline clunking as are the sedans, due to the solid rear axle. And they go like cut snakes! go on. you know you want it. just be wary of the history of the previous owner.How much are they asking, and how many km's?

YOOT Member 1,201 Member For: 21y 8m 4d Location: Birkdale Posted 27/05/04 02:39 AM Share Posted 27/05/04 02:39 AM ^^^^^^^You little ripper!!!!^^^^^^^^^^^ About the diff clunk.I had this theory in mind when I decided on the ute, figured, can't remember the AU's ever having a diff lcunk and the BA is much the same at the rear and the diff is most likely identical so it shouldn't have it.How hard to the go? Will my new ute go like a cut snake, with three pedals and all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
