Hey Geeves
Do you know anywhere I can download the maintenance manual from?
Thought I'd better check how often I 'should' be replacing things..

Cheers

grab the mu owners manual from here viewtopic.php?f=12&t=4123
and the kb ute manual.
Believe it or not I do have a real owners manual for my bighorn but at 200 pages its a bit big to scan. Bought it from the local holden dealer 19 years ago soon after buying my bighorn

Sweet cheers mate looks like I'm not far off the recommended intervals anyway.. my services go up in 6 monthly intervals though rather then K's as do my car cleaning regimes, probably a good job we have to get a wof twice a year or the truck would get really neglected ha..

That Manual is probably quite rare now , is it still in good condition?

by **geeves** » Sun Apr 27, 2014 2:33 pm

im still using it but if and when I dispose of the bighorn it will be sold separately

by **damo667** » Sun Apr 27, 2014 9:01 pm

well I'll be keen, but I'm surprised you wont be keeping it as a memento after 20 years or so

by **geeves** » Mon Apr 28, 2014 5:54 pm

Id love to scan it but at 177 pages it would take forever
It has a part no you might be able to try at your local dealer.

FYI, there is a site called autozone in the States.You can access manuals (not just engine) for just about any vehicle you can think of.Also a lot of non genuine and aftermarket parts. Sorry, cant post a link.

Hi Geeves

Do you know where I can get a copy of a manual that has 'blow ups' of the front suspension, I've got to do the bushes on my upper arm plus a joint on my steering idler for a wof..

Cheers

just use tf rodeo manual or 2.8 mu manual they are identical setup

by **geeves** » Sun Jun 21, 2015 9:44 am

The bushes can be a pain if they are original rubber. You need a big press. Best way is take the arms off and take them to a local garage or engineer. Poly ones are much easier but they will always squeak once the grease comes out You cant get greasable pins. CRC will help till the next time you drive in the rain then squeak again. Idler and ball joint fairly easy

by **damo667** » Sun Jun 21, 2015 9:08 pm

Sweet I found the manual on the other manual thread. (tfs/Mu workshop manuals (in zip file) http://www.mediafire.com/?cde7nc5v6j8d8)

Yeah those bushes sound like fun, :shock:

I'm hoping to swap current rubber bushes like for like, I dont like the sound of the poly ones.. supposedly too much poly stiffens up your suspension..
I've got access to a 15ton press, just got to take it easy on it so not to bend the arm.. Rob you were saying cut a bit of angle iron to fit in the gap so the mounts dont push together, do you reckon a bit of pipe would do it as long as the I/D is greater then the O/D of the bushes..

by **geeves** » Mon Jun 22, 2015 3:27 pm

A x member here (he sold his mu bought a surf dropped a lexus in and it hasnt gone right since) tried to do these by putting a socket on one side and a 12mm plate on the other to push it through useing a 14mm fine thread bolt to provide the push. Turned the 12mm plate into a funnel.
Dont know if 15 ton will do it.
As for poly bushes yes they will stiffen those joints that have side flex. I wouldnt use them on your rear srings or any shock but this joint only movres in 1 ark so they would be better than rubber.

by **damo667** » Mon Jun 22, 2015 4:19 pm

Ah yes I think I read about that in another thread.. if the press doesn't work I'll try that.. maybe 15mm plate though

So the failed joint on the steering is a pin that joins the centre track rod to the pitman arm..
Apparently you cant replace just that pin you need to buy a new centre track rod.. $170 from holden

Do you know if thats the only way? other then second hand parts..

The current rubbers are held on with zip tie and wire combo so looks like someones done a rough one before...

by **geeves** » Mon Jun 22, 2015 5:17 pm

The rubbers are normally wired on although some after market ones are zip tied. Also if boots have been replaced zip ties are most likely to have been used. BNT and Repco also sell that centre link but I think its called a drag link in there book. Not much cheaper though.
