Hey guys,
I'm 13 and I picked up this LJ from our local mechanic. He originally built it for his kids to learn to drive in but they moved up to alice and it has sat ever since. It then came into my possession and I put a 2 inch lift on i and replaced the brakes. also We put the newer f10a in it and it goes really good off road. The only problem is that because the diff is right under the engine when the suspension compresses the diff smashes up against the sump and now it's bent in about 3 or 4 inches and the crankshaft is grinding on it making an annoying ticking sound. Any suggestions on how to stop this happening again
Cheers, Timothy Button :D :D
