i don't have EAS but my general rule is, use it or loose it . most things don't wear out they age and deteriorate especially rubber components

dose the wobble appear after you hit a bump? (wheel shimming) your pistons would be the problem more than the pins . pins center the caliper, the pistons move in and out to give the disc clearance. a dragging brake would only pull on the steering wheel not cause a wobble . is it slight or violent wobble.

yes i did , they have bosch ones only on the web site , i have not rang them but i will do .i do have a maf on loan at present , thanks for the offer David. i was going to buy a cheap chinese one but i think il go second hand if i can find one

yes thursday my time (AEDT)we have had this argument and i lost . your wednesday is our thursday, thats thursday at 6.30am ish, just before your bed time :)

i could do thursday if any interest

whats it for , the axle nut?
if you are going to use a bar, it doesn't matter , it dose look meaty enough thou.

ok i am looking for another maf not an easy find at moment will keep looking, if anyone comes across one please let me know thanks.

don't use basic 12 sided sockets on impact drivers you will damage or split them, impact sockets are made of different stuff.
if the socket they sent you is black cr v and thicker than usual it might be ok , all my impact sockets are 6 sided from memory and a lot heavier than a standard socket.

welcome ;)

i used a small screw driver , the screws are reasonably loose, to put them back i taped them to the screw driver.

is that you fitting the grill???

i think i have fixed the camera , apparently you have to initiate the software for it to work , it's not plug and play . i did try and find the software but i didnt know what it was under or what it was called but i did find it and i think it now works
so if anyone is interested in another face chat in the future , fingers crossed .

congrats
i also have older children but when we did have kids we had a classic rover and the problem with car seats is the shape of the back seat , you will have to go and try all the seats and see which one fits best against the rear seat and the belts ( il have a bet that it's the dearest one?) the rear mount for the seat is on the roof
PS after they grew out off the captual we could not find a suitable seat so we had to use a foam booster seat ,(illegal now) with a strap that moulded the seat belt so it didn't cut into their little necks . that my 2 cents worth.

have borrowed a maf from a friend , all is working ok now so it is definitely the maf .

remove the instrument panel and remove the blend motors, top one is the distribution motor , operates 3 flaps inside the box , the other operate the air temp, one flap. try and move the big white wheel , it should move freely if it doesn't it's a dash out IMHO. go straight to the real issue, it takes about 30 minutes or so, the little 7.2v motors will struggle to move if the flaps in the box are tight. it's a plastic box that shrinks over time and the flaps go tight , it's a shame only the air box dose that???
don't bother with all the silly tricks they are only temporary and a waste of time
PS if you need to remove the dash don't forget the fans.

ok now it's later , time to report . have tested the maf several times and have different readings . first readings were very erratic jumping from 1.5v to around 3 to 4v just idling , smocked me out of the carport in 20 seconds , end of that test . tried again to day and the reading was a lot more stable siting around 1.5 v to 1.65v but would not alter , other than the slight fluctuation it would not move ,. didn't smoke me out this time so i was able to be more pacific with the readings, so i am looking for a new MAF . have looked on line and the price varies from $120 to $300 but they look the same brand just a different supplier , is there any recommendations when purchasing a new MAF or are they all the same anyway.
yes it's a gems

could be lots of things but i doubt it's the radius arms , when the bushing goes soft they are generally steering issues , the feeling of drifting around corners having to correct steering in corners . is detectable by simply kicking the front wheels from back to front or front to back , they will move more than they should . having said that that doesn't mean its not them as they may be worn beyond the soft rubber stage, most likely a worn ball joint

my experience with bearings in these cars are the sooner you replace them the easier it is to do, if left to fail completely it will require a good size press to remove if you do it now so to speak you could do it with a small press ( i done mine with a 6 ton press)
no you can not re grease them, as they are sealed and the seals are basically destroyed when removed
as the ad says "just do it"

just a little FYI for those thinking that a race cam or some other cam will be better than than one you have as standard, just remember that the ecu is not tuned to run a different cam and mapping is done with the replacement off the chips in these not a laptop (gems not sure about the bosch) . also that your heads may need some work to make the benefits of the cam work properly , then it's the exhaust and manifolds that may require replacing as well , there isn't much point putting in more fuel and air if you can't get it out .
when building a race motor it starts with the crank grinding , different surfaces for different purposes. just that in itself should say something, you can't just replace parts and expect them to work properly if you don't do the other bits to go with it . in most cases when people replace their cam only, do not admit that its not running right , it has a dead spot or it runs rough in a certain area of the rev range or uses more fuel for no real gain.
do your homework before going down that rabbit hole, think conservative .

i done my head lining a while ago , i pushed pins in the saggy spots just to stop the foam from getting everywhere and rubbed the soft foam of with a pot scrubbing brush .
when glueing the fabric on the apolstorer (family relative) stated that they use water based glues now as the solvent base glues attack the foam and they sag after a while? , will let you know if it's any different in about ten years or so, all good so far.
