For future reference ratchet strap the car to the hoist so it doesn't move while jacking up springs to do up stub axles
Dig the vibe of this car fellas. One idea: if you’re keen to get viewers to give feedback on what might be assembled wrong, be sure to give a well lit panning shot of everything after it’s put back together so the ppl who know these suspension and steering systems have something to inspect on slow-mo. I’ve never worked on one of these, being in Florida, but I’m sure somebody out there can assist if you give them clear angles and lighting. Love the cars, looking forward to seeing your econobox on air-ride back on here someday.
True mate! Sometimes you can look straight at it and say "there's your problem" other times it is only when you step back and take a long look you notice where you stuffed up.
Just don't forget everyone who has ever worked on a car has done it at least once, coin the saying "it happens to the best of us"
Great work, but you really need to use anti-sieze or some copper grease on your threads....it will thank you later
...
Great content guys! It just reminds me of the old days putting Holdens together with mates. All I wanted to do was jump through the screen to help with the work!
I can almost promise you hg disc and hq disc stub axles are identical as i pretty sure they had the same factory part number the only different is the stub axles were swapped over left to right and right to left meaning hq runs the forward caliper like you have and hg caliper is mounted rearward 👍
So good to watch this build, helps me in my build so much. Mal
26:45 I don't know where else it's from, but I know it as a line from the song "Closing Time" by Semisonic from the late 90's. Yes, I am that old.
The rear leaf spring have small spaces so it compresses the rubber evenly, my HG (and its a red one Cam) has two spaces either side, thickness of about 5mm 3/16" as per the original manual. Depending on model and diff this can vary,
You got new hq rotors, why didn't you just get blank rotors and get them drilled to hg??????
Hoppers Stoppers do them
All she needs is some 15" Firestone on rear ,& tunnel Rammed 327.& some fender exit...💯👌
Hey guys, loving the content and thanks for having us at the Factory opening. ✌🏻😊
Aren’t those stub axles upside down boys? That’s why it’s so high instead of lower?
As others have already mentioned, the hq stubs are same part as hktg disk stub just on opposite side.
The rear springs should have spacer plates between the diff mounts and u bolts arent a bad idea as they were known to crack the diff mount.
An easier way to compress the front springs is with some all thread through the shocker mounts with some decent washers.
NB!!! Spacers for the leaf spring brackets
I just paused the video I was positive the fuel tank dropped in the boot, but not 100% sure just thinking the silicone will be a hard clean up
Guys, do you have a aversion or allergy to spring compressors?
No secret word so i guess... Antlers? Mostly just a comment for the algorithm anyway
To me stun axles are upside down if your trying to go lower looking at where you centre point is
What’s the build style of this one?? Same as the hq??
Just put the e85 in the lawnmower, so you didn’t waste it 😂and are you guy going to do the rust in the rear behind the back tyres and the rest of the rust
Great vid as always. When I fit front brakes i put the Inner bearing into the disc, knock the seal in then slide the disc onto the spindle. Good luck for the opening, sorry I won't be able to make it.
Wheely good work guys 🎉
Looks mint
If you want to really improve the steering quality, brace the steering box. Makes a great difference.
To adjust front wheel bearing . Was taught to lock till disc is close to not spinning then back off quarter turn . Old school teaching
Absolutely loving the G content fellas. Being a G owner myself it's great to see the trials and tribulations that go into getting/keeping these ol machines up and running. Keep it up guys 👍
Hk ht hg disc stub axles are the same exact stub axles as Hq, just used on opposite sides. Part numbers are the same. They will not change ride height.
Also the rear spring saddle has spacers to set the squish on the rubber bushes. There shouldn’t be a gap
Wish I had a buck for ever time I said, "It's gotta be the right way" 😊
Question for you, are you going to keep the different stud pattern on the front to the back?
Should there not be U bolts holding the diff to the springs?
Awesome work lads.
All the best for this weekend.
I hope it goes well 🤞👍.
If it's too high in the front, tell Les he needs an LS.
Once the engine goes in and the springs set, the front end will lower
Good to see the hg going back together slowly
Another great video guys.
Kicking goals guys keep it up.
Get work lovinv it
Great content as always 👍
Does look cool as slammed.
How do the shock absorbers get installed in these front ends?
the shocks can be fitted through the bottom of the control arms
Killin it boys.👌
Looking good!
Sweet
Good morning lads, I know spring compressors are a big pain but might be a touch safer. Would Les the owner consider putting in a Holden Astra electric power steering?
One
Hope this weekend is a great sucsess gents all the best the Hacktory looks awesome 👍🏻🍻
