Last Minute Prep For Offroad Games 2024

After getting back from the Salt Lake Offroad Expo I drove the Scrambler home and it was not running good. We really need a vehicle with extra seats for the Offroad Games, so we had to hurry to either find a backup or fix the issue. We dug out Lilli's jeep to see if we could swap in the spare transmission I have for it, but that didn't work. So we tore into the motor and found a bad lifter, which probably flattened a lobe on the camshaft, and a bent push rod. Basically we will be rebuilding the engine soon. But until then we disabled that cylinder and got it back together. Then new axleshafts in the buggy and a final seat adjustment. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

Rory: "Throttle fixes everything; If it doesn't fix the problem it'll end the suspense." That is literally the most prophetic thing that I have ever heard you say my friend. Keep it up!!!

@BuilderofRat 2 ай бұрын

It would not be difficult for Rory to MAKE a U-Joint press, and with as many U-Joints as you guys change it would pay for its self in short order. I had a very rusted in U-Joint that I, (a mechanic) took to the driveline shop for them to change rather than beat the fire out of my yokes. I would build one my self, but I change a U-Joint once every 4 years or more, and it just easier to take it to town.

@tomhubbard353 2 ай бұрын

Presses bend ears like NOW! Hammer them in and your good to go. I have a press and more often go to a hammer for U Joints, not always buttttt. PLUS there are no presses out on the trail so being good at it is a perk.

@BuilderofRat 2 ай бұрын

@@tomhubbard353 I can understand that, I have beat them in and out many times, but, how many times have you had a needle bearing fall out and could not get the snap ring in, and then had to beat it all apart to put the needle back in place in the cap? I have had that happen way more than once. I have also screwed up the cap. I have had to beat the yoke to get the joint to work freely too. A real U-Joint press will never distort the yoke. I have had to resort to cutting the cross in half in the field, and heat the yoke a bit to get a severely rusted joint replaced. I was a heavy equipment mechanic for 45 years, so I have done plenty of nasty U-Joints, but I prefer to take the real nasty ones to pros.

Love Lilly's Jeep. Bent push rods are usually an indication of over-rev, valve float, valve hitting piston. Before the days of rev-limiters being built into engine control computers, this was a common problem.

Reminds me of a 400 I just built. It had a wiped lobe on the exhaust and a bent push rod on the intake of the same cylinder. Another seven cylinder. It drove into our shop like that wanting a "tune-up" to make it run better. We rebuilt the engine the more we took apart, the more wrong we found.
