Guest Daks Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 what bits can i do to a fortrack to make it a better bus on the land ... and in gereral any tips thanks check around the floor pans, bulk head, rear arches and around all the chasis for signs of rot as the bodies rust off these, also make sure there is no play in your steering box or ball joints (makes it ride like shit), if you wanna be really really smart take the engine out scrap the shell and stick the engine in a disco, as the engine on a fourtrack will pull a house down its the body thats shite lol will last ou forever then atb..daks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But i agree with you about the engine Quote Link to post Share on other sites

samearl14 11 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 It sounds like the auto hubs could be seized up. Therefore not engaging the front wheels when put in four wheel drive. Or like you say it could be an electrical problem in the the transfer box. I took the electric operated gearbox and transfer box out of my fourtrak and put one in that had manual 4wd. I also put manual hubs on. Much more reliable in my oppinion. ATB Sam Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just want to know a little about what im talking about so i dont get my pants pulled down!! Cheers Kris you can check to see if it is the auto locking hub but i cant remember how at the minute!!!! its been ages since i have touched a fourtrack!! i think you lift the front end off the ground stick it in 4 wheel drive or try too! then look at the drive shafts which should rotate....or is it you lift the front end and turn them by hand?? honestly i cannot remember? i will have a think and get back to you later on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
