The change in length should come from the CV joint behind the center bearing. They can plunge in and out about 20mm

Listening to Ross Lyons interview on SEN, he credited Richmond's pressure and defensive structure, and he also said last weeks Adelaide game had no effect on them

Anything up to VS were easy, but the VX is pretty tough to fix at home. You need to grab the shaft by the tripod yokes at each end and pull it apart with brute force. I've done them with a 15Tonne 2 Way Hydraulic press bench and some come apart easy, but others take a bit of persuasion. If you...

That's not even a vaguely similar situation. Human Beings are all the same species, we evolved on this earth and share a very recent common ancestor. Since the earliest origins Homo Sapiens have migrated to any new areas where we can carve out a Niche to better our survival. Who's to say that...

It will take quite some time before they can stand on their own two feet. There is some incredible wealth in Indonesia, but many millions of people living in extreme poverty too. One of my first memories of Jakarta was looking at a bunch of people sleeping on sheets of cardboard beside a railway...

I'm in Indonesia at the moment and my passport is 1000ks away from me whilst I've got a KITTAS application pending.... Very very nervous times for a lot of people up here. Luckily I got my entrance visa approved over a month ago... I've heard from a few expats that they've stopped approving...

The limo driver I use told me he knows guys who have got 6-700k from the VE's and they're still going when they update. But others have run into problems earlier. Just because yours was dead at 550k doesn't mean that's how long to expect for every car and engine. What where the unrepairable...

I want to remove my strips but I'm not sure how to get them off without ruining the paint work, and I'm not keen to try in case it all turns to Shyte and looks terrible. If you manage to remove them cleanly let me know how you do it!

Just moved to Indonesia so my choice of beer now is usually between Bintang and Anker. Bintang is fairly terrible but Anker is not too bad. I lashed out and spent 45 Aussie dollars on a case of Heineken the other week just so I could have something decent. It tasted suspiciously like Bintang...

In the past decades the road toll has definitely dropped as cars have become safer and the roads better (and cars more powerful!). There's no question that all this technology makes the roads safer, but I think if these cheapie Chinese cars allows a someone to have an affordable upgrade from...

If I were you I'd decide on a budget and work out finance/loans before even looking at any car. Otherwise you're half a chance to get emotionally attached to a car and sign up for whatever horrid finance deal the dealer's getting paid commission to flog off to people
