  1. Raise the front end and grab the anti-roll bar near where the drop link connects to it and try pulling down on it If it's stiff it is fine if not the drop links need replacing
  2. Try the wheel rocking that will tell you if it is a upper/lower Ball joint or the wheel bearing
  3. Failing that lift the said side off the floor with a Jack and put your hands at either side of the shell and rock it from side to side without turning it do the same with your hands at the top and bottom rocking back and forth and see if the wheel has any play in it
  4. Have a look at the top mount on the suspension that would be a good place to start
  5. The instructions that came with the thermostat is the top let wiring diagram above and some other text but nothing about keeping it running. And if you wouldn't bother i will leave it as is also i wouldn't have gone to electric fans if the original viscous one hadn't been shredded when my crank pulley snapped and destroyed it Thanks for your help though, it's appreciated and i have learnt a couple of things in the process, so that's a bonus
  6. could the 12V live on the thermostat be for keeping the fans running when the engine switched off after a long run for further cooling. And would the supra benefit from the fans still running after engine switch off (like a Jag s-type) or would that be pointless?
  7. The 12 V live i used is the 30A fuse in the fusebox for the original fan setup However it keeps running the fans when the engine is off no matter the temperature What i would like to have is this setup but the fans turn off with the engine if it is below the temp specified and to keep running with the engine off if it is higher Any help is appreciated Thanks is advance
  8. I've had these installed just over a year now and decided to relocate the fuse box and battery so have redone the wiring for these twin fans Now originally i had the live in the diagram below just inserted to the live in the stock fan connector Had no problems After the rewire (could have possibly done this wrong, if i have it's the only thing Inc. the wipers lol). The diagram below shows the instructions from the fan controller i bought and is for 1 fan only not twin fans There is a diagram of my current setup and an alternative My question is i know it is better to have one relay per fan incase one blows the other should keep running, have i done this correctly
  9. Ah, it does come in handy on frosty mornings lol I can help if you need it but it was a while ago
  10. Are you combing them both so you have de-misting and folding mirrors
  11. Is there the same amount of pins in the facelift one or more its a bit hard to tell from the picture
  12. Ah, was your old mirrors de-misting ones?
  13. How much bigger is the plug as mine went through like a treat
