Solved: P38 Range Rover rear axle 'clunk'
มุมมอง 1K2 ปีที่แล้ว
How to solve a 'clunk' noise on P38 Land Rover Range Rover rear axle. The noise can happen when changing from forward to reverse or back again with steering lock on, or when stressing the suspension when cross-axled, etc. It's easy enough to check for, just try shaking the lower end of the shock side to side. If it moves/clunks, then replace the two 'washers' shown in the video with thicker one...

What crap
Maybe try it before you comment. Years later, these tyres are still holding air fine.
👍
Don’t through those away because the English government will tax the hell out you when u go to buy a new tire
That's a whole lot of dumb. Step one should be to find the leak before breaking the bead, it might just need a patch to be fixed properly.
Sooo, you did see it had come off the bead before it was looked at? Also, in 95% of tyre problems with these mower etc tyres, the issue is leaks at the bead/rim, or in the sidewall - patches are not an option.
Good vid thanks being a ranger rover owner all info good info . Why is it so clean ?
Thanks. Do you mean why is inside the engine, so clean? I guess regular oil and filter changes.
I mean under your range rover it looks well looked after .
@@lloydholland6475 We don't use road salt over here, so minimal underbody corrosion.
Those rims are not really good for tubeless tires. You often get a new snowblower or lawn mower that comes with leaking tires because of that. They need a tube!
Cómo le instalo nuevamente el sensor sobre ese disco? Alguien sabrá?
That 7:36 guy is a dum ass😊
Remember to change the tire oil once a year and don’t forget to top up the blinker fluid!
This mower already has long-life blinker fluid - they'll be fine for another couple of years.
@@RangieNZI’m happy to see that you have a good sense of humor! I enjoyed the video! Cheers!
Instead of putting the goop on the rim to get it to work, just spray a little bit of starting fluid and stand back and toss a match Or a little piece of paper on fire and you seal & inflate the tire in one step😂
Whilst that can inflate/seat a bead quickly, the problem is normally old/dry/cracked rubber, that won't seal against the rim, or is porous and allows air through the sidewall. You need some liquid/tacky sealers, in order for it not to leak.
Fill them with spray foam.. end of story...
Why cant you use tire slime since the tire is dry rot, and porous??
You can. Here, a 16floz (2 cup) bottle of Slime, costs $45. Wheras 2-3cups of waste oil is rather less.
They make a product called BEAD SEALER. It works.
That's probably the stuff, that tyre shops brush on the bead when installing them. I just used the items/chemicals that I've had on hand and I know to work.
Buy a compressor & use your belt & forget the oil!
Did you see the bubbles leaking through the sidewall? You need some form of sealant inside (I'm not a fan of tubes), to stop the air leaking out the sides..
Go to your motorcycle shop bicycle shop and ask him for a set of:" tire spoons"! One there's smooth and they won't make you get five screwdrivers on a pry bar They're designed to take off that room without damaging it and the tire: If it works with 120 mph motorcycle tires should work with your lawn mower! I'm just curious Why didn't you pump it up first and put it in a buck of water and see if it's a rim league entire leak or whatever If it's a rim leak clean the rims polished the rims in your back in business It was entire leak fix the tire and then the only thing I envy is that little jack and the drill to raise it up I got to pick it up with my l4 L5L6 L7 s1 vertebrae screaming to my brain to put it down!!! I know The spoons are only for changing the tires and a screwdriver's multi-purpose but it does the job better and your neighbor will appreciate you!
Three cups of oil for both, the small and large tires ?
You can try 2 on a small tyre, if it still goes down put another in. The soap spray is your friend - locate where it's leaking and sort those areas. The non-hardening sealant works really well on the beads.
Oil supposedly ruins tire rubber ?
Oil softens rubber, which is exactly what you want on tyres that have gone super-hard and no longer seal.
Aviation form a gasket is a bit much…
Not really. It's fairly cheap, i already had it (it's used on cars too) and most importantly, it doesn't go hard but istead remains tacky, which is exactly what you want.
If that was me filling the funnel with used oil, about two cups of oil would be on the garage floor in no time.
Well you just had yourself a freaking goat rodeo going on right there.
Guys fit tubes. Look up Go kart tire supplies, u can get any size imaginable and for half what mower parts cost.
When taking off a tire - allways start and finish at the valve!
Such a rookie. You really need to learn from someone that knows how to do, before trying to teach others how to do it.
I can just hear ya cursing. I could tell you how to do it more easier, I was a tire tech. Luckily, the tires on a lawnmowers don't have steel belts they are bias. Do that to a car tire and your guaranteed problems
Just hit the local box store and get some GREEN SLIME...in the auto section, unscrew the valve core, pump the tire will plenty of the green stuff and then blow the tire back up. I will seal the tire and cracks and lasts for years. No need to take the tire off...and you can run the tire down to bare threads.
Oil can eat rubber . OH MY !
Yeah and then when the tread is gone and you have to change it WHAT A MESS BECAUSE OF ALL THE OIL INSIDE. I just used Fix a Flat in mine works great. Lol Or i heard you can use Slime.
Take a moment to think about what your Slime/ Fix a flat wheel/tyre will look like then - same situation. For the oil, a lot of it soaks into the rubber softening it, so not much left - also it just wipes off. The Slime/ Fix a flat stuff is like a glue - cleaning that off is a nightmare - tyre shops near me, either won't work on rims, or they charge you a pile more for cleaning, if you've used Slime/ Fix a flat... YMMV.
valve side out first in last!! grease around the rim .. two large drivers screws small vice grips locked on rim so no. chasing tire around the rim on replacing tire on rim..
WOW That is what I call OVER DOING IT!!!
It's really not. Even the commercially available stuff says more than two cups for that larger tyre. You need a fair amount to get a thin coating everywhere.
The trick is not to lift the mower up until you have loosened the tire first, that way the tire wont turn. In my case I just tube them and forget leaks.
Normallly, yes. However, both beads were off and the tyre was spinning on the rim, so it wouldn't have worked here. I have a powerful impact gun, but rarely use it, as it normally just ends up damaging the heads on the nuts/bolts.
Don’t use petroleum based oil, as I found out, many 👨 years ago. I was trying to re-mount the beads of my 3 wheeler tires 🛞, onto the rims, after installing inner tubes. Although I didn’t notice right away, the oil (or grease), will start to turn the tire 🛞 beads into a bubble 🫧 gum like 👍 consistency. It didn’t cause me a problem, in part, because by the time summer approached, I bought, and installed brand new tires 🛞. Your friend, Jeff.
I've never heard of oil as a sealer
Thank you for being soft spoken. Nice to listen to ppl who don't have to wow the audience with 20 minutes of "look at me" and 2 minutes of mediocre lessons....

Hay now, im gonna have to do that for my toyota jack thats 30 years old thats nifty with the drill motor.
Harbor freight has a lawnmower adapter for their manual tire changer. And there are tubes for those tires.
I bought tubes for $10 a piece at Harbor Freight for all four tires. Three years now and no flats.
How offten do you have to change your tire oil? Every 3,000 mow's?
Every 300 engine-hours is easier to remember. :)
That's a lot of work! I have a hand truck with both tires (tyres) flat and won't hold air for long. There must be an easier way! Maybe, gel filled tires or foam filled or something else?... I have a pressure washer with same problem...Looking for solutions.
Tireject sealant works good
First, get rid of the screw drivers , get good tire irons. Don’t use oil, it eats the rubber and you could be spreading three cups of oil across your yard. Just buy a tube, if the side walls are leaking, they don’t have much life left. In the off-season block up the tractor to get the weight of the tires. If they go flat it won’t crease and damage the side wall.
I've used Slime for both front tires that were constantly leaking down. Works great and not necessary to dismount the tire and do all the other things.
If you leave the leaks too long, the bead comes off and you end up with water/ soil/ debris inside the tyre - that's when you have to remove them in order to clean the insides. As long as the tyre is still on the bead, then slime is an ok option - it's way more expensive than waste oil though.
And make sure you change the valve stem while you have it apart!
Hilarious 😂
we got green slime on this side of the pond .....good temorary fix [ 1 season ]
why not put a tube much easier and done ??
Is this some kind of a tire joke?LOL.
All the slow leaks I've ever had on lawn tractors and pull behind equipment were cause by tires getting old and leaking through the sidewalls. The only good, permanent fix is to install a tube.
Months later, and these tyres are all still at the same pressure - sealing the cracks (sidewall & bead) is the key.
@@RangieNZ Let me know how they're doing after five years. My lawn tractor hasn't needed air in that time after tubes installed.
Clamp vise-grip pliers to the rim so you don't have to keep chasing the bead sliding off, (save redoing and put an inner-tube inside the tire)
Would be better if we could hear you.
You have got to be kidding me!!!!!!!!! Why go through all the trouble doing this. Also what do you do when you want to get rid of the wheel later on just throw it into the dump??? (Not very smart!). You would be better of just adding a can of flat fix to the tire and rim or put some Slime tire sealant in it and be done with it...........
Fix what you have with what you've got. The tyre is still removable, it just doesn't leak, the oil just wipes out should you want to dispose of it. You should try that fix-a-flat or slime stuff - it leaves a terrible mess on everything - most tyre shops won't go near a rim that has had it installed - it's also REALLY expensive, wheras waste oil is free. There isn't a single downside - you should try it...
