Forum: AWD Magna / Verada

Hi All, My wife has decided that after 5 years she wants a change. What do you think would be a fair price to ask for a 2004 TL VR AWD, 103,000K, daintree green, un-marked perfect interior, great mechanically, only a couple of stone chips on the leading edge of the bonnet and a slight parking...

What brand tow bars do Folks have? Anyone towing a 'van? I have twin rear muffs (1 ea side), how does the tow bar mount to the chassis? Trying to keep the twins AND get a t-bar that fits.

hey im just wondering on my 03 tj awd what would be needed to return the brakes back to single piston? apart from the caliper and rotor is there nothing else required to put a tf magnas brakes on to the tj awd?

G'day all, Looking at fitting some 18x8 wheels to my TL AWD VRX. Just wondering what offset others are using with their aftermarket wheels. I was looking at some wheels with a +35 offset but have been told by that the rims will sit outside the wheel arch. For the record I'm running the Ralliart...

it is as basic as that. between 80 and 85-90kmh smallest vibration more noise, then goes away. car was given a slight(hard) time as a sweep car for a vrc round. the way i will tackle this is that i will take onboard all your suggestions and write outcome to eliminate them as they come...

Hi everyone. My first post on the AussieMagna forums! We are in Wollongong NSW and have owned (wife has owned) a TJ AWD since 2004. My wife's car was just recently killed by a guy who decided to turn against a red arrow. Sad, because it was a brilliant car :( Both her and our daughter ended...

hey all, im a bit new here so i figure i should tell you all a bit about myself first. currently working for defence, living in wagga wagga. car history - recently bought my third magna. first was a '94 se which met an unfortunate end i am sad to say, second was a '96 te which i still have but will...

I recently had the car serviced and the Mitsi dealer told me that the near side inner CV boot was torn and that l needed replace the boot including CV. Should l do this as insurance or just change the boot ? It must have only torn recently as there is still heaps of grease in the boot. Thanks for...

Had a bit of clanking from the rear - on inspection found that the swaybar had rotated so that the link rods where hanging down with the swaybar ends at the bottom rather than above the frame mount. While under the car noticed that near the left and right D-bush mounts for the swaybar the...

I'm trying to get a power steering rack from one the above models to install into my KJ2 AWD. I've got a FWD power steering rack from a TL but the mounting holes don't match.

Hi all. I recently came across a supercharger from a V6 dunnydore, and was thinking about fitting it to the Magna. My dilemma is, the engine is starting to consume oil and needs some kind of repair, PCV - valve guides or even rings, not sure yet. Any help on what parts l should use for either...

Hey guys, Trying to work out different ride height options, I've seen a couple of TL/KL AWD's with King Lows, can someone with a TL or KL AWD on King SP's possibly post a photo or two of the ride height? Trying to work out a nice balance between looks and performance atm. If we could keep...

OK- so I know so many people are after that nice lowered suspension look for the Magna- but from a day to day driveability perspective, particularly having to transport kids to and from school and occasionally tow the boat to and from the ramp a standard ride height can be an advantage- so the...

just wondering if ne one has a picture of there front cv shafts from an awd to see if i can use them for my eng conversion?? if they look right i will order in some

Anyone can help me on this one? Are the power steering rack and pump the same for both AWD and FWD? Or are they different? :ninja:

I was reading through another topic today and made me wonder since there is a larger pad area and thicker disks, are the 380 brakes (fronts at least) a worthwhile upgrade for the AWD. And is it economical or is there a better option? I searched for about 2 hours looking for this in the...
