Done Deal. That Tripod pod specific grease is very loose and light counter intuitive to what you'd think should be in there. Hope it works Attachment : IMG_0717.jpeg

Good information. I really appreciate it when someone takes the time to post what the've learned and lets you know where to get what's needed. One my 2021 SR10 and the new 2022 I just got I've had the...

To follow up from my last post, I went ahead and drained some fluid from the GDU cooling circuit, removed the cooler lines and blocked them off in order to remove the right side pod. With the pod off ...

@parsonsj For what it's worth when I was talking to a Radical tech about the repacking process, they emphasized getting grease in the rollers. They had a special tool that they use to do this but I d...

@raider89 Right! If you read the actual procedure (from one of the guides here in the Resource Library), it says nothing about working grease through the rollers. Just wipe everything clean, put new g...

@davidf Seems like the tool can be a real time-saver over my method of working the grease into place via hand. My guess is that the SR10 and SR8 use the same diameter tripods (bigger than the SR3), bu...

@rjbender Rod I am using run time but you make a good point. The manual says "every 10 hours of running" which probably means in gear and rolling. I have heard of more frequent driveshaft failures...

@raider89 - G'day Dan, No - the air line that runs to the back of the car and feeds the solenoid block looks like it comes off the top of the compressors storage receiver (which is where it should be ...

My 2014 RXC Coupe V6 is listed for sale on bringatrailer for anyone who may be interested. Attachment : IMG_0864.PNG Attachment : Radical RXC uphill esses at VIR.JPG

I still have several sets of lightly used Radical tires listed in the parts for sale on this site. New listing for set of wheels plus set of 5-heat-cycle used tires mounted and balanced, just added. ...

Posted by: @clark-darrah You cannot find the Radical recommended grease (Total Lithium EP2 400g) so I used Lucas Oil Red N Tacky which is what my Radical dealer uses. The correct grease is GKN Trip...

Thought I would post my experience having completed the 6 hour service on my SR10. By way of background I'm fairly competent doing basic service stuff on my other cars (engine, trans, diff oil change...
