That my upper steering u-joint is going to break.

I know that the joint slipping out of the steering shaft is a major issue, but the thread didn't mention fixes. What have you guys done to fix this? I put a 3/32 split pin through the very bottom half of it and it works fine (400 miles +), but the joint flexes as you spin the steering wheel (both before and after the split pin was installed).

Also, some have mentioned a 4x4 manual conversion from the original electric. Anyone have any pics?

I use my T2 for long distances and would hate to have things break down far from life...

Is the steering joint flexing or is it loose? They are typically loose when new. To fix the joint to shaft mount, I made 2 halves that clamp tight around the shaft. This is welded to the original cut off joint. In my case, I replaced the entire upper and lower joints with a good ones I bought off of ebay. One of the halves has two 1/4" set screws in it which tighten down into shallow holes in the steering shaft. Secure and no slop.

It's tight, but I can still see it flex. Were the ones oyu bought on ebay made for the Joyner? If not, how did you size them? Or did you have to modify purchased units?

I bought a used steering shaft with joints for a 91 Tauris 3.0 and adapted it to my needs. Cost me $35 with shipping.

      Hi
      I have a 2022 hisun sector eps 550. 30amp fuse is blown for eps. Checked the motor and it’s fine. Opened up the controller and found a bad diode. Dealer wanted 500$ for the controller. Just posting this in case it helps someone. I couldn’t read numbers from the old one so just took a guess and replaced it with a 100v 3amp diode.

      2007 Hisun HS700  will not crank.  Replace the ignition switch. Same thing.  Replaced solenoid by the battery same thing. Can jump it and it starts good across the solenoid posts. Ran a jumper wire from switch to solenoid. Nothing 
       
      can anyone suggest something else.

      I own a 2017 Challenger 750 and had the key way snap at the flywheel. It was removed and cleaned up and then the  flywheel was put back on with a new keyway. It snapped a second time so the flywheel and keyway both were replaced. They both seem to fit nice and tight. Put it all back together and it snapped again. I have no idea why it is doing this.

      When we first heard the noise, we immediately stopped driving it...at first we thought it might be a linkage issue, but after further inspection looks like the sound/jolting is coming from the rear diff. Took a video below...
      Anyone know what is creating the diff to skip/jump like this? We drained the diff oil and didn't look terrible, no metal.
      Other info that may be useful:
      1400 miles on it
      Recently tightened the E brake
      P.s. never posted on this forum before, let me know if the video does not work
