Auto conversion

Does anybody know if the 4.8 litre 5 speed auto will bolt in behind the TD42T in an early GU and if much work is involved.

Or has anybody fitted other auto's behind the TD42T other than a GQ 4 speed auto.

have you considered just trimming out wheel arches/guards and fitting 35 inch tyre's followed by lockers, front an rear (or just one locker).

I current run similar setup to you just with a front lockrite locker and I am driving over up or though plenty of obstacles.

I believe the 6 pin is the 24V switch as mine is 12V and its a seven pin. use a multi meter to trace the cuircuit operation, but I believe the 24V switches had only one powe...

the glow plug module has it own temp sender in the motor (i think its in the lower termistat housing) test it with a multimeter as it may be faulty. some glow plug modules break down internally and just have to be thrown away.
