Hi All,

I recently purchased a Boss Compressor, 100AMp Solenoid and Pressure switch of an Ebay Seller.

I connected it as per the wiring diagram sent with the compressor as per below

• I have heavy duty cable from the Battery Via an 100am fuse to the compressor.
• I have heavy duty cable from the ...

I need some help with my Warn XD9000

Last week it stopped working and all I got was the clicking solenoids.

This weekend I stripped the motor down and it was filled with mud and water.

I gave it a good clean and put it back together exactly how I took it apart.

Now the cable turns so slow, and ...

Nope...Now theres an idea......tell me more?

I have lost my wheels twice in the last 3 months.

First time was the front Left and the second time rear left.

The first time I was doing 90km on the Gt western highway and the 2nd time was the other week on the M4 heading down the mountian into Penrith.

On both occasiosns the nuts were tight ...

On the subject of winches mine also stop last Sunday whilst whinching my patrol up a hill and and now all I get is click click when I try to winch.

I presume this will be the solinoids???

All the wiring is correct and the motor was running fine until it cut out.

If so how do I determine which one ...

Yeah I did.

I came apart just enough to get the stud in without pulling it all the way off.

There was just enough room.

Thanks again

Thanks Guys,

It took 40mins and cost $12.00 (Wheel Stud).

You saved me a trip to the garage.

Thanks Again

Paul

Thanks,

The back looks easy but these are on the front and it look like there is not enough room to remove them without taking the hub to bits?

I gather you just did the back? Do you know how easy or hard it is to do the front?

I broke a wheel stud off the front of my 99 GU on the weekend and I would like to know how easy it is to fix.

I have a basic mechanical knowledge but I have never started to take apart the front hub area on my Patrol so I am not sure what I will encounter.

Can it be done easily?

If so how much ...

I have two at the Moment.

Trying to flog the diesel which is why I have the spare battery Tray whcih does not fit the TB45

The Mother in law gave me her TB45 at a good price so the diesel goes.

Its tight getting this dual battery into the TB45 compared to the diesel

Might have to bend some pipes ...

I have just put my old Dual Battery Tray from my 4.2d GU on ebay.

Its goes up at 7pm Tonight.

If you want it I can cancel the auction.

Its off a 1998 GU and it bolts straight into exsisting holes.

PM me if your interested.

$80.00

Thanks Mate.

I shall now go outside and have a play and try too make it fit

Thanks again

Thanks,

People do fit them in the engine bay and I have just sold my Diesel Patrol and fitting a dual in the engine bay was a breeze...Loads of room.

Not much room though with these Petrols

I would only want to put it inside the cargo area as a very last resort...I have heard horror stories about ...

I have had a good search and I cant seem to find Pictures of how people have fitted thier Dual Batterys in a GU Patrol 4.5l Petrol.

I know it goes on the air filter side but before I start pulling things out to get the battery tray in can someone please send me a photo of what it looks like fitted ...

I painted a scetion of the floor on my GU with the stuff.

2 weeks later a bottle of suntan lotion leaked onto the floor and got onto the Kill Rust between the edge of the floor carpet and the Sill.

When I lifted the carpets to clean it up The Kill Rust just peeled off and went all soft.

I had to ...

I am running 6mm at the moment which I am told should be enough

I am going to check all my connections on Tuesday and see if thats the problem.

I have only recently fitted an anderson plug on the fridge so it might be the connection there.

Thanks for your help

I have a waeco fridge that when my dual battery drops below 12V the compressor will not fire up.

I can hear the compressor trying to fire and the volt meter needle goes down to 8v and then jumps back up to 11.5 and it tries to draw enough power to start up..

What is the normal voltage required to ...

I know its not ebay but there is some resonable stuff on here

http://www.graysonline.com.au/sale.asp?SALE_ID=50513

Its an Opposite Lock Store that went under.

The prices look good but I bet some idiots push the prices over retail towards the end.

Worth a look though

Thank sfor all your help

The main battery it is then

Thanks again

Hi,

I have a had a good search and cant find the answer to this question so just in case I have missed it I am sorry if someone has asked this before.

I am fitting a winch and I was going to run it onto the main battery but a mate tells me to run it off my dual battery.

Which is the best ...

Afternoon,

I am currently fitting some OME rear coils to my GU.

We I got them out i noticed one coil had "A" marked on them and one "B".

A rock must have hit the bottom of my Radiator today down on the dunes in Cronulla.

The hole is to big to repair.

Has anyone got any ideas where to go to buy a rad for a 1998 4.2D GU.

We are off on a trip next weekend so I know I will have to buy a new one but not sure where to start as I dont ...

Morning All,

I have very basic Mechanical Knowledge so please bear with me.

Recently when going over bumps on the road I have been getting a load rattle from the hub area in the rear of my GU and when I press the brakes a clicking sound.

I removed my back wheel today and I grabed the brake disc ...

Thanks Guys

Hi,
