Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hey johnobob1984, Thanks a lot for the tip, I thought that just by using this machine I would get everything cleaned. Thanks a lot for the advice !! that machine will flush the system remove dirt from the block and lose scale and old coolant if your radiator is blocked in the tubes it won't clean ...

G Day, I know there're a lot of threads that talk about cooling system flushing for the TD42. But I haven't heard nothing about this cooling system flushing machines. Do you guys think this machine will do a good flushing job and do you think it will take away all the cooling system ( radiator ...

Thanks a lot for all the tips guys, I will extend those breath lines....

So you guys think that by just using this dif breathers the water wouldn't come in?

G Day, Do you guys know if there's a way or method that prevents water to be getting into the transfer case, shift case and difs? (From a 1990 shorty TD42) I know that a normal retainer is build to not let the oil out, but I don't know if there is some oil retainer that can be capable to stop water ...

Yes I think that it's the option that I'm going to take....

Thanks for all the help guys.....

YEP! They pretty much ran that on all landcruisers up until 2005! Correct. This one's off a petrol 80 and does fit, just. You will need to move the overflow bottle back towards the firewall. It has 3" in and 3 1/2" outlet (made an adaptor back down to 3" to fit the turbo inlet). [img][img]http ...

Excellent guys thanks a lot for the tip, I will try to get this Hilux air box.

And something else, bj on roids you said that early hilux air boxes were made from plastic, if I get one of those plastic ones, it will have the same dimensions and inlet / oulet size of the metal one?

Hey SIM79,

That's exactly the problem, cause here we don't have a lot of patrols and I can't get a GU air box, if I want to get one, I will have to get it from Nissan and I will have to pay 300 Aust dollars for it

Gday, Do you guys think this Isuzu Bighorn air box will flow enough air for a TD42 with an after market turbo? This Isuzu air box has 20cm of diameter and 20cm + oulet 5cm of length. I have other option and it's a 1KZ air box, but it seems to be very small... Here are some pics of them: Bighorn Air ...

So guys based on your experience and taking in count this example of engine failure, you think is not safe to turbo a TD42 with near 350K??? As figjam said, it depends on how the engine is looked after to how long it will last. I have a friend with a 91 model that has had a turbo on it since 5 ...

I too am trying to find out, but I now believe I have a K27. Hotside a/r is 1.17. So would be too big.

PM sent m8....

Has anyone tried using the K26 turbo on their patrol? What did you think? Hi monkeycritter, I was trying to find some time ago what KKK turbo model will work fine on the TD42, but apparently there are no turbo maps for them in order to verify what turbo model will apply, how did you find out that ...

Just WOW !!! Congrats heathgu.....

Anyone !!!! Common guys give me some advise on this please !!!

G Day, I have this issue since some months ago. The steering wheel vibrates in some situations like in the mornings when I turn my car on, the wheel shakes a little bit and it produces a very annoying sound inside the cab and actually you can feel the drive wheel shacking, and other situation that ...

Somebody told me that I will have some issues with the GU gear box, cause the transfer case lever is different at the GQ one, so it's not going to be easy to fit it into my GQ shorty, do you guys know something about it?

diesels run an alt with a vacume pump on the back of the alt. for brakes and clutch.

just saying, make sure the original one comes with the engine as they can be expensive.

cheers smitty

Of course alternator , thanks hammey !!!

i'm assuming you have a TB42 now ...


glow plug relay so you can glow the glow plugs on the TD42

and you'll also need the alt with oil pump

Thanks a lot Hoonz, now is clear !!!!

Yes I remember you Mario, well I haven't bought the engine yet.

you'll need a diesel spec fuel filter and a glow plug relay and exhaust system and do the clutch before you put it all in What you mean about a diesel spec fuel filter is the original 42TD fuel filter right? And what's the plug relay? rip the vacume canister and stuff off the fire wall of the car ...

G Day, I'm about to get a 42TD or TD42T engine, well is the turboed one from factory with its gear box as well. So I'm wondering if some mods are required in order to install it into my GQ shorty. I know that with the engine it self there myth be no drama, but I'm not sure about the gear box. So any ...

Few of the earlier Y60 Patrols came out with inline fuel pumps here in NZ, but not many make it to a wrecker, they just get driven into the ground. Very easy to modify the inline for decent HP. Hi GR TROL, You said that it's very easy to modify the inline pump to get some decent HP, what kind of ...

Well, my car is 1990 GQ Shorty, and this in line pump it's an original gear, this pump is a Diesel KIKI In Line Pump, if you Google it you can get some info about it. Here at Costa Rica it's not an easy thing to get a GQ shorty and even harder to get this kind of pump. The only thing I know it's ...

Hi Mousie,

They exist cause my shorty has one...Why do you want one, what plans do you have?

Hey Mario, Thanks a lot for your offer, and yes the taxes here in Costa Rica are so high. Right now is little bit difficult cause I'm out of money, so in case I can save some I would let you know, but thanks a lot anyway..... And to let you know something else, there some guys here in Costa Rica ...

Si no te molesta decirme, cuanto te costo en Miami y sabes de casualidad cuanto cuesta en panama? Es que aqui son demasiado caros....

Saludos compadre,

Esa patrol esta demasiado bestial, te felicito hermano, has hecho un gran trabajo......
