I'm not to familiar with the 2h but easy way is with the head of make sure each piston comes up level with the top of the block. If you have one that sit lower you may have a bent rod.

The most precise method is to knock the sump off as well and remove each piston and rod assembly and then you can ...

How is your starter motor?
Seen this type of problem before and it's generally been the starter is dying and can't turn the engine fast enough when hot.
Just a thought...

Have you tried temporarily hard wiring the fuel cut solenoid? That will tell you if it's in the imobiliser

Found this when looking on a photography forum, guys has built 2 expedition vehicles out of ex army acco's

Have a read of this, it seems getting the auto to work out of the original car is a bit of a mission

Rear axle out of a tele handler or a all terrain forklift

in NSW you get a GVM upgrade, its pretty much a suspension upgrade. then you will need a engineers cert... generaly the upgrade is good for around 500kg's

Gvm is how much your vehicle can weigh, has absolutely nothing to do with towing capacity so upgrading will not help.
What is need is a gcm ...

Two more setups I've been toying with are 44" jeep wrangler rears in the front, and 51.5" jeep Cherokee in the rear
And
44" Hilux fronts up front and 51" hilux rears

Both setups to fit in stock mounts with custom shackles

Both theoretical until I register the ute then can start playing with ...

I've read heaps on rmpo about leaf setups you guys in the us are using, the problem is over here cutting hangers and rewelding will require a engineers certificate which keep going up in price each year, you can get away with it easily but its a insurance issue if some thing ever happens, so most ...

im just running the standard driveline for the moment, although plans are under way for some improvements.

sounds like a nice setup you have there, did you bring the engine forwards so you can access the rear plugs or did you cut holes in the footwell? any pics? how does it go?

have you thought about a ka24e out of a d22?
it will bolt into your mounts bolt up to your gearbox, easyer to find and cheaper. may need sump mods hardest part would be wiring it up and thats not that hard
easy to boost later on if you want more power out of it.

just a thought

thats how it was when i got it

this is the most recent one i have of it

thats good to know, id proberbly go with custom shackles or modified cruiser ones, some thing doesnt seem right about shaving 10mm off the eyes, once i get my ute blue slipped then ill start playing with spring packs,

i was thinking 79 series as they are longer then 75 series, but im not sure if ...

ive been ready lots about spring pack lengths and sizes to fit into my ute, rear out of a 75 series cruiser or later will work, they are longer so may need longer shackes depending on how the angle ends up and from what series they are out of, as for fronts the rears out of a non ifs hilux should ...

bolt a su on the side of it that, will solve your problems

i mangaed to find the thread on pirate for those who are interested

toyota supras, cressidas and early celica come out with a a340 auto which is just a renamed aw4 auto. so would i be able just swap the bellhousing over on one of these?
my reasoning behind this is that it would save dropping the transfer case off the vitara auto and it shouldnt be to hard to get a ...

do you have the auto box?

I believe that the bellhousing pattern is different to the g series motors, although the gearbox itself is an AW-4, the same as a 1.6.

I'm in the very early planning stages of the same conversion. There's a thread of a guy doing in in Germany on Pirate - and in his case ...

G'day
ive been given a 2L v6 out of a vitara and im thinking of putting it into my sierra. ive searched but there doesnt seem to be much information on doing it.
does it use the same auto box behind the 1.6 with a different bellhousing or is it completely different gearbox?

G'day
im just about to re ring my sierra and ive been given a set of higher compression pistions 10:1 they are swift gti pistons and they have the 4 recess in the top of the piston for the valves. I thought that all G series engines were a non interfrence motor, so i shouldnt have any problem using ...

G'day
im lookin at putting a su carby on my 1.3, the carby im lookin at using is a hif38 mounting to the original manifold with an adaptor. the question is apart from ebay does anyone know where i could find one of these carbies?

mundy

one out of a small 4wd isuzu or mitsubishi truck would work

cool thanks heaps

G'day
is there any problems with using a bp4es in my sierra as opposed to the normal bp5es?
as the current plugs keep fouling due to oil gettin past the valve stem seals, so was just goin to run a hotter plug as a temporary fix

mundy

if you mix some oil in with your grease to, so your grease turns to a thick liquid it would work, that way it still flows like oil so you still lubricate all your bearings properly but is still thick enough that it wont leak past seals as quick.

mundy

he should look at at off road truck tyres, some thing around the 10-12 ply range, thick heavy tyres that are very puncture resisant, can find them in 7.50 r16 size, mates dad runs these on his troopy does 1000s of desert ks every year hasnt had a puncture yet.

http://arquivo.forum.autohoje.com ...

I'd be looking at a 7.50 16 as a spare for a 33 and a 6.50/7.00 as a spare for a 31/32. these can go on a 4.5" sierra 16" rim and will be light and more importantly have way less leverage than whatever is on the ground.

how hard are the 4.5" sierra 16" rim to find? any ideas where can find a ...

200 thousand id be thinkn bout changin the timing belt on it, a good guide is to change it every 100 thousand although sum require it to be done more frequent then that.

mundy

where would you buy such a "kit" and how much would it cost?

mundy

from wat they taught me at tafe, when you start injecting fuel in to a diesel engine there is a delay between when injection starts and when the fuel starts to burn, they said if you mix petrol in that this delay doesnt occur and that the fuel burns straight away which can cause damage to the tip of ...
