Re: Triton dash facia removal

Thanks date. My original thought was the resistors. But all speeds have decided to work. Intermittent stuff. Hate it. The main problem was the directional flow. A bit of a fiddle, a few choice words and some Inox and its fixed for the time being. When I get more time I will pull the lot apart. There ...

Mine doesnt shudder.

Just thumps a bit going over reasonable bumps.

My mech of 30 years said he could replace it but probably have to do it again within 100.000ks.

You can get under vehicle and rattle the tailshaft around.

Seems to be inherent in the tritons.

Air Con pulley bearing stuffed

3.0 v6 99 Triton. The bearing in the pulley on the front of the compressor is stuffed. Still works but makes a hell of a noise. Took the belt off and I can rattle the pulley from side to side. Can the pulley be taken off without removing the unit?.If so, how. Or does the comp need to come out ...

The 2 hour job that took 7

A bit of background first. My 99 Triton v6 3litre petrol was getting a little sad. 280k on the clock, blowing smoke, using oil like a 2 stroke and missing badly under load. Can't afford a new one untill the kids finish school in 6 years. So a month ago I went and got a 2nd hand donk with 120k on the ...

Probably better off getting a decent trayback and going the gooseneck fifth wheel route. 3 tonnes is a lot of boat and you dont want that comming thru the back windscreen when you try to stop in a hurry. Have a look at some of the fishing forums. A lot of talk on them about towing weights and ...
