Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I just give them a good smear with grease. every so often.

i would be checking that all the glow plugs are heating properly. it sounds like some cylinders are slow to get warm.

as above. I replaced the link rods in my 3inch lifted 60 series with rods from a commodore. stronger than original and about 2 1/2 inches longer. used new washers rubbers and nylock nuts. handling improved greatly. this was after a few months driving with the new springs on the original sway bar ...

engine crane down through the floor hole.

if it is now overfueling, then maybe the fuel governing diafragm in the rear of the fuel pump is shagged. they perish if they get too much oil blown in from the manifolf. about $100 bucks from any diesel fitter. mine went in the bush and the revs just kept climbing. good luck. if it is just that you ...

somehow I don't think the bus will spend much time in undercover parking.

i would change your plan slightly to include some 30mm x 150mm slots. this would enable use of g or f cramps.

hot engine , straight into a cold bath. different metals and gasgets all cooling and shrinking at varied rates. seems i have seen this myself on a couple of wombat trips. diffs aren't the only bits that ingest water. I no longer love mud as much as i used to. It is fun. but you pay the price for it ...

did you use a truckload of grease in the freewheel hub? if so this can stop it from disengaging, it just sucks back onto the gears. scott

glad to help

i bought mine from these guys in perth. they almost beat the payment to my door. i made one for my father-in-law. still have one with stub for my own.

quick follow on to this.

just changed the slave from the early eighties model to the later model slave that came with the 5 speed boxes. about twenty mm longer stroke length. now it( the piston) stays in the barrel and doesn't wobble and pop out.

may help with your issue.

scott

this I like! could carry the commo brakes as well.

nice easy fix. gdonya mate.

it sounds like you may have a puncture in the beadlock. this is leaking out and pressurising the tyre. take it out and check it. if the tyre inflates to the beadlock pressure it may fail.
good luck.

can't help but ask, does it have to use those left hand thread bolts? must be hard to source

mate, i've just gone through this in my hj60 landcruiser. i know. this is nissan! but i tried replacing both master and slave twice. same result each time. ended up persevering with bleeding both master and slave. it now works fine. this issue was not fun when i discovered it in the vic high country ...

maybe a little list of the issues the vehicle has would help. some things are relatively easy to sort out yourself. however, there are not too many reputable mechanics out there who are willing to put their signature to a dodgy roadworthy these days. if you kill someone cause the car is crap, they ...

same thing happened to mine. I replaced the idler diaphragm on the rear of the injector pump. this rubber diaphragm had perished from the oil it was getting sprayed with and no longer actuated the plunger it should move. cost about 75 dollars fitted at a diesel pump specialist in footscray. all ...

100 k's up now and it's starting to feel real good. more power,easier accaleration. might get the fuel bumped up a touch to work with the new injector specs.

IT LIVES! without any issue apart from a couple of weeping fuel connecters it turned over and ran rather sweetly. a bit of bleeding and it was apples. bonnet back on tomorrow, a good washdown and home tomorrow.

motor is nearly back running. all done on the cheap
head done for $400 new seals and a couple of dodgy valves . all redone.
complete kit for engine $920 inc pistons and bores.
$180 to get sleeves bored to match new pistons.
$420 to get my injecters rebuilt to the specs that best match my fuel pump ...

maybe some more information will allow us to make an informed decision. or yes . it's a great deal.

PICNIC.

problem in chair not in car.

Could anyone tell me the length of the bore liner in a 2h from a HJ60? please. I would like to know if you can get the liner out of number six while the engine is in the car.

scott

ok! mute point! engine is now out and will get full rebuild.

thanks for looking

OK liners are 185 mm long, and I ...

i bolted on the rear recovery point off my old nissan 720 dualcab. i only had to open one hole out a little then remove a small section where it overlapped the bullbar base. two hi-tensile bolts, straight into the chassis at the front left. this is the factory nissan 20 odd mm bent round with the ...

hey! WIZ! nice use of the wicked weasel logo. u a fan. i find they ride up

thanks ray, flyology. my father in law is a mechanic and has been having the same probs. i think those mt8051 might be the go. we are in the process of asking "TOYOTA!" they think they have found it from the part no off the rubber.
won't know till it arrives from sydney on monday! @#%$$*
thanks for ...

G'day people, can anyone explain why I am having so much trouble buying replacement mounts for my 2h motor? I have been through the mounts books at Bursons and pulled about six different mounts out onto the desk only to find they are out. most are about 1/2 inch too thick or no locater pin or bolts ...
