Outer Limits 4x4 Board

If all else fails use a rattle gun to undo the nut...

Fixed the leak to a large extent. Inside cover plate had come loose..
25 Litres of diesel to travel 40k's....
Sealed up and loctited screws.. So far so good.

But will steer clear of a 3L pump due to different internals..

My current pump is leaking like a sieve. And it is a lot cheaper to replace the pump with a known good pump from a 3L than to get mine overhauled.Less than 1/3 the price....

Cool, I will have a look..

Cheers.

Only a 2L.

Have you tried to drain the fuel filter/water separator or change the fuel filter.

If you have a blocked fuel filter it start, run for a bit and then die as the turbulence of the flow of fuel will stir up all the muck in the filter and block it.

Will a 3L diesel fuel pump fit and work on a 2L motor???

Are the petrol and diesel gearbox's in the LN/RN65's the same?? G52, spline counts, transfer cases etc?? I have an old G52 box with a 21 spline output shaft , 4th gear gone bush, and another G52? ( bundera?) box that has a 27 spline output shaft. Is there an adaptor available to make my transfer ...

Rn46 is around '79-early '83. As for the 50???

Switches may fit. Best to get the steering wheel of each one and have a look at the mountings for the stalks..

Firewall in every gear!!!!!!!! Well it is 2.4 lux!!!!

Air locker dude. When it's in, it's in.. Save the pennies and do it right the first time...

Another 2L diesel just bit the dust. Number 3 conrod through the block just below the starter BUGGER!

Give me some suggestions for engine transfer/swap/rebuild with newer block.
I have a 253 that is a thought at the moment.

Any ideas please... Budget is low too thanks to owning a house....

I put new rings and stuff in mine a few weeks back. It had been bored out 40 thou or 1mm for those metric persons. Had ovversize pistons in it and oversize rings... No idea waht the max capacity is though...

I paid $1000 for rebuild on 2L injector pump and and injector swap over for reco'd ones. So price sounds about right..

Cheers dude. Will look into it further...

Allready have clevo and box.. Or would go for a chev or rover...

Hey fellas, is it worth rebilding the 2L diesel or should it be dumped and a 351 cleveland put in its place???

Any ideas on cost of adaptor kits and stuff for the clevo?

It is easy enough to cut out a section and replace it with some 1.6mm or 2mm sheet. I have done the floor in my lux. Had some nice size holes in it. Cut out floor around rust, and used it as a template to cut out new steel. Mig'd it in place, painted and jobs done. If you need it bent, use a vice ...

To remove the tar sound deadener, get some dry ice from BOC gases or an industrial supply place and throw it on your floor and let it evaporate for a while. This will make the tar go hard and brittle then just hit it with a scraper or screwy and it should peel off relatively cleanly. :armsup: Make ...

Been in it about 18 months with the locker. So about 35-40000k's. Was a front diff out of a 4runner. So as for previous k's, unknown. Driving flat sealed road in 4th at around 60 clicks. Sounded like a rock hit the tail shaft. Checked it when I got home, about 5 k's from the where it clunked, and ...

Rear diff went clunk and that was it. Didn't sound good at the time but kept driving fine. Still has one large chunk in the front of the carrier somewhere. Can hear it rattle but wont come out. Crown wheel is fine and dandy as is the locker...

Have run a mix for years with no problems at all. 50/50 was what I used to run. Get a white spirits drum and take it away. Just don't get caught. Could be deemed as theft as most of the fuel and oil is recycled. But give it a go. Works a treat.. Slight power gain as well.

Yes half doors would be nice for a comp or trail only rig, but as a daily driver it is a little inconvienient. The lower hinges only are $71 for drivers and $65 for passengers. Go figure wich one they sell more of...... :bad-words: Got it passed rego so it's all good now... A coke can cut into ...

Anyone got any ideas on how to remove the slop in 23 year old door hinges? Short of replacing then at over $130 per door...
Or does anyone have any in fair condition that wish to get rid of? To fit an LN46 lux.

does a 2.25" or 2.5" exhaust make any difference to the sound/ power to a 2.4 diesel with extractors?? Mine has a slightly more noticable note to it but the power is up a gear on hills.. Big difference. Went 2.5" because it was the same price as 2.25" plus I have an sc12 supercharger to fit to it ...

Mine follows basically the factory route. From the extractors under the tailshaft to the left hand side of the truck, rearwards under the tub where the muffler is and over the diff. Exits just in front and inside of the left hand rear shackle. As for cutting it short you may have legal issues and ...

Just got a 2.5" system fitted to my 2.4 lux from the extractors back. Cost $350 including muffler and fitting. Made a big difference and was the same price as 2.25". They even painted it all black .....

I think Screwy got screwed.....

The other non environmentally friendly way to protect the inside of you chassis is to tape or block all the holes bar the highest one on each side and fill the rails up with old engine oil. Seal the fill hole and go for a drive for while to find a nice hole in the middle of no where and unblock the ...

Fit a bigger section of steel tube over the existing bit and clamp the hose over that. May have to weld or braze it on...
