Outer Limits 4x4 Board

The easiest way is to jack the whole car up with all 4 wheel on the air and put the Transfer-Lever to 4WD mode......start it up and try to observe where is the noise came from

The boost of a Normal 4D56/4M40 is run at 0.8 KG/Cm......i got a mate run up to 1.2 KG/Cm without a problem but he had a boost controller inside the cabin which he set it at 1 Kg/Cm for normal drive and 1.2 Bar when the maximum raw power need to be extracted from the engine.....if you run it ...

Your mate Triton is a Auto or a Manual?

I don't think it was the CV joint as it will happen only on full lock,but this is happen on a slight steering angle and most of it are on straight and it was loud :!: I think it was the Transfer-Case Chain,the chain might be stressed and drag along the sprocket teeth "jump teeth" ......anyway,do you ...

I don't think so a MK1/Gen 1 Pajero had Air-Locker as a factory fitted item....only Gen 2 had it,but you can swap it to the Gen 1 rear axle if the pumpkin diameter are the same "not sure if Gen 1 is equip with 8.5" or 9" rear axle" :roll: Just a suggestion,why don't you consider to put a Factory LSD ...

There is no way you can create Turbo Flutter noise in a Diesel.....as the engine uses up all the boost pressure when decelerate rather than restrict it like the petrol's do.....the diesel control it's speed/AFR by regulate amount of fuel injected and not amount of air flow into the cylinder so there ...

If the Alternator had been sealed tighly....don't the Alternator will have cooling problem as the Vent is design for cooling

I have this problem too with my 2.5TD MK1 Pajero "gen 1" .....had 1 time when i go into the water the 3 light appear on the dash and after the drive it emit a really loud noise and turn out the lubricant of the Alternator bearing was washed out....luckily some WD40 serve it run again.... Now when i ...

You got to be kidding "or maybe for a expert it can be done,but not for noobies like me :oops: " ......the whole thing including the gearbox got to come out as an assembly so it could be a big job....last time im sent it to a gearbox speciallist to replace the Manual box,it had taken a one and a ...

Anyone

I wonder if the chain inside the Transfer-Case is stretched,can i adjust/replace it while the case is on the Paj?....cause it's a pain to get the whole box out

If u guys had seen my last post regarding the Free Wheeling Hub,you guys will know about i have some noise problem when the hub is locked in 2WD mode.....but further investigation,the noise is from the Transfer-Case,not from the front axle...... Today i jack the front end up to check the front axle ...

when i still got em (now i'm using gen2 hubs and axle), i always set it to free when i'm not in 4wd mode. by engaging it to lock, you also force the drive shafts to unnecessary movements and introduce unnecessary wear to them. imho, i don't think its the free wheeling hubs that's making the noise ...

Thanks for the reply guys :) When a CV fail,it will emit noise during cornering only aren't they :roll: I've try to grab the Drive shaft and wobble it around,it does move a little bit on the Passenger side,at the driver side i not testing yet....so could this become the cause of my problem? The ...

I had an MK1 Pajero which equiped with a pair of AISIN Manual FreeWheeling Hub on the front wheel......the problem is when set it to lock and drive it with the transfer lever still in 2H,i will get a kind of ratcheting noise,it like once each revolution of the wheel and it get louder when the speed ...

Or some bad news.....some Coils on Pajeroes 2.6 (4G54) use Ballast Resistor Coils (BRC) ..... they are not operate at 12V but at 6V so putting a direct 12V to them will direct burnt them out ...... Try to find a friend who willing to borrow the coil for you "Make sure it's the same type" and fit it ...

Hi mate....try to put a Bulb in series.....disconnect the Negative lead from both battery and connect either one side of the bulb terminal to the battery Negative lead,put another terminal to the battery negative terminal and a setup is complete ;) See if the bulb is lit up or not,if it does lit ...

I will try to realease the clutch in 4L at 2500 Rpm and see if it withstand,if not i would say good bye to it

Change the gearbox oil at every 20000Km are fine

LooKs like you're having so much fun in that Rain Forest Challenge....Feels like wanna to take my Pajero to there

But she is in a quite stock condition ,needs sometime to mod her 1st before can really takes the Challenge:roll: .....maybe will be at there at RFC 2010

How could it be....if i was not wrong the 2.6 Astron is a N/A Carburetted engine,the manifold is totally diffrent with the TurboDiesel one

Thanks guys for suppling the info

Well i will kept this V5M21 gearbox and use it with care....i hope this would last for couple of years

Guys.....i need your advice,if i use the Paj as a off-roader,could this V5M21 gearbox let me down,what benefit actually on this gearbox

What i meant is the newest generation of 4D56,the DI-D one....are it good for off-roading compare to it's predecessor that fitted in most MK1,MK2 Pajeroes and L200 .... I m now drive a MK1,i felt the Pajero is underpower and found that the DI-D one can be tuned by simple Unichip,just wonder if i can ...

Hi Bitsamissin and Cameron.... Cameron....Suprised that you were are also :) .... Its a MK2 i think,the Mechanic say from a 2.5TD ;) Bitsamissin....i just discover it was machined on the top of bellhousing,can be seen through the bottom of the firewall....but don't know good or bad it was a V5M21 ...

The MK Pajero just have the gearbox recently replaced as the old one is kaput......i need to identify it but how

Just hope it was the V5MT1 one

Yea,there was an green coloured with a 4-wheel joined by 2 probshaft and a transfer-case logo light,just beside the right turn signal light! ;) Now even i shift to 4H or 4L,the light does not came on,when i crawl under the paj,i found there has 2 wire hanging around and being disconnected by ...

Does anyone are there is any switch on the Transfer-Case of a Pajero Mk1 to illuminate the light on the instrutment cluster when in 4WD mode?
