But the air dog would overcome the possible fuel starvation and you could just have the standard or aftermarket before it right?

What about the pure flow air dog ( a member gave a link a while ago about these) for the new vehicles? Haven't heard much about them or people running them only what i read from their page.

Mate picked up an older model troopy seat and it fitted straight in so he could take his missus and kid.

The charcoal silver grey they used on the later model 100 series looks great and the colour i'd love to paint my 80 series. Looked smick after a good polish on my uncles 100 any way.

Has anyone run an eaton trutrac center in the rear of their fourby?

I'm looking at fitting up a wilwood master cylinder to a vp commodoore v8 booster.

G'day, after info on adapting a master cylinder to a booster with different flange bolt hole positions. I'm thinking of making an adaptor to suit but that would make the master cylinder sit the thickness of the adaptor further out from the booster... Can the shaft be lengthened to account for the ...

Had a look around the new ford/mazda dual cab other day and it looked alright apart from the very small gap between tire and shock strut. It looked to me if you let you're tyres down the tyre would scrub the strut. Has anyone had this happen or noticed the lack of room there?

So I can get away with using the clutch and fly wheel off the z? Only asking this as I can pick up a good cheap box out of a 100 series.

Wondering how much trouble you'd have fitting a manual box from 100 series 1hdfte to 80 series 1hz? Basically same gearbox but use different size clutch right?

Whats the best dual battery system to run a glassmat and lead acid? Been told they fight each other and have seen a few die prematurely. Can you get away with something basic or better off with a marine or similar?

Just wondering if many people are running 5000 series or remote res bilstein shocks on their 80. Looking into using an 8 inch shock to suit 4 inch lift, carrying a load touring and offroad work. Trying to find a set that i don't have to chop and change too much to fit.

I know cooking spray works on mild steel but does it still work on stainless?

Not allowed to use any anti spatter spray because the customer reckons it upsets the weld integrity, peno and all that. Bloody trains will fall apart anyway. :finger: tell the customer to do it himself if he knows all ;) Anti spatter spray doesn't do anything for stainless as seen on the jobs and ...

:bad-words: :bad-words: Been putting up with it for months now at work, real prick when a chisel wont work and can't get a grinder in there. Costomer won't take splatter... :bad-words: Try spray on cooking oil. Makes a pretty good anti-spatter for stainless. Regular stuff does fark all. lmao ...

Capral, alspec, ulrich and any metal supplier will get the stuff in like ezi metal etc.

Stainless spatter is a bastard to get off.[/quote] Been putting up with it for months now at work, real prick when a chisel wont work and can't get a grinder in there. Costomer won't take splatter...

Yeah thats a given and lined up. Thinking more about the small things i might forget.

Rebuilding my 1HDT and trying to cross off all the parts that need replacing while its out. Usual stuff like engine mounts, clutch etc etc that won't be done by the engine rebuilder like water pump. I always forget something so anything that you guys would recomend would be greatly appreciated ...

Turned out to be the starter, the gear wasn't retracting properly and catching. Had a spare in the shed so happy days!

Having problems with inner bearing spinning on axle from wear and have previously used a loctite before but looking for one that will hold fast for an easy fix instead of sleeving or new axle.

Was VERY common on them

Thanks mate, need to work out if its worth separating the motor and gear box or sell it as a paper weight.

This is not in a fourby but alot of blokes are running the ol buik. Right when my brother started his car for me to listen to this knock it didn't sound like a bearing, when turning over there was a loud clang, rattle etc then a then it settled to a loud knock (did not sound like a bearing). Swear ...

Wurth KD bond is a good bit of gear, used sika and kd on the same job and the kd dried faster and was way better to use.

I've used the selleys mastic on the fire wall/footwell where i repaired some rust. I stitched in some zinc seal sheet that over lapped a lil, couple of coats of paint then mastic inside and out to help seal then more over the top. 4 years on its still good.

"Sorry we are unable to sell that item seperately"
Back to the drawing board....

That Safari cooler looks pretty impressive, but it's probably got an impressive price tag too. I seriously doubt Safari would sell you the adaptor plate on it's own. Just tee into the OEM oil pressure sender for your aftermarket gauge, it worked a treat on my previous multivalve 80... Already have ...

Finally found exactly what i'm after, http://www.safarisnorkel.com/turbo/1hz_ ... cooler.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The filter adaptor and core is all i want and the thermostat in there would work a treat.

Bloke iknow ran half AT fluid and normal gear oil which he was happy with. I use valvoline gear oil with additive. The additive made a big different with noise and shifting in low gears when cold.

Firestone or equivelant
