If you can't find any numbers try taking a few photo's of it, or find someone in yr area that services these.

Hi The front drive shaft seal on my 78 Series has a bit of a leak, looking for information and experiences on replacing this - I have the part but have no diagrams on how it goes in. My Guess would be to remove the front drive shaft and bell coupling from the transfer case leaving just the shaft ...

Some do get dirty! http://i985.photobucket.com/albums/ae335/prichens/4WD/DSCF1125.jpg Clearly this is not always the case, but at the price and current age of these 4x4's I guess it's not surprising. All said we had a good time out a Sundown National Park. * This is just one of the 4x4's going on ...

ok so i found a problem, i turns out that the fan and everything inside the cab get powered off a cable that goes to the front fuse box in the engine bay, this cable get power from the alternator. What ive done is wire this cable to a switched active of the ignition, so when i turn on the car i get ...

The car sounds good if you like doing a bit of rough stuff.
looks like a nice car but as with all car sales you need to have a good look at it -
From what I have been told by a guy at work that is in to jeeps all of the mods listed would give it very good wheel travel and obviously better traction.

Cool

Can't wait for the photo's!

I'm now confused!
This comment is totally out of context?
I will be changing back to Dot3 ASAP.

That sounds like a strong possibility, if the fan is not working the A/C will not be working - I hope! With all fault finding start simple - bit like me :oops: Look at what is working and what is not, same with tracing the actual fault, work from the switch, if it has no power go back further. Often ...

I guess most people that would install an after market Taco are rice cars running on petrol with a little NOS from time to time. most people I see with aftermarket tachos have stock engines, with the shift lights set at 2000rpm so it comes on in maccas carpark. Serious question - do race cars have ...

My 2005 78 Series Troopy has clearly printed on the top of the brake and clutch reserve tanks covers - use only DOT3 ... Bugger me I did not realise there was an issue with DOT4 - and that is what I replaced it with!!! Interesting as I noticed a different noise from the clutch peddle, bit of a ...

Man you guys are a little slow on this thread - only 3 pages!!! Good to see the shit filter is still switched to full bore.. So I guess the main Question - or answer should be is it possible to swap the Taco you have to one that already has a shift light? Mind you the one shown on Page two of this ...

Man I wish sometimes my diesel revved that hard and quick that I needed a visual indicator to chance gears. I reckon once I get about 500 rpm below peak torque I've got about 30 seconds to recognise that and grab a new gear else risk falling outside my powerband (which is just off idle to about ...

Put a micro sw in the tach just where the needle hits the revs you want, run a light off the sw. Bazzle You could always just glance at the needle. Even doing 0-100 in under 10 seconds you've got about 3 seconds to plan each shift. ;) The power and signal is all at the Tacho, all you need to cut ...

Maybe the big tach could trigger off the cam sensor or off the alterantor. Good luck Zac Andy Cheers, not worried about the tacho as i have a VDO one already. Just want to wire up a shift light. Ok we are getting somewhere - oh and the gear you already have - Geez how the hell did I know you were ...

Easily sorted - turn the lights off - if it's still hot after a while you may have a problem, part of the reason I love LED lights so much! Mind you I have a couple of 10Watt LED modules and they get very hot if no heart sink is stuck to the back of the module, thinking of buying a 100Watt version ...

Is it automatic? No manual. The setup is a high reving diesel that i only want to rev to a certain rpm. As there is no power loss it is easy to get carried away. Cheers So it's not an Auto... So I guess the Getto blaster is up way too loud! But seriously it should be easy to install a shift light ...

Looking for anyone on the forum that can help me with Drive by Wire Cruise control install or installers - either to install it for me or to give some help with Wiring for the accelerator cable part, even as simple as the part number for the "T" connector for the AP800 Cruise control interface.

Hi I need help or someone that can sort this out for me! I am trying to install Cruise Control to my 2005 78 Series 4.2L TD with Drive By Wire, the problem is I do not have the Wiring harness T that is needed for my car - I have been chasing diagram but have not found any yet, so I tried to buy the ...

Yep it's called a Diff lock!

The comment about Nissan LSD's
A mechanic once told me the ultimate truck would be a Toyota with Nissan Diffs - maybe there is something in this

Why the hell would you want it inside the car? Safe from mud and water?? They are designed to be out in the elements - it's only the air intake that is a problem, this can be easily extended to a high point or as I did into the Air intake box. As for the comment about it over heating, if it's the ...

Usually it's front if you have a good Lim in the rear.
But if it's totally open or a Toyota put it in the rear - even better both

Run a good Isolator like the Redarc, you don't need breakers, just make sure you use fuse blocks off the batteries for you accessories. Most important thing is use split convoluted tubing and secure your wiring, you won't have any trouble nor need mains breakers Good advice, I have experienced the ...

Was thinking about this as well as I'm putting in a dual battery soon. When I worked at a truck workshop, most of them had auto and manual circuit breakers which I think might be a good option. Pic of what I mean http://www.stanford.edu/~sunid/battery/images/CircuitBreaker.JPG May seem like a nice ...

Why the hell would you want it inside the car? Mine is mounted in behind the passenger side head light, on a special bracket ARB had made for the 78 Series, I also got them to extend the intake as it is mounted front down, they placed the intake behind the motor, I moved it to inside the Air intake ...

Short of actually taking it to someone like ARB or TJM and asking them to help you could try some of the metal fabricating companies around the area, the only problem is there are just so many of them that they tend to specialise in different areas and often don't want to be bothered with fiddly ...

The light holes look similar to mine, that would make it a comercial ARB Bullbar.

But after I was told that I also found a sticker that confirmed it, I guess as you have painted yours there was no sticker & if there were it's long since been removed or covered.

I purchased a set of 55W HID - H1 Lighting kit that I have now fitted into my driving lights the kit cost around $100 from ebay. I did an experiment by installing just one then comparing either light - WoW was my response, not only did the HID light give a very powerful spot it also give a much ...

WoW 70W how much did this cost?

Bugger

Why are we always the last to adopt standards.

Hi I don't currently have any problem with my Motor or ECU but have tried to read the ECU with two different OBD11 Readers in both cases the devices came back with a protocol error or simply could not read the ECU! I also tested my Daughters Toyota Starlet with one of the tools and it gave a similar ...

Just caught up with this subject. Mid last year I was looking at the TJM Lockers for my 78 Series, ended going with ARB due to one fact - TJM could not supply them until early November, I checked "just out of interest" late November and they were still unavailable! Found it hard to believe that TJM ...
