Outer Limits 4x4 Board

No oil pressure or a faulty sender switch.

Broken speedo cable.

Low brake fluid level in the master cylinder resevoir.

Put in an 8A80 from the Dignity. 4.5 litres of V8 Mitsi muscle would be great. Better than 206KW from the factory with the three catalytic converters fitted.

Hey there 95Shorty, nice truck!!

Are you a member of one of the local clubs??

I'm in the Burnie area.

Greggo

I think that your last comment is most likely what the problem was. Not to worry, one day I'll get around to doing the 3000GT motor transplant. You know, the one with the big supercharger instead of twin turbos.

Valves are almost new. Very little carbon left after a carbon clean treatment. Timing is spot on. Compression has been raised slightly. The fire rings show no signs of detonation or heat stress. The heads were torqued down with a calibrated Warren and Brown. The fire rings have split which has ...

Thanks for the replies chaps. The Mono-torques have arrived!! :) Well almost.... :cry: The bloke behind the counter forgot to order the parts for two days. :cry: Then when they turned up, he'd only ordered one head gasket and not the two I had asked for. :cry: But wait for it... the one that turned ...

Hello chaps, I've whipped the top of the ol' girl to see where all my coolants going and don't you know it, blown head gasket again!! 91 NH 3L V6 6g72 I replaced the original to me, head gaskets about 2 years ago due to having to replace a dodgily repaired cylinder head. I used a brand that's ...

My NH cracked in the same place but horizontally. I took it to a mate who is a prof welder and like SJ said, a nice row of short welds to hold it together, and a couple of runs to seal it up. It's been 4 to 5 years since it's been done and no leaks. If you do it yourself, just don't let it get too ...

Go the Super Shorty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

340k with rings, valve stem seals and bottom end bearings done at 230k.

Dean...

How do you differenciate between a wacky stick and a wacky pole??

Greggo

Hey there klrevo.

I've just got some of the genuine packing spacers under the bars/above the roof mounts. I set it up so that it sits lower to the front but it's not noticeable.


Don't all wacky sticks fit in the palm of your hand???

Greggo

Hey klrevo, I've been running three Rino Utility bars for a while. I usually only have ladders, timber, quickshade etc up top. I usually kneel on the rear bar to wash the front roof area and lights and have never found the roof to feel dodgy. The mounts for these bars are pop-riveted into the roof ...

It just looks like it's got a monster body lift, big wheels and flares, and a front bash guard to match. It does look cool.

You'll have to do the big pamphlet grab on the way back through the airport. Then you can weed out the good and the crap and start with the list.

Catch you later,

Greggo

Which Paj do you think you'll bring down? Most of the tracks worth seeing can get a little scratchy.

Greggo

G'day Haydn. I'm up in Brunei, oops, I mean Burnie, up the north west coast. I'm a bit far from "HO" bart to travel with my new bub, but I'd be interested in a tour around the west coast if you make it over later in the year. Lot's to see and do. ( See the bog hole, get stuck, get out...) ;) Maybe ...

As Jimoin would say,

Bargin!!

Not lately Got some rally raid in red if that helps?? No SAS though

Greggo

91 NH SWB with 335,000 and running sweet. Only dramas I,ve had were caused by the previous owner who sent it to the cheapest bloke he could find to re-ring and reco the heads. The bloke did a super crap, first day hair dresser apprentice in an auto shop job of things, but after replacing one head ...

What engine Ryno? 3L or 3.5?

Looking good Dean ol' bean. I bet she'll look even sweeter in another twelve months!!

Greggo

It could also be from a leaking waterpump. If you do a quick search you should find a few other links that will discribe similar symptoms.

Greggo

Hello Glenn,

Yes, I did take approx 5mm out of the centre of the packer.

Greggo

I had to take about five mm out of the ones I got so they would fit. Go the jigsaw!!

Greggo

The Pajero bullbar is a lot deeper than the Triton one. It may fit with some modification but as to how much, I do not know.

Greggo

Nice going man. Always good to get evidence that the Paj's are a superior vehicle!!

Burnie, North Western Tasmania, Devil country

Sorry, I honestly don't remember. I just needed it going. I think around $150ish ???????

Hello Grumpy... I shat a coil and ended up with a Bosch unit a few years ago. Direct bolt on, seems to be a great unit. Had to replace a newish set ( under six months old ) of T-PGUN leads because they started arcing like crazy. On with a set of Bosch leads and all's been sweet since. I didn't ...
