Hi All,

Im toying with the idea of having a lokka or spartan auto locker installed in the front of my GU. Can anyone tell me of places in perth who can install these?

has anyone actually done one themselves, is it hard to do or a DIY'er?

Also if you have any good recommendations where to buy the ...

Hi All,

Ive had my Patrol about 6 months and the LPG was in it when I bought it.

Never had a drama till yesterday.

Driving through a shopping centre carpark the controller started flashing and beeping.

It stopped if I pressed the button but the lights continued to flash.

Im not sure what system ...

I have had the same prob it turned out to be the rear diff oil, causing the LSD to suddenly "release". the fix was an additive to smooth up the friction discs the product i used was from holden ask for LSD oil additive it wont hurt the LSD . This is only if you dont already have a locker! ( could ...

Oh yeah,

Thanks

Ok, need more help before I set fire to this car.

Hi All,

I have an 02 GU Patrol 4.8L Auto which I have recently bought.
I want to change all the oils, front and rear diff, T/Case, Engine and Transmission.
I have read conflicting info as to whats a good oil to use, and type for that matter…..
Can anyone make some recommendations for each oil I ...

Well I can say that even with a 2" lift, the proportioning valve bracket IS required. I made myself one at work, fitted it and what a difference in braking feel and performance :-)

Thanks mate, I wonder if that my clunk I cant locate....

Hi All,

I have just bought an 02 GU Patrol. The guy I bought it off recently put in a 2" lift which by my measurements is actually about 2.5".

The Q I have is what else is / should be done with a lift of this height.

I have read that longer sway bar links and proportioning valve bracket are ...

Hi Rick,

I dont know anyone however Im keen to pull it out and get the grease out of it and start again. Any ideas if this can be done?

Well,

I went to 2 suspension places today and they completely checked it over. Nothing to be found, all good.

Someone mentioned an additive for the trans, anyone know what one to use????

Thanks

Hi all,

I have recently bought an 02 GU111 4.8 Auto Patrol.

It has a lovells 2" lift.

When Im slowing to a stop (well nearly stoppeed) theres a clunk from the rear.

It seems as though when braking, something moves, then pops backed when stopped.

SOMETIMES, if I brake really gently itll do it ...

Ok, you thing it's trans related.
But my GU, and several others I know, have developed the same symptoms.

Ease off from a standing start, gentle on the throttle, somewhere between first and second there's a soft clunk.... You can feel it as much as hear it.

When slowing down gently, it's there ...

I did a bit of a experiment today.

When slowing down I put it into neutral, NO NOISE?????

Obviously the trans somewhere as mentioned above?

Any ideas??

Thansk again all....

would this cause poor performance also?

Thanks guys, Is it easy to check the timing on these, I have a timing light etc??

Not saying that it is the fuel pump. but I would expect that if the pump was sus, it would starve the engine for fuel at high loads - high revs/high load. I would be looking for a vacuum hose either fallen off or perished, whic allows air to get into the engine at low revs, mucking up the air/fuel ...

Hi All,

I have lost alot of bottom end torque in my MK V6 3.0L Triton. I have put 31" tyres on it however I didnt notice the loss of power when I did it.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can check?

It has a new air filter etc etc.

Thanks

Hi All,

Im thinking about having a "lokka" installed in the front of my 98 MK Triton.

I have been told by a few people I would be best off haveing freewheeling / manual hubs installed first..

Has anyone done this, is it hard to do at home?

Any information appreciated...

Cheers Shaun

Hi all,

My 98 MK triton doesnt have speakers in the front doors, only little ones in the dash. Can anyone tell me if 6" component speakers will fit in there?

I have the grilles in the door pockets but want to make sure before I cut the trim etc behind the grilles...

Thanks.

Hi all,

I have a set of Narva 225 Ultimas, 100w.

Theres an option of 55w also.

Can anyone share some info on this for me please??

Cheers Shaun

Hi All,

The heads on the bolts of my torsion bar adjusters are pretty well stuffed.

I wanted to raise the front a bit so I enquired with Mitsubishi about a new set.

They quoted me $150 for 2 new bolts and associated nuts. :bad-words:

My question is, can I simply measure the lenght and size of ...

Hey mate, I fit an N70ZZ in the same spot on the piranah tray, fits piece of piss!!
