I'm performing a SOA on a '94 Samurai, is there a need to make some modifications (cut, weld,..) to the crossmember that hold the tranny and t-case?
Will the front drive shaft hit it?

Thanks!

Will a 96' injected engine fit in a 87' Samurai with carb?

Are there needed some modifications to the engine mounts, will the new engine bolt on the old tranny?

What parts of the 96' Samurai will I need to make it run (electronic)?

Thanks!

I have only this!

Do you have any fluid in the clutch master cilinder bottle, if there is no fluid you may have a leak and as a resault there is air in your sistem and no connection between the clutch pedal and clutch itself!

DR Frankenstine:
no the bearing free play is adjusted by removing or adding the shims.

Which shims?

Anybody ever try to made a engine and tranny lift? Recently I put a 2" body lift to my Patrol and now I was thinking of makeing a engine and tranny lift, but I'm not sure if it's save. I was thinking of just a 1" or 1 1/2" lift, to make a flat surface under the frame. What do you guys think? :?

Look at the V8Patrol thread, he moved the hole crossmember backwards. I think this is the best solution.

How long does the timer glow up for? Nissans dont glow for long enough. You need 20 secs for normal and 30 secs in the cold. you may try glowing it twice.

The lite is on for 10 seconds , I will try to glow it twice the next time and will see what happens

Thanks

Like the glow plugs where bad (my are new), there is a lot of smoke the first time I try to start it up, in the second attempt it starts right up normaly.

I have some problems starting my Patrol SD33T engine during rain or when the weather is humid. And the temperature is high here, we have summer in Europe.

I used a round tube (48 mm) and two pieces of plate for the mounting holes.
I made a pic for you.

If not, did anybody have anysuggestion how to do it?

Thanks

It is possible to run a 12V winch on 24V?
What do you think, will this destroy the motor or it will help the motor to run better with less effort and coller?

The problem is that we don't have the old setup anymore!

I have to make a new start setup (the old is in the trash) to a friends zook buggy with a 1.3 engine, he would like to start the engine with the use of a push button. With the wireing for the lights and other small stuff I will not have big problems, but the start wireing will kill me. I made the ...

How is the rest of the truck, engine, axles,...?

So iI have to unbolt the t-case from the tranny of my Patrol SD33T, it is a 5 speed and do the same thing on a 28RTD Patrol. Wich is the best way to do so? It is my first time that I do this.
PS: Both are not mounted in a vehicle.

I use a suba diving tank.
I made my own reducer and then mated it to a CO2 bottle gauge where I attache the air line.

So I buy a Unimog 411 for transplant the axles to my Patrol MK. And was thinking of using pinion brakes for make the axles lighter. Is this a good idea, it's a offroad only vehicle. Which is the best set up to use? How big disk brakes and what type of master cilinder should I use? I was thinking of ...
