its a vacum locker.

hi guys.

has anyone done this mod. here in the philippines. all local gq were sold with original air lockers rear diffs (h233b). to getting a gq diff won't be difficult.

will it be possible to transfer the my original spider gears to the gq diff?

thanks for your help:-)

this is how it looks now:

well i'm just waiting till some one puts some step by step pics up so i can do it. Seems pretty easy to do and i got spare steering arms and all that junk, so i should be able to do it with out to many dramas. I think it would make the old girl much nicer to drive, But then i could be wrong. hi ...

il check my spare diff what the spline count is. cuz i know the axle sline is normally is larger than the birfield sline. will let you know after the holidays.

hi guys,

will i be able to bolt on the rear c200 lsd diff of the zd30 terrano to my front c200 diff of my mk? many thanks.

try adding a ground wire from your engine to the negative pole of your battery. if the volt meter reader does not improve. best to have your alternator serviced.

hi guys,

will be possible to attatch a td42 engine to my existing sd33t transmission? How extensive will the conversion be? thanks

mintoy

hi guys. freind of mine compression tested my sd33-t. the reading was an average of 360psi. is that good or bad? what is the psi range? thanks

Well I got one side undone, but the other side is a real bugger. Ideas to get the allen keys undone ? Should I heat up the steel part ? I dont think WD40 could penetrate where it has to go. I dont have a butane torch or anything, so I will try boiling wtaer later on ! Arghhh, I hate this shite ...

is 6 a hotter plug or colder plug?

here in the philippines. we adjust the valves when the engine is cold are .14mm. thats whats stated in the service manual. is that the same as .34 when its warm. cold is u left the car overnight and adjusted the valves before starting the car the next day

if your bearings are ok. the pistons of the caliper might stuck up. u will have to overhaul the calipers.

Why is that???

Was that the std Gu shocks you say? Front or Back? Im curios as im a poor bloke who is in the need of some longer shocks once i finish with the suspension. Any Detailed info on your lift also? Cheers im using ome springs which at one time started to sag so i had them bend again adding more lift ...

My mate and I ordered new springs from Westcoast suspension, mine for an MK, his for a MQ, they arrived looking same except for the straps holding them together, mine cleared but close, his did not clear at all, I think he grinded a bit off his to get them to fit, there was no way they were gonna ...

hi guys. i need your help in choosing my shox for my mk. I lifted my patrol up 5 inches so my orginal ome shx won't do. the length of the safari and GU shox are just perfect. so which do you think will give a softer ride. the OME for safari or for the GU. thanks

the gu and the mk patrols have the same spline. 29 teeth. is it possible to use to manual hubs of the mq/mk for the gu?

i beleive that all hinges will get worn donwn eventually. so dont worry about it. i dont suggest to take the springs out. resistance from the hinge will be avoit your door from swaying wide open. you might end up damaging you door and fender when your on an incline.

when you dissasemble your front axles to replace the bearings. you might as well service the auto hubs as well.

if your using auto hubs. the bearings have eaten thru the housing. ul be lookng for new ones soon. same thing happend to me and cud not find the bearings so i went manual hubs.

hi guys, now that the subject on lift blocks are being discussed. what material for lift blocks is best to use ( Aluminum, Polyeurathaine, rubber, metal)? I'm planning of ordering a set.

what material do you use for the blocks? do you also have 2" blocks for mk? how much?

The caliper piston is to big.. You will have a very poor pedal and to much messing around getting bias right. you would end up having to change it anyway so don't go there

thank frankenstine. would the rear breake set of the GQ be bolt on?

Yep real easy!! But I think I may have got lucky with my combination. I didnt have to do anything with my master cyl and the rear bias is spot on. Its been in now for a couple of months and I drive 40 kays to and from work every day with lots of steep up and down hill. Absolutely no problems or ...

i read in another thread that the terrano rear diff will fit the front of the gq. will that be true with the mk too?

hi guys. i'm looking for just the pinion and ring gear cuz im sure its going to cost me a bundle to to ship the whole differencial and housing here to the phillipines. How much will a second have pinion & ring gear go for? Thanks

hi guys!!!

Can anyone suggest shops where i can check out their web site for this gear ratio. i figure that i will have to order it and have it shopped here to the phil. cuz they are not available. thanks

does a steering damper miminize this problem?
