Outer Limits 4x4 Board

G Day,

I'm about to get a 42TD or TD42T engine, well is the turboed one from factory with its gear box as well. So I'm wondering if some mods are required in order to install it into my GQ shorty. I know that with the engine it self there myth be no drama, but I'm not sure about the gear box. So any help will be very much appreciated.


Cheers....

you'll need a diesel spec fuel filter
and a glow plug relay and exhaust system
and do the clutch before you put it all in

rip the vacume canister and stuff off the fire wall of the car your getting the motor from.
make sure you get the alt with the pump.

cheers smitty

What you mean about a diesel spec fuel filter is the original 42TD fuel filter right?

And what's the plug relay?

I'm the guy from Panama.
Actually I thought you bought it here. Many guys from CR come to Panama to purchase cars and engines ...

Yes I remember you Mario, well I haven't bought the engine yet.

yeh the fuel filter that comes with the TD42 or u can go after market
i'm assuming you have a TB42 now ...


glow plug relay so you can glow the glow plugs on the TD42

and you'll also need the alt with oil pump

alt = alternator

diesels run an alt with a vacume pump on the back of the alt. for brakes and clutch.

just saying, make sure the original one comes with the engine as they can be expensive.

Of course alternator , thanks hammey !!!

Somebody told me that I will have some issues with the GU gear box, cause the transfer case lever is different at the GQ one, so it's not going to be easy to fit it into my GQ shorty, do you guys know something about it?
