Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I get asked this a lot especially from o/seas guys so I thought I'd do a summary of all the Pajero models that were released in Oz so international models can be cross referenced for parts/accessories.
I'll expand the contents as time goes by.
I'll make this a sticky so feel free to add any additional imfo to the database

NOTE :- by checking the compliance plate located under the bonnet or the firewall specific vehicle details such as engine and gearbox codes plus diff ratio's are listed.

good idea frank.
here is a link to the pic thread which shows many of the models:
http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/PHP_Modul ... php?t=1255

NL 3.5L (Gen 2.5)

15" rims dont fit, front brakes too large. Calipers hit the rim.

If you intent to swap the rear LSD to the factory rear locker, right hand side axel needs to be shortened. Or source a genuine one from a locked centre.

NK model Mar 97-Oct 97

Also needs 16" rims, front brakes too large. Calipers hit the rim. This model was the first release with the larger front brakes used in the NL.

differences between the NF and NG superwagons

NGs had the following
- coils in the rear
- larger washer bottle reservior
- chrome "truck style" side mirrors
- same 15 inch rims as NA-NC only chromed
- side steps were dropped from the standards list
- rear mudflaps shortened

Axle Data

Gen 1

2.6, 2.3TD, 2.5TD & 2.5TDI (some) :-
front axle = 25 spline, 29mm diameter, diff = 7.25" diameter (low pinion)
rear axle = 28 spline, 30.5mm diameter, diff = 8" diameter
3.0V6 :-
front axle = 28 spline, 29mm diameter, diff = 8" diameter (low pinion)
rear axle = 28 spline, 30.5mm diameter, diff = 9" diameter

Gen 2

3.0V6 :-
same as Gen 1 except for NH & NJ auto has 7.25" diameter front diff (high pinion) NH & NJ 5sp man has 8" diameter front diff (high pinion)
2.5TDI :-
same as NH & NJ auto
3.5V6 & 2.8TDI :-
front axle = 28 spline, 29mm diameter, diff = 8" diameter (high pinion)
rear axle = 31 spline, 33.5mm diameter, diff = 9.5" diameter

Gen 3

3.5V6, 2.8TDI, 3.2DID, 3.8V6
front axle = 28 spline, 29mm diameter, diff = 8" diameter (high pinion)
rear axle = 33 spline, 36mm diameter, diff = 9.5" diameter

Gen 4
same as Gen 3

Note :- Mitsu factory Aisin manual hubs (found on some models - Gen 1 or Gen 2 base models & Tritons) are interchangeable and will retrofit to all Gen 2 models with super select.
These will not fit to a Gen 3 model as they run solid one piece hub flanges (non-removable).

That must be the GLS.

The GLX came with them as standard.

rear = NH-NL 315mm solid discs (18mm thick) single piston calipers (42.8mm pistons)
Note :- NH GL base models had rear drum brakes same as Gen 1 NE-NG
Also NK & NL GLS models have to run 16" rims to clear the bigger front rotors.

Hi,
just looking at the information on gear ratios - how do we convert what is speced to actual (not sure of the correct term) turning ratios?

EG:

1st Gear - 45/1
2nd - 28/1
(etc)

Transfer case

1st - 90/1 etc?

Is there a conversion table for this type of calculation?

Not quite sure of your question there ?
If your talking about total gearing ratio's then :-

gear ratio x t/case reduction x final drive ratio = total low range reduction

So a Gen 2 5sp 3.0 V6 Paj with a 4.875 diff ratio will have a 1st gear low range reduction of :-

3.918 (1st gear ratio) x 1.925 (t/case low range ratio) x 4.875 (diff ratio) = 36.77 : 1

In high range it will be 3.918 x 1.0 x 4.875 = 19.10 : 1

Or are you talking about km/hr per 1000 rpm in a given gear ??

Do we have any engines size-weight information?

Bitsamissin - I'm referring to the number of times the engine turns for each turn of the wheel.

According 2 your informations Frank the NL 4m40tdi 's diffs are 4.90.
OURS V26 4m40 tdi's are 4.636 original, (Just to let you know).

Yeah obviously other markets are different I started off doing this for Oz models but realize other countries had different options.

Lwb diesel 4.9
Lwb petrol 4.6
Swb petrol 4.3

Gen 1

2.6 / 2.5TD = 4.625, 4.875

Forgive me my ignorance, but could you explain to me what do you mean by "final gear ratio" and why two numbers are listed ? This is not the gear ratio of the axles, because it should be the same, right ? So what is this ?

Thanks in advance,

Peter

Yes they are the final drive (diff) ratio's that were available in those models. It should really read 4.625 or 4.875.

Frank.

Here you'll find also some tech data about pajero's.

http://www.pajero.dn.ru/pajeroii/ps.shtml

For those of you who dont know, heres the link for Jap import J Top specs. Once you get there just translate the page with Babelfish. A V23C is similar to a NH SWB soft top.

http://www.jsroot.com/02j_data/j_data.htm

Yep thats Aki's website some really good tech/mod imfo in there.
Even an article on the 2.85 gears

Can you tell me which model had 5.29 gear ratio?

Yep scroll upwards and the 5.29 imfo is there.

Hi , here some usefull info,

Pajero/Shogun MK I Technical Data



The model data will be for both Metal Top (SWB) and Wagon (LWB) specifications.

Engine displacement of 2477cc diesel and 2555 cc petrol

It will cover manual and automatic transmissions.

Unless each data specifies the model as relating to a particular body/engine size/transmission, please assume it covers all.

(This is a mere sample covering two engine variants and two body styles. For full technical data covering all Pajero models from 1983 to 1996 please go to the merchandise page for details on the Haynes Workshop Manual which is now available through the Club.)

Has anyone got a workshop manual for a 83 SWB 2.6 ltr Petrol Pajero.
I have only recently bought this vehicle but it seems that the previous owner wired up the spotties the wrong way & caused a small melt-down in some of the wiring.
Now it seems that everything else works fine but I cant seem to get any low beams. 2 wires are melted & broken & will need replacing but I need the wiring diagram to help me through this.
If anyone has the manual it would be greatly appreciated if you would be able to scan the pages refering to the electrical wiring & email them to me at cmonique@dodo.com.au

Kind regards

Does anyone have information on Technical/service manuals for a 2000 Triton??
Haven't seen anything around in the range of manuals..
Thanks

This site http://www.motorpowerinc.com/specs/spec-mitsu.html has some engine specs for the Pajero & Triton 2.6 (4G54) and the Triton 2.4 (4G64.) It's a US site, so everything is imperial.
