This is nearly related. I to have the SR20de fwd with cable kick down. Just wondering what you used for the out put of the fwd diff. Its pretty tight in there for uni joints, its really the front one that runs past the engine crank case,or can we use the original CV? I'm running Hilux drive shafts a...

Im no expert, but in general terms an automotive power steering pump and like a Toyota Camry power rack can be used in conjunction with a orbital steering control valve from a fork lift, tractor or boat as long as the orbital unit has a thinner spacer in the body. Rather than a thicker spacer as thi...

yeah my 3.5 pajero is 6.636. But yes the 3.0 pajero is 4.875 which looks like the better option for me.

I'm looking at building a front axle for a Pajero based off road club truck. If I use a Safari diff as like this http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/nissan/diffs-axles/auction-913370037.htm could I use a Nissan H233B Diff head or even the gear set. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/L...

PM sent Yeah so doing the 1600 repower. have already swapped over to the single port 8 valve injected head (on to the 1300 block) so the electrics are all done. runs very well. The 1600 shout block hydro-locked in a river a couple of years ago. Just got the holes in the crank case welded up. Will tr...

I would be keen on a 1300 sump and oil pick up. (Also need a conrod from a 1600 8 valve.)

I have a 8 valve with a leg out of bed. Might of picked up. Dont know. was still running.

Thanks for that Pedro. I removed the diff and let a mechanic frend look it over. He reconds that its all good. new seals and bobs me uncle. To me thers alot of play in the axle / diff bearing, and spider gear, but im not a mechanic, thankfully. Cheers.

Hi all. Ive got a mechanical type problem. 1994 paj 3.5. got a wobbly cv shaft with oil leeking from left side diff seal. Have removed cv axel shaft and diff seal. The bearing seems fine but the cv axle is loose inside. looks like theres a collar that the axel runs through, which is where the play i...

There is a cross over model, which has the J20 motor but still has the suspension of the original Vitara/Escudo. I think it is about 1995. Look for the 2L on the back door and as long as it is not a Grand Vitara you may be close. Hopefully all the tried and true Vitara suspension mods may still work...

Hi all. I have a mate who has just brought a 1996 Mitsubishi challenger. He’s not looking to do much with it just recovery hooks and an extra set of wheels suitable for mud. Tires at the moment are 265/70/15. What is the biggest mud tire he can fit? 31x10.5x15?

Cheers MIKE.

ONOescudo

Hay hers a thought. Could you take a picture of the bracket that holds up the right side of the air inlet pipe that’s across the top of the motor. I haven’t got one. Might make it a bit easier to fab one up or get the correct unit as I have been sent the wrong bracket.

Cheers MIKE.

I too had the same sender broken doing my motor conversion. Mud Bits sent 2 as there seems to be different hose sizes, the one I need has a 4mm pipe and the one I wont be using has a 6mm pipe, which you are welcome to have. It’s a Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor so sates the Haynes Manual. L...

OK. Spent some time trying to use the original Escudo fuel pump in a 10-liter tank but found the steel pressure tube had a split in it. All above-mentioned parts rubbish in favor of a VL commodore fuel pump. Had conflicting reports about needing a low pressure lift pump to supply the high-pressure V...

Yeah but on a budget. Trying to use what I got to get me going. Have done more research and comp ratio should be the same. Will get bigger valves with the 1600 head, slightly more torque, and rid of the dodgy carburetor. May need to swap over top cam sprocket. Still need to know what head gasket to ...

So I got a SJ413 (off road only) with the usual carburetor and poor ignition problems. Iv removed the head together with TBI from my old blown G16a (chucked a leg out of bed). Head looks ok, no crash marks even though number 4 piston has been doing its own thing. Hopefully this combo will work. But ...

I know 1 came out of a running vehicle. Can’t remember whots the story with the other. But all bits have been in dry storage ever since. Was going to convert my Escudo to Auto for better offroading but never did.

Home after 5 or 6 pm most days, or most weekends.

instead of using the camber correction bolts i was thinking of slotting the strut holes to bring the camber back in, has anyone tried this, what did you think? Thanks. Yep. Once you are happy with the amount of camber, these washers can be welded on. Use heavy washers. Make it look nice and paint. ...
