very nice truck you have done a real nice job. i am moving back to the home of land rover and will be going back to defenders, more than likely a 90 defender as it wont be a tourer.

muskie

those clutch alignment tools available on trade me for $10 bucks. i have just packed up my whole house ready to move overseas so i have no idea where mine is otherwise i would have given you it as i will never use it again.... they are plastic but work well. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts...

all the strength has been removed from that body mount, shocking.

muskie

they obviously want to keep them judging from the way over the top pricing

muskie

standard single pot ones with very good rotors, $80 for the complete set, you will have to collect from Hamilton though. i rebuilt them put them on the truck then replaced with twin pot calipers and discs.

muskie

sold and collected.....cash destined for a defender 90 build back in the freezing shed in the uk...... You're moving back then bud? yeah mate, its got to that revolving conversation so need to go back for the wifes sake.. just waiting for the house to sell......i am happy as long as i can have 4x4 ...

i would be checking rear caliper for a seal leak personally as a priority (will usually leak directly onto tyre when parked on the flat), then look for ''other issues'' get the oil that has leaked on you finger and smell it, there is a clear difference between diff oil and brake fluid. caliper seal ...

that was a bloody good buy, i had that on my watch list.

muskie

i have owned around 12 safaris/patrols, and driven a few others.. some felt tight and drove really well with good pulling power others felt like slugs, in fact i am going to say i have never driven two the same, they all vary and you cant always guarentee the kms so engine may be more tired than ini...

muskie

ive had efs, raw, and tough dog, didnt rate the raw ones but efs and raw are both very similar, i prefer efs and have them in both my trucks.

muskie

just strip the thing down and rebuild it, its probably due for a rebuild, easy and basic. new seals are off the shelf, use the correct oil, its like treacle, i have some. where are you? you can down load a pic off the net to rebuild or take pics as you strip.

muskie

use the correct oil or it will cost you, and just hope the correct oil has been used before if its high kms...

muskie

i have a set of the pipework thats needed for a manual conversion, goes across the firewall with the clutch bleed block all the way to the slave cyl etc if anyone needs it, has the black plastic vacuum chamber also.. $20 cant post it so collect in hamilton.

very odd how all swb are different, friday i replaced both rear uj's on my bush truck for $112 but there was nothing wrong with them, i still have a vibe even with 10mm g/box spacers at around 90kms from the rear, i cant think of anything else so it must be tyres..... coxsy i am glad you asked this ...

muskie

i think this is a glow plug timer/relay issue can anyone confirm please, gq y60 td42, sometimes when i turn the key the glow plug light comes on for just a second or so even first thing in the morning and takes a bit of winding over to start, other times its the normal 3 or so seconds and starts nor...

muskie

Damn!! glad to see you will all be ok,

muskie

you might struggle with standard height stuff, could always put in a 2'' lift, you can run your standard shocks with 2'' (if not going offroad)....i doesnt hardly make any difference if your towing if thats your concern. there are heaps of places that do springs surely someone will do std in nz?? au...

muskie
