Re: Project PAJ (Kermit)

Re: The Gen 4 Paj
Hi, yes I do still have it. The spacer is to clear the front brakes. They are a bit noisier on the road compared to anything with a chassis, even an old second gen pajero is quieter but you do hear more engine noise in an older one. I wouldnt go as far as unplesant but its all tyre noise. What sort ...

Check the gen 3 MCC mounting points, pretty sure they use to tow points so you can no longer use them.

Glenthorne seem to be the main access. Fanghill is said to be a right old dump of a hut but some decent canpsites not far away.

Re: surpintine
I mark where we turn going to these places and the closest one I have seems to be on the junction of deep creek road & Linnburn Runs Road. Yes that’s coming from the old Dunstan trail end or Pataeroa / Paerau end, the road from millers flat is the lake Onslow road that turns into deep creek road.

Re: surpintine
There is one deep swift crossing which I suspect will be impassable around lake Onslow before the Serpentine turnoff. I won’t say you won’t get through as you may well do but just a heads up.
See screenshot below.

Re: Serpentine
Its boggy in places, if you can't see the bottom of some of the waterholes perhaps best avoid them - they have decent ruts in the bottom. Id go through on my own cautiously but then again I know the track.

Re: The Gen 4 Paj
The Ultragauge has been brilliant, I find I use the Speedo on it more than the dials. If Your Jeep has an OBD2 plug then it'll work.
And yea, it was never going to remain standard!

Re: surpintine
Yes its a local track, and its Serpentine . There are 3 was to get to it, but the one from Millers Flat is a bit rougher, probably pay to take a 2nd vehicle.

Re: Porsche Off -- A Cayenne Offroad Project
Those with late model pajeros with no chassis use the factory side step mounting spots for rock sliders and they seem strong enough as the frame structure is very solid at that point.

Re: Pajero 2007 3 door 3.0 litre petrol auto - timing belt
90000 is a major service with all the oils but I think $2100 is still a complete rip!! I’ll have a look in my service book today and see when the belt is recommended from factory.
