Re: Navara difflock

The odd d21 navara has rear diff lock. They use the larger h230 diff not the c200 that's common in navaras. Have a look-see underneath, you'll easily see the vacuum solenoid if it has it. Plus should be a switch on the dash too

Re: Air Conditioning Bearings - Terrano TD27T 1992

It can be done on the vehicle. Bearing is about $40 (nz). I made a simple puller, and put a thread the 3 holes in the clutch plate to m5 and use puller to pull those. If plate is on real tight then you may need to thread holes to m6. But if checkerheads right that the centres threaded to remove it'l...

Its simple enough to run one turbo either one side with pipe around from other side, or centrally with pipes from both manifolds. Good luck mixing a big and a small turbo as twins.
