truck sold
hope the new bloke likes it as much as I did

Ok it sounds like the auto hubs are working but could be a one off might not work all the time. What year is it? Solid axle will look like this under the front. Where abouts are you, if you want to sell I could be keen. :D cool thanks ill try and get under it today for a look. ive got dirty big dum...

thanks fullas. how much am I looking at to change to manual hubs? I literally have no spare cash (two babies are sucking me dry). The 4wd light on the button has never worked - the actual bulb is fine something else must be cocked - I tried looking for a line/switch on the front gearbox and transfer...

auto hubs. and has the push button on the dash, or goes in (used to!) straight away if selecting the low ratio box.

Hey, Ive recently had some issues with the rugger not going into 4wd. being not very mechanical / sparkyish I don't really know what to check... first time it came up I was up in woodhill, travelling along the forestry road there was suddenly a bit of a rattle from underneath, bit of stop and go lat...

hmm nah sorry mines a little over, just on 195. id be interested to know if a oil change helps out, I might be doing mine soon anyways.

cheers for the tip marco. geez they have a lot of stuff for them over there.

hey zuk ive sent an email to a UK supplier for K&N who has some in stock and asked for a price. if its a good price I could grab an extra one for you if your keen?

Hey has anyone with a rugger run their truck without the little rubber fin thing on their airfilter? What is its purpose exactly - is it supposedly creating some sort of 'cyclonic' flow of air? As far as I can see it merely seems to block half of the filter surface area. Im looking at investing in a...

Hi Jeff, Double posts can be frowned upon, I'm sure one of the mods will point you in the right direction. Unfortunately not to many people were smart enough to buy these great little wagons so parts can be a hassle. My front grill is pretty beaten up too but I have secured it against the broken cl...

G'day. I've got one of these too. Mine's a tin top swb. Yours looks in better shape. Really tough little wagons but not too comfy to travel in. I drove mine from Kerikeri to New Plymouth a few months ago and ouch! I recommend you take the intake manifold off and clean it, then block the egr (assumi...

Hi hows it goin Pretty new to the site, i have just got myself a 95 rugger, and found that the front grill is only just hanging on as most of the plastic brackets have broken. Would anyone have a decent one they'd like to sell or maybe point me in the right direction? ive been scoping trademe but do...

Gudday ive just joined up after getting my first ever 4x4. Ive got a '95 Daihatsu Rugger which seems to have been pretty well looked after but still has plenty of scratches. Not really got much experience with this scene, spent most of my time in commodores over the past however many years. Keen to ...
