12v acc sockets and door mirror retract no go, on 91 Paj

The 12volt acc power sockets, both front and rear no longer have power to them. And also the electric mirror retract in and retract out feature no longer works. Unsure if the faults are connected to each other. Power sockets annoy but the mirror retract feature is something I use a lot in the sticks...

Re: Rear diff locker

Test as NJV6 recommends. You would be able to hear the compressor pump for a very short period of time, they only pump to 8psi. The air inlet pipe is normally open .
The speed at which it clicks in is safety feature for the diff and is not really recommended to take away from it.

Push the set button once then drive in a circle clockwise direction and then drive in a anticlockwise direction circle.
It doesnt matter which direction you do first.

The one on Trade are very good and more so if you have an import (often have extra features NZ models didn't have).
The book covers all engine types including wagon or short wheel base.

Possible the noise problem could be related to the fact that one of the gears that has been replaced is a smaller gear diameter and less teeth and there for more prone to whine against its counterpart.

Just guessing mind.

Diff ratio change over in NH.

Is it possible to change from a 4.875 front diff (NH 3.0 v6 5 speed manual)
to a 5.285 front diff ( 2.5 Diesel )And the rear as well.

Wanting to change (lower) ratios for better gearing for larger tyres.

not very sure on the business of the splines etc.
