Re: Safari Lifting
Definitely extend brake lines, Panhard rod/s will want adjusting....has been so long since I did mine I can't remember if I had to shorten it or lengthen it. Steering wheel will go out of whack, just adjust your steering rod ends to correct it. You may need gearbox spacers for the vibrations...being...

Re: 15x10 Rims
Lowering your pressures increases the foot print of the tyre and therefore more/better traction. Good luck in not listening to experienced guys and 'reinventing the wheel' ...xcuse the pun :/.

Re: 15x10 Rims
That's the problem with tyres 12.5" wide....recommended tyre manufacturer rim size legally is 8.5" - 10". No one makes 8.5" so unless getting rims made to suit most go 10's. You'll be over looking cool after you've popped beads a few times, it's why there's so many 2nd hand 10&qu...

Re: Northlander '94 Safari turbo
My snorkel is 4" all the way to the turbo, includes custom airbox 4" in/out obviously.
Imagine breathing through a drinking straw....then breath through a bit of 25mm pipe. That's the same effect I had in going 4" induction. Massive difference.

Re: 24v Saf alternator options?protect from mud?
Ok, what you want is an alternator from an Isuzu 4HF1. It has the vacuum pump on the back, is 24v and 50amps, it's a direct fit to a Nissan TD42. If I remember correctly it has a 3 groove pulley and I cut that 3rd groove off with a 1mm grinder blade. It will fit...mine didn't because i've got 4"...

Re: Noobie questions - suspension and diff locks gq y60
If it's a 1999 then you have a GU or Y61 and they didn't come out as Mavericks. Only Patrols/Safari's. Is it lwb or swb?.
Can you put a pic up pls?

Re: vehicle transport between north and south island
We recently had a car brought down to Chch from Rotorua, when making enquiries we found that one guy owns most of the companies so doesn't really matter who you use.
We used Captain Transporter and car was delivered without any issues whatsoever.
