We didn't end up adding the timer. From memory we put in the top quality plugs and they seemed to last fine. I honestly can't remember if we got these from Repco or BNT??

Thanks for that. Can put back together and get ready for 3rd round.

Cheers however Auto so that won't work. Went out to shed to get something and decided to pop the top off the xfer box. Was easier than I thought and only a few cuts on hands. Looks like previous owner has modified it so it can't be changed (lucky we didn't try to force to much). My guess is it would ...

Cheers was trying to avoid removing top panel as can't get to it without removing box or using Mr grinder to modify floor.

Was hoping someone could tell if high or low based on the angle of the nob on top of xfer box. If in low don't need to change.

Hoping that some of your Landcruiser guys will know the answer to this. We are trying to work out if our trials truck is in high or low range. There is no leaver on ours however the nob on the top of the xfer box is in the same location as per below (i.e. the flat part is running side to side and ...

Looking forward to next weekend. First time back in the drivers seat for a while.

The way the weather is at the moment there could even be some snow to play in.

Was an awesome day and seemed to run nice and smooth.

Cheers for Skid and all the crew for organising and to the marshalls

Will work out a freight price and get back to you as well as track down the owner.

Hi

As the title suggests selling a SNR Tie Rod and Ends on behalf of a fellow ORE member.

These things rock and would suggest they are almost indestructible (as suspect other parts of vehicle would break first)

Listed on trademe however feel free to make an offer and I can hand it on

Good luck with that. I phoned pretty much every wrecker and they all laughed and said good luck with that. Also had two of them put searches on their parts trader and nothing came back. Apparently very hard to find. Next best option (apart from trying to make one) was $800 new through Nissan. In the ...

Cheers guys and fired you both PM's

Hi just wondering if anyone has a flywheel off a TD42T that they may want to sell??

The short block we picked up to replace our TD42 was an auto and having problems finding a manual flywheel as the TD42 flywheel won't swap over.

Stu

Cheers we were thinking coolant drain as well. Phoned wrecker we got the engine from and it turns out the hole is for the oil return feed from the turbo. Therefore the engine is out of a factory turbo safari. Anyone see any issues with bolting a head off a non turbo safari onto a turbo safari? We ...

Ok so looks like we have melted a piston so have tracked down a short block as the head on our one looks ok. Finally got the 2 short blocks side by side and have noticed on the one we purchased that there are a few differences. One of the differences is the new one has a threaded hole on the ...

Ouch talked to engine rebuilder and approx $6K assuming no major damage to rebuild. Does this seem about right? Can it be done on the cheap (i.e. pull apart and just replace what needs replacing as assume rebuilder must replace everything?) 2nd hand ones on trademe $1700 or wreckers around $2500 ...

Hi Looks like big end bearings gone on our TD42. Can hear the piston hitting the block and then after removing sump found bits of filings in the oil. Has anyone got a spare engine floating around that they want to sell?? Suspect head should still be ok therefore just short block would be sweet ...

Hi We purchased one of the cheap Chinese bikes for our 8 year old boys birthday and within a couple of hours all sorts of bits started falling off it so back to the shop it went. We now of course are down a birthday present and need to come up with something. Most of these on trademe are around the ...

yeah that will fit fine, I've got a nissan pto winch on my 40 series with 35m of 10mm synthetic rope on the drum Cheers, much room left on the drum?? Go to 40m?? Yeah what sadam said, I have a nissan pto on my 70 with that exact rope on it, could have fitted another 10m easy. Good rope so far ...

Hi

Have a mate who is looking at putting 10mm Dyneema Winch Rope on his PTO winch and wants to know how much he can fit on the drum before he will run into problems??

This is the stuff he is looking at getting

Cheers in advance

Love the bit where the person in the car in front goes to run away and then decides best they run back and shut their door.

i only got one pic but i dont think stu wants it posted around the place yet Yip Stu told me to tell you that he wants it posted.!! Come on Pete, once a pic has been mentioned on ORE, it has to be posted up!! It's ORE law!! And when it does surface I would like to point out that technically I wasn ...

Cheers the one I ended up with from Appco is 32x44x9 so think will run with that.

Would have thought given we are in the computer world that they could just bring up a picture of the diff and all the parts would be clearly labeled.

got em from bnt. guy reckoned bout $7 each. bloody cheap. will find out in morn when pick em up Hi any idea as to part number?? Trying to track one down for our truck and Appco are having problems. They have measured the size off the one I pulled out but it was a bit squashed and dented etc. The ...

Some photo evidence of the wire. (sorry about quality) First picture is after we removed the wire that was actually around the wheel and then managed to tow it backwards up a hill http://i414.photobucket.com/albums/pp223/stuearle/Wire/4.jpg Wheel off now a real big mess to untangle, luckily one of ...

DaveM wrote:What hubs were you using?

Just the standard auto hubs. Should have added that to the questions, what hubs should I put on??

As per usual when its time to go home, just go home the easy way. Figured why take the easy track when I could drive down a hill through the bog and back up the other side. Thought should be a good test for the new front lock-right. Of course didn't make it and ended up stuck in the bog at the ...

Went on the rec for this yesterday. There is some cool farmland that the trip goes through with some gullies that will have a bit for everyone. Didn't have the simex's on so couldn't get up the steep hills (but gave them a crack of course). With a bit of luck there will be a big dumping of snow for ...
