Re: Wanted: PTO in cab selector lever

Thanks to all who pm'ed me offering their spare levers and bits. I got a bee in my bonnet. I turned the garage upside down tonight and found the blasted thing in a box hidden in the corner (the safe place I put it).

Re: Supercharge TD42

Thanks for clearing that up flyingbrick. Maybe the previous owners put reduction gears in my GQ or something because in low 4 going down a steep incline I have to accelerate to move faster than a crawl, it's a strange feeling but I didn't want to lose the control it offers. Still need to give her ...

Re: Supercharge TD42

Apparently you lose your engine braking when you supercharge as it's "boosting" all the time.

I did a fair bit of research (read weeks of trawling forums) on this and finally decided that when I manage to scrape the cash together I'd go turbo for my Saf.

I was hooning around on the dirt road between Alfredton and Tinui and heard this godawful clanking/rattling like I had picked up some wire on the front wheel that finally gave way. Changing to 2wd gave me a clicking sound from the front left which went away after I engaged 4wd then disengaged ...

Re: PTO shear pins

M8 50mm galvanised bolts for the rear, M4 50mm zinc plated ones for the front from Bunnings @ around 50c each. They work a treat, easily pulled my mates saf out of the mud and are easy to fit.

I carry a bunch of them with me in case they shear off.

Re: PTO shear pins

I heard you could just use 4" nails in the front instead of a shear pin, easier to fit :idea:

Not sure if it's the greatest plan though...
