Re: 1995 KZN130 Surf front windscreen defogger stopped worki

If it uses the same system as the LN130 it could be the cable between the servo and the flaps. Mine kinks everytime it moves so I just reach under the dash while driving and manually move it once I've hit the button on the dash. If you look up under the dash on the drivers side there should be some ...

Re: Leaking bighorn

Smith and Smith now carry the warrenty over multiple owners. They had it on fair go and they changed their policy. Not sure what would happen now that some else has had a go tho.

Re: Balance belt fell off

I've gone and ordered a new cam-belt, balance belt and tensioner, this time they will be genuine parts. Hopefully will get them on Tuesday and fit them during the week.

Re: Balance belt fell off

Both shafts seem to spin freely, its just the tensioner that seems a bit stiff.

Balance belt fell off

Hi, I drive a 89 2.5TD Pajero, yesterday I felt the engine vibrating a lot more than normal so I took the cover off the cam-belt and found that the balance belt was extremely loose. First I thought it was broken but I couldn't pull it out so I have stripped down the front and found it is intact but ...

Hard spot in steering

Hi I've just changed the steering idler as it failed its wof on that. And now when I turn left it feels like there is a hard spot for a bit then goes back to normal. It happens right at the start of the turn only and I can't feel it when I return the wheel to center. It only happens at higher speeds ...

Loose Rear End

Hi When I turn corners it feels like the rear axle is loose and trying to pull the car into a slide, but it doesn't feel like the tires are slipping. It sort of feels like the axle is turning slightly kind of like 4 wheel steering. If you get what I mean. The car is an 89 SWB leaf sprung Pajero. I ...

Re: Rear Tow Hook

The brackets and hook is now mounted. I ended up having to buy shorter bolts as the hook bracket is thin than the towbar bracket. This is it mounted http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af110/nickfalconer/IMAGE_009.jpg And this is with the rear door open above the hook. You can't tell in the photo but ...

Re: Rear Tow Hook

To attach the bracket to the car is there are specified torque for the bolts or just do them up tight. And should I be replacing the bolts or will the current ones be fine?

Rear Tow Hook

Hi I have a pajero and I am going to mount tow hooks front and rear. I've got the front figured out. But on the rear I cant mount it directly to the bottom of the chassis rails because of the leaf spring shackle mounts. And on either side there is the rear cross member. So I was thinking I can ...

Re: Rated Tow Hooks

Thanks for the photos. I will probably be able to do the front one with some cutting of the bash plate, but the rear one I will have to find somewhere else as that is where the spring attaches to the chassis. I was thinking for the rear I will have to go to a tow bar shop and get a bracket made up ...

Rated Tow Hooks

Hi

I want to mount tow hooks to the front and rear of my pajero but I don't know where I should put them or how to mount them correctly. Any photos would be great.

It is a 89 SWB Pajero leaf sprung rear.

Thanks
