OK, likely a long shot. But, if anyone has a winch bar for a 96 Surf, or maybe hilux? (KZN185) laying about gathering dust in a shed. I'd like one. There are a few around new, but I'm a bit cheap Not fussed on design, style, condition etc. Winch attached would be fine too lol. Would just like to be ...

Ok, I'm on the scrounge again... *PLEASE NOTE, CAR IN QUESTION IS BMW BUT LANDROVERS USED THE IDENTICAL DIESEL ENGINE* The number 4 injector in my "92 BMW 525tds Touring has developed a leak that can't be repaired so I need a "new" one. It is the number 4 injector which has the sensor/sender/wire on ...

Cheers man

That's ok!

I probably should have listed the model, it's a Superwinch PM 3000 so just has two poles on one end... like this but sans the plastic cap on the end haha

Sweet, will have a bit of an experiment, paid bugger all for it so no great loss, if it doesn't work/doesn't work after I mess with it it isn't a biggie haha

Out in Henderson.

Hmmm... sounds like it might be an idea just to keep an eye out for a more complete setup. As I say it is just for a random project so nothing urgent

Just the bare winch I think... I'm assuming the solenoid bolts to the two small posts that come out the side of the "non cable" side?

mudlva wrote:you can make a switch up by using a momentary on.off.on switch.
positive to common and load to either solenoid

Ok... will try and figure that out haha, I'm electronically retarded

Hey all, I randomly purchased an old Superwinch 3000 for a crane project (don't ask haha) it came without any cabling/controllers etc. Looking at some images online it looks like they just bolt to the little terminals on one side? dual cable to battery and controller kind of setup. Anyway, I have no ...

Sold a parts wreck I had sitting around and have almost decided I need a little buggy for fanging up and down the beach over summer, fishing trips etc. Would need to be cheap, sub 500 bucks ideally (but could swap plus cash for the right thing, see below) and have an aframe to get it around ...

Y'all probably have seen this little guy if you trawl the Lada subforum... so 3 of you have seen it lol, anyway link to build/info here: m or some pictures as most of the pic links in the thread seem to have broken :/ http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a360/P_Star/Phone%20Pics/IMG_20130713_154922.jpg ...

So this thing still goes, I have only driven it forward and backward to mow under it. Still needs the front diff filled with oil, a new cv boot and potentially a new bracket thing as described above. I'm sick of the sight of it however and don't use it enough to justify it's existence... Someone ...

Cheers guys Yeah, there are a fair few of the ex High Octane team involved. Subscribe and enjoy we will be a fair few online eps coming up plus (hopefully) you will see it via more conventional media next year ... here's a new ep for you

A new project I am working on, no 4x4 content (yet!) but some of you may enjoy... crank up the quality and the volume

Calling it a trailer is probably a bit of a big call. But the basics are there and with a bit of a rethink and some (lots of) welding it could be a legit thing I think Single axle, massive long draw bar, loads of steel, weighs a ton... layout probably needs a rethink/some bracing/strengthening as it ...

yeah as I say I think mine was a crappy mix (my fault) not the paint... probably could have sprayed it straight outta the can or close to it... I know for next time sturdy paint though... looks good too

yep ill try ad some once i remember how. the americans use rustoleum its an enamel. i used rust guard by white knight. its an enamel aswell but a diferant type, might me epoxy? anyway with rustoleum you need to thin it down heaps and do 5 to 8 coats. but rust guard rolls on and drys well thinned ...

This thing was on trademe recently (I was trying to buy it but the guy was terribly at responding to messages)

I'm sure it was west auckland... had a piston for a gear knob and a bullet casing for a key?

Looked in fairly ok nick iirc, will keep an eye on the auction

Yeah just being a cheeky s#!t really haha, hopefully everything sells... a bunch of cool stuff on this beast/shame it isn't selling complete actually... would have been a monster!

But still.. circumstances are what they are

"at that point all bits that haven't had a fair offer will be toss'd into scrap"

Will pay ya scrap value for any leftovers lol

Ahhh ok, nah don't really have funds/skills to build one and the A-frame works ok for now unless something complete pops up for cheap enough. Chur though:D

Just trailer in general... would love car size but garden variety is more in my price range I suspect :/

Edit: Whatcha got?

just looking for a spare for the Lada as the set I bought were only 4... they look like this: http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a360/P_Star/Phone%20Pics/IMG_20130725_135321.jpg and are a 7.50 x 16 http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a360/P_Star/Phone%20Pics/IMG_20130725_135312.jpg Would prefer ...

Yeah... it is welded currently... just that my welding I don't trust all that much haha.. feels and looks strong enough would just rather have a fresh one and couldn't see how it detaches/attaches when it was apart :/

Ok so I need to get the CV Boot thing replaced which is fine but I also need to get a new bracket... the one that bolts to the driver side of the front diff where the shaft bolts up Does that come as part of the package if i buy a new CV for it... or is it separate? I just can't figure out how it ...

Thanks some epic friends the Lada is back in one piece, drivable, and at my house after mouldering on the driveway of the old flat for months... turns out I wasn't JUST a retard, it was kinda more of a 2 man job fortunately enough Chris is 1.5 men and my .5 made up the balance... the miracle is it ...

Yup, putting it back together and dragging it to the new house this weekend so it will be all running... make me an offer I can't refuse

half pie contemplating selling this, I have so much going on at the moment that I can't really justify the time it needs, haven't even had a chance to bolt the new front diff in and now my old flatmates are moving so I need to put it back together and move it.. Anyone want to make an offer? give me ...

Ok, tuning seems to be more or less sussed although it still sometimes plays up a little when cold... anyway, it is close and isn't chewing through gas. Anyway, I had a man come around to swap out the broken windscreen... however there is too much rust in it for him to reattach (safely) the new ...

Ok, sounds like it has likely never been on the road so if someone wants a compliance or offroad job go at it... too much effort for me. Guy reckons (and is gonna find out) if it has ever been through vinning but it doesn't sound like it.. Still, good price, worth it for the parts, I just don't want ...
