Thanks wjw

I gave them a call and they were very helpful, they do not keep any second-hand springs but not too bad an option if I cannot find any second-hand ones.

I am looking for around 8 coil springs to seat a rock shaking table on. If anyone has any laying around let me know. 027 2044 866 I'm in Christchurch

Looks like a cool truck, I'm looking for a project though seems like most of the work had been done on it.

Not sure really, I was just going to see what comes up.
I intend this to be road legal at the finish and more of a work hack then a bush truck so would be happy to pay more for a tidy one.

Did you have something in mind?

Cheers Yael

I'm hoping to find complete rolling body with live plates.

Thanks Coxsy.

Do you mean this one http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/nissan/accessories/auction-784825438.htm
Not sure how I missed that one.

It looks good except that it is de-reg.

Hi ORE

I'm after a SWB Safari or Patrol with live plates to convert to a ute.
No engine is fine, anything considered.

Also looking for a TD30 Gear box.

I'm located in wellington but am prepared to travel to pick up.

Thanks

I'm planning on doing it, I'm not sure that I should be though. 1000km hard racing must take its toll on the truck, but a poor man once told me you can't put a price on your hobbies

Unimog axles up for sale, these would feature in my ultimate build.

I've got one, injectors poo'd themselves not long after I bought it at 160,000, it's now done 210,000 and I'm thinking I should upgrade sooner rather then later, it wouldn't be worth fixing it if it blew in a year or so's time.

Finished my new ground anchor this weekend.

Now if only I had a gear box I would be able to test it.

Took my truck out for a bash yesterday and left my spare tire out there. Somewhere between the playground where the creek comes out (now blocked off with logs) and the steel fence just before cable bay. It's a 35 inch silverstone on bead lock and I would be stoked to get it out. Liquid reward for ...

New king pin bearings also made a big improvement on my zuk.

Engine I as looking at has sold, too slow so still on the hunt.

I don't know, there is a few question marks over it. Engine for $4200 is complete and has half the km on it, four years younger to and it has a warranty.

Ah I'm no expert but we know that it has been bore washed. Not sure of how much damage has been done but will have a closer look when we take it out.

I talked to a couple of people about crate motors today and for me they are too expensive. I figure that the LS1 is a modern engine and having a few k's on the clock shouldn't really matter. Bang for buck the LS1 is looking good. Not sure how bad the 305 is but it doesnt have much oil pressure. Give ...

Yeah I read that build thread, very cool truck. I think we will go with a LS1 but want to explore the crate engine option. Finding one for a reasonable price might take patience though. Only cheapish ones on TM at the moment have high km's or damage, best price from a wrecker has been $4200 without ...

Awesome tip thanks Crash bandicoot

theres been afew conversions done with them.i think they have a LQ engine code.theres afew importers that might be able to source one for you from the states.i think they are from an escalade.theres heaps of options with crate motors aslong as you have deep pockets Haha yeah deep pockets but very ...

Ah hadn't heard tha about the crate engine, big reason for getting one would of been not inheriting some else's issues ! Would deffinatly get one with a warranty after hearing that. Cast iron LS would be sweet, they are rear stumped to from what I read, would jump at one if it came along at a ...

Hi I have recently bought a winch truck with a 305 with throtle body injection. Unfortunately the 305 is stuffed, on the plus sife it means it's time for an upgrade. The two options I'm looking into are either a LS1 or crate small block. Tough decision for me so I thought I would put it to ORE, some ...

Found a set of paj alloys that work, $200 from Motex with good AT's on them.
Thanks

Its a winch truck. 82 Hilux, shortened, chev 305, patrol diffs, coils, locker, 35" silverstones etc
Guys and girls in Nelson may know it.

It's a little different from the zuk I'm used to.

Cheers UBZ, me thinks that freight might be a killer though. Good luck with the clear out

Yeah I was quite confident that they would have something but they don't at the moment. Best option so far is Pajero rims and tires for $200 from Motex.
