Pto winch setup

My PTO unit on the side of my gq gearbox only had sealer between it and the gearbox. Should it have a gasket or not? :)

Safari seats

Hi
Has anybody out there replaced their gq front seats for something different with a bit more support. I don't won't a full on race seat but a bucket that will drop in with not too much trouble.
I have a swb so won't a seat that flicks forward so passengers can get in the back.

Re: conveyor belt wtd

I got mine from a conveyor belting place in East Tamaki, I think Greenmount Drive. It was an off cut, cost me about $20.00 a few years ago.

Re: Whats a safari transfercase worth

doddzee wrote:$200 is about right, I have a gearbox and transfer for sale $550.



Hey Doddzee, if you don't sell that gearbox soon I might be keen, I am pulling mine out to do bearings but if it is too expensive to do might be better if I bought a good second hand one.

Re: Have you got a hot 12v compressor?

I have one for pumping up my tyres, it gets really hot at the fitting and even the air hose close to the compressor gets really hot. When mine is hot I leave it out of its bag afterwards and away from everything else till it cools down.
