Re: new in hamilton

I dont have an exposed A Pilar to fix anything to? How have other terrano owners fitted theirs? The door surround covers the whole pillar. The only way to lower it would be to to buy/get a stainless one made so it can support itself somehow? Haha so im a bit cheap!

Re: Q32 Overheating

Had no luck with only changing the thermostat, so just bought a heavy duty radiator from Turbo Desiel Speacialist Hamilton. Cost me an arm and leg.

Q32 Overheating

I have a 1990 Terrano auto with some overheating issues. It has a reconditioned Q32 Diesel, brand new radiator (after market but same dimensions as standard Q32 came with).
