A few months ago i bought a 98 GU 4.5 in perfect condition with 116,000km's on the clock, snorkel and towbar for $13,300. I am another $2000 out of pocket after putting it on LPG which means a grand...

I rang an auto specialist shop this morning and the guy said, don't worry, and that i would have to continue crunching it for a couple of months before i would do any damage. He also said, don't...

I will find out when i drain the oil silver, thanks.

Thanks Bigrig, like i said everthing is changing smoothly now so hopefully all is ok.

Nup, not revving the engine at all Bob, are you talking about putting yours in neutral in the transfer case, not the gearbox ?? On the visor of my car it clearly states that you should not hesitate...

The car is an auto, the gearbox was in neutral and was stationary with the engine running. As i originaly posted the problem was that i hesitated in neutral (between low 4x and high 4x) with the...

Thanks, i did not shift on the fly, it was all stationary, but sounded bad. lol.

Rip'n'shred, i was stationary but paused in neutral when changing between low 4 and high 4 and back again. Thanks nissannewby.

Hey belzi82, can you describe exactly what you did ? how many times etc ?

I'm not sure exactly how the transfer case operates, should i change the tranny oil as well or just transfer case ?? Mudrunner, there is no noise at all and everything is changing fine and the bike...

I took my just bought 98 Auto 4.5GU out for the 1st time today and i was changing from 4 wheel high range to low range and it was grinding badly between changes i tried pulling it in quickly a few...

The best truck is always the last one you own. Oh yeah, i own a GU so they must be better.

How many of you guys are currently running the ring mixer gas system on a GU 4.5 and have you had any head problems or other issues with it ?? I am looking for feedback from those of you who actually...

I should have read your reply more closely the 1st time jimako, what you say makes complete sense. The middle position on the button simply selects either HOLD or POWER automaticaly but would...

I had the front wheels balanced again by a different shop who have a better system for the Nissan (called it Nissan fingers ?) and it is better again. I can only just notice the wobble know so i will...

I've had the wheels balanced and it has definately improved things.

I've tried my switch and the only selection that seems to make an ounce of difference is the hold position. If i select that it hold 2nd gear when you take off (for slippery roads etc) ?? Why you...

Sounds like lotsa fun fletch.

Ok thanks for the feedback, i will try one thing at a time and see how i go. Are you guys saying that you have had the same problem as me ?? Meaning that the wobble is there sometimes and not others...

I have a 98 GU and it has the Nissan steering wobble which i "after reading through lots of threads" have discovered seems to be very common. Mine comes in at about 90 km's an hour and disapears at...

Thanks all

Just wondering if anyone has been to Harrys Hut somewhere near Kin Kin (Cooloolah coast) i think ? I have heard it is easy 4 wheel driving and you can camp there, can anyone give me some info on what...

Hey Norplane,i know how you feel. I just bought a 98 Patrol and am going through the process of trying to learn everything i can. Oddly enough, i also live in Caboolture.

You could politely ask the Sarge if he could get a real job where he doesn't have to hassle people who aren't criminals ?? You could also point out that he would then fit in better with the humans...

Thanks, but too late. It is already done and mine was the main seal (no trans fluid leaking) but as you said it would have been good if the seals you speak of were replaced at the same time. Ah well,...
