My 98 GU is 20mm lower on the right then the left, swaped the springs and checked the sway bar but cant see any reason for it to be this way. Any suggestions to why and how to fix it?
Thanks for any...
I have a timing belt kit to put in my 2.8 GU and just wanted to know if there was Amy tricks to it or anything I should know before I attack it?
Any help appreciated
Got a fan on a hub from the wreckers for $77 with 3 months warranty
nice truck mate, good luck with everything.
its done a few kms but is super clean inside and out. has a few mechanical issues that im almost finished with but i got it cheap so im not complaining.
the bearings were pretty easy, a work shop manual is a very good help with anything like that. please by a good quality bearing kit, as mine had a 3 month old ebay kit in it. the seals were leaking...
spent all week sorting bits and pieces on the patrol, so thought it was time to put some pics of it up.
Thanks for the help, just replaced the wheel bearings, so fingers crossed thats solved. Im replacing the glow plugs and rocker cover gasket tonight so i will have a closer look at the injectors then....
thanks for the help guys, i will chase up a hub today. They are about $230 new if anyone is curious.
thanks all for the warm welcome.
Yes it's just the hub of the fan moving on the shaft. Is the fan rebuildable or do I need to replace it ?
jacked the car up and wobbled the wheel , no movement and felt smooth to spin. Could it still be the bearing ?
Im guessing the fan is not supposed to wobble on the shaft. it feels fairly firm to spin but you can wobble it around on the shaft. is it something that is repairable or any suggestions?
thanks mate, i just had a closer look and it looks wet up around the glow plugs, is it posible they arn't seated properly or something ?
Just after some advice on where to start. i have noticed a bearing type noise in the front right of my GU, it gets very loud after 70kph and is louder when the wheel is turned right or left around...
Yes the cruiser had alot of money spent on it wasn't anything left to do. But thanks to f@eking gfc crap it had to go, so lucky for me I wasn't in the car but did hear the driver got pretty knocked...
more please, looks like fun.
Here are some pics of previous trucks and now i have the patrol that i have only just got. I will put some pics of the patrol up later as the ones i have wont work.
Its a 2.8 GU that is going to...
nice truck mate, do you find your snorkel very loud? i have had them on other trucks but not sure about putting one on the patrol.
