    There is a member on here that done it to his GU Nissan Patrol 3.0Di using the Jatco RE4R03A Transmission, so can't see why not on the 4.2

    Where is a link to his website: http://www.chaz.yellowfoot.org/Locku...s%20Switch.htm

    Ask the question in its own thread and hopefully he will see it

    Cheers

    Hopefully you can find a service manual which covers your TCU. It will probably do the same thing with the torque converter, but may use a different coloured wire to do it. We have a couple of Canadian members here who may be able to help you, as I think they have Nissan "Safari"s which used autos behind diesel engines sometimes.

    When I joined this forum this thread is exactly the kind of thing I was hoping for. Detailed step by step photo filled instructions on DIY jobs. Well done ripper excellent work. I can't praise your efforts enough.

    Not sure myself but assume the solenoid is in the box itself , you don't need access to it just the wire coming from the tcu which is in the front passenger side kick panel .

    Reading what ripper has posted it seems that our GQs won't lock up in first gear only 2 and up unless you upgrade the valve body .
    Ripper would be able to confirm but I don't think he's a regular user of the forum .
