I am new to the site. I have a 1998, RD28eti GU Patrol (ST). I have had the vehicle from new. when I bought the car, I put on:
- upgraded springs and shocks
- tow bar
- TJM bullbar
- Warn Winch
- Duel Batteries
- side bars
- 285/75R16 Cooper STT
- UHF
Since I have had the car, it has been a good vehicle, but has suffered some problems:
- injection pump worn and reqired reconditioning
- head cracked - replaced
- oil cooler failed - oil getting into the water (lucky not the other way around)
- clutch and flywheel replaced (put a solid flywheel in)
And most recently, the blocked shattered after the crank shaft sent a rod through the side of the block, spraying cast iron shrapnel straight through the sump.
So, after saving up some $$$, I have purchsed a import RD28T, which I am in the process of converting to an RD28eti, by transferring everything from one engine to the other. fun, fun, fun...
