What did you do to your Patrol today!

[MudRunnerTD]

Finished passenger side hub seal/TB brake upgrade. @MudRunnerTD I have some photo's of the removal of the knuckle bearings using a sykes puller if you want to include in your build, plus a shot of the new disk fitted to the old hub - important step in the brake upgrade. Bleeding the brakes tomorrow with my brother , could not get all the air out using the one man bleed kit.

To my frustration I am in the middle of a full front end strip down too damn it. I was going to grab a set of pics using a couple of options for king Pin bearing removal and post up too. Add yours mate. I will edit my post too and add mine at the start in the right spot.

Does sound like a very efficient charger mate, actually in the market for a decent shed one myself these days. If time permits please do post up a link to the ‘Thunder 12v’ ripper, Cheers!

I have a Ctek mxs5 Mark and it’s an awesome charger. Worth looking at...

@MB
I second this. I have the 4 Amp version and it charges batteries like a champ. Coupled with my in-car CTEK setup, it charges both Aux & starter.

I've got the smaller 3.8A version and I use it as a maintenance charger only. Because my car can sit for a month without being driven I keep this charger on it all the time, hopefully it will make the batteries last longer.

Bled brakes for 4 hrs, could not get the pedal to stop hitting the firewall. made a few calls to gents on the Forum for advice, nope didn't change. Ended up putting 2L of fluid thru the system, completely flushed it out, no leaks visible anywhere. Came to the conclusion perhaps the brake master cylinder was passing fluid, so pulled it out, looks fine but not wanting to root around any further, purchase a new Nissan brake master cylinder on the basis this one had done its job since 1997, and its a process of elimination. Bled brakes PR, DR, PF then DF and also the brake proportining valve. PedAL would pump up with engine off then fall to the firewall as soon as the engine was turned on and wouldnot return.

Whilst putting the LR wheel back on noticed the stone shield on the Koni shocker has been torn away - trying to find a card reader for my camera - study has eaten it - so will post up shots later - pretty violent damage, and the shocker will be rooted for sure - lucky I have a couple of spares.

@MB I will add with the Ctek, if the battery is fubar, the charger will let you know. Plus the recond mode is awesome. Did the battery in the wifes car which was dead flat, brought it back to life...
