Now the cilinderhead is by a company for revision.

A have a few Questions:

- How do I remove the dirt out of the holes of the engine beneath the cilinderhead?
- I have a SMIC of a Toyota Supra Mk4. It has plus minus the same size of a intercooler on the patrol Y61 2.8. How do I implent this on the Y60? What is the best way? Every tip is welcome.
- I found some rust in the hooks on the bar where the radiator is standing... Tips how i remove it the best way...

the easiest way to remove the dirt from the bore if it is loose is with your Vacuum Cleaner ;) Works a treat

Thanks for the tip man. I will try it tomorrow...

I found some rust on the bar in the hooks where the radiator stands. What is the best way? Remove it with a screwdriver, scour it, rustconverter, zincspray, primer and black paint?
Anybody experience with putting a SMIC on a 2.8TD?

Sounds like your diff pinion angle is wrong. Can correct it with some adjustable upper arms in the rear. What's the driveshaft angle like in the swb?
