our car

[healy]

Ok people reg was cancelled because car isn't fit or will ever be fit to be on the road. As for the quarter chop, that I was doing myself. As stated before in previous posts i'm not selling the car, all the running gear and other bits will be kept and cleaned painted etc by me. I'm looking for a shell and chassis so I can get it going, I'm not sure if it will be a GU or GQ, depends on how much they are. I did not see the point of keeping the reg on as it is not wise to drive it anymore, it has been looked at by a few people now and everybody had the same conclusion. If you have an issue or something to say I'm more than happy to listen but don't go behind my back and say things. I hope your questions have been sorted, if not post or pm me.

Yea you haven't had the best of runs, but you'll get there. George has the light pole now, ready to bolt to a shiny New gu body..

Yeah it is and its hard to get up and look at it every f##king day

[TPC]

I don't think anybody would be talking behind your back.
You have had a rotten run with this car and hopefully you will find a good body cheap enough to fit the good bits to.
Best of luck with your search.

[MudRunnerTD]

Damn it Healy!! That sux mate! Would have been a tough decision mate. Good call though.

Give Halls4x4 wreckers a call mate if your looking to do a cab swap? But are you looking to swap your cab onto something yeah? Tough gig mate. Damn it, the Dog who sold it to you will Rot in Hell mate.

If you decide to strip the car you will make a few $1000 in bits and pieces mate. Probably $4 or $5000 to be honest but that would be it. At least it would be some coin back though then scrap whatever is left.

Pm me if you need a hand mate, I'd be listing it on MudRhino with a parts list if you decide to strip it for sure. It's local Vic and plenty of guys around your area looking for bits.

Good luck bloke.

Damn it!

[threedogs]

Could also give "Smart Parts" in Ballarat a buzz about a another shell.

[mudnut]

That is no good Healy. Surely there's gotta be someone who's got a 3lt grenade chassis going cheap?

[taslucas]

I want my sticker back!!!!!!


But seriously that's sux mate. I hope you find another chassis or donor vehicle soon. You know theres plenty of guys here willing to help any future endeavours

[NissanGQ4.2]

Have I missed something Healy? Why is it not fit for the road, Won't it pass rego again or is it just unsafe to drive?

Do you use face ache Healy?, there is a page dedicated to people selling and wrecking Patrols.

Never the less it does suck seeing something sitting in your driveway every day that you can't use, it was like that for me looking at the dirt bike and I feel so much better now that it is gone :).......still get the itch when I hear someone ride pass though :(

yeah i saw that on FB today too. it is a pretty good deal, you get a body without rust and a Chassis without rust. strip all yours over to that car. You would need to do a VIV to rebirth the write off and it would always be listed as a write off but so is my GQ so who really cares.

If you could find one like that not on teh register then it would save you a fair bit of pain but your probably going to pay more for it.

Offer him $500. ITs stripped down heaps mate. lots missing off that but certainly worth a look.

Is it a straight fit to put GU diffs on a GQ also does swaybars fit etc and what engines will the zd30 box fit up to? Is zd30 turbo capable to fit up to a any motor? Would GQ suspension be ok to put on a GU whilst I got the other set up out

GU diffs are an Upgrade and bolt straight up.

The sway bars on the early GUs are the same as the GQ the later models came with a thicker unit. regardless it will bolt straight up

The ZD30 airbox is an upgrade for all models.

the GU springs are slightly heavier and taller but the GQ and GU interchange all suspension components.

no idea on the turbo sorry mate

Outta here ;)

OK it is actually this car that he is now stripping down and selling off teh parts.

He has just messaged me and offered the Body and Chassis for $400. It is a repairable Writeoff.

Just got this from him



No rust at all , needs a radiator support and front bit of inner guard , that's all , yeah it wasn't quite whole , but my dad has started pulling it apart during the week , the cab is off the chassis now , and tanks etc are out

[healy]

Ok cool was it hit in the front and back? Is there more photos?

[MudRunnerTD]

Ok cool was it hit in the front and back? Is there more photos?

It reads like it was hit in the front quarter as it needs a Radiator support and a left front inner guard.

He sold the back doors.

Go to the FB link above and message him for more pics mate and maybe his number to have a chat. Even if it needs. Bit of a big up its a bloody winner mate!

Look at this one much more thoroughly than the last one mate. Even better would be to take somebody with you.

Hey bud im gonna do the diff conversion for sure if all goes well. The plan is tomake it comfy for the wife and kids how can I tell if its got the big brakes on the front I thought that was a gu thing lol so if it has big front brakes am I best to just do the rear swap? It is a good buy it only needs window elecs fixed for roady it is a bloody nice car just trying to save a coin or two been a very expensive year lol

Great news, hope it goes your way. Tb42e models came out with the twin pot calipers. I'd be chucking a hose down the chassis rails and giving them a good clean then penetrol the crap out of the underside.

Yeah sorry Healy i wrote a response to your question on Friday on my Computer and came back to it this morning and had not pressed Post! LOL

If the TB42e has the twin pot callipers then you already have a good sized brake. Then your GU Diffs will bring pretty good money. The H260 s not as sort after as the H233 as most that have done the upgrade have a locker and need teh smaller diff to fit it, certainly i did.

If you do the diff swap to the GQ then you get bigger CVs, Bigger Brakes and a wider wheel track. If you not playing super hard and yours has the twin pot brakes already then sell the GU diffs mate.

Might be an ARB bar. Definitely not a place for a shackle, that loop is designed to be used with one of these, and a high-lift jack. I see sooo many people snatching using those... they must be tough because I don't know of a failure yet, but the point is that it is NOT designed for recovery loads.

You need to put proper recovery point/s on the chassis horns.

https://www.expeditionexchange.com/recoverygear/DSC01387.jpg

[taslucas]

I got my bar modified to strengthen it up for a winch and at the same time welded 5mm plate next to those eyelets to thicken them up. The plates go back to the chassis mounting points. Tough as now.

I believe brake lines will not be an issue

[BigRAWesty]

Ive decided to run the gu diffs on the new gq which radious arms do I use and will brake lines all match up

Probably easier to just unbolt radius arms from the car and swap the lot. Direct fit of the brake lines.
But swap the brake master cylinder to as the gu one will suit the gu brakes..
But all will fit either way

[MudRunnerTD]

Same radius arms, you will need to steel the Tie Rod, the Drag Link and the Steering box too. Choose the radius arms that have the best Genuine a rubber Radius bushes in them. Not a big deal to unbolt but use the best you have.

If either of the cars have Manual Hubs bolt them up as they fit either.

When you undo the drive shaft it will want to roll back so get the radius bolts out first if you can.

[healy]

Also got a snorkel for it should look nice

If anyone has the 4.2efi with patroldocta snorkel and box or can tell me how to fit the sensors up theres a hose at start of air box and at top of airbox that connect to a thing and the maf sensor ive got to connect to run it correctly. The two hoses pre and post airbox can I just T piece off?

Does anybody have photos of where the dual batt sit in the 4.2efi? I think I know the spot im hoping im wrong

Mines a td42 but I think it's the same. They sit either side of the motor I can take a picture tomorrow to show you. Mine may be a fair few years old as it was in the car before I bought it and I have owned it for 10 years

I think your new airbox may be where the second battery usually goes. It's up against the firewall on the passenger side. Above the coil and usually where they put the gas mixer.

Nah they're different in EFI. If you're standing in front of the car Healy and looking into the bonnet, they sit in the very far right hand corner.
