Stopped it dripping and silenced the A/C. Now bring on the warmer weather.:D
Fitted new door hinges. Stupid Mr Nissan and his stupid plastic clips/screws.
How did you go with the door hinge? I bought one 18 months ago and still haven't fitted it. Lol.Quote:

Did you buy a complete hinge from Nissan, or just the bits to overhaul the existing hinge? I need to do my drivers door.Quote:

Just broke the first rule of ZD30 ownership... Brought a Belt Tensioner off Ebay.. Hopefully it doesn't explode while trying to fit it.
Just keep your old one under the seat as a spare.Quote:

Looking nice Rossco. Decent hook is really worth it I reckon. Bit jealous of the snow trip, but I wasn't up for it this time. Waiting for the photos

Gotta love those latch lock hooks.
You're all set up front now
I was gonna get that type of hook but roadrunner talked me out of it, he reckoned they can fill up with mud and be a bitch to open... Probably not so much a problem when it's not on a winch truck though lolQuote:

After something a bit bigger, but every time I look at these style hooks, they are half the price of the winch!
Check these out... I don't know which size Rossco has.

Yeah looks like the same size as mine, I'll check later. Yeah went for the clevis pin type, rope fits in tightish but nice. Did have one of these hooks ages ago, noticed it did get a bit sticky at times, but with a litte maintenence & lube should be happy days. . .
Yeah cool, there's 2 links there from Roadrunner, a 3.25t and a 5.3t rated hook.
