We finally uncovered my handmedown daily work 2014 Nissan Navara D40’s clutch issues [emoji51][emoji23]
Troubleshooting wise, has been absolute confusion for the last few weeks.
Turns out the D40 Firewall has quite severely cracked 2/3rds around circle and allows the Clutch Master to #Flex Left OFF its true OEM Nissan SAD new age position with pre-tinfoil Patrol Pedigree [emoji123][emoji736][emoji106]

And that caused the clutch lines to leak or something?
Not a good idea running your aerial lead through the grille. Makes it a real pain-in-the-whatever to remove the grille.Quote:

I'd be more worried about interference from winch/spotty electrics... especially if you were out with a radio trying to comms a pull...
Never really had a problem with it, I've had the grill off a few times. Just roll it over the top of the radiator and it's out of the way..Quote:

Easy peasy, simply install a warmish h/m winch with 15mm ish say of additional spacing backwards off your GQ and or GU bullbars for added line usability.
Guaranteed your penetrated grill will be custom fitted/slotted to stealthily accept a baby wire as such for full and easy removal if needed [emoji23]

Believe it or not, this was taken in city traffic. One of those occasions when you realize that concrete walls, black asphalt , and amidst thousands of people is not where your mind wants to be.
Let's see who can translate the windshield sticker...

PS. The technology is worrying. My google pixel detected text in your photo. Flipped it and translated ... Pretty much automatically.

It is a common practice here to leave a note or a business card handwritten "interested in selling?" and the person's phone number on the windshield/wipers of cars that someone is interested. So the sticker is a joke, calling the person's attention that this car has found its last owner.Quote:

I'm a hoo-daddy as of this morning.
My German Shepherd Dog puppy, Cyclone, was born at about the respectable hour of 8am this morning.
Now it's an anxious 8 week wait. lol
I’m a happy man as my patrol has been on a diet and lost 534kg and is now legal to tow my new off road caravan, it was 534kg over gvm with the van on, I’ve taken everything off except the tube bar and rear bar, no spare wheel on as it’s on the caravan, I’m now 60kg under with the van on but I will be carrying my maxtrax in the car but nothing else whilst the van is on, when it’s not on I’m 260 under.
So you take everything from the car and put on the caravan, moving the weight from one axle to the other?
Doing a bit over last 5 weeks, from pad prep, to now my new shed has started to come up from the footings brackets/piers today.
Great news old mate, will be waiting for lots of photos:bday:Quote:

Looks a good size... you'll get a couple safaris in there :D

Interesting, U say:,Quote:

the shed supplier recommended a similar method, but bolt to bottom footing brkt as anchor, bolt and lift using this lowest bolt as the hinge point, lift then brace and secure (3 purlin bolts thru each footing brkt to columns).
More "amish" _ I wanted to lash a snatch block to a select tree behind and winch up same, but their builder on site did not want to play...
Good size for my needs, 16x9m (5m high walls) _ 5T/2 poster going in. Coming together, walls are now sheeted, roller doors tomorrow then roof cover Monday (depends on windage).
Tough day at the office today!!!

A fresh chapter, not sure if I'm not just a fraction trepidatious.
I had to fly to perth just to get a forum signal. Just landed, back on the forum and can breathe again.Quote:

But, yes. Mrs mudsane went wheeling for the first time!:Yahoo!:
Yep, it can be very relaxing when you let the boss drive sometimes. Mix it with a refreshment of your choosing and it can be very pleasant.Quote:
