Not yet, but tonight will be ordering a new starter motor and master cylinder for when i get back from holidays so i can spend some quality time with agatha ;-)
Got my 93 mav and found out it didn't have any bottom rear shock bushes. so after some determined hunting i found somewhere open on a saturday that had one last set of urethane bushes and fitted them. :)
Personally id go rubber mate, you will get better flex that way. Gen nissan rubbers are probably the only part a lot of us WILL always use. But if ya gonna lif it soon then replace with rubber then ;-)
I pushed Agatha back into the carport till I get her new starter in.................sheeesh she needs to go on a diet she one heavy mother ;-)
How much extra do you get?, also i just needed something there, since it was just metal on metal :pQuote:

There's probably no real accurate answer there mate but think of a "sport" car it uses nolethene and the like to stiffen everything up, thats not what were chasing in an off roader. probably no worries for a tow vehicle but if ya wanna keep ya wheels on the ground through the rough stuff go rubber nice and dare i say it rubbery hahahahhaahaQuote:

Gave it a wash. Topped up oil. Removed and refitted the turbo oil feed as it was leaking. Tomorrow must adjust the handbrake as it is so slack that on the flat in gear it just rolls along. Will check suspension and steering bushes while under there as well.

It was getting a bit rusty on the base and changing the color of my roof when it rained

Installed remote central locking. Took a whole 20minutes to do. Then I drank beer.
I've really gotta get around to doing this, only have to put one actuator in the driver's door because I've already got central locking, just not remote.Quote:

Nice work, you could powder coat it to match the interior.
Installed new (aftermarket) front seat belts. Sick of the Nissan belts not retracting properly and getting caught in the door. MUCH better now.
What, where, how and bucks.Quote:

I put recoed injectors and new glowplugs on Saturday, too some of the hid spotlights off on Sunday and fitted more work lights and fitted led driving light that i brought for my buggy on Wednesday.
I changed the oil filters, new oil and changed the dual battery link solenoid. :D a job well done I think.
What model Nissan at the wrecker would have seatbelts to suit the GU???
Bad day fishing better than a good days work every time
Don't throw away your money. They are all rubbish. Do yourself a favour and get some new ones. Its worth it in the end.Quote:

Some how I almost forgot, I gave the wagon some new feet. First time I have taken tyres off a Safari rim and man they were a pain to brake the bead on the inside. So now I am running around on some nice new GT Radial Savero Mt's 33's.
They are my second set and have found them to be out an standing tyre
