Re: Patrols for Sale - Various sites

GQ's in SA are all a bit of a grey area Cedric. I am not actually sure if Nissan ever imported GQs officially. I seem to recall that Stefaansie's car is in the same series as mine. It has a VIN plate on the firewall that says "made in South Africa" but the VIN number does not follow Nissa...

Re: Off Course 4x4 show - Youtube

Ant,

I see you have lost a bit of weight.

It must have been from carrying all those huge boulders to build roads for the croozer to catch-up.... :rolling: :rolling:

Good work!!

Re: My 1998 GU 4500 GL..........

Petri, it was in 4H and 4L when I tested it the other day. Hubs on auto will click when the vehicle is in 4wd and moves in the opposite direction it was travelling in, or if it was stationary when 4wd was engaged. Ie: if you stop, and put the vehicle in 4wd, and drive forward, it will click. If you...

Re: Opinions on 98 Y61 4.2 non turbo

Oscar, By slow, I mean it takes a good while to get up to speed. Overtaking a slower vehicle/truck on a dual carriageway would take some planning. Remember, that Wagon weighs about 3t, and utilizing the 86 odd KW to get it moving takes time. I don't have any figures, so, I can't say exactly how slow...

Re: Opinions on 98 Y61 4.2 non turbo

Hi Oscar, That is about the going price for one of these. I had the same model for a year and a bit, bought and sold for the same price. So, if you decide to sell again, you won't lose. I can attest, they are slow. But they are quite solid and heavy. And they drive like a dream (for me it did) So, i...

Water Hoses Getting old

Good day Gents, Popping a Heater hose on the way to work is not nice. Hopefully not any damage to the engine... This made me think, the Troll is 22 years old this year, and probably a good time to replace some water hoses. Jackpot question: Where to find them? Does anybody have any ideas? Do you eve...

Re: low range gears

Nie patrol nie, maar ek is besig om n bietjie stadiger ratte in my W123 300D platkar in te sit. Net ter verduidelikking, n stock safari het omtrent n 35:1 ratio in 1ste low, met sy 4.88 difs. My merc kry nou 348:1... dit is 10 keer stadiger as my safari. En 37" bande... Ek was baie lui met wis...
