Nissan Patrol 4x4 (Africa)

eL O gents - PLEASE - Lobo is stuck at "Brake 'n Clutch" -
Some two weeks ago the brakes went all sille on me and only the one rear wheel would brake .. { maak nogal 'n lekker 180 as jy bikki HARD stop - veral in die reen... ek dink dis plesierig maar Dwergie laaik dit B-Oll.}
Ons het hom gestel-stelstel .. until it was good as new again - untill 2 days ago, same ^^^^*#@ And arem Dwergie was driving it So I took it in to have it adjusted again - this time they came with new gabble - the drum is oval - thus the lockin-up... ? since when and how does this happen??? all of a sudden?

Vanoggend they tell me the rear pistons on teh brakes are pitted and they cant find any ...
SO my plea - Anubody knows of somewhere i can get rear brake pistons for a 1982 DATSUN SAFARI [aka Nissan Patrol]
I stil dont know what Lobo's number is .. is it GQ or GY or just G ...?

Daar is ander opsies as die parte nie beskikbaar is nie.
Sleeve en laat maak nuwe pistons of gaan met die parte na n plek soo Winbrake(Jhb) of Norbrake(Boksburg) en hulle sal dalk vir jou iets kan match wat baie naby is en wat dieslefde job sal doen.

Dankie John ... nou voel ek aan my vel wat meen die manne as hulle sê "die Datsun se parte is nie beskikbaar nie" [maar ek dink darem jy sal sukkel vir 'n 1982 Cruiser se agter briek silinders ook ]

Thanx vir hirri, groete, mooiloop, Oompie

Los hom so Oom,daai 180's klink lekker,as n ou dit reg beplan kan n mens n netjiese u-turn maak
Ek spot net Oom,hier is manne wat die sylinders fix asook die piston,so daar bo sal Oom regkom soos Johndough se.
Groete

Oom Mac, moenie bekommerd wees oor daardie Australiese benamings nie .

Nissan noem daardie trok 'n model 160.

Ek dink die Aussie-kode vir die 160 is die MQ (Y60 is GQ en Y61 is GU)

Dankie manne - maar Lobo staan nogsteeds gatomhoog - maar Jakes Louw het annerkant oppi Nissan plaas voorgestel ons traai die Cabstar / Caball silinders ..
Maar Skankwan is trug op die werf - so nou kan ek weer beweeg..
Agarob is hopelik ook teen more aand tuis... en Saterdag is ek in BOTSWANA vir 10 dae [nee gannie jag of toer nie - gaan op uitreik Boesmans toe

and after all this - all a false alarm because the guys I gave Lobo in to sort out the brakes sent him to "Brake & Clutch Menlyn"
They then told me that Paul [at B & C] told them teh cylinders were shot - Toaday I went to see him myself, and it came out all was a big fat lie - there is NOTHING wrong with the brake cylinders .. all he told them was that the b/cyl tends to start leaking after new brake shoes are fitted - and he wanted to know if I wanted the cylindrewe replaced now - or later IF and WHEN they do start leaking ..
i told him to fit the shoes - as Lobio is now 3 days just standing there - waiting for ^^^^ knows what, because a greedy 'inhalige' blxzm wants to score on me... because I'm old I must be stupid ???

SO - lobo is home - brakes are a bit mushy - so it has to be blead again .. but they stop in a straight stripe - and Dwergie is happy .. because she now regards Lobo as "her" car

Dit bewys net weer hoekom ek niemand vertrou om aan my voertuig te werk nie - ek doen dit eerder self

agge jaaaaaa - dis "official" - Lobo se "inner seals" [waar die d/shaft in die diff ingaan ] is gedaan en ons kannie nuwes kry nie - Het IEMAND raad?
- Ook - die regter drive shaft [die korter een] is ook verweer agv die seel wat gelek het en hy bikki droog geloop het

So - the request is for assistance in finding 2 x INNER side shaft seals for a 1982 Safari S/W

[Paul het sopas gebel - hy kan die seels by NISSAN kry .. teen R490 + vat stuk/elk/een

Still need those brake cylinders -

ek verkoop sommer die ding ... wie wil my offer maak ?

Mac, ek het myne by Bearing Man gekry - al verskil was dat hy 1mm breer was as die ou een.
