Went for a play in the mud on Saturday and busted a tow hook Now I have a week to get her fixed up with a new one & fit the new rear bar before next weekends mudding
-
Hey everyone, Does anyone here know anything about putting the rear springs out of a Nissan Patrol / Ford Maverick (depending on where you are in the world) in the rear of a WD21 pathy? I know it can be done & people have done it but just thought it's a tad weird given that they are a wider diameter spring. Any tips would be much appreciated (reason I ask is I have access to some spare from the old man's Rig)

Well it was a long evening of Beer & Pizza but we finished fabricating my custom rock sliders to the ol' girl. Looking pretty fly! Gotta take 'em out for a test on the weekend. Will post more pics when they're all muddy.

Mate if the V6 is anything like the Diesel TD27. It's a piece of cake. I had to take mine off the other day, takes about 5 mins. Step 1: Take the bottom part off (as stated above it's merely snap locked in place to the top half once you've undone bottom screws) Probably pays to take bash plate off as you will need to pull it out through the bottom. (by memory you don't have to worry about bottom hoses. If you do then simply undo it and leave there until you've removed top half. Step 2: Undo your top radiator hose (if you do it carefully you should be able to angle it up so no fluid is lost (maybe plug it for time being?) Step 3: Undo the 2 screws holding it to the radiator, should pretty much just slide up now, providing you followed Step 1. May have to tweak it a little past the fan but she has enough flex that you won't break it. Also I don't run a bottom shroud anymore because I like you had problems with the fan ripping it up when I broke an engine mount about 6 months ago. Hope that all helps mate! Also, maybe look into aftermarket radiators, my new one is a slightly thinner alloy one designed for Pathys and does a better job than the original

Continued with my LED conversions, pretty much running all LED on the ol' girl now inside & out. Tonight though I'm heading to see my fabricator and installing the brand new Rock sliders!!!! I'll post pics when done.

Installed new aftermarket alloy radiator. Perfect lean fit.

It was just purchased from the local auto store here in New Zealand, it's there own brand. Probably find similar stuff on eBay though id imagine. Especially if you look at the Australian site Sent from my GT-I8190N using Tapatalk

Well the holes in the grille mesh are actually angled so you do get a degree of direction towards you BUT it can't be adjusted obviously. Does the job for me though
-
Yep exactly that, both the surrounds and vents themselves were pretty busted so removed the lot. I then cut out the shape to be slightly larger than the hole and bent the edges over so they just slid in tightly at the perfect size.
-
Finally got rid of the factory installed A/C Vents that were long busted and replaced em with some good looking bodykit grille.
-
Changed fuel filter and gave the old girl a little service

It's actually off a Navara which I believe you guys call the "Hardbody"? Just needed a little modification to fit to the Pathy mounts Sent from my GT-I8190N using Tapatalk -

Had a Night run trip last night. Not too much mud but enough to justify giving the ol' girl a good wash
