Thanks for that:thumbs not sure if mine has a little free play sadly or not but i'm sure the track rods & relay bar might need replacing next year so it would be the perfect time to check it to know for sure

Fantastic Rick often wondered what it looked like on the inside:thumbs to adjust any free play in the steering box do you adjust it by the slot in the center of the shaft in photo 2 ? I know it not often it needs to be done but I curious just in case one day mine needs a little tweak

Who on earth fitted a LR chassis to your truck when you weren't looking:eek::lol:lol glad you found it before it gave out on you & pleased you've managed to repair it:thumb2 but to me it just go's to show how tough the old Patrols are as i've seen a few pic's & videos lately of 8 year old L200's...

I would try replacing the fuel filter if you don't know when it was last done, mine partly blocked up & was ok on light throttle but when you put your foot down it struggled to rev & the engine management light came on read & cleared the fault code (easy to do info in the down loads/how to's but...

Pic's would be great if you can Jim & maybe some measurements from the sides & rear:thumb2 I hate drilling holes in places like the roof:doh but on the plus side extra lighting will be getting added:thumbs

Hi & welcome:thumb2 if you join up as a full member you'll get access to loads of info inc the how to's but the Terrano (T2) is a great motor & many of us have owned more than one

The Son has bought me a set of standard Nissan roof rails for Xmas:eek::D:D Now how to I fit the things:nenau think I need rivnuts but no idea on what size or how to fit them:o not offered the rails up to the roof yet as it's chucking it down but will the mounting feet show where they need to go...

OMG Bradford & Sheffield is in the south :lol:lol:lol TBH there are only a couple of roads I can think of in Newcastle which have been left cobbled & no we don't all wear flat caps, own whippets or work in the mines as no mines left:lol:lol:lol

Rick can you help me here please as I get mixed up with gear ratios:o is the petrol one higher or lower than the diesel

Think it still needs to be MOT'ed IIRC but old cars like this they don't do emission tests it's by eye ie if it kicked out loads of smoke it would fail lol I would love that as a project as to me it's crying out to become a nice hotrod with a roof chop & a nice big tuned V8 under the bonnet:clap

Prob easier to import a Nissan exttra front axle from the states as i'm 99% sure that model uses the same rear axle as the T2 but the later ones had rear disc brakes. LR axles as weak snapping half shafts is common even when fitted with HD ones:doh but what ever axle is used there is a load of...
