Yeah, you've made a really good job there, where did you get the curtains? I've been searching for some for my terrano for ages! :doh

 

[makeitfit]

Pay up your 10 quid 15dollars ish and get the whole manual online No Haynes available.
DO NOT ENGAGE 4X4 ON THE TARMAC that's why it "feels funny" You've got transmision wind up. Only use 4x4 off road or on loose surfaces as there is no center diff on these trucks
I'd change all the oils for piece of mind :thumbs

Pay your £10 or I'll tell Rolf Harris joke on your posts. Don't forget limited slip diff oil to change. David.

The transfer box in the lump on the back of the gearbox, theres a drain plug on both gear and transfer box, they are on the bottom, and the filler plugs are usually on the side, the oil type is GL4, SX75W-90

here's a thread i done about filling the gearbox

http://www.nissan4x4ownersclub.com/forum/showthread.php?t=16552


and here's one of what the gearbox and transfer box look like, so youll have an idea of where the transfer box is

think folks are trying to tell u all the info u need is available thru this site but to properly access the downloads u need to pay ur £10 full membership fee first as u cant get it at the moment

as for servicing u will need oil for the following

gear box
transmission
front diff
rear diff
might have still missed one

all require differnt grades and volume of fluid but the folks on hear will point u in the right direction

just remembers urs isnt a t2 or mav think urs is the r3m type motor but again folks on here know a whole more than me and will but me right

 

[Kamsin]

The £10 is to keep the site up and running as someone who runs it has to pay for the server space. We love the site and want people to help keep it alive and get them to pay as well. THe advice is all here and the service manual as well. I know people are aposed to paying for stuff on the net and look for ways to get it for free but then the site dies and we have nothing left.

Iv been here for two paid years and found the info priceless in that time and the advice 2nd to none, its well worth the money. :thumbs

Also the service manual is the Nissan one not some crap you get from the shop, its what Nissan use to fix the trucks :naughty

PS....PINK what are you thinking :doh

 

[SPARKIEDOO]

well said KASMIN :augie

Hay Folks

An update for you, job for mid weeks was painting the grill and indicators. And getting the wheels on.

Before – nasty oxidised grey:

After:

Job for the weekend was rubbing down and painting the bonnet. As you will see the chap who had it before me taped off the wings and blew over the bonnet with a spray gun not a nice finish so I thought that I would sort it out.

Prep:

Paint

Will get some pics soon

Job for this weekend, painting tail gate and little add on bits.

Hope you like them and thanks for all the help folks.

Cheers

Oh and an old chap pulled up when I was playing with my truck and offered his for sale so mu house mate brought it lol

Not bad for $1200 – fully registered and good to roll for 6 months, has an oil leak but it is just the oil filter seal that has perished so happy days, not as mad as mine but will do the job (automatic)
