T-Doug's U-Boat

[terranosaurusdoug]

This my new truck, I couldn't bring myself to buy a jeep :lol
It's a 2003 Shogun, that's the domestic version so not an imported one which are called Pajero, which means it has a locking rear differential it's a LWB commercial with the 3.2DID engine, supposed to be good motors.
It's loads bigger than my Terrano with lots of space in the boot, LOTS of space :thumbs
I will post some better pics when I actually have the vehicle

Sorry to see the demise of your T2 Mark but after your epic water sail it was only to be expected, you would have loved a Patrol but sadly few and far between, good luck with the new one, fraid I know nothing about them, happy new year, Rick

She looks good! Shame that the interior has been neglected by the previous owner. But it hopefully worked in your favour regarding a good price.

How many miles has she done?

You and FerdiNL can start a Shogun section on the forum.

Oh yeh I forgot he had one :thumb2

Done 124k, interior is mainly dirty, a vacuum will get the majority it, I think there is a bit of trim missing in the boot.
Has an adjustable arm rest :thumbs
Can't wait to get my wheels from the Terrano on, those ones look stupid, like buttons.

I put my Terrano wheels on the Shogun today, bigger tyres and same 16" wheel size, more negative offset than standard though, they are just right I reckon :thumbs

 

[terranosaurusdoug]

And I found out why the arches are flat on the top

Looking good mate:thumb2

Hi all, I've renewed my membership and laid my tenner, cos I know you're all desperate to know how I'm doing with the Shogun :lol
It's a fantastic vehicle and the 3.2DID engine is awesome :thumbs
Not done a great deal with it but I have some pics for you guys.
I've bought some some service items for it and an oil pressure sensor which I will change when I do the oil filter.
I believe the sensor is leaking a bit of oil, a common issue apparently.

I have put some drawers in the back that I found in one of our old vans at work, ball bearing runners, not mega heavy but heavy duty enough to last.
I think I am going to use rivnuts to secure them to the floor.

 

[terranosaurusdoug]

I have also fitted a sink
These get fitted to the exterior of trucks so pretty tough things, it has a heating element in it but it's 24v, we wired one up to 12v today and it still heated the water, and it's got a voltage sensitive relay in it that turns it on at 13.something volts and off at 12.something volts, even though it's a 24v unit.
I haven't wired it yet though.
I've put it where the tool kit went.

nice one, there was one of the Pajero's out with us on the weekend and its very capable truck. Hope it serves you well.

The bloody thing has broken down :lol

 

[terranosaurusdoug]

Well, its bloody broken, injector pump is completely knackered, I've just ordered a 2nd hand one for £850.

Took me about six weeks to break it, just driving normally. It took six years of ABUSE to kill the Terrano :lol

Bosch or Zexel. AH sorry thought you were talking Terrano, Rick
