On carsales too: http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-Navara-2007/SSE-AD-2860160 Only interested in swaps for 2006+ GU Patrol. I purchased this car in Feb 2012 @ 98,000 kilometres and it was stock at the time. Since then I've modified it to be a capable tourer and mostly only used...

What ended up being the problem with your drive belt? Was it the belt or the pulleys?

I pressed it off and on with a press. I did it in warm weather which seemed to make a huge difference. First attempt I pulled the axle out of the car and went to work pressing the ring off and it seemed really stuck on there. Put it in the sun, went inside for a beer, came back out and the axle...

Thanks guys - took it out for a spin in Wombat State Forest today and was all good. The small grease nipples only just clear the yokes with ~1mm or less of clearance. No way the large grease nipple would ever have got through there! Interesting the part listed at all these places simply...

Hi folks, I was getting some vibrations and found the rear uni on my front shaft was pretty buggered. Having the tools for then job I went down to Bearing Wholesalers (BW) and got some replacement uni's. When I went to fit them however I discovered a problem with the grease nipple. Can anyone...

Another quick update for those playing at home... Neither side is leaking anymore. I suspect that the 'leak' following install might have been the grease applied to the inside of the outer seal running out and once that was finished its actually sealing now. Pulled the drums off on the weekend...

Follow up post to my previous one... I replaced both sides with these kits. The side that was leaking originally is looking good about 1000ks later with no leaks. The side that WASN'T leaking originally is seeping ever so slightly between the axle and the backing plate. Not sure why as yet...

Aircon definitely makes my 07 d40 run hotter. Normally sits about 95 and on a hot day with the air con on, even on the freeway it sits on about 101-104. First time I noticed was heading to the border track and I was a bit worried but it's never gone any higher so I guess it's normal.

Starting this job on the weekend and almost got 1 axle done but didn't make much progress as it was 40 deg outside (and the shed was even hotter!) I'm about to put it all back in the car and have a quick question...The manual says not to reuse the orange/brown axle shaft guide or ABS tone ring...

I did this on my D40. Moved the solenoid behind the left strut tower and installed the plug into the side of the top glove box. This way I can leave the controllers in the glovebox till I need them. The solenoid cables run along the firewall then down behind the air box. Used 0 awg welding cable...

Quick update for this thread - I just bought one for my 07 D40. Repco - $220 for aftermarket Bursons - $96 + $15 freight charge to order it in for aftermarket Nissan - $195 for genuine Nizzbits - $125 for genuine delivered next day to my door (live a few suburbs across) Garry from Nizzbits...

I've been meaning to create a topic on this too. I had the same issue after flooding the car and then having a flat battery. After a lot of research I found a thread the described what you have said above. Essentially when the battery goes flat the selection computer 'forgets' its in 4LO so...

If you type in Google "Bright to Lakes Entrance" you get this... https://maps.google.com.au/maps?saddr=Bright+VIC&daddr=Lakes+Entrance+VIC&gl=au&panel=1&fb=1&geocode=FamKz_0dAHLCCClj_UqYdRgkazEwTaAwpHkFBA%3BFeAAvv0dNSzSCCklEvQFhmAlazEw3aAwpHkFBQ&t=m&z=9 Definitely no snow in summer - Although...
