Hi, don't know if this is the right forum, but it's home for me with my BJ74. I bought a new Magnum 9k winch a couple of months ago, and mounted it about a month and a half ago. I've taken the cable off it, because I've ordered some Amsteel Blue. OKOffroad is having trouble sourcing the offset fairlead, so it's been sitting with no wire or rope on it since I got it. There hasn't been any ...

hi, I need urgently help. I'm going to buy an '91 Prado LJ78 EX 2.4l, 101hp with 88500 km. Now I read a lot about engineproblems with cracked cyl heads. The car is in an exellent condition. I live in Senegal and Mali, so it's very hot and I need to drive very long distances (Bamako - Dakar about 1500 km). Can someone give me a hint concerning the engine? there is a Mitsubishi Pajero 2.8l, ...

It's extremely difficult to import engines and second hand car parts into my country; I'd given up hope of ever getting my hands on a 1hd, but a chance encounter with a car dealer changed that. I've had to wait for over a year but it looks like the wait may be finally over. The engine was sourced in Dubai from a crashed Coaster bus, 5 years ago. It was legally imported into my country and...

Last year I had a drama with all my warning lights coming on, the temperature high, not being able to turn off, and generally scaring the crap out of me. Fortunately one of the belts was broken and caused all that. Overtaking a car yesterday, and they all came on again - both turbo lights, the filter light, the auto gearbox light and the battery light. Temperature was normal and the ...

Yesterday, I bought a 1HD-FT engine to swap into my PZJ70. The engine was kept very badly and on disassembly we found some rust on cylinders 4 and 6. On cursory inspection the bores did not feel pitted but an experienced mechanic insisted that there was pitting and we'd have to rebore the engine block and also suggested fitting BORE LINERS. He also said that honing the bore would probably ...
