Cheers Nathan exellent pics i can see the quality and strength now and as you say they are well tested by you and the proof of the pudding is in the eating, will have to invest soon as so i can do some more serious bashing. By the way how does the Navara fair up generally against the Patrols...

Exact same thing happened to me at Lancelin sand dunes, fancy having a radiator that is so suseptable to damage on a4x4, anyway did same as you and managed to limp home with no overheating.After searching high and low i found a place for a new rad for $270 and what did i do next sand trip out...

Fitted the radiator ironman guard a few weeks ago, first outing to the beach i managed to bend it, seemed to do the job though better than stock tin can one, already busted two radiators on mild days to the beach, crap position for it nissan.

Ye, cheers it is a 2006 with the two, so that will have a filter in it, it doesnt mention it in the service book, will these be available repco etc.

Maybe chipit would like to comment, i am interested.

Nice truck Vigilante, did you manage to get camber adjustment right after lift, just done mine and things are a bit out.

I would second that Old Tony, happened to me on a 4x4 fun day the thing had no guts and would not rev when needed to climb sand dunes. Spent days scratching my head before checking the basics, turned out to be a vacume line to turbo actuator split and fell off.

Now considering you could have bought a Triton GLX for $29990 drive away do you realy think you got a deal. Love them 3 diamonds, i will be going back before long.

He said 2.5 so no zd30, both common rail, i am sure it will just need a reset, ask the guys at chipit in Clarkson WA

How big a job is inspecting the chain on a D40, thinking of having a look myself and if needed is it a job the home mechanic could do.

Prety sure my 06 says set when on cruise

Hi, does anybody know if both chains suffer from wear or is it just the one, just been reading up on replacement procedures, so do we replace the primary chain or the secondary chain, thanks.

Is the chain noise easy to detect, will you definately know if you have a noisy chain
