Thanks Esteban, just curious...can you change the clutch by pulling the engine out and leaving the transmission in place? Unfortunately, no. The transmission doesn't have any mounts to rest on the chassis. It hangs on the engine, so when you take the engine out, even if you carefully support the tr...

Dropping the transmission once you raise the vehicle on axle stands is doable, but without a transmission jack putting it back is a very cumbersome job. Very difficult. The alignment is crucial but the odd shape of the transmission/transfer combo makes a very unbalanced load. Pulling the engine out ...

A quick heads up if you are using the Isuzu rear wheel cylinder for donor front wheel cylinder parts. I found a single cylinder in St Thomas, USVI. Cheap as chips and still available stateside. You cannot use your original pistons with the Isuzu seals. The Isuzu's pistons are smaller but they do se...

If used aftermarket wheel cylinders before. Some 30 years ago. I'm sure you'll be fine. There's not much mystery on a part like that. Any response on the use of the ProTex wheel cylinders is appreciated because the OEM wheel cylinders are not avaialble nor are rebuild kits, though the front ( i thin...

Accordig to the link in Amazon, it should work. I still have one on my spare parts with the markings S114-184. I brought mine from overseas, from a ‘74 model I totalled. I have swapped both. Don’t worry about the size. It’s deceiving but actually is a more powerful one: 1.2kW of the newer model vs 1...

Looks good. Probably came from Colombia. One small difference is that some of the bolts are metric, and not standard like earlier Patrols. The 3 wiper system is nice. I just saw a Bring a Trailer auction this week that sold for 21k. This one looks good at that price. I will comment separately about ...

Nissan over the years switched back and forth between two lengths of the diaphragm for two slightly different pump designs. I'm sure there was a bean counter involved. I have dealt with the two designs in the past. They are almost identical and difficult to distinguish between the two unless you do ...

With that outrageous price for the fuel pump at a couple of sites, I will install an electric fuel pump in the meantime. A universal electric fuel pump 4-7 psi will do it. I think a couple of members have done it. I would go that route in a heartbeat if that was my case. Some purist here will not li...

Hi Esteban, Thank you for your pics, etc. On my 67, the rear wheel was so tight I couldn't turn it by hand. On the very bottom of the passenger side wheel, on the inside of the wheel there is a bolt, and I backed the bolt off a couple turns and then the wheel would spring freely. But that is not th...

The installed Wilwood worked fine for a few miles then the front brakes would get hot then lock up. ... L60Boerne David, If this happen it is typical due to lack of a small clearance between the pushrod and the piston on the master cylinder. When it happens, one way to troubleshoot is to free a cou...
