Sort of shied off the TD04HL after seeing one disintegrate on a 6x6. Lucky he had an intercooler as all the compressor vanes ended up in there. Will have to investigate the fuel rack limiter thingo.

Its in there where my crappy red arrow is pointinghttps://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/im...017/05/549.jpg
Not sure which. Only know it was a Kinugawa TD04HL. Snapped the shaft when he gave it a bootfull overtaking and it went pop! when the compressor vanes parted company with the hub. I have a spare fuel pump sitting in the shed - will have to have a look at it when I have a bit of time to spare!! Thanks for that photo Damien.
Hmm wonder if he was getting enough oil to it. Mines the same brand, see's 30spi constantly.
Finally got around to draining the front diff. and refilling with Castrol EPX. Stuff that came out was horrible.
Then discovered the battery I charged two weeks again was flat again despite not being hooked up. Voltmeter revealed 12.06v and then when I tried to start, 3.6.
Battery has been on charge overnight and a new one has been added to the shopping list.
Oh and hello btw. It's been a while...
I finally got around to adfing longer grease nipples to the front UJ's.

Also changed steering box oil, removed rear wheel and cleaned out old oil buildup (aftermath of leaking drive flange). Topped up gearbox and transfer oil (think output shaft seal is leaking).
Found I had a half amp constand drain on the battery. I suspect i have a couple of non standard hella relays somewhere.
So I added an isolation awitch with a feed battery side for clock and solar.
Added a gme waterproof marine receiver.
Hit up all the grease nipples with ag grease.
Went for a test drive, hit a wallaby - went back and couldn't find it, no signs of damage.
noticed shift change difficulties when cold - using castrol gtx 15w40 synthetic in gearbox.
Im looking for gearbox oil reccomendations by the way.
And a few happy snaps from recent travels...
