G'day Robert,
Since you seem to have some time on your hands Robert...How long have you been living up in Mackay?
I was told by one of my vehicle's previous owner's son that the Nissan SD33 diesel engine and Mark French Conversion adaptor fitted to a Nissan gearbox came from Mackay. The late previous owner's son does not recall the model Nissan the gearbox was from. Apparently the engine gearbox conversion was freighted from a farm in Mackay down to here in Bundaberg "x" number of years ago. "X" being the unknown factor. Like the gearbox.
Yes, it is a long shot - but back in the 80s and 90 - apart from the Nissan Cabstar what was a popular Nissan commercial vehicle - not necessarily a 4WD either; as my gearbox has a Land Rover transfer box sitting on its end? The numbers on the side of the gearbox do not seem to match Cabstar gearbox numbers.
I figure a popular model might be the donor gearbox. Yes I am getting close to pulling my hair out trying to identify it Nissan do not seem to be that help unless I wanted to buy a new complete vehicle.
Oh I am waiting for a phone call from my favourite federal government department that starts with C and ends in K. and they are late ringing me - go figure!
P.S. They were even late telephoning outside of the SMS appointed time frame and there were no apologies for the inconvenience - go figure!!!
How come I always seem to go and find this Kevin B. WIlson Youtube "Operator 42" when I have dealings with C-Link on the telephone
Hello Operator - YouTube Oh yes please cover sensitive ears.
Kind Regards
Lionel
