    Driveline pressureisation

    bane of the 4x4 is water ingress into the driveline components while fording or mud plugging..

    Ive had this one on the back burner and oportunity knocked today..

    I have the oportunity to get my hands on some of the air horn pump motors second hand at stupid cheap prices from a garage sale.

    Ive tested all the pumps and they are all good.

    For $40 or so (WAG) for parts per vehicle I should be able to install and plumb up driveline pressureisation kits using these pumps.


    The bloke will hold the pumps till this time tomorrow so IF anyone is interested in doing this add your name to this thread and Pm me there are only 4 pumps left. (and they have the horns as well)

    This post will act as the anchor for the how to that will follow when I start making the kits up and doing the install.

    We use to have a Unimog that had the torque tubes pressurised to 3 psi for this very reason.
    Seemed to work well usually no issues with water.
