    There's just something about the bulletproof security of a 4BD1 that feels just great. It fits like a worn in pair of work boots that you know won't let you down.

    I hopped back in my clunky old LT95 4BD1 turbo intercooled 1992 beat up scratched up Rangie, and felt RIGHT AT HOME!!! Vibrating dash , stinky diesel and all!!

    I LOVE my Diesel.

    What're you using for motor mounts? Mine doesn't shake the dash at idle. I'm using 3" by 1.5" industrial AV mounts. Fit the rangie V8 mounts but much softer.

    so worn out and busted up that anything that needs to be taken off to get to anything else is only held in with fasteners finger tight so it can be easily gotten to.

    I'll have you know that my RR is not at all like that! In fact if I had some good digitals I'd show ya!!

    ( Besides, its only a loose dash binacle...)

    No. It has survived many KM of corrugated and horrific roads by me and the previous 2 owners. Finally shaken/ broken loose. But yes, it has been TOOO long like that...
    I guess I could SILICON it back on!!
