Those fittings are metric, not imperial.

I guess I am old fashioned, well logical since I am old. I use a early 50s Singer that was in the family before I was. Recently mostly marine work, Boat covers in Weathermax, Assortment of cloths, fabrics and vinyl. The machine is flawless even being 70+ YO.

I presume for that money you are buying the Izusu, Nissan and other pages that have barely seen a post in the past 6 years. When I started my Pajero build I posted it on the wire. After a month with no viewers I brought it here and it has received good attention. Personally I could not see 1K+...

To you it is dead, to many of us it is and now was the best forum for our collective needs. The Mitsubishi section was the last portion of all the pages that could possibly carry it's weight. I is possible that if all the fat was trimmed and people realized Farcebook is not a place to have any...

Custom radiators, Presuming you have a TIG welder or access to one, I buy generic circle track radiators from Speedway or wherever you choose. Cut and tuck the tanks as needed and alter the hose fittings to suit.

Hubs, they depend on your mission, If you primarily drive roads a car could get down and occasionally onto steeper rough stuff that for the most part you will make it through with minimal backing down, the factory hubs are fine.Now if you start driving tougher stuff that is steep rough where you...

The parts books show 20 for the 2dr and 26 for the 4dr. The books also show 88 and 89 with a different Pn but both listed as 20mm. Yes yours may have a 26 but that might not be original. I have done allot of spring swaps decades back by wandering salvage yards with rule and vernier in hand.

I have not looked at the rate numbers in a few decades, rate wise. get the 4 dr and cut as needed. Go a bit at a time but no reason to not do it. being the end of the last coil is functionally dead it simply is no issue. See what it drives like. Look at the 4dr sway bar as well. I just looked at...

Yup, me again, rear springs, I tossed the helper spring and added a full length main spring. I bought mine from John Baker who obviously is no longer with us. I ran 5 leafs in total. I did most all of this build when the rig was just 12 years old, turbo swap, suspension, ARB locker,etc

Oh, I tossed the Bilstiens due to a rather poor balance between compression/rebound. The KYB were far better.

You need to address the rear spring rate for this to turn in and grip through a turn, been there and never had a problem running away from well driven Vettes and any other car through the twisties. I ran larger disks with 4 piston calipers up front with generous discs in back. I also had...

Not really sure if this qualifies as progress but my Lil Pajero is finally up close to my Superboat which is one of it's duties to tow around. Well OK, my Lil Raider brought the boat over to it.

I spent some time this morning working around this new carb. Once I got the coolant hoses done and topped up the fluid I figured it was time to power it up for real, reach in and turn the key on to let the pump run, then to motorize the starter. First spark it was running, smooth proper idle. It...

Well I am a good boy but I am am also a bad boy. I machined up a carb mounting plate that positions this new China carb just where it needs to be, But I never thought to bring my camera down in the shop to log the project. Sorry for that. But once the carb was mounted, I slid on a fuel line from...

A rather important question? What brand timing belt did you get? Question goes for the waterpump as well.

As I stated in my previous post, right or wrong I am going to roll my dice on a different carb. The adapter layout looks easy enough, I expect i will get to that this afternoon, I think?

I have looked into the Montana situation, what is stated here is BS. Montana is simply cracking down on use of non dyed, AKA non road taxed diesel fuel use on the public roads. They are cracking down on people who drive with off highway fuel and charging them with tax evasion.

I have swapped a number of FWD engines into our RWD platforms over the decades. I expect the only one currently well covered had been a 3.8 Galant motor I swapped into my '95 SR. The SR was a 3.5 DOHC engine, The 2005, new engine at the time was a conventional SOHC, the engine has domed pistons...

Well, right or wrong I just bought a China weber, I have just the carb coming since all the kits I have been seeing are "handed" wrong, as in the primary and secondary are reversed. I will machine up an adapter once it is here. I have been considering swapping my turbo engine in, it pushed allot...

A little bit off topic, My '95 SR with the 3.8 DOHC engine has been parked for a few years since we had a monster snow dump some time back. I was backing it up in 4' of snow which piled and packed up behind it. The snow folded up the rust weakened tailpipe which shut the engine off. Changing the...
