    Mitsubishi Canter 3 inch Exhaust Brake and System

    Hi guys the brake unit is from a Mitsubishi FK417 fighter, 6 cylinder. When picked up from wreckers we were told to be careful to include about 6 inches of pipe either side of brake. The guys then upgraded the exhaust system from turbo manifold to tail with 3 inch piping. The original actuator...

    Mitsubishi Canter 3 inch Exhaust Brake and System

    Hi Guys This tread started in another post, but I though you might like to see the new 3 inch exhaust brake I put in the Canter yesterday. Still too early to quantify improvement but it sounds cool. Old system was 2 1/4 inch and quite rusted. Used old actuator from old brake. Cheers Steve

    Canter Regearing.

    Hi Dan, yeah I wasn't real clear on that post, understand there will be 16% overall increase in all high range gears. When we increasde tyre diameter from the originals to the Toyo 19.5s we gave ourselves a little more legs on the open road, but it had a negative affect of reducing our hill...

    Canter Regearing.

    Hi Dan Interesting modification. The additional 16% will certainly give you some legs. Possibly the biggest hurdle will be the 16% increase in the difference between 3rd and 4th gear. I look forward to adding your experience. Regards Steve

    Mitsubishi Fuso House Truck Build

    Hi Amk22 Our Amesz I believe was built on a Galvanised Steel frame with an aluminium shell. It has been very study and a quality job. I am told the stresses on the body were better handled through this type of design. I have also been told, designs like the SLR Adventurer that close in the sides...

    FTS 750 build

    Sounds a great project Brenie. We have been with a group squeezing a Man truck down some of your Vic Highland Tracks. In some circumstances we needed to close the track so he didn't risk meeting someone coming the other way. The FTS should be a good size. Look forward to reading about your...

    The Rack is a Rhino Rack platform on home fabricated bars and roof mount, and the wind deflector was also custom made. Hope this helps. Cheers Steve
