Hey mate I let the car sit for a while before cracking one of the injector lines to bleed the pressure out of the system, just make sure to keep fingers clear of the lines when cracking them due to the pressure.

Hey mate I believe there may be a kit for the D22 using similar lights. If not you can buy universal LED Festoon lights that will work.

Hey, yes the actuator does open the vanes all the way to the open position

Thanks, that's a good tip! I'll keep that in mind for future rebuilds.

Awesome to hear! Glad you were able to get the fan cleaned out. I've had my fair share of rats in the AC in multiple nissans, if the rats are persistent there is a few ways you can fit cabin filters into cars that didn't originally have one from factory.

various different grits, when you're removing the casting marks start at around 80-120, then mover your way up to 400-800 then move into polishing.

You don't need to bleed the system, often the system will bleed itself with enough time cranking. However, it can take quite a bit of cranking the motor to get it to cycle the air out of the system. To bleed the injector lines and rail all you need to do is loosen the injector nut at each injector and crank the car until diesel comes out of the injector lines. Then tighten the injector nuts back up, this will force air out of the system.

Thanks mate, it's definitely a bad habit especially without a terminal cover.

I was stuck on getting that back screw out for a good 45 minutes and then I gave up

Did you end up getting it out? Can help if you get creative and piece together some sort of screwdriver out of 1/4 drive parts. If you're still having trouble you could buy a low profile ratcheting bit driver.

Glad to hear it helped mate, those fuel lines are a real pain!

Great to hear, the lokka is a great mod. It is really up to how the car is driven but the lokka will allow you to drive tracks slower than unlocked as you have better traction and need less speed therefore allows you to control it better.

Hey mate this is likely the issue, replacing this resistor should fix your problem.

The idea is that it gives a much better angle for the arms and is then much better for driving on the road, if binding becomes an issue can opt for aftermarket arms with a different style bush.

I believe these are the same for all models of D22

Thanks mate glad it helped you out!

The car was running rough and had black smoke coming from the exhaust

@@ReubsModifications thanks for getting back to me mate really appreciate it. So it didn’t have a bad rattle or anything like that? Just curious because mine has a pretty bad rattle and I’m trying to figure out whether or not it injectors or timing chain 👍🏽

The clips came with the speakers and were just a threaded clip to give the screws a better grab

Hey mate, this resistor is the most common cause for the fan speed switch failing. Cant guarantee without seeing the car but would bet money that if the switch has failed it will be the resistor.

@ReubsModifications I put a new fan and new resistor in this arvo and it's still not working 😕 is there a fuse under the bonnet somewhere? (I have a 2005 d22 navara) cheers

Can you describe the issue you're having? Typically the fan resistor failing will cause the speed switch to work only on speed 4.

@ReubsModifications It's all good brother it was the blower Motor fuse.you wouldn't be in the Newcastle or Hunter area would you?

No sorry quite a few hours north of you up in Brisbane.

Hey mate the rear bar is a custom one I was able to find second hand, sadly not too many like it kicking around.

Certainly not an easy job, getting a patrol is a good way to go about it.

@@ReubsModifications 👍👍

No worries! Glad it helped

@@blackie75 really depends on where you are and how you use the car

@@ReubsModifications West coast of Tassie and it gets used for a lot of short trips like to work and shops etc mainly, but a bit of beach and gravel tracks every now and then.

@@autoperformance503 I purchase the harness from Amazon

@@autoperformance503 yes clear the codes with a scan tool then try again 👍🏻

@@ReubsModifications and I also found a leak today on 350z one of the main fuel line leak ,

@@DanyelleSinclair thanks mate glad you think so 👍🏻

@@autoperformance503 as far as I’m aware only the one in the centre of the block, I would not be surprised if the cam sensors also act in the same manner

Very welcome, glad it helped.

I'm not sure if Dobinson had UCAs at the time and if they did the blackhawks were likely cheaper.

Thanks mate and tell me about it 😂

Glad you think so!

I'm unsure why this would not have sorted the issue, I'd suggest making sure the code is properly cleared as it may still be logged.

@ I deleted the code with OBD scanner is that good??

Any software will likely be subscription based and costly, I was able to use the work laptop to code these in.

Hopefully getting onto it soon, I've got majority of the parts needed to get it going again..

Thanks mate!

Go for it! It wont be easy as the timing covers are quite intricate but it would look fantastic.

That's excellent to hear 👍

No, the YD25s have LEDs soldered into the panel.

Certainly is time consuming on these motors with all the gear on top and covers to remove then reinstall. Wont be cheap to send to someone else but at least the injectors themselves aren't too expensive 👍

@ReubsModifications i do have them already to go i just lack the time and knowledge to back myself in it being a days job if that makes sense Youre very good and clean witu your work too i rate it

That's understandable mate 👍 thanks a lot!

Glad you enjoyed it 👍

I purchase most of my parts through Ebay, I have links to the parts I used in the video description.

Not necessary but depends on the condition of the flywheel. They are not very expensive and given the amount of labour to remove the gearbox it is usually worth replacing or reconditioning.

This wasn't for my car but there certainly is quite a few extra steps for the 3".

Did you have to trim the strut towers?

Thanks for the visit!

Patience, not a fun job and a bit of a squeeze but you need to be careful around the injector lines as they're easy to damage. Ratchet with a few extensions and a wobbly drive also helps.

Its the ECU output to the glowplug relay 👍
