Chilli (1981 SJ40) is pressurizing the cooling system and using a little bit a water and recently a tiny amount of mayonnaise was found under the radiator cap so it's head off time soon.

I have the gasket kit for an F8a, will this work with the F10a?

If it turns out to be a cracked head, will a F8a head fit and not be detrimental to anything? Where should I look for cracks?

Her diffs badly need rebuilding, you can feel the play in the pinion bearing and it has an alarming amount of backlash. Can anyone point me in the direction of a kit to do this?

Is it possible to bolt an LJ50 3rd member into the front of a 1l?

Am I right in thinking a 1.3l (electronic) dizzy drops in and gives me electronic ignition? Would I be better off with the elec dizzy from a Maruti?

What do I need to (and how do I) fit WT flares to a NT?

Thanks

Hayden

If it turns out to be a cracked head, will a F8a head fit and not be detrimental to anything? Where should I look for cracks? heads, cams, valves etc are identical. Not sure about cracks, but I have allot I've pulled off F's which have corroded out between the water jacket and the oil galleries....

Is it possible to bolt an LJ50 3rd member into the front of a 1l? not the same casting, but still 100% interchangeable. LJ80 can be used too, so can Super Carry (actually the same casting as 410)

Am I right in thinking a 1.3l (electronic) dizzy drops in and gives me electronic ignition? Would I be better off with the elec dizzy from a Maruti? Yep, Anita's electronic ignition is from a WT G13. I put the vaccum advance on the charcoal canister port on the manifold, and had to change a bit of wiring (real easy). Worst thing is I can't stop the 1.3 dizzy leaking oil out of the vacuum advance solenoid thing, but mines on an F8 dizzy housing and pointing sideways

What do I need to (and how do I) fit WT flares to a NT? Don't; make some tube guards

Thanks

Her diffs badly need rebuilding, you can feel the play in the pinion bearing and it has an alarming amount of backlash. Can anyone point me in the direction of a kit to do this? Let me know if you find a kit This is the closest I've found.... but not proper. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Diff-Bearing ... 1e63b4b3f0

Is it possible to bolt an LJ50 3rd member into the front of a 1l? not the same casting, but still 100% interchangeable. LJ80 can be used too, so can Super Carry (actually the same casting as 410) I knew they where a different casting and centre so yeah.

It's a Suzuki, you'l never beat the leaks.

What do I need to (and how do I) fit WT flares to a NT? Don't; make some tube guards What would hair dressers want with tube gaurds? Na, I'm gona be lazy and have scrub bars. I want it to look as stock as possible.

Still no crush tube though
Curious part interchangeability; when I did the air lockers in Anita, I used a pair of Sierra front wheel bearing kits to change the carrier bearings... worked out cheaper and came with a spare seal for the hubs.

Yeah So the crush tube is different between 1.3l and awesome centres? The wheel bearings and carrier bearings are the same too?

I really need to get some parts manuals.

Some of your back lash might be in the transfer case, mine was. Has yours got the switch type case ?

The transfer has a bit of play in it but the rear diff has shitloads! She's a non-switch case unfortunately.

yeah sorry, I mean collapsible spacer.... my head is defective
I think they are different... not 100% sure...

yes, Sierra wheel bearings and 6.5" carrier bearings are the same. 7" carrier bearings are bigger.
