So I was changing my bearings the other day. Went to the dealer to purchase the lock nut, as the old ones were shattered along with the bearing (long story). Dealer info. showed 2 lock nuts are required, part# 43521-60020. same as what's shown in the repair manual, But this is what they...

This is wayyyy beyond my comprehension. I am just watching and learning, Sir.

thanks for sharing. Been thinking about doing something similar...

Made a swing-out jerry can carrier this week. Vid here:

Just wondering, assuming the flashing is the sign to tell me to change the timing belt, is there any way to reset this warning? Or it will just magically stop flashing and the "TIMING BELT" light on the dashboard will also seize to shine?

No hand book, any suggestions where I can download one? Looking for a timing belt kit now...

Good to know, cheers, Rosco! These are 40mm outside diameter, and 4mm thickness. I also have some 60 mm, 4 mm thickness. Was a bit surprised at how much they weight when I am handling them, but I guess that's normal.

The week past I have th edash board oopen to check the lights. Found out that there was a warning light for "Timing belt", and the light and socket (H5, perhaps?) was missing. Replaced it with the seatbelt light, sure enough it lit up ever since. Checked the timing belt, seems to be in good...

Greetings, Currently designing bull bars for my troopy. Wondering if anyone has any advice of the size of tubing required? Bars will stretch across the front, go along the 1/4 panels, then goes down to form foot rests on both sides. I have ordered some 1.5" inside diam with 1/4" wall...

Really appreciate your input, Rosco. Will look into that Monday! Cheers

Good idea, mate. The engine is 1HZ, 4.2 naturally aspired manual 5 speed dashboard has no rev counter, only the speedo.

Sounds legit. But I have no idea of any elements you mentioned, snlc. Is it possible for you to post a foto, or a drawing? Just had mine for 2 months, 2009 trolly 4.2 naturally aspired.lifted about 2-3", 285/75_16 tyres, rear with 2" spacers, as I can tell. Aligned, two front wheels balanced.b...
