    Coolant leak

    My 1982 BJ42 lx RHD with a 3B engine developed a coolant leak yesterday. It is somewhere at the back of the block on the injector side, near the starter and behind the edic motor. I can’t seem to locate it yet, but need to get a mirror. I have done some research here and I am hoping it is a...

    When to think about injector replacement?

    As I have been driving my cruiser more often these days with all the kids home driving my other vehicles, Ihave recently been thinking about my injectors. When should I start thinking of having the injectors serviced? I am not having any problems (knock on wood!). The rig starts quickly, does...

    Big puddle

    Ok, so I am not much of a “mudder” more of a beach off-roader, but I have been watching the Expedition Overland series during this downtime and decided to hit a local trail to ward off the boredom. Things were going great, fun little trail about a mile from my house ... hard to find in Mass. I...

    Diesel Fuel Prefilter?

    Anyone recognize this diesel prefilter filter? It sits just above my sedimenter. This is an Aussie BJ42 . (Sorry, couldn’t get the photos to rotate...) can I just replace the paper insert? how do I do it so I don’t get air in the system? (my primer pump is not very good) no

    Rear hatch switch troubleshooting

    The rear hatch switch on the wife’s 2013 200 series LC is not working.... Where do I start troubleshooting? I can’t find a fuse on the diagram. Found a thread that says remove the switch and jump to test the actuator?

    transmission help

    posted in the Diesel section as well: Gents, I bought a new old stock H41 transmission still in the crate from BTB off eBay recently to put in my 1982 BJ42. I got it because it had the 3B diesel input shaft. I specifically asked if it had the 40 top cover, and was told yes. I sent my VIN to...

    Gents, I bought a new old stock H41 transmission still in the crate from BTB off eBay recently to put in my 1982 BJ42. I got it because it had the 3B diesel input shaft. I specifically asked if it had the 40 top cover, and was told yes. I sent my VIN to "ensure direct fitment". Unfortunately...

    transmission trouble

    Recently took the rig on a trip to the beach, overloaded on the way, but did fine. Drove on the beach in deep sand in 4 low, through some crater-like puddles, no issues while on island. All went well on the trip until about 2 miles from home...traveling around 60 mph at about 3000 rpm on the...

    How much can I carry?

    Taking a week long trip and bringing 4 adults and a dog in my BJ42. How much can I carry? I have a galavanized steel roof rack and a front and rear hitch rack. I am going to look like the Beverly Hillbillies, but how much is too much?

    Leaking rear brakes

    Ok, I know, there are a thousand threads on this, but they are difficult to sort through, and I keep getting distracted by all the cool pictures of conversions. My brake light came on and I found some fluid leaking out of the rear right drum. I assume a leaking cylinder. What are my simple...

    BJ42 LX seat protectors?

    Anyone out there with a BJ42 LX have ideas where to find seat protectors for my LX? Pretty specific as the rear seat is the forward facing, zebra type. I want to take the top off this summer, but want to protect the zebra fabric. Pics of what you guys have would be great. I have the driver...

    BJ42 reusable air filter replacement

    Gents, I have a 1982 Aussie BJ42lx with a reusable oil bath air filter. Can I just replace the filter element with a disposable one? I don't really want to clean the element and deal with the oil bath. There was no oil in the canister when I got the truck. Anyone know the right replacement...

    Wanted  200 series hitch cover

    Anyone have a 200 series hitch cover that they aren't using or laying around after upgrading to an off-road rear bumper? The wife lost hers. 2013 Magnetic Grey would be perfect. Anyone else have any ideas if this is cost prohibitive?

    bj42 brake pads

    Anyone know the best/correct front disc brake pads for my Aussie 1982 BJ42lx? Are they the same for all 1982 Fj40s? The BJ42 doesn't come up on the search at the usual NAPA/autozone places. Should I get OEM from Beno? Or are there newer / better / cheaper replacement parts? Thanks.

    m416 cover

    I have a nice m416 trailer that i was considering putting a cover on. I saw a hard fiberglass truck bed tonneau-type cover on eBay for reasonable price. It may be a little big. Anyone know if this will work? Search wasn't very helpful. Thanks

    differential trouble?

    I changed my tires on my 1982 Aussie BJ42 LX RHD from 235s to 265s and now when I turn left at about 20 mphs, I hear a grinding noise from the front of the rig. It sounds like it is coming from the center in the transmission tunnel or right wheel well. It is worse if I am leaning to the...

    Australian trailer wiring

    I have an Aussie BJ42lx with 7 pin round trailer plug. I orderd an adapter online to attach my m416 trailer. I wired the adapter as instructed (which is for European) to a four pin flat female which didn't work, then found out that OZ wiring is different. All works well now except the brake...

    Power steering leaking.

    I have a RHD 1982 BJ42 LX with a 3B and power steering. The power steering is leeking from somewhere around the reservoir or pump. What are my best options? Replace with aftermarket new (I have heard mention about Saginaw?), find a used one here?, rebuild with new gaskets? Is the pump...
