47's HJ47 ute build

[Indestructible 47]

let there be light they are like spot lights those reversing lights.

 

[Indestructible 47]

also, my Uniden setup... just fits up and behind there..

 

[Indestructible 47]

can someone tell me what that sensor is? also the cable that i have circled is the exact length??

 

[chappohj47]

The cable looks like a main wire for glow plugs colour wise and I have never noticed that sensor on other 2h motors I've had

 

[Indestructible 47]

That's what i thought too, but my glow plugs work perfectly. It's just funny that it's the exact right length to that sensor. If it is something to do with the glow plugs, could that be the reason that the 2h runs a little smokey? (apart from the fact that it's only being idled since 2005 and only done 2000km/s since then)

installed a new radiator with some new coolant... took the chance to paint a few parts... check out the temp after 15 mins of running it reasonably hard.

 

[Indestructible 47]

a few more.. probably too many but more the merrier

Looking good mate

thanks for your interest mate. yeah it's coming along but trying to get my blinking school work done to please those sad markers, isn't getting any easier. thankfully only got a little more than a term left for the year!

 

[Indestructible 47]

finished school for the year. time to make some progress!

well, I picked up another front axle to replace my shot one, so hopefully I'll get that in sometime soon. also primed up my front bib hopefully get some colour on it soon. also need to weld up the nasty's in the floor and along the front of the bonnet and paint them up too. I'll get some pics up in due course...

humm... rego soon?)

 

[Indestructible 47]

front bib with primer...
also stripped down and rebuilt the air conditioner unit; haven't got any pictures of it clean though..

(loading photos up is like beating a at the moment)
the spray gun is an eastwood BTW

 

[Indestructible 47]

Taha32 - this is it.

 

[cult45]

Taha32 has rebuilt me a nice PTO box.... more to come...

 

[Indestructible 47]

I received my new or replacement front axle on the weekend. it's in really good nick and the brakes look to be reasonably freshly rebuilt. will slide it under in a couple of weeks. the only issue that is not an issue is one of the hubs, the drivers side, is a warn but I will swap it out for a nice ASIAN to accompany the other after rego...

as usual far too many pics

 

[cult45]

Pullin' big days on holidays 47 to get more done on the rig?

Pullin' big days on holidays 47 to get more done on the rig?

you bet, just waiting on a few nice parts..

 

[Indestructible 47]

sorry about the poor pics but the PTO box arrived today thanks to the work of Taha32
done a very nice job at the rebuild

 

[Indestructible 47]

again sorry bout the pics but I have given the axle a coat of paint so the people down at rego will believe me when I say it has been freshly rebuilt
hopefully I can get it under sometime this week or next week, see how I go. my cousin it going to pull the cruiser to my uncles hoist, about 1 hour away on another buddy's car trailer. my cousin has a very nice 80 series cruiser with a 1-hdt with a cross country intercooler at the moment, I'll let him explain more has a thread on It somewhere....
