SOLD.
Health reasons force me to sell Gertrude. All deatails in my ROTW thread. I'm looking for around NZ$13500 (currently around US$8000)
Don't know about shipping but there seem to be a lot coming in from Australia at present so it could be a viable option for someone who wants a good sound truck with everything done - and that's a bit different to your typical US truck.
Price includes a lot of parts - am happy to discuss keeping these and reducing price.
Thanks for looking.
4.3 litre fully built 2F motor, polished, ported, balanced, pulls 7500rpm, 10:1 compression, cam, extractors, modified oiling sytem, HEI dissy, mallory coil. Dyno'd at 218hp at rear wheels.
Internal snorkel
Dual fuel - LPG/petrol
Front and rear diff locks - rear ARB, front Howat ball bearing locker
F/f rear diff. Front diff widened 150mm
Full bars
Modified suspension, lift, body lift.
PTO winch, centre mounted, can pull from front or rear - suspect rating at around 18,000 lbs. Both winch and pto have been modifed. Winch was fully rebuit approx 2004. Near new 70m winch cable (9mm)
4.88 diff gears
Trucked body, all alloy rear panelwork incl storage area
Air operated rear fiddles
5 x Bead locks with 37x12.5x16 Maxxis Creepy Crawlers approx 1/2 worn
4 wheel discs, full cage (tested), power steering, on board air (+ electric backup)
Longfields
For more details see the ROTW thread
Comes with extensive spares package including 2 x longfields, 2 x alternators, starter, spare diff gears (all these parts brand new), parts motor, g/box, t/case. Chromoly rear axles (new - havnt got around to fitting them yet), spare HEI dissy
(happy to discuss price reduction with successful bidder if spares not required...)
Problems I know about:
-Oil leak r/f axle seal (have new h/d seal which should fix it)
-Motor not reving as it should - suspect it's the LPG reg (had to replace it since when it ran better) - think it's under fuelling under high load. Have air/fuel guage and sender (included but not fitted) which should prove this...
-dog clutch on winch wont disengage - I just spool it out in reverse - have planned design change to fix this
- front springs could probably use a reset
truck also comes with hi-lift, strops, snatch blocks, tree protector, hand winch etc... Two fire extinguishers - well mounted - 1 x 1kg, 1 x 2kg. Extensive instrumentation including memory tach, oil temp, air/fuel etc. Suspension has been highly modified with custom springs allowing extreme articulation. (see pics) Wheelbase has been extended. Pinion angle of front diff has been changed to prevent ujoint binding at pinion. Has greasable shackles.
