Krüger's Danish J4 / offroad thread

[krüger]

hi!
I live in Horsens, Denmark

and I drive a' 83' BJ42, 12H-t engine/4 speed man. 35" Kumho m/t, 2½" Terrain Tamer leafspring kit + ARB airlockers front and rear. aisin electric winch


I also have a' 1979 HJ45 pickup, currently undergoing surgery, including 12H-t engine with 5 speed H55F


I hope to post pictures of my old cruisers, builds, and from the Danish offroad community from time to time



gallery on a' Danish car site, from old bj42 pictures still with roof and on 37" tires, up until 2013 or so, including some restoration pictures..

You don't have to resize/repost. You can just link with img tags.

ok I'l try with the pictures later, the old green truck is not me but one of my "play pals" he also runs turbo ,yet no ic., this old banged up bj42 has kicked the ass of many newer rigs, and people with exspensive equipment when we have been in trial contests, so lots of fun to watch, mine is the brown one in the first link I postet, I will get to the fotos, asap. I hate those pictures with the hardtop still on


Hillcountrycruiser:
I do not have any official HP specs on the engine with the turbo, but I know of 2 other BJ's with 130HP with only the turbo, but lets just say, it has been a' very nice upgrade, there is a' guy near where I live that do some tractorpulling, he can install larger element in the fuelpump for about 800 us dollar, then the pump will be able to deliver oil to aprox 170 hp on the 3b engine, there is 1 of these in DK but I have only heard of it, but this will be my next step, when the time and money appears. I feel very atracted to 170 hp on a' 3b, just hope it dos'nt exsplode

last drive with the oilburning H engine, before 12H-t installation

[krüger]

had the chance to weigh the H engine/gear when it was hanging in the forklift anyway, that is 442 kg

 

[krüger]

...and the 12h-t with pto gear = 496 kgs

[JohnnyC]

Very nice pics!!

Good book on engine cooking 'manifold destiny' I think it was called .... I used to do it many times (when I was single) now days not so much however my kids like it ... Wife it so much I used to tell her my truck can't clean... So her job is safe lol

He He, thanks, just made the sausage cooker for fun, clean tap water in the middle chamber, and the line for the heater runs from the engine through the outer chamber before it goes in the heater in the car

uh uh a' Little more from my garage... the old 1979 Hj45 pickup had a' 12H-t fitted with a 5 speed and a' 1981 Bj45 full-float rear aksel, with j6 brakes sadly the 12H-t had a' cracked cylinder wall, so it had to be pulled out Again, and I put in a' cheap old 2H, and then fitted the 12H-t manifold with t3t4 turbo on it, went a' bit crazy and milled a' flange to weld on the 2H intake, so I could run the 12H-t intake pipe (for that ekstra original 2H-t look) runs great, but when time comes, the 12H-t will be overhauled and re-fitted..

I slapped on some ne used front fenders, 2" Terrain Tamer springs and it serves me as daily driver and trailer hauler, + made some camping setup on this one also, to use for last years Bushtaxi Meeting i Germany (2015)
