Jesseb369 Posted May 24, 2010 Author Report Posted May 24, 2010 (edited) Got my AJPS shifter kit today and some UV joints made by QH. Both Items Look pretty quality. I'll see how they go in the coming days! Edited May 24, 2010 by Jesseb369 Quote
Jesseb369 Posted May 29, 2010 Author Report Posted May 29, 2010 Time to do some more shopping Me thinks :blinks: full oil change of engine, tranny and diff coming her way Today I think. Quote
Jesseb369 Posted May 30, 2010 Author Report Posted May 30, 2010 (edited) Got some work done today and yesterday. bought some engine oil and gearbox oil and filter and fuel filter. Fitted and filled all except for gear box oil. Put the shifter rebuild kit in and clean up the shifter a fair a bit and all is well. Changed the drivers door hinges from a ke70 and put in a new but used seat belt in and also tried to install a head unit but buggered up the cassette play surround with the dye grinder. The hole is now to large for the Head unit. So if I fail at finding a new one i will make one out of Aluminium sheeting, Unless anyone wants to help me out with a cassette played holder/ surround. Next weekend will be rust and paint fixtures,hopefully. Still looking for a Tow bar, Driver side front adjustable seat rail and cassette surround to fit a head unit in. If you have anything lying around Just tell me what you have also. Any help will be appreciated. CHEERS FELLAS Edited May 30, 2010 by Jesseb369 Quote
Jesseb369 Posted May 31, 2010 Author Report Posted May 31, 2010 Reconditioned my windscreen wipers today. Look bloody beautiful. Everyone was telling me to buy new ones. But $10 dollars and they will last another 25 years. Hahaha! Quote
Cream Dream Posted May 31, 2010 Report Posted May 31, 2010 The T50 rebuild kit the best $55 i have ever spent, my shifts are that much better now good work man nice clean AE71, love that interior trim to, keep up the good work. :D Quote
Jesseb369 Posted May 31, 2010 Author Report Posted May 31, 2010 yeah man. Big improvement over the shit bushes that were just in chunks and paste. My Gear box exterior is VERY oily because that last boot you pull up the shift to get to the bushes has perishes and cracked. So over the years the oil has Gradually seeped and splashed out. but I bought 5L of Nulon easy shift 80 weight oil to go in and ill give the gear box a good degrease aswel. The Car is quite clean for living in the Tropics all its life and the interior is lovely. It will come up nice with a wet vac and shampoo. Thanks for the comment cream dream. Your car is super horny man! I love wagons. Quote

Haha lolz at your last comment, yea my rubber boot was a bit torn and cracked as well but wasnt leaking much all my bushes in my shifter were long gone as well just granules and rubber paste haha, when i drained my gear box i only got about 300ml of sloppy paste out of it instead of 2.7L of oil haha, i also put a new speedo drive in as my speedo drive was fecked, after a few days i really felt the difference in the smoothness of shifts after the fresh oil worked its magic. :D Quote
Jesseb369 Posted May 31, 2010 Author Report Posted May 31, 2010 Ohh True, I have a feeling my box's oil hasn't been changed since factory :D So it will be interesting to see what comes out. Is there anyway or anything to put into the gear box that will circulate and clean out the crud... Like abit of diesel or an aftermarket solution. OR do you just put new oil in it and drive for a month then drop the oil again and refill? Also I bought some UV joints for my tail shaft. Should I fit them before I fill up the box because, Will oil piss out the back if I take out the shaft? Otherwise that would be a waste of oil if that does happen ;) please shed some light. Danke schon! Quote
