Green Machine Rebuild Starts 5-9-16 - Patrollee Help Needed

[L60Boerne]

Mr Roadkill, I scored the exact hose at www.Onlineautomotive.com. Mackay CH1784. One for Presidio Patrol (CCV4) and one for CCV5. They are a retailer from your neck of the woods.
Thank you so much.

Hi L60Boerne,

good to hear you can get hold of one of those without too much drama !

Full disclosure - I looked far and wide for a hose to cut down for the G60 bypass hose, before realising the N14 top hose would work...and I own an N14 Pulsar...

cheers,
D

Patrol Forum,

Spark Plug Wires for 1963 Patrol

The compatibility parts list i(plus all forum searches I tried) dentifies Nissan part # 22450-80029 but they no longer stock that part number. Does anyone have a reference for the same suitable for the Petronix system? The spark plug # listed from O Reilly's still works.

Thanks in advance,
L60Boerne

Just an update:

A). 4WD sent us the wrong carrier bearings. We are trying to source then locally.
B). We have received two Petronix systems ......neither of which fit my 63. I will be sending pictures of my distributor in hopes someone can confirm it is an OEM component.
C). Rebuilt carb from Dynamic... awesome!
More to follow.

If i remember correctly when i was assisting Esteban over the phone when he was rebuilding his diff. I do believe the aftermarket carrier bearings are thinner than the originals, everything else was exact except the thickness. I do believe Esteban purchased some shims to take up the difference. Is this what you are experiencing? Hopefully Esteban saved part numbers and notes, because he did an excellent job rebuilding his!

Thank Ron, we may go that route. The ones 4WD sent us were much thicker. I send a pic this Eve.

I rebuilt my diffs and I believe I sourced all the bearings locally but I cant recall exactly and I wont be home for another week but when I get home I can check.

Thanks Justin, Rafael thinks he can rebuild it locally too, just wish we had it right the first time.
This is just a tip for those ordering from Greg at 4WD. He is very patient and helpful but we just need to work out the kinks for those using the compatible parts list. It maybe right, perhaps we need to express it differently to Greg so he picks the parts.
The big bearing is from my Patrol, the little one is from Greg.

Yes, thats what we ran into on Estebans. If you can find the larger bearing, that would be great, but i believe you are going to have to put shims on the outside of this bearing to make it work.
