On a previous video I could not fit this Bendix cylinder because my brake pipe fastener was to small to hold the pipe .I took it to Oudtshoorn to a brake pipe and hydraulic pipe fixing place . The guy didn't charge me for fitting a bigger pipe fitting . So today I'm fitting the pipe and the new cylinder.

Many thanks for candid explanation about brakes conversion. I have wanted to change my front brakes from drum to disk system. Good videos Charles and keep posting more. From Nairobi Kenya
My brakes are very hard to press as I dont have a booster. There isnt very much room for a booster on my pickup. how do you get a vacuum from a diesel?
thank you very much for the explanation. Thank you for your time, very grateful. You are very kind. kind regards 
Fantastic videos Erick keep posting more of them. Watching you from Kenya Nairobi. I love your work!
Thank you! Will do! And stay safe.
Excuse my curiosity, I was wondering if you have thought about changing the brake system to front discs, and how possible that would be. It's something I missed asking in another previous video.
I think I could make a video to explain that problem.
Good job sir!
Quel est la matière que vous avez mis sur le joint de culasse c'est une peinture blanche ou autre chose merci
Exelente gran trabajo maestro ..
✔️👍
What a day of work, the pickup responding very well. Beautiful landscapes, almost three hours of video and they were entertaining. I hope you got a good deal for that delivery. 🖐️
Glad you enjoyed it
Good job repairing the radiator. You make it look easy, but it has its complexity. I say this because I was doing just that a short time ago, and it was quite difficult for me. Cute puppet too. greetings!
Jess. That job took many times longer than the on that video . On the video I only did the four corners that was leaking and did not show the struggling on the sides. I had the top pipe off as well to solder under the pipe.
Another great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Another great video!
Thanks again!
@charleserickson7503 Oh! excuse me for that. something made me repeat the message
That is fine .
Your perseverance is admirable. I have exactly the same problem with the same bolt (and from what I read in another comment I think it must be a recurring problem) but I chose to cover it and tighten the water pump with only the four remaining bolts. Anyway, I think your method is the correct. Kind regards
Thank you and my kind regards.
great job! I hope it works well after the effort. A while ago I saw a mechanic who, in extreme cases, advised gluing the joint with "locktite 515" (I don't know if there is an equivalent glue, he said only with that glue and a very small amount)
My Engine has a pump without a screw in this place. Only 4 screws?
That is interesting . All the XD cylinder heads I now of has 5 screws. The one screw between the pipe fittings most of the time brake off when trying to unscrew it.
Super vidéo, merci de m’avoir découvert le paysage. De plus la 404 démarre bien au quart de tour avec un joli ralenti.
I noted the same, just accelerate from standstill simply by easing off of the clutch, lots of torque low down, even fully loaded.
Nice Landscapes!
Great video, I enjoyed it a lot. thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching
Nice trip!
It was also for me thank you very mush.
Great job sir!
Thanks for watching and have a great time.
Hello. Do you have any idea if there is possible to fit an xd88 or xd90 cylinder head to a xd2 motor?
my 71 pickup 404 diesel is from S. Africa, was that the first year?
It could have been yes.
Are they all floor shift? or is the 4 speed column shift?
They were all Colum shift some 504 to . There were 404 sedans with a floor shift . Both my pickups are converted to the BA 10 5sp and the other one BA 7 5sp The one is powered with XD2 motor the other one with XD 3 motor.
Hello sir , great video i have a lucas 054 pump on my UMM alter which is a peugeot xd3e non turbo you said about shims that need taking out for a more advanced richer mix , do you have any photos or videos you could show me please 👍
Good luck. Thanks for the tips about the gaskets. I hope the next one holds.
excellent video. I hope it turned out well this time and for a long time
Well done Mr charles.
Sir, I can only wish you good luck in this project. I am in a similar situation with my 504, but without all of your knowledge.
I have a 404 Diesel Pick up, xd88 engine. I know people have 5 speed gearbox in cars like mine, hear shifter at the column. In a french Forum, I read that only the ba7/5 can be used, and only if it comes from a 505 Break Diesel or a 504 Pick up diesel. I‘m looking for a 505 Break 2.5 diesel, I think the best engine for a 404 Pick up.
Hi sir. That can be your quickest converting option . The 2,5 engines are the best.

Thank you so very much.
Just want to commend the power of the old Peugeot 404 pickup en it,s rugged reputation
my pickup is the same orange color and RHD from S. Africa but now in California. I did think about turbo but you are right, there isn't very much room on that side of the engine. is this engine much more powerful than the original xd88? My mechanic wanted to do the engine swap like you did but I wanted to keep the column shift so decided to rebuild the original engine. I think my box is a bit different to the european 404 picks up and maybe different to yours?. I read some were made in Mozambique?
Very detailed video
Are you in south africa?
Yes. .
Hallo I'm in South Africa.
What engine do you have in this one? We, as Peugeot family, never bought the 505's and onwards, since the build quality was not as good under SIGMA. These 505'snever came with diesel engines here in SA. Only 2.0 petrol in different states of tune.
Good day .In this one there is an XD 2 diesel . It's bored out to 95 mm . There is a video out with the math's done to get the compression ratio it has now.The compression ratio + - 24,858 : 1
There is one Northmead Cars & Road ZA .1982 Peugeot 505 diesel Gld R 36,500.for sale very well maintained.
The Sigma car wasn't good . Both my cars early 1980's cars I replaced the 2L petrol engines with diesel XD 2 engines from 504 models 1977 to 1980 . The engine in the 404 white pickup is an XD 3 diesel 505 imported engine . That one is nice .
@@charleserickson7503 Those XD2 engines were fantastic for their time and even still today. That time dad bought a new 504GLD in 1977, it performed much better than a 300D Merc, which was almost double the price. I will look for the 505D that you mentioned. Must say, the 404 bakkie sounds good with the later engine. Their starters were rubbish in the original 1.9D.
Love the blue color! My father had a 505 diesel wagon here in the US. In fact he had to buy another when he couldn't get parts for the first one. A white one and a brown one, automatics. Where did you get your hat? I need one like that.
The Peugeot hat the club gave it to me the other two are faded. I always wanted a 504 GLD in this color. When I saw this one I bought it. When I was at school in the 1970's a farmer had a 404 diesel pickup (bakkie) in this blue color. Enjoy your car and have nice days.

Helo oom kan ek oom se nommer kry asb het hulp nodig met my peugeot bakkie se ratkas asb en dankie
Интересно, как всегда! Привет из украины.
Hi . I can't get this thing to translate your scripts.
@@charleserickson7503 Hi! I'm from Ukraine! Watching your video. I have the same engine on my DAF400.
It's amazing where all the bits come from.
Hi there. It is very interesting for me too , and how it gets here.
Does this one still have the original 1.9 diesel engine? I remember how we used to sukkel starting them in winter
Hi. This pickup has a 3,7: 1 diff ratio a BA 5 speed gearbox with a 0,821:1 5th overdrive and a 505 XD 3 Diesel motor in it.
XD 3's are 2,5 L engines. Normal aspirated or turbo charged XD 3 T.
@@charleserickson7503 nice! A modernized version of the old one. I always see the petrol versions being restored, but NEVER a diesel.
Hallo there .The yellow one is a restored Diesel but now powered by an XD 2 motor. This white one was a petrol powered L d v . They are very thirsty on fuel . I can not cart fire wood with a petrol driven L d v maybe gold, it has a better price to pay for the fuel it burns up. My fuel consumption of this XD 3 diesel has a fuel consumption between 13km / Liter to 18 km/Liter. The petrol L d v I drove in 1987 gave 6 km/Liter .
@@charleserickson7503 wow! Never knew the petrol is so thirsty. The diesel engines you use are the correct ones they should have had in the early days. Those 1.9l d engines were reliable, but SLOW and difficult to start.
nice work
Good luck with the tire.Hope you got it fixed.
I got it fixed at a price of ZAR 120. not good. Keep well thanks.
Nice scenery and nice drive.
Thank you for looking at this video, stay well . I shall see if I can make more videos of the country site.
Hallo .Thank you for enjoying the scenery . There will be more drives out. Thank you stay well.
Looks nice. I guess very difficult to keep the column shift with the 5 speed lol! cheers. Did you need to lift the front too? what size tires? cheers!
Wow this is great. I almost went this route but was able to repair my engine. My pickup was originally from s. africa. Now in California. Same orange color.
