    This is EXACTLY the sentiment i get when i say design an arduino colour controller or something. "Where did you get the plans from?" i get asked. "i did it myself" i respond. And they say "nah, someone has to have done it before and you used their plans" . No... every single THING you ever touch/see/use/break/fix was originally designed/made/broken/tested by someone who sat down and said "i want to do x" lets see how we go. So I do that. Starting from scratch is not impossible. Nearly everything can be fixed or made given time and motivation. Good work Dan!

    Those Holden Trimatics are also known as traumatics for good reason. I went through three "Reconditioned" ones with leaky valve bodies before I changed over to a 4 speed depress.

    These old Patrols are so cool, and the trouble so worth it. There is something about Nissan’s, though, that is distinctly more difficult to work on than Toyota’s. I just replaced the clutch, starter, etc, on my old Nissan D21 and it was a bear. The front suspension, exhaust, chassis cross-members, and some of the front steering components had to be removed just to get the job done. Oh, and most of the interior, including the seats. It’s like the car was built as a knitted quilt where they knitted the whole thing all at once, not loop by loop. Nice work, love to see these Patrols back on the road!

    NEVER use Vaseline on a seal. If you don't believe vaseline can destroy a rubber/neoprene seal, so be it, but prove yourself wrong on a seal that's easier to replace than the rear main :)

    • @dantheman7647
      @dantheman7647 3 роки тому +1

      In my opinion any seal that was intended for use with petroleum products such as oil or atf will not be damaged by petroleum jelly (Vaseline) and I have used it on many seals.
      Both the atsg rebuild manual for the auto and the Nissan workshop manual recommend it.

      @einfelder8262 3 роки тому

      @@dantheman7647 There are thousands of opinions agreeing with my point of view. If those manuals recommend it, then the OEM gaskets are not rubber or neoprene, but your aftermarket ones could be. It's not as if there is no easy alternative to Vaseline, now is it? Using Vaseline on your condoms is also a good idea, then? Yeah, Nah.
