The 1000cc that was in the SJ410 was a 4 cylinder.

She's currently got no low range Image, apparently I have to replace a rubber bush on the transfer case (common SJ problem)

So, parts are so hard to come by, that you doubt you'll be able to get it fixed in the next 3 weeks?!? :shock:

I'll be sure to add this little nugget when it goes on Marketplace... :D :lol: ;)

It's just a HDPE bush that Chris @ Pretoria Cote makes himself and sells. AFAIK or remember it is two parts, take out stubby lever, undo screws that covers TC and insert.

I finally have most of the parts for Sami's first service, just waiting in the water pump belt.

On Friday I will hopefully have time to change all the fluids. Image
