The Badger Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Heading over to New Zealand, cheapest way is to buy a landy, and then sell it when I leave. Got my sights on a TD5 90, they say it's serviced and all ok, but want to take some bits that I can leave in the truck whilst going in the great outdoors / off road / middle of nowhere... So what should I take? (can't be too heavy) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Badger Posted July 28, 2008 Author Share Posted July 28, 2008 Sat Phone hey that's ok, at least it's not "rear and front prop shafts" even though that might be sensible.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Hiatt Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 As I understand it, if you ask locally what to take they will say a mate with a Toyota. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest diesel_jim Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Spare parts to keep the vehicle running? an ECU a flywheel position sensor (or maybe two...this is the only sensor that will stop a Td5, the others if they fail, will render it into "limp home" mode, but it'll still run) an injector or 2. an injector wiring harness (both parts engine and ECU end) in tank pump. these are the usual suspects on a Td5. Oh, and a nanocom would be handy. for disabling the alarm ECU (maybe take a spare one of those too!) and installing the injectors and general fault finding.

NZ is not THAT big, but getting home / back to a shed or something will be useful... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
