Oh yeah, I like those valve caps a lot but they seem pretty expensive. And yeah, axles would be a great thing to import. I'll take one of those heavy duty ones that can take a locker! That's the H260, right? That would be awesome...

Ian, do you know where to get an oilpan gasket? Cause I wouldnt mind going ahead and checking that stuff... ya know... just to be safe and sure...

Dogwater- Did you hear any knocking before the connecting rod went?

Interesting on the engine Greg, sounds like who ever rebuilt it forgot to do it right. The Patrols I seen it is #1 piston, maybe revved to high and the piston siezes...dunno.

The valve stem caps I got from him off ebay for a lot less than $36! He makes Patrol key chains that I bought before, the caps and few other items. He and I worked out a deal so I should have this stuff forsale on the RMP&O webby.

You can get an oil pan gasket from Nissan still, part number is 11121-85060 I also got an oil pan from them last fall but it was expensive and is now on the 64 KL60.

Coolness... Ill have to get one and check out those caps!

When you rebuild an engine, youre supposed to replace those bolts, the head bolts, and some others Im too tired to list right now... Because they have a requirement that you torque them so tight the bolts stretch and are about at their limit. If they are re-used they will already be stretched and be in danger of breaking!

Maybe thats what that guy did, maybe?

Well, only in the last few seconds. By the time I let off the gas and pulled over it had already thrown it.
