gave the stag a full correction detail the other night, whilst laying down the glaze i noticed a crack in the passenger side weathershield, after having a closer look, its cracked half way along the part that clips on the body of the car, does anyone know if it can be repaired or does anyone know where i can find weathersheilds for it, ive rang round a few places and nissan warehouse in melbourne have them but there $350 trade price, i nearly collapsed when he told me,

any tips on repairing or where to find them used would be awesome,

thanks people,

you wouldn't be able to repair it witout noticing it, unless you painted over it after?

quite a number of people don't like them and you'll find them for sale privately every now and then - check the classifieds section for people wrecking stags too. i love them personally :)

thought about painting them black if i repair them untill i find some, defo not pulling them off,

whats the best type of glue to use on them???

Araldite, the stuff you have to mix up. When I bought a 2nd hand replacement, half the part which clips on the car had broken off so i Araldite'd the whole thing to the car. That shield ain't going no where.

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
