Hey guys, so unfortunatly the time has come to sell of my beloved 4x4.

its a great car very reliable as i daily it everyday, goes under the noes of cops (went through an rbt last night no dramas)

Just an EOI atm as im not sure if i wanna sell but thought id see what sort of interest i get

Ford Maverick 1990

Manual (5 speed)

4.2 diesel (quite rare)

416,XXX on the body

200,000 odd on the engine (engine had a rebuild at 200,000 ish)

Mods:

- 3" dobinson lift (fullkit)

- 33" toyo muddies x 6 (2 with 80% tread, 4 with 60%)

- Snorkel

- Heavy Duty excedy clutch

- Brand new slave/master cylinder

- Brake pads and front rotors replaced only 100 odd kms ago

- adj pan hard ords

- 3" straight through exhaust (full Stainless)

- 3" extractors

- radiator acid cleaned

- Arb front bar

- 240 x 2 lightforce spotties

- 100w x rear lights

- Fire extinguisher

- Extended brake lines

- Alternator bushs replaced

- Brand new starter motor

- After market head Unit

- Uhf radio unit

- Heavy duty cenutray battery (mother trucker cost me almost 300 bucks!)

Im sure there is more, thats all i can think of atm..

The car is 110% reliable first start everytime! no denieing here it has been used for 4x4 and its a very capable truck yet can still be used for daily uses.... around town is VERY good on diesel.

The bad:

- had a slight bingle with a tree ( nothing major) but all been fixed (punched out) just needs a buff and a spray and you wouldnt even notice.

- One of the exhaust studs has broken so it has a slight leak.

Pics to follow-

NOTE: Does not come with the cb arial as somebody nicked it off the car.

Price: looking for 9k with the muddies or 8k without.

SWAPS: Cheap daily.

Cheers Lucas

EDIT: WOnt let me upload photos??

    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
    • It's been quite the ordeal but hey, at least you figured it out.
    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow
