Cha

now i see its quite different normal for my case of Pajero gen4 3.8 and pathfinder r51😶 these are the my normals: Pajero v87 - winter coolant 90-97 depending on demand of the drive, summer 95-105(heated summer afternoon badayer straight up climbings). ATF i have not seen anything more than 90 because of the additional cooler. I have slightly enhanced clutch fan (extra fan blade with more silicon) and Trucooler for ATF on current Pajero Pathfinder R51 behaved pretty similar to Pajero in my hands - winter coolant 90-97 depending on demand of the drive, summer 95-105, went to 110 few times for heated summer climbings. ATF i had never measured but when coolant was mostly above 100, manual mode of gear shifter tend to not working due to overheating (display D only when in manual mode)

thanks Ishak, but something came up might have to skip this one, changed reservation already. unless i can fix it, see you next time 😶

If ckeaning and re fitting the tire back to rim dont help and it happens to be HT tire, likely there are invisible damages/cracks done to sidewall and you need to change the tires.

hi Emanuel, i will have to withdraw time due to change of plans. apologies

hi @Ishak, i m terribly sorry, I have drop this drive at such a late notice. I been called up just now for important work assignment tomorrow morning that I must compromise the attendance of this drive. I wish you all have good fun and peaceful drive tomorrow. see you around soon.

Hi Andrew, could you please DM me the alignment shop? I have done some steering work but haven't done the alignment 😅 +971528402096

hi Raziel, Ironman is good in general, i had no issue with it till the car's failed, I now drive pajero swb with dobinson MRR, I cannot do a parallel review on 2 shocks, but i also do not have any complaints on either of the shocks. no obvious shock fade on both. I see you driving BJ40, what options you have in UAE? in China there are tons of options but havent heard of any in UAE.

Get the springs too if he's decided, tried a Jimmy that's only upgraded with shocks but not the springs, ride was awfully wiggling

Hi @Simon D I hope it is not too late to jump in?

I see, I think it must be the rear locker that disabled the computer intervention. I always remove the rear locker immediately after switching to sand mode. Thanks man!

hi Luke, for the ESC did you have to put a killer switch or thru thr factory setting? I found simply pressing ESC long wouldn't kill all the computer intervention, during side sloping it was very obvious, not even completely killed in 4L

Hi @Ale Vallecchi as much I wanted to join the drive and have some chat with you all, but after relooking at my schedule of the weekend, I had to withdraw my attendance yesterday afternoon. Hope soon in the future we will have another chance to catch up. Charlie

@JeromeFJ @Beide Workumine alarm, too, didn't work and cannot reach the meeting point on time. I am really sorry for not making it today 😟😟

@Simon D @Davie Chase I just found out that Gaurav Soni's FB doesn't have any support, i will be supporting his drive. Apologies gents

Hi @Simon D hope it's not too late to join?

Noted no worries, we will keep the chaos for the next time

then we definitely exceeded 30kmh, we had a couple of refusals and lost track. but also because all these I could sync more with the Pajero!😈 look forward to more chaos this Saturaday! pleasure driving behind you - A beneficiary of your newly upgraded exhaust system during the drive😄

I knew we were moving fast but didn't think its anywhere at 28kmh average moving speed, while climbing the medium and big dunes, thank you @Looper and the rest of the convey.

+ cheapest fix, you dont need very high pressure to make this work, and it works very well for the oil sand mixture

Shocking to read this, have known you since the 3rd NB drive till now, I wish you the best in all that you do @Hisham Masaad, @Abdelghanitake care

Hi Muddassir, I have identical set up, it is the suggested set up by the garage and I have not face rubbing so far, 265 65 17, 2inch MRA, 30mm spacers. But spacers are either of the brands, I suggest you have a look of the material and weight, perhaps those are making such huge price difference.

Congrats Rafey!

Congrats Ahmad, you absolutely deserve it

i dont see there is any enforcement even if there are some regulations, the guys at petrol pump never checked on me, I could fill the cans up myself at Adnoc stations. I strap the jerry can on the second row seat instead of the tail when I was driving the LWB pathfinder, the tail part of the car tend to swing a lot and may cause damage or leakage still available for order😎

Another factor that would influence my choice between the two options is whether the trip leader is driving a SWB vehicle. When you're driving a LWB vehicle and following a SWB lead, it's crucial to have the central differential open (4H for Pajero/4H auto for Wrangler). This setup reduces the turning radius, making it easier to follow the track created by the SWB lead. I faced significant challenges when I drove the LWB Pathfinder, which lacked a central differential. In this vehicle, the front and rear wheels were locked at a 50:50 power distribution at all times when 4WD was engaged. I had to make the wheels spin excessively to stay on the path created by the SWB lead. In technical terrain and more advanced drives, deviating from the lead's track can be quite risky. After driving the SWB Pajero, I've come to realize that driving a SWB vehicle in the desert is a blessing! especially vehicles like the SWB Pajero and JL, which allow the central differential to remain open when 4WD is engaged.
