FEBEST Ball Joints

Hi,

I know it's been a while but which way did you end up going with the ball joints? I think I have to replace mine and it's been challenging finding the right parts.

What did you do TO your Delica today?

Last 2 months. Front lights, awning lights, interior LEDs, stereo, speakers, clean up front bar, powder coat all bars, dual batteries, controller, inverter, cup holders. It's now my dream van. Kids can't wait to go camping. How are you finding the front lights and awning lights? I am looking to do ...

Series 1 bush bar on series 2 L400?

Has anyone mounted a series 1 bush bar on a series 2 L400?

The front bumper is slightly different but I'm wondering if the mounting points will work?
Or what other modifications are needed?

Daytime running lights - BC regulations

Hi, My Delica came with the lower driving lights wired as daytime running lights (they are spliced into the ignition signal). I don't really like this setup as it is reducing the life of the driving light globes. Would the side marker lights be sufficient for daytime running lights? What have other ...

Curtain tracks

I am looking for some curtain tracks for my high roof L400.

Would also want the curtains and clips as well if you have them.

Blue smoke after valve cover gasket change?

Hey guys, So after I picked up my (new to me) L400 V6 I noticed an oil leak from the drivers side valve cover seal. Took it back to dealer, they fixed it. I just picked it up from them today, and was driving home and noticed a lot of blue smoke coming out of the exhaust. All I could see behind me wa...

Re: Insulating the L400 rear cabin?

On my L300 I filled all the panel cavities with polyester insulation, like you use on a house. It stops the air in the cavities from circulating, but doesn't retain moisture. Leave a 2" gap at the bottom so any water can drain out freely. For bonus points I'd remove all the interior trim (incl...

Re: Super select front wheel lights flashing while driving?

the green for the front diff is a single bulb and will continue to flash if the vacuum actuator or rod at the front diff jam or sieze. But the most common issue is the vacuum solenoid pair behind the engine bay fuse box which can fail internally. the vacuum can at the front diff can also be a probl...

Re: Insulating the L400 rear cabin?

Thanks for the reply!

I think I will first make some insulating covers for the windows and then take some panels off the rear cabin and add either rigid foam or reflective insulation where possible.

Will update the thread when that happens.

L400 V6 (6G72) Engine Service Manual Here!

Hey guys,

After spending about an hour scouring the internet for the correct manual, I finally found it and wanted to share it here.

It's for a Mitsubishi Magna TJ which shares the 6G72 engine.

Hope this helps someone else!

Insulating the L400 rear cabin?

So I did a search and found a few posts from a few years ago, but looking for a bit more input from you knowledgeable folks! I am thinking of insulating our l400 this weekend. I plan to sleep in the van in the winter, on overnight ski trips. My plan is to use XPS or EPS rigid foam boards for the lar...

Re: Super select front wheel lights flashing while driving?

Thanks for replying. I have still not taken possession of the car from the dealership (they are getting it ready). I have contacted them and hope that they have the integrity to acknowledge the problem and fix it before I pick it up! When I took the car for a test drive I asked them about the flashi...
