While having a very slow day fishing this past week I had an idea that I think may have some merit. Most Delica owners expound on all the camping and back road driving they intend to do once they have it 'set up' for camping. If this is the case we should have a vast knowledge of many of the...

My first contribution this year is Face Lake. I haven't been to it for a few years but it is normally a nice quite place for day fishing from Kamloops. Face Lake is a high elevation lake ( 5200' ) which has a few cabins and the Mile High Resort on it. It is about 20 km from the Logan Lake exit on...

I totally different take nothing about repairs, just trip reports, how you use your delica, etc

Example today I loaded the chain saw and lined the back of the delica with a tarp. Grabbed my best bud (wheeler my dog) and went out and got a load of maple and cedar. Filled the delica up to the...

I'm not sure if it's just me and a few Delica drivers that I've talked to but it's almost like Husky is still serving Winter diesel. Why they have started selling Winter diesel in the Lower Mainland is beyond me as it never gets to -15°. In around November of...

I am writing this because it seems as though some people believe there is some almighty force that decides when and where meets are happening and that they are just simple delica owners who would love to attend if one were scheduled on a convenient date in their area. This is not the case as many...

We should have more of these more often.

Agreed, in that case, it's up to you to make sure attendance is good! The problem is that even when we hold them every 6 months we still don't always have a great turn-out.

Rear end problems L400 Space Gear

I have a 1996 Delica L400 Space Gear and the rear right axle is frozen but the left side turns. Calipers have been removed, so it's not brakes.
I can drive the van forward and backward, but the right rear wheel drags, left turns no problem. WTF?

The title pretty much says it all.

Here is my old set of wheels, a 1981 Mazda Rx-7. I had it for about five years, it got broken into twice, stolen once and then stored for two years while I cleaned it up to what you see now (replaced all the door seals, repainted it, added the ground effects, a...

I'm eyeing up a 1995 L400 Delica spacegear, jasper model.
221,139kms mostly on the hwy. New batteries and tires within the past year. Recently redid turbo, needs new overdrive switch

included:
-solar panel
-engine oil/filter
-powder-coated rock sliders
-roof kayak pads
-misc fluids...

Checked the frame for rust yet? Common spots are the frame below the batteries, as well as above the rear bump stops.

If you still really want it get her checked out by a good mechanic in your area.

His comments at being refuted during the Tham Luang cave rescue suggested a monster ego, board line megalomaniac, and was surprising.

Nasty words directed at someone putting their lives on the line to save the lives of the youngsters because they didn't want your idea? Wow

I was reviewing my friends list the other day and realized 2 things:
1: A lot of the friends don't appear to be active anymore.

2: I joined in Nov. 2008 and always thought it was 2009. I guess I've had my van for 11 years not 10 as I thought.

It made me curious how may of the ' initial members '...

I joined in '08. I keep checking in but I haven't been too active. I had an L300 for 10 years until I crashed it in October. Just bought an L400 jasper. I've gone from 375 000 on the odometer to 53 000! I'll probably be a little more active as I get this van going.

That's one hell of a rig,...

Hello Folks,
I'm selling my roof rack. It was the only thing i could salvage from the wreck. It used to belong to NXSKI, I bought it off of him a few years ago, who bought it off of someone else from on here. It was custom built for the L300. I'll take $250?

Last post

I meant to post this in the L300 sub group. Can't seem to figure out how to move it. Can the admins move it for me?
