Re: Replacing front drivers side window
Hi all, So I took advantage of the lack of rain and finally got it put in right. Snelson was correct, it was not in the track in the front. I managed to free the window by loosening the bolts again and just wiggling, and moving it up and down with the switch and my hands, eventually it came free. I ...

Re: Replacing front drivers side window
Geese your good at this, that is totally what happened. The front part is not in the groove, but on the inside of the piece of the rubber where the groove is and the inner door part. And she is stuck mighty good, the back will go down about a cm but the front stays where it is, even with a bit of ex...

Re: Replacing front drivers side window
Thanks a bunch snelson, I have no problem saying that I am not in any way, shape, or form a mechanical guy, but eventually I got both tracks lined up following what you said. Thanks for the reply, sure wasn't obvious for me though, still a good amount of cursing and swearing in the pouring rain :-) ...

Re: Replacing front drivers side window
Okay, finally got it in. I found that by removing the screws that holds the side mirror on allows the door panel to me "bent" a bit outwards allowing it to slide in. I still can't get the rails to line up though, if pooch or nelson happen to be reading this can you clarify what you meant b...

Re: Replacing front drivers side window
Thanks for the replies guys. I'm stuck though, I got the old window out, got the out side black water guard thing off, but I cannot figure out how to get the new window in. I get the front side in and the back side doesn't line up, get the back in and the front doesn't line up. I'll check the l400 t...

Re: Replacing front drivers side window
Which once again proves that I can't do a successful search on this site
So it doesn't sound that difficult… famous last words. I'll give it a try myself.
Thanks for finding what I couldn't.
Cheers

Replacing front drivers side window
Hi all, I've done some searching but can't find a step by step guide to do this. My window was smashed a few days ago and I found a replacement, but don't know if I will be able to install it myself. Has anyone done it? Any special tools or skills required… because I don't have either of those lol. ...

Re: Faulty fuel gauge
We all know and love the querky ways of our vans, so I have an update. I have been dealing with this faulty fuel gauge for probably around a year now, but just a few days ago I filled up as normally and guess what? Yup, it is working perfectly again with me doing squat to it. Im just above 1/2 tank ...

Re: Faulty fuel gauge
Okay, well that's too bad. I was hoping that there was something that I could just unplug, unscrew and replace but I guess not. I will just leave it as is, maybe next time it's up on a hoist i'll feel inspired to give it a look.
Thanks for your replies.

Re: Faulty fuel gauge
From what i can tell from the posts your sending unit is working and your gauge is working. The only problem now is the float attached to the sending unit solid or hallow , if it is hallow it has cracked and fuel has got inside it there for weighing it down. That is one of the things that can set t...

Faulty fuel gauge
Hi all, I have been putting up with a completely inaccurate fuel gauge for a while and thought i'd ask if anyone has any ideas. Basacally after I fill the tank, my guage never shows full, but around 3/4 and it goes down from there, ex I have 250 clicks since my last fill and my gauge shows less than...

Re: I'm needing some post-accident advice...
I had an accident recently which was totally my fault, and ICBC had no problem with my claim, the damage was to the front bumper on the bull bar, bull bar, lights and the rest of the bumper. The word write off was never uttered, and I think the repair will cost several thousand. So don't worry it's ...

Re: Canadian Safari's
Ahh Nissan Patrol turned up some more interesting results. Kind of sad that I discovered this, as it looks ideal for what I would like, but of course cannot have ;-(
