I need a truck...

**OTEP** · November 1st, 2002 05:03 PM

Budget is Php 350-400Th. Primarily for off-roading.

Gusto ko sana solid front axle.

Ang mga nasa isip ko ngayon:
*bj40 na Land Cruiser
*solid front axle hi-lux's

Btw, dapat may airconditioning at power steering kasi gagamitin din sanang pang-coding.

As usual, it should be diesel powered.

Any help or suggestions are most welcome. Salamat!

Otep , gusto m,o na rin ng truck ha ? Ano ba advantage at disadvantage ng

DSM619,

Mas marunong po ako mangalikot ng diesel, eh. Also diesels can tolerate water more. Wala kasing spark plugs, distrubutor, high tension wires and other electric ignition stuff.

Lakas din ng low end torque. Most diesels are making peak torque as early as 2,500 rpm. Perfect for slow off road work.

kung ganun paano ang ignition system nito ?

**mbt** · November 1st, 2002 07:20 PM

by compression ang ignition ng diesel... the a/f mixture spontaneously ignites courtesy of the 22:1 (varies, but usually in this range) compression ratio

otep,

mag ATV ka na lang :mrgreen: ... ok yung BJ40! how about an early 90's Patrol or something from that time?

Sir Otep::: BJ40!!!!!!!! :wink:

dsm::: Tama si mbt. Very high compression of air wil result in very very high temp. Fuel is then added to the mix.... then..... kabooom!!! detonation!!!!! During cold ambient temperatures, heat is initially provided by glow plugs (think soldering irons) to help starting, but after that, the diesel engine does all the combusting itself :D the engine is stopped by cutting off fuel, unlike in gas engines where you cut off electricity.

BJ40 would be fine.
pick-up ba or hard-top?
madalang ang pick-ups.

Olive Drab,

May backseat pa ba pick up na BJ40? Ang engot ng tanong ko, noh. Hindi ko kasi talaga alam, eh.

Basta bakal ang bubong at may pinto na pwedeng i-lock.

Don't forget the aircon and power steering! :mrgreen:

Aircon? Power Steer? ....... Gen I Paje SWB! J-Top sana kaso ayaw mo IFS eh :D

pajerokid,

Okey din sana SWB Pajero kaso mas endless ang possibilities kung LC or Hi-lux, eh. Nobody even makes front locking differentials and regeared ring and pinions for Pajeros.
