Doesn't anyone on here have a D40 with an Auto trans fitted with a front LOKKA.? _

Another highly recommended option for 2" to 4" lifts is to fit extended ball joints. This is a much cheaper alternative to new upper control arms. They provide an additional 35mm of wheel down travel. They are available from "Performance Suspension" on the gold coast (online shop) and you need...

The procedure for the V6 Nav's is in the owner's manual. You can't adjust the 20,000 km interval as in other model d40's. Have heard that Nissan can reflash the dash so the interval is 10,000 as default. _

I just received some extended ball joints for my 2012 V6, V9X engine STX from performance suspensions. Their web page has 2 different listings for the 550 Nav which is not correct. Basically Thai and Spanish built Nav's have different ball joints with some installing from the top and others...

Mine is a 2012 D40 STX with the V6 V9X diesel engine, but a friend has an auto 2.5. I will probably go for an e-locker from harrop for mine, just for the front. I'd love to know if anyone has a 550 or STX V6 with the e-locker for the front fitted. I think I need part no. A11525 from harrop's...

I'm fairly confident all transfer case actuators on all D40's are the same, so that means the same connector. Don't know who the manufacturer or what the part number's are though. _

$15 dollars in switches and wires and you can fix this behaviour. _

Yep still living the dream in this dust hole ISA. I'm happy to give you a demonstration of how it works one night or weekend. _

It's programmed for a 90 year old grandma to drive in low range and automatically upshifts at 1600 rpm to 2nd gear. It wont downshift to 1st unless the revs are less than 1000 rpm. _

Is anyone going to give this a try.? _

It is a 550 specific problem with the 7 speed auto. In manual mode and 4 low the transmission wont hold first gear. The full thread explains this here. http://www.navara.asia/showthread.php?t=14995 _

Let us all know how it goes after your first few trips. _

Does any one have a front Lokka in a d40 5 speed Automatic. (with the 3.538:1 diff ratio as std). I was under the impression only the 6 speed manuals (with a 3.692:1 diff ratio) had a suitable lokka available.? Thanks _

I have installed my switches and everything works as described earlier. I used the free switch locations near the steering wheel. _

I have my switches now. Just need to wire them in. By adding the 2 switches and wiring them like the previous diagram, low range works as it should. I agree we shouldn't have to do this, and this is a workaround, but trust me it works. Basically you are pressing a switch down for 3 seconds to...

wire it like this and then you use the rotary dial for 4H as per std Nissan use (after you have gone back to 2wd mode and then changed the switch on the left to std position). **EDIT** Switch on left is used to isolate the Transfer control unit ECU. ******** _ -

Tony, Actually the best way is to run 4 wires up along side the handbrake cable. (an orange and grey going up from the TCU computer and an orange and grey going down to the motor) On your switch on the left, if you add another orange and grey wire when the switch is in the down position...

Tony that's a perfect solution. I had thought of going to the wreckers to get a second hand TCU loom with the connector on it, and doing what you say. As long as you only press the switch on the right for 3 seconds everything is perfect. (motor stalls for a short period and draws higher...

If anyone is interested in trying this, I ran the wires up the handbrake boot inside the cabin. _

I'd say four things could happen. A CV could break, or the front diff itself. Generally the CV's and front diff are the weak links.
