With your permission, I will post here what we are doing with the patrol, what improvements, photos and comments


Patrol on 40" wheels, 6" lift

 

[A4B]

37s and and 4 inch lift is big in AU, personally i love what you have done, it actually looks kinda in good proportion, im guessing you need reduction gears of some sort ?

And please post up heaps of videos of this thing in action

Installing the M57 BMW engine on patrol, manual transmission

 

[Nikolay]

the car is prepared for a trip to the Arctic, now it is going under its own power to Krasnoyarsk, and then to the Arctic zone.
An additional tank of 200 liters, fuel heating is installed in the trunk.

I got a little distracted from the patrol and restored a cargo motorcycle)) the motorcycle is called Ural MG-350 Hercules, I restored it and redid a lot))
I bought this one

I used to have a Ural 650, drum brakes, when you wanted to stop, you applied them about a week before. They were not very effective. The main bearings were white metal, after seizing it I replaced them with phosphour bronze. Much better.

 

[Nikolay]

I changed everything)

 

[Nikolay]

to improve cooling, we put another pump and make the pulley smaller, the pump performance grows by about 25 percent, then we put either a viscous coupling with a fan or electric fans at the request of the customer

 

[Nikolay]

These are adapter plates for installing the M57 BMW diesel engine, you can install both automatic transmission and manual transmission.
This diesel engine can be raised up to 250 hp without damage to the resource.

We made a stand for checking motors, you can check the compression and even start, it remains to install a radiator

 

[Nikolay]

And this is an installed engine from Toyota, 1HD-FTE, 4.2 liters, the engine is good, but very large, the patrol has very little space under the hood, so it is difficult to repair and maintain

 

[Nikolay]

So we turn off the EGR, cut off this flange, scald it and screw it back

we cut off this aluminum pipe so that only the flange remains, cut out the gasket from thin aluminum and press it with this flange

As you know, my DI is different to the CRD, I removed the feed pipe from the Ex manifold and bolted on a flange to block and also installed an EMP connection for when I test. I plated the In manifold where you did but don't cut the dropper off. Over here in Oz it is illegal to block/remove such gear, that is why ex heat shield usually goes back on quickly as if someone gets pulled over for some reason and checked, it is too apparent that it is deleted, my EGR valve is still in place basically for that reason.

 

[Nikolay]

Thanks for the correction, I forgot that you have strict rules and you need to save external attributes

What is the fuel heating for? If you use JetA1 it doesn't freeze until about -70'C

 

[Nikolay]

we have a saying, I haven’t seen fried ones, but I’ve seen a lot of frozen ones)
the car will go through sparsely populated areas and no one knows what kind of fuel it is, it’s better to play it safe

Ok, so it's not that remote that you have to take all your fuel.

[Nikolay]

not all, the car will be refueled in the villages, there is 4000 km to go, so heating and an additional tank are needed

JP-8 is actually what you should be looking for. AFAIK it’s designed as a replacement for both JET-A1 and Diesel. When I was working in the military vehicle industry, we had to ensure the vehicles can run on JP-8.

 

[Nikolay]

Friends, you misunderstood me a little, we just prepared this patrol, and other people will go on it to the Arctic.
We call the fuel arctic and it is there in the villages, but anything can happen and it is necessary to make sure, both with spare fuel and with fuel heating.
I’ll give you just one example, in that zone the cars don’t turn off at all in winter, if you drive quickly after parking, the wheel simply breaks in half, you need to start moving slowly so that the rubber heats up, you can’t stand loaded for a long time, the wheels break from frost
