Outer Limits 4x4 Board

The diesels are great, V8's are cheaper to work on..... Check this one out, 1996 everything updated from the 94 and 110Km for a V8 is nothing.... http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/land-rover/discovery/auction-383811863.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Where abouts in NZ are ...

Do you mind adding a little more info regarding the sus lift, I am loving the flex Would be real keen to know more

Can you let us know where you get one from and the price Thinking I like the idea for the Disco

HA HA, I went out and got a Land Rover Discovery V8 as our new family offroad vehicle. Kids are now old enough to come with us, so thought it about time to get into the scene again

Tell ya what though, miss the Paj that's for sure

Lookin bloody MINT Glen Welldone.....

Should of just bought a Land Rover though, you have put in all that effort that I have out of the box

MINT Looking "O" for awesome Glenn.

Awesome Pics Glen, glad it is still going and doing what is was built for How does it go with the 3.5? Needed a bigger mill than the 3litre to turn the 35"s Mudzilla's anyway. Ben (my brother) had issues with it being slighty underpowerd.

Next mission was getting it to stay 'up' while still looking tidy - I have suceeded with the 'up' part and I guess it is tidy enough. Does look tidy and good idea to boot. All I can say is MAGNETS!!! Will hold that puppy up no worries and if you recess them, well that will almost look "posh" :D

Nice action shots Where in Welly are you playing?

Seems to feel nice through the wheel on my test try but yet to test it properly.

Have you given it its proper test yet? Apart from it looking nice does it do the trick Its something I might look into if its worth it.

Buy some soundproofing and some glue and a knife....... :roll: It'll be a pretty big job to do it properly, mainly pulling all the dash out. What about good old underfelt Underfelt is good, but it is bulky to get quailty soundproofing. My brother (ricer boy) loves his car stereos and loud sound ...

Mine also has a vacuum pipe that goes into the firewall (someone has put it in aftermarket) for a vacuum guage. It is T'd off about an inch and a half from where your missing pipe is to be attached. It must do something then

Hey NJ, on the other side of the block .(almost opposite in area), there looks like a vacuum diaphragm thingy, goes there! Heres a pic, the top ones in the photo are the heater pipes



Hope this helps

Knew you'd be along soon :P PM me ya address and I'll send 8 up. There is a shop in Gore that sells everything hardware. Absoutly everything. Period! They are an allen key type...... With having your springs fall out and extending the top mount - effectively you have less travel now?? Not than ...

You will find a bit more body roll, especially being a LWB, but if your shocks are in good nik you'll be ok You just have to be more aware of your driving style on-road.

Yip I've got the whole system from In-cab to shocks. Went for the RS99115 in the rear, and had the bottom mount changed from L1 to LS82 before they were shipped. I installed a set of raised Dobinsons coils (linear rate, 50mm lift) but the ranchos were so long on extended stroke that the coils fell ...

We run Maxxis Mudzillas on our NJ without breakages, just depends on how you drive. Simex's or any aggresive tyre will damage drivelines if you get airbourne and stay on the gas.

I just want to know if it is possible (of course its possible) but how much work would it be?

Check out this build-up:

Damn that looks nice. I wish I could have done something as neat as that. What did all the materials set you back? Cheers, 25mmx25mm 2mm tubing was about $200, carpet was about $150, timber, I used MDF (because its light, gave it a treatment of aqua-sheild) 16mm $100, locks and levers about $70 ...

Almost finished ours, so heres how its looking at the moment. No back seats though. http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff207/Overkill33/CIMG1143.jpg http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff207/Overkill33/CIMG1148.jpg http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff207/Overkill33/CIMG1142.jpg http://i238 ...

You can test in this area:

Have a good look at the Goodyear Wrangler MTR's, I have a few mates with them and they are an all round quality tyre with excellent wear, at a pretty affordable price.

And don'f forget the HANDBRAKE!

Auto or Manual? If manual, what happens at 70k when you put the clutch in and let it coast?

Have you had all your wheels balanced?

The callipers do foul up on the JTops with 15" rims, they come out with 18's by memory and larger callipers. You can get 15's to fit, just need to be a little happy with the grinder

Do it to the LWB, shorten the chassis and make a tray back. Save and buy a cheap body off TMe. Could be an awesome project, again I'm damn JEALOUS!

OH BOY, Now I'm really jealous
