Outer Limits 4x4 Board

G'day, there are a few pic's of my rear bar on my lame website,(see link below) I've since added a spare tyre swingaway rack to take the weight
off the rear door.
The rear quarters have been trimmed about 100mm.
Good luck with your rear bar.
Kev.

I went from chassis mounted to sill mounted rockslides on my Pajero and am happy with them so far,
they are made from 65 x 35 x 3mm gal and have copped some good hits and no damage to the sills.

Stinger,
I have purchased all my airbag bits and pieces from
http://myworld.ebay.com.au/airbagfactory&ssPageName=STRK:MEFSX:SELLERID

He happens to be a local shop :)

The only part No. for the switches that I know is what is stamped on them
"3013-4" , they are a black plastic switch from USA with ...

I have replaced the rear coil springs in the Pajero with air bags (triple convoluted ones) and ended up using the pneumatic switches.

One $30 switch does inflation and deflation and has only one air line running to the switch and one to the bag,so two bags two switches,
the air bleeds out the back ...

G'day, I've had a 2.5" exhaust fitted from behind the flexible joint,it's basically straight through with 1 resonator and it made a big diff to the low down response.
It drives better now on 33's than it did before on 31's.The turbo spins up a lot faster than the original exhaust.
You could go 2.5 ...

There are some pics of mine towards the bottom of the gallery page
on my website.(link is in my sig) It's made from heavy wall gal pipe,
75 x 50 gal RHS and 12mm plate .The rear sills have been trimmed
about 100mm.It is heavy,but it's good and solid
Good luck with yours.
Kev.

Wade, I payed $86 a rim for 15" x 8" zero offset.

G'day, there are some pic's of my custom rear bar on my lame website,the
link is below.It is made from heavy wall gal pipe and gal rectangle tube and
is sealed as a air tank. I also trimmed about 4" from the rear quarter panels.
Good luck with yours,
Kev.

G'day Wade,
I picked up my black 15" x 8" Kings (sunnies) from the local Tyrepower
store.I noticed Kings Wheels are addvertising in the last couple of 4x4 Action
mag,they show the ones I got in the add.They have a fine red and white pin
stripe on them.
Good luck,
Kev.

That's a very impressive job you've done

My wife thought it was a respray !!!

What would that cost someone off the street ? roughly ? For a LWB Paj.

You mention about removing it, how is this done without damaging the duco ?

Thanks for sharing this with us

Thanks for all your views,much appreciated.
Kev.

Thanks for the feedback Scott and Eddy.

After getting new tyres & wheels last week,33"x12.5" MTZ's & 15"x8" black
steelies :) Iv'e discovered my rear shocks are both shot and the drivers
side is sitting about 12mm lower because all my tools & recovery gear and
the heavier spare are all on that side.
So Iv'e been looking at shocks & rear ...

That's sad news Frank
I can believe it was a difficult decision to make,
unfortunately you can never get back what you put into
a modified vehicle,someone is going to get a bargain.
Just wish I could afford it
All the best with your future plans,

Kev.

Harvey,
I made the storage area up myself, just bent up the two
panels from 12mm square tube then welded the gal mesh on etc
Remember to weld the mesh to the rear side of the front barrier so
that the load is'nt only taken by the welds.
The rest is made from ply and covered with auto carpet from ...

Harvey, it's a steel bar and it seems to be well made,can't coment
about the ARB one as I've never compared them,the TJM was on
the Paj when I bought it .

Thanks for the tyre info Rob,much appreciated.

Well I've finished my rear bar and rockslides, at last :)

Both bar and slides have air tanks built into them,
hav'nt connected them all together yet,will probably
wait until I get the air con compressor set up.
The rear bar alone holds enough air to take my rear
tyres from 20 psi to 30 psi when ...

Thanks for the info Rob,very interesting,
like you said there's not a real lot of info on the 2.8,
on a side issue, how are you finding the MTR's for wear
and tear ? Was thinking of getting them next.

They work great for heating up pies,I've stacked 6 in ours,
3 layers of 2 with paper towel inbetween each layer :)
Only mistake I made was forgetting to unplug it during
lunch with the acc still on ,jumped in to start it up and one completely
dead battery :oops: So they must draw a fair bit of ...

Glad to hear you are ok Frank,
sad about the Paj,
at least it can be replaced.
All the best with the new build up,
hope everything falls into place.

Hi Gabe,
I removed mine about 18 months ago, hardly noticed any
difference on road, and I like cornering at speed :)
It made a huge improvement off road :lol:
I've removed the front once and it was like a "boat" on road,
but a much more comfortable ride off road,so I'm turning up
a articlulator at ...

Hi Shem,
My 2.8TD gets from" 11 lts / 100 kms to 14 lts / 100 kms"
depending how heavy the right foot is and loaded up I am.
Usually it's about " 12.5 lts ",and my injectors and fuel pump are due
for a service
Hope that helps you,

Kev.

I'm in Kanahooka,just south of Wollongong NSW

Have just repaired my siezed clutch slave cylinder,
stopped at the lights,depressed the clutch and when
I went to go the peddle stayed on the floor :shock:
got underneath with a big screwdriver & hammer and
could'nt budge it :? once I got it towed home and removed
the slave cylinder we found the ...

That's one nice drawer system,
I like the front opening side pods , top idea.

Well done

G'day,here is a link to info on hubs,good luck with it

P.S search is your friend

Replaced my idler arm bushes about 12 months ago with "nolathane"?
bushes (red in colour) for a wheel align,and went for a rego check a week
ago and they are worn already :shock: you can see the slop with the
wheel jacked up and moving it by hand.
The mechanic told me that he has seen this a few ...

G'day Hekta,
I'm in the process (slow) of making up a custom rear bar out of 60mm
OD gal tube,2.5mm wall. I'm going to cut the bottom of the rear quarter
panels off level with the top of the chassis rails (that will get rid of the
damaged bits :) ) then run the tube underneath and right around the ...

I have the Bushranger flexy flares and they fit well,
they have a spring steel wire that you thread through
the outer edge once they are on,which stops the
edge from drooping but is a PITA to thread .
I'm happy with mine so far
