Outer Limits 4x4 Board

A bit more info would be good.
Wheres the noise coming from?
Is it only at certain speeds or all the time?
Does it do it at any particular time such as turning or it's always there ?
It is full time 4wd or do you have part time kit installed?

Yes, it means it's a 6" wide rim.
80 series came out with 8" wide rims as well. I think the 60 came out wih either a 6" or 7"

I have a warn xd9000 winch that the motor has died on. I first thought it was the solenoids, replaced those, still no luck, had it tested and the motor seems to be gone. So my dillema is the following what do I do to replace the motor. My options are; 1) Replace the motor with an aftermarket no name...

and Tony, I would consider bigger tyres for the lux as you would be in the same class as me.

i just disabled the fuse

Haven't you got an auto locker in the front ???

At this stage there is nothing happening. Won't know anything until Rick sorts pricing out with his current gear cutter, or if he starts the search for a new one.
I have asked Rick to let me know when he has some more info re this.

I'm just about to change my gear box oil and just wanted to see what people use and recommend. This is in a Gu Patrol, petrol, auto.
Cheers.

Yeah I've sent Rick an email and will wait hear back from him.

Thanks for the info Rick. Let's try this stlightly differently then. What price would "I" be able to get if I came in and paid cash for 15 of the units ? I could organise this myself receive payments, go purchase them and then ship them out to people. So what deal would you be able to do f...

Yeah I would say he's at tuff truck.
I sent Rick an email today however I doubt to hear anything prior to Tuesday or Wednesday at the absolute earliest what with all the tuff truck festivities.

thats 12 now Rick... Hint Hint.... Nudge Nudge

Thats 5 already Rick... how about it ???

Rick... dont suppose you want to do another one of these ???

jtop, i've got the 240's on mine. They stick out maybe 1/4" out the front, but a lot less than the winch fairlead.
Mind you it's doesn't stick as far out as the upright parts of the bar.
Does that make sense ?

I guess it depends on where and how you measure them. In the first pic it looks like you are only measuring to the start of the side tread and not the big lug which is in line with the rest of the tread, where as with the simex youve take it from the end of the big lug. As someone said before, you w...

my creepy's measure in at 36.6... close enough for me.

The hammer tone was applied with a paint brush. I'm presuming it's compatible with the primer as they are both the "rustguard" brand.
I left it for about 5 hours before scraping it.

Ok, I've just about finished my new rear bar and it primed ready for painting, my only problem is what paint to use for it. I want it in normal boring black. I've tried 3 different paints and they all scratch off with your fingernail (without a lot of pressure) I've tried hammer tone, cheap enamel r...

cheers... thanks for that.

In all the headunit and amp install manuals i have looked at (i know, who reads those things anyway) it suggests also earthing the amp back to the headunit (doesnt have to be a big wire, similar size to the trigger wire for amp turn on) and is sometimes included in the amp wiring packs i have seen....

Just after a bit of advice. Am just about to order some steel tube to make a rear bar for my patrol. The size I am looking at is a 48mm internal diameter with a 3.2mm wall thickness. Will this be strong enough or is there something else you can suggest. The price I got for the above size is around $...

What would you like to know ?
One of the best built KJ's around. It was pretty much a mall crawler. Didn't see a great deal of dirt.
They did have a few problems with the suspension setup, but I believe this has been ironed out.
For $20k it's a dam good bargain.

hey i was wondering how to connect 2 subs to a single mono amp the subs are 4 ohm and the amps can handle 4 ohms at 300 rms or 2 ohms 600 rms. any help would be great. me217 I'm presuming the amp is 2ohm stable ? There's a big difference between being able to handle 2ohms and 2 ohms stable. Stable ...

Is your front one wired in parallel to the rear ? As in you can't use the front one without the rear one being switched on? If so, do you turn the rear off before the front hence turning both of them off. Just an idea as that's how my last ones were wired up.

Will do... thanks for the help.

Maybe try a hiclone? That might help imbalanced tyres/death wobble about as much. Tell you what, take your steering damper off. THEN get rid of the wobble, then put it back on if you like. Steering dampers don't fix anything, they only make you think it's gone away. Steve. Dude... whats the hiclone...

Castor has been corrected with longer aftermarket arms suited for the 4" lift. It has adjustable panhard with new gen bushes. All the other bushes incl those in the arms are max 7k km's old except for the tie rod ends but they seem fine. The reason I was going for another balance was because it...

so can anyone help with places where to get the wheels balanced around the Hills district / Blacktown / Windsor / Parramatta or anywhere else around the area ?
Thanks again.

swivel hubs all seem fine as well. So... i'm thinking about going down 2 lines... firstly do the ring around for balancing that doesn't require me to take out a second mortgage to pay for them and look at getting a tough dog SV (adjustable) steering dampner to help a bit further. Seems like it would...

Thanks for that... the wheel bearings are fine... I'll jack it up and check the swivel hubs. Thanks for the explanation.
It's been about 7k km's since these were last looked at.

Check your wheel bearings and swivel-hubs before you do anything else. Bigger diameter and heavier tyres (especially muddies) will exaggerate any play you have in your front end. I'll have a look at that... just one question... how do I do it ? Am I checking for play or worn parts... where do I sta...
