Outer Limits 4x4 Board

another vote for probag, mine rocks
one tip get the biggest tank you can fit, or a couple of tanks I'm only running a 9L tank and she runs out too quick, even still the boss impressor is still faster than any other compressor out there at the moment I think

heres a little thought.. I might be way off here but my girlfriends old man had a TD42 and he complained that it sounded like it ran on for a split second after he turned the key off. So i talked to a few older mechanics that had been buggering around with diesels for many years. They suggested adv...

Stu, I would look at rebuilding it to factory spec and then getting a trick fuel pump and a BB turbo and good intercooling. i think the hp gain you would get from this would make you happy. Mine has this done and is pumping 160rwkw and still has heaps more room for tunning. It is using around 16/17...

One day down the track I'll be lookingg to rebuild and turbo my td42, can anyone tell me is it possible to do things like bore and stroke a diesel engine in the quest for more power/torque?

G'day guys
Anyone got any tips when I fit my adjustable panhards?
My plan is to use a ratchet tie down strap to get everything nice and central then throw her on, This sound good?
Will I need to adjust my steering arm and RTC dampener?
cheers

Yeah I figure I can get a front and rear lokka along with 3 staun internal bead locks for the price of an air locker so a bit of a no brainer really

Cheers guys
I think I'll just have to wait till I can sneak it past the missus and go the pro locker, cause there's no way I could justify to her the extra $1000 on top of the 4wd systems lokka

thanks for the help fellas

G'day I'm after some suspension help for a mates 60 series He's looking to fit 37"tyres, or 35's if these can't be done The car will be an off road toy, the only onroad she'll be doing will be driving to off road play areas. What suspension can you reccomend, he want's to keep costs down as muc...

G'day I'm after a locker for the front of my mav, ultimately I'd love a TJM/ARB but there is no way the minister for war and finance will let my budget stretch that far. Has anyone come across the Aussie Locker? If so where do you get them from? I've read reviews on Piratw 4x4 and checked out their ...

you need to spend a heap on the TD to get it too move where the TB stock with a snorkel and a flowed exhaust still turn 35" enuf to drive it. My naturally aspirated TD turned 35's well enough, definately no speeed demon though, much nicer once the diff gears were done moves just as well as she...

Does anyone else run a 5" lift on a shorty? That could give me some dimensions of centre to centres of the trailing arms. I want to fine tune it before I go down the path of double cardin joints... When I bought my lower arms from cheesy he told me that for lifts of 4" plus he sells them ...

Mate you need a double cardin tail shaft as well as lengthening your trailing arms.
I get tailshaft vibration when I back off the juice witha 3" lift nothing that effects driving though

Check this site out, some good bargins come up in there classified section

I say: "On your bike" if you can't understand. I hope I am not communicating with nuffies[/u] Geeeez dude.. speaking of nuffies!!!! Firstly bang your leagal temrs up your .... You're missing the point here bud.... The point is that regardless of the outcome you posted a thread on here war...

Gotta disagree on the tough dogs, I've got the big ass adjustables and I love em

cheap and easy rear double cardan rear shaft for a shorty buy a second hand front tail shaft from a long wheel base and shorten it to fit the rear works well did mine cos it was raise to inches and the transfer was moved backwards 4 inches so i fit a 3.8 v6 and auto runs a treat Pretty sure only th...

Sounds strange but hollow bar is actually stronger than solid

Got mine from cheezy(im in WA postage was pretty reasonable) and I love em, they can't be killed

After no luck wit a search or the bible I thought I'd just ask I'm going to chuck a kit through my swivel hubs, replace the bearings and CV's etc does anyone have any tips/instructions on how to go about this, I've got a workshop manual but she's not the greatest, plus you can't beat good old experi...

Another idea might be to just get third party(just in case you hit a rolls) and put the difference into a bank account you can't touch so it's there if you need to fix your own truck. I know of a fella thet runs his own trucking company and doesn't pay a cent in insurance, what the thieves would cha...

G'day guys
I'm going to be replacing my CV's and putting a swivel hub kit through my beast soon and was wondering if anyone had any tip's for the job. I'll be following a workshop manual but you can't beat a bit of experience
Cheers

Thanks for the info guys, it all helps to decide where to spend my dollars

Sweet thanks for the info guys, looks like turbo is the way to go

I'm looking at upgrading my rear control arms and fitting adjustable panhard rods. I'm tossing up between items from eithe 3rds or Superior engineering. Has anyone had any experience with these andreccommend either. The £rds control arms look a bit beefier but the ends seem to be machined right dow...

G'day I'm after a bit of advice on what to do with my 88 Mav. She's running a TD42 with 270,000km on the clock. I'm looking at either fitting a Switzer turbo kit, water to air intercooler and getting the fuel pump tricked up - all through the boys at Opposie Lock in Balcatta over here in WA or throw...
