Outer Limits 4x4 Board

you sit pretty much the same height.

These are the seats, I think they are heaps better than the commodore seats. they are out of a BA XR6 turbo / XR8 and have adjustable lumbar support on the driver and passenger seats, they cost me $300 for the pair. http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee192/turbotdcoupe/Patrol/th_07062010142.jpg You ...

I put ba xr6turbo / xr8 seats in my ute,

3 of the 4 bolt holes lined up.
Just need to extend one of the back holes with some plate about 50 mm and shorten the little knob you use to tilt the seats
there sweet seats.

I can get some pix if you like.

Mines doing the same thing (gq ute) a loudish clunk from what sounds like the drivers side, happens intermittently, only seems to happen when i get in the soft sand. it kind of feels like it is unlocking a hub then locking back in again if that makes sense, i have replaced my locking hubs with no ...

Northside Transmissions in Sandagte

Hey Guys, I have a set of tough dog shocks and one of the back adjusting knobs has broken off, i took the knob off and its all rusty under there. The "valve" underneath the adjusting knob was stuck, i have pushed it in the whole way(after a rp7 bath) but i will not come back out. Any ideas on where ...

so whats the difference between slotted and solid bushes
i am assuming that the slotted ones will flex better, is this right?
if so what are the cons of them.

Thanks

troy

my bad
it was a RD135 just checked the box then.
for a 1996 gq patrol with coils and disk brakes

i would check with arb
i brought a rear air locker about one month ago for the rear or my coil rear disk break 1996 gq and i was preety sure it was a rd136
i will check when i get home as i have the box still


troy

the rear for a gq coil is a rd136
the ratio doesn't matter
the best thing to do would be to call ARB they will know for sure

hahah sorry its already sold to a mate

ARB quoted me 3700 ish to install front and rear air lockers
so its better than arb's price

i have a lock rite auto locker in the front of my GQ patrol and it works very well.
but i am still buying a air locker as i like the ability to turn it off when you want to.

troy

Thanks for the reply's guys,

Thanks

troy

i have been using good quality lsd oil for over a year with no dramas

troy

the more the shocks are inverted the less effective they work

so in short yes

or just buy some adjustable shocks, so you can set them up how u like

troy
