Outer Limits 4x4 Board

the ones at my old work were driven by driveshafts.

id say the lt would be stronger, and were can you get a d300 over here for same price as a lt230? gonads ran one in his single seater behind a 5l and had a few dramas afaik

Haha! The fabbin' will begin soon enough!! I just don't want the rear steer that a patrol gets. My god it's disgusting!

Does anyone know what the roll axis is for a big lift patrol? Just to give some comparison?


if the links are parallel the roll axis angle is the exact same angle of the links ...

There's no reason it can't be stable with air shocks at all corners.

Get all the weight low and centred, get the anti-squat nice and low in the rear so it's not lifting under torque and seeing as you won't be going fast build the roll axis reasonably high at both ends.

Also get the oil level up ...

ive had 4 cars with hilux diffs/brakes with sierra booster and master cylinder
and neva had a spongey pedal

my car atm has hilux disks all round with stock sierra master and booster and i have no dramas at all

stock brakes are fine

My old Sierra needed 10" of slip and I didnt want to risk the long slip from Locktup thats why I went with the box section.



.
I have only always used standard hilux slip joints on all my comp trucks... my lux ran 18" race runners front and rear and never once dropped a shaft out even on full ...

cant pull the plugs to see if all the pistons go up and down when you turn the crank over by hand? what motor is it?

pictures

bolt the fawking thing together and wheel it dont need to rebuilds and manualised

what patrol diffs?

i think u will have less AS then 86% as i find it hard to belive your COG is only 34" from the ground on 44" tires
id build it with the roll center as high as i could get it (helps body roll, and and the diff swings to the side that is compressing helping keep the tire out of the tubework/body)
and ...

sounds like he has a centered rear diff so flex isnt going to do much, and generally if your flexing your car your not going at 100km/h your goin under 5km/h so as long as they are not goin past there limits you will be fine

of course if they bind they are goin to wear/break

i ran a centered rear ...

Certainly not ideal & personally I would be correcting as soon as finances would allow as it will reduce it's life regardless.
What 80 Delerious said is spot on but I would not have it as a permanent set-up



brooksy


how does it reduce its life any more then a regular drive shaft (angles being ...

u will have no dramas as long as they are the same angle and are within there working angle

As a previous competitor and potential future competitor i'm of mixed feelings about the suits.

On the one hand i think they're a good idea particularly for a petrol vehicle that is doing a speed that could rupture a fuel tank in a crash. Last year i was looking at getting embroidered uniforms ...

let me know when they are forsale marcus

You got to decide, Comp car or Rego car. Completely different spec. Alot of comps in NSW don`t need rego anymore.
Build one to do both means wasting alot of coin with stupid engineers and rules that wont make a very good Comp rig.
A good start:
Comp rig needs, v6 , auto, dual hilux-cases, 60 series ...

you cant just measure?

they dont have to be the same from front to back

been done a fair bit there is a couple of build threads on pirate
i think this vid is when he had a gsxr750

I build horse floats and trailers for a living and the best advice I can give you is to ring Marshall Engineering and speak to them. They sell everything you will need cheaper then anyone else in Australia and will happily give you all the advice you need including the correct offsets and speed ...

why would you want dual calipers? singles pull up every car i have built fine

seems like all you would be doin is making yourself use a bigger master cylinder to pump more fluid

Could set one up as a park brake or as cut brakes. You could set them up using fluid instead of a cable with a second ...
