Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I'm moving over the border (by 1km) to NSW. Can anyone give me a brief overview of what mods are allowed in NSW as against QLD. Are they more leniant on suspension, body lifts etc?
Any info would be appreciated.
Cheers Ian

One and the same.

EFS at Wacol do custom, parabolics etc...got them on the 75 and no problems

This public statement requires clarification as it is a good example of how so many unfounded rumours come about: Mark Mitchell and other competitors raised concerns with TTC management in regards to the legal aspects of "registered only" vehicles allowed to compete in the event. Mark's owns ...

Great idea guys....
Shouldn't this have been organised prior?

You can use 80 ser springs but you will find that your Bundy doesn't have enough weight to compress etc...I tried and changed to custom King springs and EFS shocks and she moves real well now

Agreed with both Stampy and Gut. Look at the name of the event....
"PRODUCTION"

F%$#@ ME!! Obviously by the past few post's of sarcasm and bullshit style of questions, none of you want anyone to have, or try to set up a cheaper PRODUCTION style of competition. Remember that SAFETY has to come first so the roll cages and full harness HAS TO BE THERE. Have a good lie down and a ...

Pinion splines all still there and seem to be ok, same on yoke. New control arms are hardened...so I hope it doesn't happen again. I have a feeling that the nut was not on anyway and therefore the tailshaft was spat out before it's done any damage. I hope so...
Let u know.

Have 92 GQ. Broke lower control arm and replaced. On driving off heard large noise under the body. The rear yoke, still attached to the driveshaft had pulled off the diff splines. On inspection I have found a nut inside the yoke which I believe holds the yoke into the diff splines. Am I correct? I ...

Two other things have happened to me. Check your engine mounts if they're stuffed they'll move selector when chassis moves. Other one is that stick hits the top of the cab floor and can move it enough to push out of gear.

Just a reminder for all that the Grilla is on again! More tracks, more fun and come light. Bookings are essential as we limit the numbers. Ring and spot your place now.

Anyone know if any of the drive train diffs etc from 45 can be used on old (1988) 75 series?
Any info would be good.
Thanks

I believe that you're going the wrong way about it. Do a Business plan and get a good idea of what your cost base will be. This will determine your prices and whether it is viable at all. If it comes out positive then go to Council and check out suitability of property and terrain for 4x4 usage ...

Last call for the roast....bookings shut Friday lunchtime.
Thanks Ian

If u want something like Cruiser or Rover then here's some thoughts for you.....Public Liability is the big one. Budget as a minimum $10,000 per annum.
$10 ?? I don't think so

Don't forget that if you want the roast on Sat night then you need to pre book so we have an idea on numbers...give us a ring on 4685 2558 or pm me here!

Go for Broke!

Ian

Hi Giys,
Seeing Tough Tracks club today and all will be finalised re spectators etc.... Will post up here and on our website tomorrow.
Ian

Ok thanks for the feedback
1 Gonna to drop the tank and check filters etc...
2 Change all fuel pipe to the lift pump
Then pray ....
Let u know how I go
Thanks to all

OK, So forget the pump! What's the best (easiest for non mechanic!) to check hoses for leakage? Compressed air down the hose and visually have a look? One other question the one place I haven't done yet is the tank itself. Is there a filter in there? Should I drop it to look before the above? Thanks ...

The poor old girl stops in embarrassing places ie on hills. Checked for blockages...changed lift pump and filter, will work fine if I put the tank under pressure but as soon as this is released then she stops. Any ideas?

Anyone fitted one to a diesel engine? Any tips on fitting. Also do you need to still go through original mechanical pump or can I bypass it? Worried if the original pump has no diesel to it then it'll sh*t itself. Any feed back would be great.
Thanks Guys Ian

Hi guys, Have a 3B diesel and it's starting to play up. Engine is starved of fuel. Runs for a minute if I hand pump it then dies. Have changed fuel filter and lift pump as i had them to hand. No joy. Pressurised the fuel tank and she ran great for ten minutes. Immediately I went off the flat she ...

Just another reminder that if you want dinner on Sat evening get your bookings in now. Not long to go now!!!

Rear Diff roooooted!
Thanks for your help guys

Driving home in 2wd, large bang from under the car and transfer pops out of 2wd to neutral and no drive to rear wheels. Locked in hubs and H4wd and drove home with front drive only. Assuming possible transfer problem or rear diff. Any ideas on how to chase this down to the problem area? Any help ...

Latest should be Thursday before the comp. Other food available all weekend, brekky, burgers, sizzle etc... but the roast you'll need to book.
Thanks
Ian
