Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Shorty Forty, I did the exact same as you. Enzed tapped out a fitting for me and I used that. Yes you do lose a bit of probe length, but mine seems to be working fine.

Also interested in a hi and low beam kit for a '99 GU Patrol. How much?

I just recently had my Patrol dyno tuned by Denco in Wagga. I found that it was hitting 550 to often for my liking and I was continually backing off the throttle to lower the temps. Towing is much worse and because we are towing a loaded trailer for a Postie Bike Challenge through the Flinders ...

thats the main reason im doin it, little bit more clearance for 35s, only running a 2in spring lift at the moment.
36 Swampers with sagged 3inch.. 35's should be easy without body lift.

Here is some video footage of the first day that a mate has uploaded to youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKN2ftlvU0M

I seen an old Yamaha IT465 in the back of a Hyandai Excel hatchback. Couldn't close the hatch though, so that was held down with occy straps.

I had a non turbo 93 model 75 series ute for 9 years. Although I loved that truck (and they are a truck) they won't go as well as a 2.8 turbo Rodeo.

My house mate had a Rodeo while I had the Cruiser and I gotta admit hers was a fair bit faster than mine.

I had a great run out of the girl though ...

That is what I made my sliders out of and I reckon they will take a fair knocking. I say go for it.

hi there go the 4.5 petrol ,extractors ,2.5 straight through exhaust,snorkel and you will leave those deisels behind you daz

One of my mates has the 4.5 running 35's with diff gears, but it has an auto, we have swapped vehicles and I'll admit mine was running 33's but with standard gearing though ...

Get a set of extended swaybar disconnects to fix the swaybar problem. As for the rubber melting you may have to move the exhaust and while your at it put in a 3" system.

Oh yeah big difference...... The 3.0litres have more power than the 2.8 but they also blow up a bloody lot more!!

Shouldn't need to do anything to get it cracking...... The pistons will probably crack themselves before too long

On a trip to QLD loaded up including roof rack and 4 days on Fraser Island I averaged 14.3/100. Best I got was 12.8 sitting on 105kph on highway and worst I got was 17 while on Fraser Island driving in dry sand. But I have only got half the power Joel has

The towbar is an easy place to put it, but just be careful because as said it will tip to the side very easy and unless it is in 4wd it will also roll forwards.

Events like that are a good learning experience. I bet nearly everyone on here has been in a similar situation when they were starting out. I know I have

Not many km's for the year model. I'm starting to see the price of these vehicles has come down slightly. My guess is the cost of diesel. I think a lot of people are leaning the way of duel fuel. You didn't say if it has any accessories on it? Because of the low km's I'm guessing between $33-36k.

With all the threads you have just bought back to life Bogged, I'm guessing your pretty keen to buy a welder.

I have a Uni-Mig 172 running gas. Over the last couple of days I have been making a set of sliders for my Patrol. The mig is great to do most of the welding on the tube because it is only 3 ...

Don't know his name, but if you were after the Holden 5.0lt conversion, including engine mounts, adaptor plate and wiring loom it is gone. One of my mates from Albury bought it.

Under the drivers seat and run the wires under the console to the head unit.

That's what I did on my GU.

At around 100-110kph my boost is about 8 pound. The EGT is sitting around 320-370C.

I actually backed the fuel screw off on mine the other day, because the EGT's would jump up quickly when I got to a hill and I would continually have to back off the accelerator or change it down a cog. Just 1/8 of ...

Just got a price for some 315/75/16 here in Albury. $378. I think he wondered why I nearly fell over. I was thinking maybe $350 at the most.

Bogged, try some gun shops. They sell them up here. Same globe for spotlights as driving lights.

My vote would be for the full kit, just bolt up and have it tuned.

Why not make a poll out of it?

Actually now that you mention it, I'm pretty sure it was wheel bearing grease that I used.
Looks like lithium based grease is the go then

I have heard from another forum, that wheel bearing grease is no good. I did the same with mine, packing it with wheel bearing grease about 12 months ago and ...

I'm pissed off about that decision. We look forward to going every year. Did they say why it has been cancelled?

A little bit. Really only when pulling up to a complete stop like at traffic lights. It's just a feeling of the chunky tread pattern through the steering wheel.

I have had 3 sets of BFG Muds. When they are new they are nice and quite, but the more they wear down the noisier they get. I still think they are a good all round tyre though, because they handle well on the road and provide pretty good traction in the bush, while wearing well. Definately not as ...
