Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I reversed my old LWB Jack onto ramps to do the shocks, they are a piece of piss

to do coils I jacked up the whole lot and lowered the body on to jack stands letting the diff drop...I reckon I had to undo shocks and sway bar

as above

apparently this issue was fixed from "05, and apparently Holden do have a kit to retro fit into the older models to overcome this problem

Come over to these forums as plenty of help there on the Jacks

check service history

unfortunately these motors were ahead of their time with the caterpiller injection system and use of incorrect weight oil kills them eventually

wouldn't it be under the steering wheel, some sort of spring loaded mechanism?

never pulled the wheel off my old rodeo but i would suggest looking there first

could have been fuel pump fuse?

not sure but from memory you can use the Jackaroo front set up
Thanks for the reply. The Jac disk rotors are, acording to the workshop manual, the same size as the standard rodeo, so no advantage.

damn thought they were 280mm, all Jacks are 257mm then?

I don't really know, I ...

2.5"

Cheers. Are you running extractors?
not yet, I actually have a 3.2L "97 but the mods on exhaust are pretty much the same...haven't done mine yet

if I were serious about my exhaust I would be chasing a Vortex muffler off ebay before they sell out...i am waiting for the spare cash to do so

2.5"

so, fix it?

the old man has a 92? 2.6 efi and it was running fine then died.....it has been sitting around for 9 months so i was thinking that the fuel filter is clogged up from the old fuel. Does anyone have any ideas at all????
I am guessing here of course, but my old 92 Rodeo with the 4ZE1 2.6 was fine ...

Can you list what you have tried, a pain I know...

Anything like O2 sensor, Throttle position switch, Idle Air Control?

hope you find some info then because that would be a conversion I would be interested in later on

i thought the issue was the size of the box...maybe i am confusing it with the 4L60E

tough call, what would you replace the Jack with?

I would tend to say keep it because at least you have a good idea of service history

Cheers,

MJR currently have a green 1986 petrol

http://mjrautocentre.com.au./?action=ca ... &year_max=

think a petrol auto would probably be a slug with 2.3

that is cool, where do I get me one?

what is the model code of these as I cannot find any...

I am a sparky

Can you tell me the issue of them looking different? Could just be the newer one is smaller.

They should both have, hopefully, a label on them that outline current rating of the contact sets so the new one should match the rating or better and have 3 normally open contact sets.

If ...

cheers for that

only heard the 2.8 hilux as a slug

Can anyone tell me how good or bad these are?

Getting to the point of wanting a ute again, dual cab, and the straight diesel nav's are in my price range.

Are they just completely sucky?

Want something half decent though most offroading will be beach for fishing

can we see pics of this beast?

thanks guys, all good advice

tyres are Cooper ATR

what is a bull bag? same as exhaust jack?

mate had one but it had low k's (i mean 43k when he got it)and it was an awesome truck

problem with them is alot of the engine runs off oil pressure and they NEED good oil up to them constantly otherwise it is the begining of the end

as with above comment, I knew they had injector seal problems ...

All good tips, cheers

I understand a snatch strap is only good with another vehicle around ;)

Forgot about tyre pressures. So a good air-compressor would have priority over an exhaust jack?

I have a reasonable air comp here, but prob more suited to car tyres; is there a good brand of air comp ...

Am slowly getting gear together for camping/beach fishing...

I would mainly be single vehicle, though mostly using popular areas; murray mouth etc

I was wondering what would be peoples top picks for sand/beach recovery equipment?

I am thinking of getting a snatch strap kit together (snatch strap ...

cheers

didn't buy the vehicle in the end

Anyone got experience or know the faults of the 3.0tdi in the last of the older shape Rodeos?

Am considering one but unsure if I am asking for trouble.

Vehicle in question has around 244k on clock.

Cheers

Found a couple of Pajero's with plain diesel engines (2.8).

Anyone had any experience or dealings with these?

I figure a snail will outrun them but for beach driving etc will they be ok once you find the sweet spot of torque delivery?

Could always get aftermarket turbo later on?
