Outer Limits 4x4 Board

previous to this i did try extending the pin on the slave cylinder but dont you think this wouldnt make much difference (if any) as its the master cylinder that determines how far the slave moves the pin

ok so here are the answers. sorry for the delay. iworked friday whilst making phone calls to get some answers. somebody told me to try a 5mm spacer in the slave behind the push rod. -no good there is no inspection place on the ln106 gear box yes i did put the clutch in correctly (right way around) t...

im thinking about this myself mental1
whats the auto like for down hills where i would be used to using low first with no brakes

nope theres no air in it, already done that.
is it possible the clutch will take a bit to bed in?

i installed a new clutch on my hilux tonight (91model 3l diesel 5 speed) because the other day it all of a sudden stopped engageing. and when i got the old one out it had one of the springs dislodged and stuck further around. so i replaced clutch, pressure plate, thrust bearing and spigot bearing. p...

i agree that i should never have to double pump, especially when i have two kids in the back quite often.
**update** it doesnt seem to have got worse or better, and i still havent found time to fix it or investigate. could it be a booster problem??

ok guys everytime i drive the lux the brakes are working then barely doing anything, on and off, im not losing any fluid and ive done maybe 10,000k since new pads and discs. no scraping noises when they do work. but i am getting myself used to the fact that i may have to double pump to stop, i find ...

a mate from work has offered me some rims off his pajero that are off a 88 model paj.
will they fit my 91 lux??

as above guys i ripped a hole in the side wall of one of my all terrains today about 30mm down from the tread, and 50mm long.
would a tube do the trick or not?

sounds good mule might go there myself.
whats the address?
and do you mean $55 per wheel?

thanks for the tips mate will do.
gotta sand back the bog first cos it got hit with the grinder a little hard in some spots

hi ive got a ln106 hilux and ive just modifyed my bullbar putting driving lights where the indicators were and im not sure where to replace them. the car already has 2 on each side at the rear, front guard and front corner btw the guard and grill. but if i disconnect the front bumper ones the indica...

turns out that the big end bearing was gone.
thats great when the engine was suposedly a reco and had been tested.
so now its at the wreckers and they are gonna fix it
slimey p#$cks!

we just put a reco 5l diesel in my mates lux last night and its got a knocking noise. packed up cos it was late and while i was at work i realised it could be an airlock in the diesel lines to the injectors. so today we un done one at a time then ran the engine for a bit until diesel came out. but t...

i have had a inspection at vic roads head orifice and they are calling for me to put the std shackles in or get a engineer cert. for them.
does any one know what that would cost?

hi guys i just put new urethane rubbers through the front end of my lux and its got greaseable shackles but not pins when i was looking at the pins i thought it looks like it would be easy as pie to chuck it it the lathe and drill half way down it then tap a thread to screw a grease nipple on it and...

hi ive got solid axle front and rear leafs in my lux and was going to put new bushes all around cos old ones are pretty worn.
should i use poly bushes with grease or just rubber
and if i use poly will it make for a harder ride?

ok we just put a full set of rancho suspension into my mates 99 mod lux.
and the old rear springs are 100mm longer than mine.
does anyone know if i put these in will it give me more lift than my standard springs?

thanks for the tips team its ALLWAYS good to get friendly advice from like minded ppl or ppl that have been down the same road. spoke to one brake shopo on the phone on sat and he said $60+ per side depending on the fitting type plus fixing the solid line. will try abs tomorrow and get it fixed on m...

hey i stretched and split a brake hose on the front of my hilux last night, i figure they werent long enough so ill get 2 new extended ones.
also so i had brakes to get home with i had to crush the solid line from that wheel at the master cylinder so can that be cut and repaired?

just finished putting the pump back on and im pretty happy with it.
not too hard a job really, as with all things it just takes time.
