Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi,
I have an 80 series with a 4.5 petrol and needing someone with a manual to find out what the opening temp of the thermostat is. Think mine is faulty and want to test it out on the stove before replacing it,just so i can eliminate that from the problem solving of an over heating issue.

Thank you.

Who repairs PTO driven hydraulic winches around Melbourne, pref mornington pen. Mine is playing up and wont pull under full load. Thinking gears for engaging the free spool but rather get a shop in the know to take a look first. First time i have had one.

Great.Thank you guys for that.il do some ringing around.

Dirty, who did you get your longs from? roughly how much are they.

Thanks guys. Think i may go similar route as you cranky.Sounds just the next level up from stock for me without going over the top. Cheers for all your feedback. Much appreciated.

Ps just to be lazy in chasing around, anyone recently brought the 10mm rear stds upgrade and who from? Vic pref if available.

Ok guys cheers. i will source some rear wheel studs then and seems likey to leave stock gearing in it. How strong are the front cvs and axels?

Hi. Just wanting to get peoples veiws or experiences with what camshaft spec to use in a ls1 that will be used for 4wd purposes.To get the torque and power lower in the rev range to the current spec it is. Has any one used a 218/222 @50 and has 585 lift and 114 lc camshaft. It seems a likey one so ...

Any results yet?

Was that breatho in sale. I went through there no probs. had 37s on and mud flaps thou. Go to bunnings and grab some 3mm rubber bits and bolt them on. Cheaper than a fine and RWC.

Mate i got some from a truck supplies place in Mornington. Any length you want. No bolts supplied,just use self tapping screws.

Would the flexy coils be ok if you mainly used your 4wd for 4wding but occasionally esp in summer months tow a boat, roughly 1300kg on tandem trailer?

Thnks mate.Thats the one im after but in 75mm preff. And need at least 6mts for all 4 guards of a gq. Where did you buy it from?

Hi any one know a new link that works from old posts RE: to buy side mounted rubber flares that screw into side of wheel arches instead of under lip. There was a place on ebay over bayswater in Vic that sold them.

Any help be appreciated.

Cheers

Thanks mate will give them a call and i have a few others to enquire about as well. Thank you to all who pm me with info. Very helpfull.

Cheers.

Hi all.
Thinking of chopping the GQ wagon.In sth east melb (mornington Peninsula) area and wondering who has had this done, who did you get to do the job and what it cost roughly. Looking at an extra cab chop with tube tray.

Any help from those who have had it done be appreciated.

Cheers.

Hi guys,
