Outer Limits 4x4 Board

So there is a lot of talk on a number of FB pages about trimming 5mm off the spline end of both front and rear axles to prevent rear dowels and studs shearing and front locking hubs exploding...... can anyone elaborate on this and explain how this works?

cheers,
MUSS

CHEERS MATE

just trying to find out weather a diff centre from a HJ47 will fit into a BJ73 not sure about the core of fine splines or the ratios..... any help is appreciated fellas

ALL4X4PARTS ask for Fester

Thanks fellas, thats the kind of info im after. Is the transfer-gearbox leak a common problem? Im guessing its just the lip seal between the t-case and gearbox that goes? Yeh Muss i'll be going right over it, in the price range im looking at spending nearly all of them have high kms. yeah mate ...

300+ hmmmm id e going over it with a fine tooth comb. check for rust in the windscreen and pillars squeeky throw out bearing when you usethe clutch, check for blow by in the air filter and crank case breather, front axle seals etc there isa big list for something with that many kms on it mate good ...

I want water to air because it won't do any high way work and it'll be all slow driving and a lot of mud driving. (more then you guys would get) and I don't want the intercooler getting full of mud. If I get front mount air to air it'll have to be in front of the rad so it'll get blocked causing ...

If you're referring to the climate up north i think your theory is misguided.

i think dumbdunce will disagree...........

Hey muss what is the rest of your setup? How much boost/fuel are you running and what are EGTs like? its a PWR kit.... running about 10 - 11 psi and fuel matched to suit... nothing insane. something I will note the bonnet scoop adds a major denifite to the temperature of the barrel before i fitted ...

take note there is far less room under the bonnet due to the 3b motor being a square motor un like the 1hz

Woudlnt be to much of a problem. Post up a pic of the engine bay and I can determine which sized core would be suitable and give you a rough quote. this is what i currently have on the slug http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=128364&hilit=3b+water+to+air+intercooler+muss" onclick ...

gday all.... Im looking at buying a 4x2 hilux ute and am wondering what some or all of the pros and cons are? DIESEL & PETROL

yeah same they are using my bros original shaft and extending it

nice work fellas cheers for all the info

Take a measurement from the transfer case flange to the rear diff flange and allow about 30mm for opening for your slip joint, being a rear there is no requirement for a long slip joint because the diff moves forward when it drops. Use your rear shaft , give the measurements between the flanges to ...

Measure the length compressed and drooped? :roll: HA HA HA HA this place hasnt changed..... gotta love the sarcasm from the newbies :finger: CHEERS I was serious? How can someone give you an exact measurement when there are so many variables involved? What length rear springs? Is the diff moved ...

He has a 2.8 Hilux LN106 with 3inch lift and running superior drop shackles on the rear leaves. I need to know how long the slip joint needs to be and ...

-greasable shackles -remove a leaf or 2 -remove a few leaves and add air suspension -can go an 'add-a-coil' kit -go a custom 5 link (uses 80 series trailing arms etc) -increase tyre size BUT the best thing I can advise you to do is lower your tyre pressure when you go off road. I drop mine down to ...

go up a size in tyre if they will fit, 1 inch diameter will reduce your revs by about 750 rpm. so going from your 31's to 33's would reduce it by 1500 down to 2350 . diff gears arent too cheap which is another option. can a gearbox gear be swapped out? either way a set of tyres would probably be ...
