Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Yeah mate,

This is what I run in my Disco, absolutely love it, gets me places that patrols and cruisers with suspension work cant follow without winching or lockers.
Great travel and still a good ride on the road.

cheers

I also did it with my arb bar, just made a cradle out of 3mm plate to fit in between the rails of the bullbar.

There was a write up on AULRO, thats what I used, so just have a search on there for bullbar cradle or tjm cradle, as it was a tjm bar he did it for.

cheers

Ok guys this is happening,

For those of you who have asked for stuff check your PM's and get back to me ASAP.

cheers

Darren

Yeah I see you point steve.

Hopefully rovertym have some idea about this.

otherwise even with the 5% and gst it will still be alot cheaper than what it is to buy stuff in smaller quantity's.

what about if rovetyrm can state the products ar eonly worth $900?

Would it be the receipt that customs looks at?

Waiting to hear back from roverym about duty and tax etc.

Any more takers?

The more we get the less postage for all!

PM me for prices etc.

Cheers

Yeah Im not sure about gst and duty etc, I will ask and see if they know anything about it. I can always get them to say it is only worth $100 maybe?

Yeah sweet mick, ill let you know when its happening, just waiting for everyone to let me know what they want and I will be ordering asap.

Cheers

About 1 hour after I wrote the last message, Steve from Rovertym emailed me and said he can get a skid to Melb for $550 US.

The Skid will fit heaps of stuff, So I need to get a proper list together now.

Let me know what you want, the more people the less postage we all pay.

Not sure how it is ...

Gday guys,

Doesnt look like this is going to happen.

I havent heard from rovertym in weeks, and that is after repeated emails.

So Im guessing they dont want or need our business very much.

Sorry about that, maybe we should try rover tracks.

cheers

Yeah Im guessing thats what he means by a "skid".

But ill wait till he gets back to me to be 100%sure.

Thanks for letting me know disco95.

Yeah getting it down to melbourne will be interesting, mihgt have a mate who has access to freight for his business, will look into it.

Yeah maybe its just ...

Ok finally heard back from them, He said they can get a full skid to Brisibane for $490.

But he didnt mention how much stuff will fit on said skid!

So im waiting to hear back from him on that.

Any ideas how we could get it from brisibane to Melbourne?

Apparently it is heaps cheaper for him to ...

Ok, well to the guys who asked "when is this going to happen?"

hopefully soon, within the next few weeks depending on when they get back to me and we finalise exactly what we want etc.

UNJUST, I will look into seeing if they can fit the bender into our lot of items, I guess it depends on how much ...

Ok, thanks for the reply guys,

Ill shoot them off an email tomorrow with a rough list and see what they can do for postage and ill see what they come up with.

Cheers

Darren

Gday guys,

Am looking to see if anyone is interested in getting some stuff from rovertym engineering in the states.

The cost of shipping for one or two items is heaps, But the guys at rovertym said the more items we can get the less shipping etc.

So have a look at there website and let me know if ...

Yeah what cloughy said, 2" suspension and 2" body plus a guard cut,
and even then they will fit snuggly.

Thanks rick and ralfie, yeah happy with how the rear bar came out, will see how it holds up under some rough tracks first though.

Yeah the sliders are LRA ones rick, only put them on the other day, but they look good and seem really solid.

Keep an eye out in one of the next 4wd Monthly mags for an ...

No the corners arent braced... yet.

Needed it completed fairly quick, but now realise they need to be braced back to the chasis, may need to modify my exhaust to do that, but its on the list.

Well, All ranges 4x4 were able to get the rear bar done for me quickly, and it came up really good. They also do some wicked winchbars too.
This is the first read bar for a disco they have done and will do more now if there is a demand.

This is how it turned out.

Thanks for the reply guys, Got in touch with All Ranges 4x4 and they are going to help me out, will let you know how it goes.

Cheers

Supertroopers are the red disco (exactly the same as the one in my avatar )and Grey gq wagon at this event. But your right a vehicle description in the results would be a good idea. Hobzee??

Another great event held by these guys! Cant wait for the next one!

Guys, anyone know of anywhere around Melb that does custom tube work, for rear bars etc? Ive tried Cheezy and flamin fabrication but they are too busy at the moment, I need some work done asap.

Cheers

Soldierboy, try rovertym in the states they do one, pretty pricey though, should be able to get one made over here if you show them the design.

Simple fix, buy a landrover!

no brake problems with mine!

Cheers, Still running standard axles, but expecting them to break, will probably upgrade to maxi drive's when it happens. Disco has only been on the road for about 3 months.
Yeah the guys at LRA are great, products are a bit expensive but we dont have much choice driving landies, not many people do ...

Now its like this.

Thanks for all the good info reddo, sounds like it might be a worthwhile exercise.

Cant remember the price of the longtravel kit off the top of my head, but i think you needed to have a 2" body lift to be able to run it. Check the LRA website for all the prices of the body lift and suspension kits ...

Looking real good mate, Very similar to my Dsico which Ive nearly finished, Took it out for its first test last weekend, went real well.

I still need to make a rear bar similar to ...

No it wasnt quite that bad disco1, i cant even imagine how the hell you did that!

So if welding is out of the question, the steam pipe sleeve or rangie ones might be the go.

HSV, where did you get those custom ones from??

Disco1, pm me some pics of your rig, would like a squiz.

Cheers

Has anyone strengthened there trailing arms? Mananged to bend one of mine on the weekend, and was thinking may be able to strengthen them with some angle or flat welded on top for extra strength. Anyone done this before? Cheers
