Outer Limits 4x4 Board

the good thing about the TD42 is that they are a tough motor. takes a fair bit to kill them, but it is not impossible. things to look for are the basics like service history - they need to be serviced every 5k in order to get the life out of them. other things, are they overly rattly? could be a sim...

Im YET to see a japanese car manufacturer fit headlight washers to a car with HID's. Lexus, Honda, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Suzuki all have auto levelling and headlight washers fitted to all cars with HID's, just to name a few. Most are cleverly designed so as to pop up out of the front bumper w...

hey all, i am having an electrical gremlin that is now giving me the royal shits. i am constantly blowing the park light/dash light fuse in the fusebox in the kickpanel on my 95 GQ patrol. I have managed to find two separate electrical issues that were causing this to start with, but now i cannot fi...

Hey all, i have tried searching but cant find anything. i am wanting to know how to get to the A/C condenser drain tube from inside the cab, as i think that mine is blocked. i had a look today and everything looks to be covered, and i cant see it from the inside. now that the warmer weather has star...

i have been quoted that the 285/75/16 KM2's wont be here until the first quarter of next year, at a price of approx $344 each.

if you want some of the current style it is a 6-8 week wait.

Hey guys i have just purchased a new draglink for the front of my GQ but i cant for the life if me get the old one off. is there a trick to it? i have tried the old hitting it with a hammer trick, but it does not appear to want to work (and i dont like beating the krap out of things on cars). i have...

mate, i was looking at the two when i bought my last 4wd. ended up with the challenger for many reasons. first, it has a stick to engage the transfer - irrelevant i know, but still. all challengers were the 3.0 V6. mine had 32's on it without any problems. 33's required a lift and some minor trimmin...

Fricking strong, let me tell you.

Just bought it on wed, so no action shots yet.... not long though

To answer your question, yes it is, in part, caused by your aircon. your dash plastics will also be to blame. you dont need to use chemical to remove it, just a terry toweling cloth is enough to just wipe it off. obviously if you have used chemicals it might not all come off the first couple of time...

Their strengths and weaknesses are that they are a jeep. now the purists will tell you that this is a good thing. those who are not will knock them. they are very capable 4bies and can go some awesome places. their chassis to tend to flex over rocks, but then i spose this helps with articulation... ...

hey mate,

i own an 02 model and i believe that the manuals were the same right through. live on the gold coast but could arrange to copy and send if you want. let us know

a highlift jack has many uses, however are baulky to carry on the car (unless you have a carrier for it somewhere) and are very unstable - this can be both a hindrance and a help. exhausts jacks are very good for sand and mud as mentioned, however they are baulky to store, and their use is limited t...
