Outer Limits 4x4 Board

just buy one its not worth the effort not to mention that its safer and has all ready had thousands of hours of r&d (I just works )

Gday mate talk to mick from superior engineering he will steer you in the right track.

know a bloke in syd that had holden 5L in a dual cab ln106 and it was very tight at the firewall only 5mm of clearance. thats with no body lift though.

Ill have 79 one please depending on price.

yeah mate marks adapters do a kit.

yes both drive shafts have to be resized

gday mate a winch will help get you out of the places that the others cant get in to. (some times you always end up just in deeper shit) and i heard somewhere that 79 series rear springs are longer than 75s so i recon they might work well with extended sackels. And when i get the lux going im up for ...

cheers it will be good to here how you went with it. and was your other slip joint that we talked about ok?

thanks guys i used the thin cutting discs and yes they do wear quicker. but other than that they were ok. to smooth the edges i got some scotchbrite discs and some flapper wheels and yes i still have all my fingers and can see.

cheers matt. So let me run this by you all. I already have to rezize both drive shafts so that cost wont change, i already have a spare trans case so i wont need to find one of those (how do i know there the right type?), so im guessing i need a dual trans adapter kit and longer speedo drive cable ...

bugger i will have to cut it off again then. that trail gear xmember looks the goods are they in the states? and i read somewhere that hiace speedo drives are the right lenght for duals is this right?

with the x member already moved to put the turbo 700 in would i have to move it again? marlins the go?

uuumm i also have one of those if u want

ring the owner then let us all know. thats really random

cheers was there much work involved? where will the hole for the 3rd stick come through? do you still use the same xmember in the same location or do you have to move it? and if you dont mind me asking what was the total cost?

get a a longer slip joint put in it.

good work

gday im trying to finish (read; get lux to a drivable state) after doing v6 and turbo 700 conversion and suspesion work and cant decide weather to just put gears in now or to go dual cases with standard gears in both. I still have to get both drive shafts resized so thats not a problem and i have a ...

gday mate the rubber ones will wear quicker but flex better. If your running them with greasable shacs its better if you use proper rubber grease as they wont deteriate as quickly. Anyone correct me if im wrong.

thanks ruff. 30 spline superset and hub gears its is then , just have to let the money tree recover it has copped a real hard pruning lately

so would i be right in saying we would be better off if we waited and saved to get axles and hub gears aswell as cvs at once?

Gday mate if your not running heaps of flex the 2 peice will be fine. and i just happen to have a full 2 peice shaft out of my old lux 93 ln106 i can measure it if your interested

in most cases you just remove the load barers and they ride ok, you need to look at shocks, brake lines, drive shaft, and steering. if you dont want to do all that you can redrill your spring perchers thats a easy fix with a lot less involved but wont move it as far forward.

Now why didnt i think of that? cheers mate. I got earmuffs and saftey glasses and a face mask alloy tastes funny and gives you a sore throat, prob leading in to allsimers or something

i will have to get some of the "wicked" polish :D but i have given up on polishing it sucks. but for all u people that are still suckers for polishing get yourself a "power ball". they go in your drill and make it alot quicked. and if you do this from the start you probly wont endup jaded like me ...

Cheers thanks for your help so far. I went down to the hardware shop and started asking questions and the 2 young assistants (early highschool age) were about as useful as a hot chick in a gay bar

Gday mate i ran my 35 claws with little scrubing, i then ran 4" springs with snake extended sha and and 3" body blocks without any gaurd trimming and not moving the front diff forward. BUT i would ifiwasyou run less lift in springs and put rear springs in front to move the front diff and get better ...

Gday im going to cut up some old alloy checker plate of my door inserts :armsup: . And wanted to know it you can use those thin inox cutting discs on the angle grinder for alloy? they say they can be used on steel and stainless and they are thin so i guess they wont clog up :roll: . any help would ...

yeah mate i used it on the bar on my commodore on it was really hard to buff off. I think autosol is one of the best i have used. but polishing sucks unless ur really and i mean really bored (and ur 4by is off the road )

as said before double and triple check its not left hand thread as you will open a whole new can of worns if you snap it in there trust me . By the way the tensioner pulley on the holden v6 in my lux is left hand thread, dont ask how i know
