Outer Limits 4x4 Board

after blowing 5th gear in the gu tonight,i need to no will a 4.8 gu box,bolt up with no dramas,to my td 42, the 4.8 seems to have the best ratios and no 5th gear issues,is this a straight swap? thanks bill

Im wanting to fit a after market temp gauge in my td 42 t,but cant decide on the best location for the sender unit?,whats your thoughts on gauges,mechanical or electric?does it have to go in the thermostat housing or is there a bung in the block,that can be used cheers

we had a great event,got in at 9.30 sunday,with both cars in one piece,done all the questions,missed 2 secret ones,a bent steering arm,and no brake pads,left on the back of the shorty,apart from that,a very good weekend.....Bill drafty those green beadlocks you were running ,who makes them?

havnt heard of any body doing this ,is there a reason why ?

custom front and rear 4" longer made by local brake shop $40 for both...Bill

M 46.... Andrew and Bill.

i run 1 " in mine seems to work well.

when your finished welding ,put both the axles in an fill full of lead,heaps stronger,havnt had one brake yet..

fitting a turbo to the patrol, cant deside on a Denco or DTS,has anyone had either of these fitted,if yes are you happy with it?..cheers bill

get a price on a unimig 240 great welder there about $1250 in vic

what oil pressure do you run on a engine that is at running temp, on idle,mineis dropping to about 10 on the factory guage,i have heard that the factory guage isnt that accurate is this true? thanks Bill

they are the same

hypolux is correct about 2 mm to fit cruza rims to a patrol

Im in vic,was at boho on the weekend in the black shorty,how much they worth drafty? , and how long ago did you do origon track at the otways thinking of doing it in the next few weeks

thanks ,i was going to make my own ,then i read you can buy these,just wanted to now where to ring,to see how much they are.

where can i get front control arm spacers,wanting to move the diff foward about 25 mm

wheres that at christover,looks like a fun place

thanks cam and christover,just finished pulling the centre out ,will weld it up monday ,can anybody tell me how much oil to put in thr rear of a wide track 1.3 ?.....Bill

love mud...my zook runs a 4AGE 100kw and 3 speed auto 32'' 10.5 mongrels ,i live near the otways so mainly wheeling in the mud,got 2 spare diffs,so not that worried if it shiats the centre,main concern is the axles (no spares) . Cam is your zook still running the 1.3 ?and what size are your tires ...

Thinking of welding my 1.3 litre rear diff,how hard is this on axles and unis,i have had welded diffs befor in other 4x4s ,will the zook drivetrain handle hyway use thanks Bill

thanks for that daz, see ya there

Would have to be GU coil cab turbo diesel ,because there tough and plenty of after market parts available
