ok cool
so as long as they stay cool there fine. i was thinking of using 2 B & s cable

hi all i'm about to hook up my high mount winch to my gq. I don't really want to leave the control box on the top of the winch out the front, would much rather have it placed somewhere more protected. so my questions is can it be placed somewhere else? If yes, whats involved? do you need thicker ...

thats assuming that the previous owner never took it through water

does the control box on the front of the winch need to stay in its original place or can be moved elsewhere? i'm worried about water getting in

ok cool, i'll give him a call

its a second hand one, 6 years old and had no problems at all. I'd like a trained eye to go over it before i put it on the patrol

hi all i've just brought a high mount winch and got a few questions for you guys 1. where abouts can i get it check and serviced in melbourne? 2. what mods do you guys recommend to do on it? i do moderate to serious 4 wheeling but no comp work 3. are there places in melb that specialise with these ...

i had the same problem with mine, started off with not going in sometimes then never went in at all. ended up finding a second hand box for $400, heaps cheaper than a reco box, which some people ask around $1600

well could do it that way but it sounds like to much work

i just cut the carpet in 3 seperate sections so i can pull it out easily when it comes time to get dirty. when its in its held by the scuff plates so it dosn't move around

yeh, 350

hi all
got a mate whose building a fj45 comp truck with 350 chev. you guys got any recommendations for which sump to use? any particular brands/types?

Cheers

I've used this one and never looked back. Works all the time.

don't worry, found the fuse. 5th one from the bottom on the left hand side for anyone with the same problem.

Hi all Yesterday my rear demister was working fine then just stopped working altogether. The light on the dash switch not on either. Is there a fuse for the demister? I looked in the fuse box but couldn't find any fuse for it. Could it be anything else. Its come in handy these past couple of cold ...

The actuator isn't damaged. What could be casuing it to stick? It was working fine for nearly 3 hours before i went through a river crossing on the weekend.

Hi all I have a factory locker that works fine, but as soon a a pass through a river crossing or mudhole, it seems to come off and on when it chooses then not at all. When it did it last time i drove for the whole day before it decided to come on and off when i flicked the switch. The solenoid is ...

Hi all
for all the guys who have put 80 series bumpstops in the front of ya gq's, how did you do it? I managed to modifiy a pair for the rear but sratching my head how to put them in the front

Cheers

anyone??

hi all
I'm about to install a 4" lift in my LWB GQ. Now i've read that most guys extend the front bumpstops by installing 80 series bumpstops. Is this the best option? Is it straight forward bolt in? Any pics would be good

Cheers

15x8 is accepted pretty well for 35's (neg22) @$55 for white

so are you saying that -22 offset should be enough? I brought a new set of rims a couple of months ago and they are -23. what is the actual offset of the landcruiser rims?

I'll be getting a 15x8" rim. I'm not really worried about legality, there for play. The tires i'm getting are MT Claws, 35x12.5x15. Will i get away with 8" rims or should i go 9"?

Hi all
I'm gonna fit some 35"s to my gq, what rim offset should i ask for when buying new rims? Stay with the nissan offset or go for another?

Cheers

is anyone using pro comps shocks? i was thinkinhg of getting them for my new lift

so if i get a longer pin for the passenger of the rear swaybar, can i just lengthen the cable witht the adjustment?

yeh i'm getting extended disconnects for the front, just unsure how to to the rear since the factory disconnects are there. can ya modify the factory system or change to a entended manual disconnect in the rear?

Hi all
I'm about to put a 4" lift in my Gq and have factory rear disconnecting swaybars. For the front swaybar i'm gonna put manual disconnects, but what do i do with the rear one? Can i keep the factory one or do i need to replace it with manual disconnects?

Cheers

so is it just a matter of preference which way people go. I'm about to give my gq a 4" lift and i'm confused/unsure which way to go, drop boxes or radius arms.

cheers

How are drop boxes fixed to the chassis?

Hi all
Everytime i take the gq offroad i always get muddy water inside the headlights which stains the inside of the light, making them useless. What lights does everyone else have that might stop this?

cheers
