Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Awesome so i may as well get a GQ diesel bell housing and gq starter that way its cheaper.

My question is will either GQ or GU TD4.2 bell housing bolt up to a ZD30 gearbox.

And my other question is will a GU TD42 bell housing bolt up to GQ td4.2 motor.

I have searched everywhere and there is alot of mixed opinions but no specific facts. Im not chasing stories just a yes or a no.

Any ...

I have also heard that the ones with the vac pump under the injector pumps were the weaker ones. There the only ones that come through work with issues.

Maybe front pinion bearing. just check it for any movement. But normally you no when there about to go.
Just a thought.

Cheers

I reckon try bleed the master. If you have bleed everywhere else starting from back left (longest distance) and worked your way up not much else you can do. They all bleed up fine dont they. (all bleed nipples squirt out). So may as well try the master.

Yeh your right we have had a couple come through work with the big pumkins all of them had the 3.9 ratio aswell. Not sure if others had different ratios.

I had to swap the flanges over on mine. Very easy to do

Depends what the 4.3's came out of. If there out of a gq coil sprung should be a straight swap. But the leaf sprung utes are different, bigger centre, bigger housing on the rear. Im not sure if any GU wagons came with the big diff. There is plenty of info on here. just hard to find.

Hey guys my dad is trying to get some info on a suspension conversion on his 2004 model F250. It is leaf spring at the moment but he wants coils. He really hates leaf springs. He has had patrols most of his life and loves the way they handle.

Info i need is.
Were can i get this done in QLD ...

I went 4.6 centres out of a GQ 2.8 into my 04 model GU 3L. It was a simple swap just had to swap the flanges over. Just one big nut. easy as. Just make sure the housing are the same size and everything will be easy as.

I had a set and these really did perform well on slimy rock hill climbs. And they actually last a fair time on the asphalt. Weakess point is defiantly there side walls. And i never had a problem in the mud. great overall tyre. not bad on the Black top either descent wear for a muddie.

But its a ...

I would be going after a 4.5 manual. I've got a 04 3L that went boom at 118,000kms and i have plenty of mates with 3L's and 2.8 that have experienced the same problems. But if you are going to engine upgrade you may aswell get something with the stronger running gear. (3L or 4.5L).

Its up to him. My mate does it, but only when he is in low range situations. Defiantly no high speed stuff. Yes u do wanna be carefull. It feels like the front diff is walking around and plenty of body roll. But if your only crawling you will be okay.


Why not look into superflex arms from ...

the 75 series window looks like a winner to me.

The smallest thickness i've seen was 1.2mm and had good results. I had a mate use 2mm but he reckons that was overkill. Personally i would go 1.6mm

I've got a pump here $30 if your keen 0425632020.
But check all your hoses end to end.

Nooooo dont do it.

I was thinking it was one of the 2. But thanks for clearing that up.

Cheers

And it seems to be on the diesels, they use .63 rear housing

I've got 6" Kicker splits in my doors. and have electric mirrors

But does it even effect your steering with hubs out. So what does it matter to adr. Correct me if im wrong,

If im wrong please explain so i can learn how it effects it while been in 2 wheel drive.

I went out with a guy who had a welded front. He drove it hard all day in 35's and didn't break anything. That was in a GQ TB42 wagon.

I was quite suprised, i thought it would have busted a cv first bounce.

Yeh my mate rebuilt his bottom end in the car.

Hey mate just make sure its not the bottom of sump that its hitting. Happened to a mates car. Unlikely but possible

Hey mate there is a Blue one on the way to Wamuran for sale. Looks awesome. Not 100% sure if its a full dual cab or just a big space cab style side. But that would have the rear barn doors to give you an idea.

Cheers, Shane

I thought they stopped doing body lifts. Is this correct.
Has anyone got one past in the last 2 months.

Mate drop me a PM i've got some 15x7 rims with patrol or cruiser offset there 6 stud and white. Give me an offer via PM only

Thats about the same power curve as my mate but he is only running 12 -13 pound of boost. Ill have a look at his next time i see his rig.

Mate if you wanna drive out to Woodford you can borrom a set of shocks to suit. Got some around here some where.

What is the difference between the 2.
I would only pick the disco because i no what it is.
My mate just got the full denco kit. Goes great but still don't no what sort of turbo it is.
