Outer Limits 4x4 Board

i would swing towards five 0, these days u can buy complete motor , computer and harness for $1000 to 1500 every day of the week, most still with plenty of life left, The cost of a gen111(5.7 or injected 350) is still five or six grand including computer and harness. With the four or five grand u ...

i'd guarantee it'd be the cv joint, i don't know your knowledge extent so don't take this personally but if u don't know what u are looking for it probably would look ok but any wear would cause "clicking sound", i wouldn't rule it out unless you are confident with your inspection

the collapsable spacer is about 20 bucks and seal about 4 bucks, but to do it right u have to use a spring gauge to check how much drag is on the bearings and there is a measurement of force applicable , to do the dodgy way requires a rattlegun and a good feel of assiness.

maybe fuel vaporization, fuel line to close to exhaust or something heating it excessively

or maybe vacuum leak, when hot a crack in manifold for example might open up and loose vacuum causing it not to idle
sorry will have to be trial and error on a few things cos so many options

yeah known 2, i think it is called castlemain rod shop

if you have dramas with clearances you would have to pull the crank to do it right, u can't just put oversize bearings in, u have to grind the crank oversize and match the bearings to suit. If you are goin to the trouble of checking u should be prepared to do whats necessary cos by disturbing it you ...

cheers guys , great pics, i prob shouldn't have posted this subject in technical but i thought someone might have had some conversion pics but can't complain with what i got.
Makes me real keen to do the 80 series mods

does anyone have any tough fj45 pics,i just want to see what else is around, i have seen a few on the members page but hoped there was more i had a bit of a search for topics about 45,s but i couldn't get any photo's on any conversions, eg 60 series diff's or a turbo 700 conversion any info would be ...

My opinion differs a bit,we fitted a kit to a 1hz only had done 260,000kms and the owner wasn't keen on doing the mains and bigends, he didn't get away with it for long and within three months he had spun a bearing, might be due to his driving style or other mods which i won't mention but it is ...

we used to service generator's throughout wa outback and forever going through river crossings, we used to raise the breathers right up and use a common in-line fuel filter on the end of extended hose, worked well

thanks sixty, i will check them out, I hate the shit too but thats why i have a unsuspecting apprentice who is unaware of the itchiness of fibreglass

V840: i will get you some more pics, they are on my work comp so i'll rip em off on monday

spot on BJ42turbo, sounds fair.

But seriously what components are you including cos i've got a pump on my injected five O, so i would be interested in knowing what the rest would be worth

nah, i think more like $50,they are dime a dozen these days.................................by the way, did i mention i'd be interested in buying it

where do you get the glass parts from, have been looking with not much success, i am in perth and got f#@k all over here that i can see

has anyone converted from single master cylinder to front and rear master cylinder with booster on fj45, by the looks i'd say i'll have to modify a brace to fit booster in, is a 64 model
