Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Having no tray and a stuffed motor. If I keep the gearbox and rear diff center. its basically a cab on a chassis with a front diff and rear diff housing. How much is that really worth?

It's a good cab. No damage. Only one tiny spot of surface rust. I've seen the cabs sell for 2 grand.

If I were to ...

I think it may have been an option. Any of the 75s I know off that had dual tanks had the second ones gauge and switch there.

Shorty I have a daily now. So I'm in no rush to sell or buy. I got a couple guys at work who may have some one they know interested in the 75. It only needs rings and rear main to run right again.

hey guys, ive got a 1989 75 series ute, it was a daily driver/ week end warrior untill the motor decided to go, that was about 6 months ago. as yet ive not done anything to it. i had planed on building it up to run some light comps and use on week ends.

i still want a project, but have been ...

i definitely dont want the busted 2h or the tray but some one else may have uses for them, either a rebuild and turbo if thats what they want or a tray for their chop

event is similar to mud racing, but includes larger jumps, so needs to be capable of landing hard. the event i will be building it for is the love day river land challenge and mud dust and music(which unfortunately starts tomorrow so next year it is)

it wasn't that i couldn't afford to fix it, the ...

not for a road car though, no rego. so im thinking any thing goes

never had an issue with noise with my lokka, occasional pinging when the locker teeth werent ingaged (from coming around a corner or changing lanes and stopping), but i striped the diff down to have a look, and everything was A1, i never had any clunking or chatter ot even banging when changing ...

i have thought of the 4bt, but can also get my hands on a good running chev 6.5 for 4 grand.

ive thought about the ls1 or 2 but what i dont like is all the efi, as the event i plan on building it for efi will let me down, id say out of the 30 or so petty fourbys that ran in it, 20 - 25 of them had ...

hey fellas,

well my 75 decided to pack it in about 2 months ago, rings are gone, so the cruiser is off the road, i have a new daily driver not a fourby, and the cruiser is sitting on the back burner, but i am slowly ammasing money to throw at it. it may take 2 years or so but im going to do what i ...

i have a lokka from 4wd systems, i loved it, ( ute is currently dead with no gearbox ither) motors rings decided they would take a holiday.

but if i had the coin( and being that we are getting a great exchange rate) i would go for the detroit soft locker, best of the soft lockers, i would go for a ...

i have no idea. when i pulled the gearbox out it was running the same as when i bought it, so i think it had stuff all compression back then.

thanks for the replys guys, i am most likly going to sell the car as is and cut my losses.

cheers

hey guys,

so i had decided to sell my 75 series ute. i being an honest person couldnt let it go with a leaking rear main(had only been leaking for a very short time) so i decided to put one in, got the gearbox out, and went to undo the clutch, had a small 3/8 ratchet on the bolts on the clutch to ...

Heaps better than Toyota standard ones then.

That's why I've been told to run straight gas. Use a large gas tank and a subbi. Or i was thinking two large tanks. I eventually plan to dual cab ute it so room wont be as much of an issue. I have a mate that was suggesting a wax product that is for warerproofing dizzys. So it seams to me there is a ...

Hey guys. I am in the process of seeing my yota for a gq. So far the advise I have been given is to pick up a 4.2 petrol either on gas or convert it to straight gas and turbo it. but what i want to know is how well does this motor take to water and how extensively do i have to water proof it. I did ...

Thanks heaps guys. Your replies are great. And sorry that i phonecrastinate but after sitting down thinking hard. and wheeling on the weekend in wombat. I have decided to go to the darkside. Not cause my car isnt capeable. As I held my own against two gus and a qg.

I want more room. I still want a ...

Or get a single phase motor put on top. Or use a grinder. Once you do enough notches with one. It becomes easier. And you get.really good at judging the angle

That was what I thought. But didn't know how long a hydro could be away. Could be a year or 5. Ok well I guess ill figure it out. I have a turfer for pulling it right side up if anything goes wrong.

I always go with a minimum of one other fourby. I will always carry a turfer. Even when i get a powered winch. I'm thinking of getting a tigerz winch until I replace it with a hydrailic one. Im not thinking about a front locker for a little while yet. I gotta lern the rear one first

How do you guys know i havent had driver training? You guys have to get out of the habbit of thinking every one is a newbie. I have driven enough to know what i need. It's more my list is so long and while i spent over a year getting rid of debts and buying a house I had enough money to maintain my ...

I want to be able to drive what ever I come across when im out. I prefer mud and muddy hills but i still enjoy rocks and rock climbs. I enjoy every thing. That's what makes it a little hard the plan.

Hey guys hows it going.

For what ever reason i seem to be lost at where to direct myself on modifying my 75. Its already got 33s and a rear locker. So now I want to sort other things out. And i dont know where to start as I know I will never stop. My list involves every thing.

I think I should ...

Hey guys. The glow plug circuit on my 89 75 series is playing up so I need some ideas on how to fix it. The problem is when I now go to glow it the light telling me its glowing goes off immediately not after 5 seconds. so to keep the light on and glow the circuit I had to push the key further than ...

I buy both engine and gear oil from quality performance lubes. I buy in 20 litre drums. The hydraulic workshop I used to work for used them. I like their oil. And it comes in cheaper than the big brands. And is good. I use their 15w40 for engine and 90w gear oil for the rest. Had no issues in over ...

My 2h is a slug and uses a bucket load of fuel. I would say its got to be the most un economical 2h I have heard of. Go a 12ht if you can. Better on fuel. Better motor. You won't regret that. And its the same amount of work as a 2h to drop on. I should really stop telling people to put 12hts into ...

easyest would be a 60 series sahara seat. i liked mine in my old 60 sahara, so much better than my 75s concrete slabs

there should be a screw on your swivel hub that will stop it turning in far enough to scrub, but it increases your turning circle as it takes full lock away from you. i know a mate had it on his hilux, as he told me he adjusted it as his tyre was hitting his leafs, but i havent had a problem so i ...

i would tend to think it was the loose bolts that caused the problem, as the body would have been able to move against the body blocks with force, like when of road or even just a harsh enough bum in the road
