Outer Limits 4x4 Board

OK tell me the best way to do that!

That will happen, is it legal though?

Yeah i only finished the PVC snorkel head the otherday... Ended up using 2 X 22deg then a 90deg cam up ok.

Where can you get a lwb chassis easily? I was going to do a engine change sometime soon so maybe i should be ...

well it did smash some glass.... my mirror that was burried about 1/2 foot in the ground.........

snapped my snorkel off, already glued that back on..

was pretty slow when we hit, my mate put the video of it on youtube already, easy pulling her back over thank god....

Yes i have considered chopping the back off...... not sure what it would do to the structure of the vehicle though.....

The plate for the huge antenna has another plate on the inside the same size with welded nuts on it.

How exactly do you sort out the indent in the C pillar behind the window as ...

Fixed

here they are.







What do you think, a sledgehammer?

yep the inner and outer is pushed in...

Hi all,

I was out 4wd'ing today and the zuk fell over into some mud..... Most exciting to say the least.

Anyway only damage was on the rear drivers side panel above the fuel tank filler. It is pushed in a fair bit and runs around the window.

What is the best way to push this out, or is it ...

Mine was doing the same last week... Check the Uni's on the jackshaft my front one was cactus. I had massive slop and wobble in it.....

Took at out after some hammering and well one of the uni points had all the bearings grinded down to rust.......

$25 and hey presto she is all good again

Hi Guys,

I have done some searching around. I am looking at buying a Air locker for the front of my 85 zuk.

I would go to ARB, but i remembered hearing that there are better/cheaper places to source one?

30 X 9.5 tyres fit.....

I have the 15x7 sunny rims, with offset and they fit stock.

You just need to put in some extended bumpstops and some light guard massaging

Sam

Hi,

Check your PCV valves and carby vacuum things (if you still have them )

Sounds like fuel, my car was doing the same, i changed the fuel filter and was all good.

What about the fuel return?

Sounds like carby if it is taking time, check the choke and flap?

Just ideas?

My Speedo used to out with stock tyres by about 10kms..

Now with my 30's it is spot on....

My cable broke and i changed today....

Hey,

I noticed heaps of ride improvement with the new springs, and some extra from the shocks. I was very impressed with how i used to drive through drains in the road and so-forth and the car would bounce me through the roof, now it just softly rides through...

The new tyres made it even nicer in ...

Thanks Steve,

I will try spacers. Yes i have a much wider track, and i felt it the other day when i was driving on some nasty angles, felt a lot more comfortable.

I will let you know how i get on.

Sam

I was just measuring the gap between the bumbstop and the axle compared to the tyre and the guard.

It will need at least 25mm of spacer, any thoughts?

Sam

Hi here are some pics of the car. Let me know if these help at all, or if you need me to post some more.





Thanks From Sam

I have just put some batteries on charge as i have not taken photos of the new tyres on there yet.

It was hitting to start with on normal road driving on the front bullbar mount out on the edge. I trimmed the corner of this of and now it is fine even when 4wd'ing.

When heavily articulated it will ...

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the reply.

Yes my rear bumper is customed up i made it ages ago tyre swinger job and it is attached to the chassis.

I think i will use the mullet and put some inch spacers in then and see how i go.

I have some rubbing at the back wall of the tyre against the guard, will a ...

OK Thanks for clearing that up.

I am guessing i am most likely better putting in a bodylift to fix it and just make custom bumper and bullbar brackets.....

I want to get my steering aligned now that i have all the suspension done and new tyres (it was out before) will a bodylift effect the ...

Hi Again,

Thanks for the info. I have got on my OME 40mm with new shocks and the suzi is riding really nicely now.

Are the front springs with this lift supposed to be as high lifted as the rear?

I have about an extra 1.5 inch lift at the rear of the car.

This is making a real problem with my 30 ...

My 85 SWB has a G13A in it.

Came with aricon and a fancy shelf like some models did.

Yes i have a similar problem atm. At low speeds taking off under load my rear uni or something near the trans case vibrates up and down well that radiates to the gearbox lever. When driving the gearbox lever is fine but the tranny level vibrates more than normal..

I have checked all CV's nothing ...

Hi,

I found out today that i need the OME013 shocks for the rear and the OME031's for the front.

What do people think of upgrading the steering damper to an OME with bigger tyres? Will you notice any difference? If so what will you notice?

I noticed heaps with the Springs changed, but a steering ...

Thanks for that guys.

Yeah i will ask them tomorrow.
It took them 4 days to get the last lot in so i might have to wait a while.

I have been doing my normal 1km trips in the bus just with the original shocks and emu springs. Let me say they are worth the money!

Cheers again.

Hi Guys,

I put on my 40mm OME leaf and shock kit today that i organized from ARB....

I got back home in the shed and started pulling one part of at a time. All good, put the new leaf on, good and then went to put the shocks on.

Well my Sierra is an 85 NT, they supplied my with 2 x N43's and 2 x ...

This is mine that i am working on..... Head not quite done yet, has been bashed a few times and still good.

Diff breathers connect in the bonnet, cost me nothing so i am happy especially after taking on water a while back.....

Hi,

The three in my car are for;

4WD indicator,
Reverse indicator
5th gear indicator

According to the Zuk manual

Yellow and red are reverse or backup
Blue/green and orange/black are 4wd
the other one is your 5th gear, i think blue/orange and something?

hope this helps?

Hi,

My carby on my 1.3L suk is a piece of sh*t. It is constantly having troubles with idle and auto choke.

I have found how to fix eratic idle and strange running conditions though by having a look at the fuel mixer screw. Mine was slightly bent and looked a tad ragged, a couple of rubs with some ...

I am looking into doing a VW diesel swap.

The ACME guys are really helpful! I am talking to German Quality Parts about imports, but still awaiting a response.

You can get shitloads of 1.5's in Aus with OK mileage for way under 1K.

I am trying to find 1 1.6TD to put in, especially after yesterday ...

I made up a tyre hanger as my door nearly fell off.

It holds a jack lifter and a jerry as well.

Works nice and takes the load of the door![/img]
