Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi guys im not sure about the 4.8 but I do know from my own research that if you do a 4.5 conversion you also need the ignition barrel and key as it has a sensor in the key or remote can't remember which one. For the imobiliser in the computer. Other wise it became a paper weight Might be worth ...

Hi all im in the process of turning my 04 exceed into a touring rig and wanted to know what 2 inch lifts people are running and could recommend for me. It will have the normal bits on it like steel bar, winch,long range tank, water tank,roof rack, rock sliders etc etc but having never done up a paj ...

I think it could also be a safety issue with not having normal headlights on the front of the Vehicle in question. During a gps event or something similar when trucks are going every which way and the truggy is head on to another truck he can not dim his head lights and the on coming truck will be ...

It does not matter what time ya did Dave you were 11th seeing your time will just prove how slow you actually are. A few of us thought you must off forgotten you were racing and just come out the park for a drive around s**t happens better luck next time.

yeah thats what I was trying to do save as much as possible with what I had. It would only be 1 or 2 nights at the most, I have a camper trailer but sometimes it to much effort for just a quick sleep or that unexpected place that might be too nice for only 1 day. revhead 307 I tried your link it ...

thanks guys there is some good advice and ideas there but keep em comin im always open for more cheers.

I am after some info if any one has done a fit out on a GQ with a double bed and a fridge obviously with all back seats out don't want to get a roof top tent the handbrake won't climb ladders lol but want to see if it's possible. Any advice and or pics would be greatly appreciated, other wise I will ...

A similar idea to this has all ready started at city view 4x4 park in beaudesert Peter is doing it it's called the city view trials. You don't not need a cage,harneses or nets it really is a entry level event much better for the so called (family wagon) than what your proposeing sorry Dave . I don't ...

unstable jas's navvy here ra-ool-ly. Bloody great weekend out at cityview 4x4 park amazing peice of country you have there peter thanks too everyone in some way or another for making it the most fun weekend that I can remember in years. We need to do everything we can to help pete keep his park open ...

I have one of each on a GQ lwb everyone told me AVM was totaly S**T. But I got one as a spare just incase, and about a month later I had to put it on. That was about 6 months ago and it's still on there. I run 35s all the time and lockers and have not had a problem yet. (touch wood)

Gday shane, no it only happened the once and nothing since. There are alot of big name guys in the winch challenges up here in Queensland that have them. The 4 or 5 I know love them and have not had any trouble with them that i have scene or heard off. But there warrenty is the best bit because it's ...

Nah just had to start running EFS have not had any problems with them since. and they have been in 5 trucks for over 3 months

yeah we thought the same. One over flexed some how and ripped the strut clean out the end of the bore. (at pace), The other did it's seal and they wouldn't warrenty it. They are alot more than a efs aswell, but at the end of the day it comes back to what works for one prob won't work for another. In ...

x2

I second that

We have also tried fox shocks, Tuff dogs and rancho with incab adjustables the fox shocks lasted 1 race and 1 muck around in the bush. the tuff dogs are not to bad, but are not as smooth to ride on and ranchos lasted 3 weeks with no comps we are very hard on gear.

It might sound obvious but check all your fuses carefully I had a similar problem and it turned out that I had over looked a blown fuse. Most likely in the panel near your accelarator hope this can help.

Hello shane they are an excellant smooth ride shock over fast and slow stuff. They don't get as hot as pro comps after big poundings and they cool down quicker than them also. Which should in theory make them last longer as the oil will be cold sooner. There warrenty holds up also we had two of them ...

My mates and I use to swear by pro comp 9000 for comps and play. Untill we got our hands on the new efs extremes there about $220 to $250 a corner depending on were you go but they offer a 3 year unconditional (spelling) warrenty and are worth it. We have never looked back.

Sorry i have tried to post to things on this forum and got shoot down twice so whatever i will just keep my ideas to my self...

P.S i forgot to mention that you did so whats it F**KEN matter. Thats the point of this sort of sight to add info others may have forgotten.

Hello dmcruising a friend has put a switch on this set up which uses the normal solenoid you have. It opens the other battery and you can start your car. But not sure how he did it, My advice would be chuck it all in than ask an auto elecy to hook that bit up it shoudn't cost stuff all, let us know ...

once the sticker is off $2 degreaser and a rag also works really well.

yeah mate heavy is an understatement but strong they need to be as there winch challenge trucks. I even ass ended an 80 series at 70 kmph I only scratched my fairlead but I wrecked his brand new arb rear bar. Thats what ya get for stopping on a wet wooden one way bridge with 5 other 4x4s behind him ...

Hello to you sir I have just helped a mate do one. If you have mechanical knowledge you should be ok, we are still having trouble with the computer and sensor wireing but we will perserver. It has takin us a number of weekend hrs so far but were not auto elecys so we kind off expected that. As with ...

Rhysta when we did it we had the engine on the crane still and lowered it very slowly with the engine mounts on it. We sat he motor into the bell housing and all that crap than as we lowered it down the rest of the way the mounts layed on the chassis rails. We bent the tops over and welded them in ...

Gday mate my mates and I all have custom tube bars with high mounts fitted. We have used 5mm tube but 10mm plate steel were the winch bolts to in the middle and brassed the shit out of it. I can put my bar into a tree and winch a car up a hill on it and it has not bent on me yet. But make sure your ...

Hi all Rob Marshall and Stouty will be there with bells on going hard and fast got a 3rd at rocky going for a first at lcmp catch them if you can lol.

gday all a good cheap dual battery setup is a $27 dollar solenoid from super cheap. It has 4 prongs on it, 2 big 2 small hook up power off your main battery onto one of the large terminals. Use a small one as your earth. (too be safe run same gauge cable for your earth as your power wire). The other ...

gday mate yeah the other guy is right. My mate is doing one as we speak there is a mob called marks addapters they make the complete kit everything you need including the bell housing addapter plate in a box for around $3500 it's not bad meant to be able to be done by a backyard mechanic but no real ...
