Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hey guys
I have a gq ute with a ls1 with a 4 L60e auto that is about had it the ls will be getting camed later as I can afford it but the auto will have to come first. Looking at the future as I will run a bigger cam what size hi stall and cam combo are you running . Thanks for any info

You have proberly got it worked out now but l
Unless the cam is big you should be able to drop your idle that should help if the cam is quite a big cam with a tight lsa you
Will have lower manifold vacuum at idle making your brake booster less help

Hi guys
I have a new set of 2" g60 springs in the shed I got them for a project but then changed my plans. They have been siting around the packs have been played with eg pulled some leafs out but they should still be in the shed some where if someone wants them let me know.

Just to be clear did you get a new tail shaft or just replace the uni's in the old shaft if new shaft check pinion bearing and back lash on diff

Hi guys I have a hydraulic winch that go's good but seeing all the twin motor setups and 24 volt high mounts how good do they really go as in line pull and line speed at let's say 10 000 lbs pull . I know that my winch will pull 80 feet a min at 10 000 lbs is that what a good high mount will do or ...

would not be that hard to bolt one on just need a adaptor plate or a new manifold with the right flange size I am guess it would be a t04 flange. but I think a t70 will be to big and will spool way to late

Drop the sump and crank in the car pull the piston that is cracked buy a new piston then bolt it all back up it will cost you sweet f all

Hi Aj

I built the 5 link myself but made is as a bolt on unit. yes i agree with your arm lenght worries with the flex i get now the arm need to be longer but do work. I have been looking in to how to upgrade my front end to make arms longer just haven't got to it yet I will post some pics tommorow.

If you have only started to hear the noise after you lifted check that the splin on the drive shaft is not worn ,check uni joints and the angle on the diff flange should be the same as on the transfer case if not the uni joints will fight each other saying that if your caster is right the flange ...

Hi fellas I turboed my tb42 about 18 month ago and it was going good power wise but was useing alot of oil , as far as i know the engine was standard before I turboed it . Because it was useing oil I rebiult it and got it balanced and the cam re grownd. The cam was grownd by a so called turbo/cam ...

HI Rev 310
if i were you I would go a 4" flexy coils and a 2" body lift . It will give you good flex with the xlink and be more stable than a 7" sping lift .

Scottie
had a think and my turbo is a gt35

Hi Scottie I run a Impco Etype converter and a impco 225 mixer . ignition you realy need to put electronic module in dizzy and then use it to switch a high output ignition module eg I.C.E. or MSD. Turbo I have a T4 can't remember turbine or housing size. Do it right don't cut to many corners or it ...

It bepends on what you want from your truck
the flexy coils are softer but you get good travle the strandard coils being 6" you will still get good flex but will be a harder ride. flex will have alot to do with your suspention setup eg shockers and linkage setup
