Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I'd love to see how the build is progressing

If it was a choice between 2.8TD GU or 4.2 EFI GQ at the same money I'd go for the GU, not everyone has the extra 5-10k for a 4.2 petrol or td. You still get the stronger axles & CVs, 4.6 diff gears, better brakes, better interior, updated looks.

I bought a 4wd Systems Lokka for my Mav but it wouldn't fit up front because they're 2 pinion and my diff was 4 pinion, so luckily I was able to run the Powertrax Lock Right (which I prefer anyway). It makes the steering heavier, smaller turning circle, etc but I had twin Lock Rights in my Zook and ...

Its an 88 Maverick LWB Wagon chopped to an extra-cab ute.

What locker options are there for 4 pinion H223 31 spline front diffs? I purchased a 4WD Systems Lokka but the mechanics found that I have a 4 pinion front instead of the common 2 pinion. Aside from changing the housing, are there other options? Will the Richmond Lockright 3220 4 pinion to suit ...

Don't do it, Sierra drivers all over Australia need you!

The flat plate would be easier/cheaper to make but then you need to fabricate a steering shaft anyway so it defeats the point of having a bolt on kit. In my searching on here i've seen some people use the standard pitman arm, if the box was positioned slightly lower than normal it should help with ...

I'm still waiting on an adaptor to my PS conversion too. I've cut a block of alloy down into a wedge but I think it might be too thick/greater angle. I can't test fit it until I do my g16a engine conversion.

Im 18 yrs old and doing a apprenticeship in cabinet making u Grimace, u reckon i can afford to mod my zuk??
You can't afford to mod a Zook so you're buying a Jeep??? Mate, I changed from a Jeep to Sierra because the Jeeps cost a fortune to run and repair. You could run and mod the Suzuki for less ...

Here's the thread on my flares. Car and flares have since been resprayed black.

Don't get a cheap Cherokee, mine cost a fortune in repairs. I'd go for a GQ, there's plenty around 5k and they'll be much stronger and more reliable than your other options.

I've got a soft back ute, MU Canvas makes products that suit. Mine doesn't leak when driving in the rain but water will run from the tray into the cab if parked facing downhill slightly.

Driving it as is i'd give it a few days before you do the headgasket or piston ring. It sounds like its just free-boosting ie. the wastegate isn't opening at all.

The RB25 T3 turbo is designed for a 2.5L engine. Even with the ceramic exhaust wheel and ball bearings its not a quick spooling turbo. On an RB20 engine they don't spool until around 3000rpm and hit full boost until after 3500rpm, you're not going to be seeing boost on a 1.3L zook until well past ...

What happened to the hilux diffs and comp buggy noddy? Having trouble selling your zooks?

That's awesome. My front looks like that with a 1/2 RUF but my rear has stuff all drop.

91 WT, standard 1.3 with extractors and exhaust, 31s, 3.9 diffs, S1 Rockhoppers

Foot flat to the floor in 5th it eventually gets to 100 (up to 110 on a downslope) but no chance uphill.

Are you serious? You want to build a custom chassis buggy and you don't even know what a locker is?

Search would suggest he has a Vitara.

Ah yes of course, the original support doesn't line up. It should be easy enough to get someone to weld the support to the right location.

I've only got an arc welder so i'm looking at doing the 1600 tip over the 1300 tip. My only problem then is the support. If the 1300 didn't originally come with one is it totally necessary?

Mine can be a bit clunky around corners but its a fair price to pay.

I'm trying to make a wedge for mine, i think i might have cut it a bit thick though. I need to wait til i do my engine conversion to mark the holes and countersink some bolts.

I've got 2 or 3" suspension lift and hammered seams, no body lift.

I've also got an ammo box, picked it up from an army disposals store for about $15.

I bought one of the DSE coolers yesterday but it doesn't quite fit behind the handbrake, it sits on an angle because of the raised section behind the seats. I'll just make up a chock to sit under the front and it should be sweet

That doesn't matter though because the search doesn't let you only search within the thread title anyway.

if I could offer another choice
check out the range of silverstones
they have a really good simex extreme copy
but also a few that look like baja claws and ive heard they work very well.
and silverstone prices are right
I have the simex copies and they rock
good luck with your choice
I would agree ...

I agree, the simpler the topic you're searching for the worse it is. Usually it just comes up with "No topics or posts met your search criteria".

$350 is pretty good. I'm fabbing up my own wedge out of aluminium, i've shaped it i'm just deciding whether to tap holes for bolts from both sides or countersink some bolts into the wedge.
