Re: Allied competition beadlock wheel 17in

put the rim on a 20 litre drum so the tyre can hang down evenly. Once you get all the bolts started do them to 10Nm in a cross pattern, then 15, then to 20. If you have trouble getting them started buy half a dozen longer bolts or some bits of threaded rod and nuts to get things going then once you ...

That would make the d60 at least 2inches bigger overall happy to be proven wrong. maybe a photo of both with a tape measure. i owned a jeep on ...

Re: Comp Results

i hope it is not a advertising catalog as we need a good Australian magazine dedicated
to 4x4 and offroading as even dirt comp is going wayward and is half filled with quad
bike rubbish now .

would be good to have a Australian magazine similar to Crawl as that is probably
the best 4x4 mag around .

get the tubes cut off your housing and welded onto the gq centre section so you still run 100 series
axles , cv,s , hubs , steering and brakes . to do this you will need to use an arb locker and change
the side gears so that the toyota axles fit the nissan locker .
