Outer Limits 4x4 Board

thanks guys.
I have the computer and loom for the 4.8l, so making it run should not be a problem.

Will a TB4.5L auto bolt up to a TB4.8L motor ?
its in a race car and the auto has been manualized.

Thanks

check the relays.
next to the battery i think they are.

here is a 4.5L on ebay for sale.

have a look at my other postings.
I put the 4.2L head on a 4.5 bottom end.

The ports are the same size, I would say the valves are the same size as well.
The intake manifolds flow better i was told, not so the head it self.

i paid $2k for a 4.5L ,230,000km on it about 4 years ago as a spare,
I only fitted it 3 months ago . the old 4.2L on gas blue the head at 501,000km, thats not a bad run!!.

In the end i recoed the 4.2l head and put it on the 4.5 bottom end.
goes good.

yes you will need to cut a bit of the floor so you can shift into 4x4.
take the old mounts out and fit the new ones.
if you raised it by 25-30mm you may not need to cut any thing out to go into 4x4

I have this problem two.
Fitted a new seal and speedy sleave, drove 2500hrs on the road, parked it up for 2 weeks no leaks. Take it out in the sand dunes for a run 150km park it up and the inner seal is leaking again.

If the diff is beat slighty how can you tell when the bent is and fit it?

I looked at a leaf spring gq ute today and the diff's front and back did not look the same as my gq wagon. is that right? I am looking to buy it and change it to coils all round. May need to put a wagon diff in the front as well as stearing box, stearing arm and drag link. This will be a comp car ...

Is it hard to convert a leaf spring ute to a coil cab?
Whats the best way if possible?

i fitted the 4.2efi head and intake to a 4.5 block.
some rooting around but it is on and running great.
took it out on the beach, has a bit more power that the old 4.2L with 500,000km on it, but that may only be that the new 4.5L motor has only done 200,000km.

very happy with it.

try a new radiator cap.

my was getting hot and it was the radiator cap that was gone.

I have a GQ 94 efi . I have one standard twin piston on the back and one gu single as well , fits and works.

But i am looking for a standard twin to put back on. right hand side i think.

thanks guys i will be going for a 2 1/5 inch.

is it worth puttung a 2.5" exhaust on 4.2 efi. Welding a pipe straight through the cat and fitting 2 new hi flow mufflers ?

Now the floor on the pasagers side heats up a lot, and i was thinking the cat may be blocked and over heating it as well as heating up the floor.

Any help.

I am not going to!

I do not know if you are ment too.

look on ebay for a rebuild kit, i got one i think it was about $130.
the death wobble will be more like the panarm bush worn, put new rubber ones back in.

It all got to hard and i put the old 4.2 dizzy in.
Had to some the gears over and cut the bottom of the shaft off below the gear and open up the slot hole that ajusts the timing.

these are not the same the 4.5l gu bottom hose comes straight out from the bottom.

Can anyone tell me the angle of the bottom radiator out let.
standing at the front of the car and looking down does the out let go up and to the right ? the same as a GQ 4.2L radiator.

Thanks

thanks for that. drifter

Some info for someone else that may try it. The plan was to swap the intake manifold from the 4.2 and put it on to the 4.5 motor keeping all the wiring the same. The intake studs on the 4.5 are set up the opposite to the 4.2 so the intakes cant be swaped. The 4.5 oil filter housing is water cooler ...

should be the same.

should be the same.

yes that should help.
I need to know what all the wires do that go to the dizzy.
I am fitting a 4.5 bottom end with a 4.2 head into my GQ.

can anyone help with a wiring diragram for a petrol GU 1998.

thanks

Hey Dez, i found that that happened with my radiator too. I found that the fitting where the cap screws onto to filler was to deep and that the cap rubber couldn't seal. I ended up fitting a thicker rubber and this helped. I hope this helps. Daniels I run a toyota steel cap of a 75 or 80 series ...

Can someone give me some info. I am putting at 4.5L motor with a 4.2L inlet manfiold into my GQ and have had some problems. Hopefully this is the last problem and i can get it running. The 4.5L dizzy has a differant plug with 8 pins in it and the 4.2L has 4 pins. The 4.5 dizzy has the coil mounted ...
