Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Didn't have any Pede's to borrow..........

I would be keen to try the EFS's next, cause my T/D's are just about rooted, the adjusters either keep moving around on trips or jam up where they are set, just cant seem to keep the muck out of em, I like the idea of a seeled, no nonsence, self valved long travel shocky at a reasonable price, can't ...

if your running the standard points setup (I had the bushes/bearings and weights done) dont even bother mucking around with them, go after market dual point or electronic, worth every Dollar!!!! My ex MQ was a missile, was good seeing the big brother 4.2 GQ's in the rear vission mirror squerming ...

I purchased the xtra heavy duty 6" spring/shock , Dobinson/tough dog combo nearly two years ago (the big bore adjustables have been faultless), after six months I removed the front springs because the buggers would not settle?, replaced them with 5"kings and 1" spacers and the truck sits level and ...

Just outta curiousity, how big a tyre can you go without chopping the gaurd??
Was thinking of putting bigger tyres than my 33's on my 6" lifted rig, but I really couldn't be bothered chopping the gaurds. I'm on the tools for a living, and the last thing I want to do in my own time is get on the ...

Well it looks like I wont be getting that kit as there are bits i dont need (ie Adj Panhards as i have them already, steering damper)

This is the new revised list I am trying to get the missus to approve ;)

Tough Dog BIG BORE 9 Stage adjustable shocks
Lovells Platinum Series 4" Coils

3rds Rear ...

Have had mine over a year and they will be coming off very soon, always coming loose, vibrating that same chassis mount to the buggery, no better flex than a similar brand without the added bearing and the ride over the corregated roads is not what i was looking for in the first place.....OMG i ...

I have been looking around for a settup that mounts the turbo high up and found Turbo Glide a reasonable price. http://www.turboglide.com.au/ .

those look the goods.....my problem is how the hell do they mount them without welding them on, ARB said they can bolt theirs on but their is no way you can have a plate high enough to put a bolt over the chassis without rattling on the floor when wheeling, so i'm looking at a different method..
a ...

remove the sway bars, you will get just about max travel from your springs without starting the long process of MODS, the front of the MQ/MK suffer from a shitty shock absorber mounting position design, if you know some one HANDY with the tools they can re-position top mounts to accomedate longer ...

I just got my genuine nissan 4.375 centers shipped up from a Sydney parts peddler, cost $1000 exchange were hard to find..., TD42 not struggling as much with the 35's on hills now. Cost aroud $2200 to fit them at Out A Town, with a front air locker of coarse

I say "If you like em try em", tyre arguments are the easiest to start on any forum or gathering, Thats becuase every one is an expert!!!! There are so many good tyre brands and tread designs out there, it is darn confusing...I stuck with my BFG'S cause they work for me, find one that works for you ...

Cheers boys,

should i make up some joint to replace that joint between the body and the chassis that holds it all together on a roll?

No , I just marked both sides of the joint (where the splines are) and tried to evenly adjust both ends till the dowel stops were back to there original position ...

Also apart from the different chassis width the actual mq bar from flat section to the top of the tubes is about two inches higher so you will have the middle tube braces right in the middle of your headlights???

Save ya money for a while longer and get the drop arms...!!!!!!!!!!

You do not need seven xtra inches under yer chassis.......

Been looking around for a while trying to decide the appropriate charging system for my needs, and I am now more confused than when I started???
I will be using the setup for winching and running a fridge!! Some people say duel cranking batteries are the go, others crank/deep cycle.....be buggered ...

Haven't had any problems with mine.....make sure you insert them correctly and it should be all APPLES....I only have them in the front.

i was told late jan for gu's by tjm

I have asked three different places and got different answers so I am not holding my breath with this product.... :roll:

If the ARB item is hassle free for a few years, i'll keep it and replace the O ring, if not the TJM pro "might be out for the nissans by ...

Mines got 6" lift and the standard gear bolt straight on with the original brackets, but as soon as I hit the trails you can hear the swaybar rubbing the front drive shaft, so it no longer has a home on my truck!!! ....you soon get use to the oversteering.....and adjusting the T/D's up a notch...

The TJM / Jac Mac units will be good units but are still having supply problems with the parts, none for the patrol till probably late next year, so I cannot wait that long... ARB is going my way....

Mate save your bucks for now and get the springs and shackles happening first. The setup your after will require the top front shock mounts to be removed and raised because they are a limiting factor in even a standard MK!! Then if you know someone with a forklift you can use, lift a front an back ...

Try this...

I would ring Climax Suspension, have a talk to DINO, 0249668669...
He invented them and I know his old Susuki (tweety) was mad on the travel ramp....its alot to do with the way the system is set up and the longer shocks you choose...be honest with him and tell him what you expect...see if it is ...

i would like to know wether it is coil or not thanks, what models are coil ...

Close up of the MOD.....

Wait 3-4 months...they are in final development, due Feb-March, according to one Rep at the 4WD and Fishing show in Melb last week. Definitely NOT the only time he fielded that question during the show........[/quote]

I asked the guys up here at Newy and they couldn't get one for a Toyo at the ...

yes my old girl in the back yard is the same month, MK square head light job.

Flip rear shaft back to front .......
Front crossmember, I marked the area with a marker, then cut it out and welded a peice of heavy wall pipe in there, engineer loved it...

Sorry I can't help you on that one Surf, I am going through the process of elimination with Lockers for the front of my GQ, and most people I have spoken to have had bugger all problems with the ARB air lockers when installed correctly, I was looking at the new TJM pro locker but they are a no go ...

I'm running standard aswell, looking to go the big round truck setup as an auxiliary filter to ELIMINATE the bulldust for ever...
