Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I think the kits are generally the other way around so you don't piss off oncoming traffic on low beam. This would make low beam halogen & high beam HID So you have replaced the H4? bulb in the round 7" headlights with a halogen & a HID bulb? Or similar? chunderlicious Posted: Tue May 26, 2009 8:39 ...

This might sound a bit better now and i am assuming that you are after a zook motor so i would suggest a swift (i think there is a holden varient as well but i cant think of what it is at the moment but it is just a rebadged swift) or you could get a vitara motor or put a toyota 4AGE in it ( or if ...

You do see alot of vehicles with them though... What else can you do when you are carrying 2 spare 33's? I took the single one off the back door as I don't want to be replacing the door. I was going to throw them up on the roof racks but is a fair weight up there & also to do by yourself is quite an ...

Thats what I was trying to solve... Will only be me, the missus & the dog. Couple of swags or tent. Already got draws in the back & raised suspension with airbags in the rear. It doesn't take much to bring the weight once you have steel b/bar, winch, & all the other bits..

thanks for that Turbo GU, was hoping it was going to be fairly light. Just all the bits & pieces seem to be adding up!!!

Just chasing a rough weight of a twin wheel carrier for the back of a GU... Obviously it would be more than the stock bumper, am trying to work out if I can stay within GVM easily enough... I know weights will vary so I am jus chasing an "estimate" even. Obviously the more accurate the better for me ...

Is that for a pair or just a single light??




Thanks for the quick reply to the pm earlier

nope no better, but if you haven't had a good look or don't have a good understanding on what they are/ how they work go in and have a look in the box. Is much smaller unit than i imagined...

A little bit of info on the HID's from Jaycar.

$100 each - 1 bulb & ballist

come in H1, H3 & H4 only 35watts


Oh & the IPF's do rust, it doesnt take long either...

Apparently Jaycar do HID conversion for a very good price (someone told me $90),

Any more info on this??? Quality??

No worries.

Really appreciate your help mate....

Okay sorry from my manual it called the hemisphere the carrier....

So if I follow the same steps with it as I did originally, but just swap the "hemisphere" part I should need a diff specialist to reset it all. We punched alignment marks into the original diff to mark it...

Thanks heaps

Sorry, I am talking about pulling the carrier that holds the lockright part out of the 3.9 diff centre & swapping it with the 2 pin carrier in the 3.7. So changing the carrier part only out of a 3.9 centre & into a 3.7 centre.

Does that make more sense?

Thanks Jas, the swap is so I can run the lockright in the 3.7 ratio front diff. I have had 3.9's in there & have blown the rear so with easy to get parts (the 3.7's) I am trying to get it going again with the lockers... So I am able to just do the carrier swap at home, no need for specialist tools ...

When changing over from a 2 pin carrier in the front diff to a 4 pin am I able to just take out the original carrier & replace it with the 4 pin or do I need to get this shimmed etc to suit?

I bought mine with a few mods done already including the engine conversion. I have replaced the rear springs that with the car with OME HD as I carry a fridge & quite a few tools/gear etc. The wiring on the engine sucks, is just a mess. There are a few bits & pieces that I would love to change but ...

My mate just bought a rebuild kit for his gearbox and a few other bits & pieces. This would have been a week ago? No dramas with that, think he was ordering gears this week also.

Lock rights are fine. Never had any dramas with mine. Although it has only been in there for 8mths or so...

Once again can't fault Sean from Lowrange, is more than helpful & very cheap compared to Aussie shops!

I think you will find that is the 1st part to go on any zook.

Just cut it, make sure its tidy & wack a tube bar or remount your bullbar on custom mounts.

Would like to see pics of this done also...

Well unfortunately this will all be put on hold for a while as I blew the rear diff on the weekend. Car had to be trailored home :(

Thanks for the help guys & I will be coming back to this when I find a new diff...

I am not looking at getting that carried away with my rig but it does look sweet. Custom leaves, I have been quoted $55 per leaf & up to $80per leaf. I am in Cairns though so I would imagine you guys could probably get things much cheaper down south. Anyway, had at the car again this morning & have ...

The fuel filler is already pulled back as far as I can & seems to have enough room for the diff to go back.

VR Rodeo how is your shackle angle with an inch extra spring? Was it enough to give a 45ish degree angle?

I run 31" BFG's with birfield rings & 6.5's. I do not give it heaps except when 2wd playing in mud. I am locked front & rear and generally only crawl any rocky surfaces. Haven't had any dramas as of yet. With the locker in the front you will not need to give it heaps all the time when climbing hills ...

What weight are these "plastic" trailers? and how much $$$ is pricey?

This will not all be happening for a month. Going up the CREB track this weekend as it is. Will be doing the RUF once I get back & the rears once this is done. Its not a daily so gets done when time permits... By the looks of what I have atm I should safely be able to go back an inch I think ...

What shocks are you running front & rear DEE?

Thanks for that guys.... GRPABT1 - what are these shocks setting you back? Pm if you like My second leaf on the rear will probably just be my second leaf out of my lifted pack... Would it be worth/or possible to get that main leaf made out of thicker spring steel to strengthen it? Dee - Thanks for ...

Hey guys I am looking at doing a RUF to my zook. I have been reading all the threads from the search function & still have a few Q's as I am thinking about doing it a little differently. My plan is to do a similar front setup to what Want33's did however as I am in Cairns, Suzuki Carry springs aren ...

Well good luck with it mate.

Don't mean to be so negative but mine worked for a few weeks and then stopped. Atleast it passed our RWC....
