Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Am a little unsure with the reasoning. I don't mean to sound rude. (if it comes off that way) Why bother cutting up a 100 series axle to turn it into a 79 series axle? If the only reason is to keep the mounts on the housing? Then you are going to cut them off anyway to make an A frame? I'd keep ...

A 304 will do the job but don't expect anything spectacular in standard form. But as mentioned above they have alot of options to play with. They sound awesome. Can be bought cheap. Not a bad option. But just because it has 8cyl does not mean it has more power. If you are swapping from 4spd to 5spd ...

In Victoria you don't need an engineers certificate if the replacement engine is of the same configuration and has similar power output and chassis mounts are left untouched. Making falcon Inline 6's a very cost effective and wise choice. But I think a 1FZ would be an awesome swap into the old 45 ...

I believe they are 70mm wider. So about 3 inches as mentioned above. "long side same length, short side 3 inches longer" comment. So to answer the original posters question. One would assume the front driveshaft would be offset 1.5 inches to the passenger side.

Landcruiser 4 speeds have a 1:1 ratio in 4th gear. Assuming you have 4.11:1 ratio final drives and 33 inch tyres, regardless of engine you put in, the input shaft is still required to spin at ~2600rpm @ 100km/h. Even with 31's at 100km/h the 4 speed will only spin at 2775rpm. A 5 speed will reduce ...

i have 305/70 MTZ on mine on 16x8s. they still have plenty of clearance between anything that looks like it will rub. unsure of exact offset. but they are sitting out a bit further than std.

if you want a quality brand of intercooler, i got the one for my 105 series from http://www.are.com.au" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Couldnt be happier. very good read up on their website and lots of research explaining alot about why its (most of the time) pointless to get cheap ...

Isnt the round crossmember behind the transfer going to be an issue in mounting the 5 speed in an earlier 45? The 5 speeds are roughly 75mm longer than the 4 speed, well the 4spds out of the later 45 series anyway. Not too familiar about earlier ones setup sorry. But you should be able to get the ...

the only 308 that comes close to your claim makes 418@3600, and that's the VK group A one... F's make closer to 300... and my argument wasn't "don't go v8" my point was more that a drag motor should stay in a street car, and even a standard 308 would be a better choice than the drag motor... on 36 ...

The doors will fit. If the 308 was used for drag racing it will likely operate best at peak revs, not ideal for 4x4 where low down torque is key. Just keep that in mind, you may be able to alter that with cam and carb changes. There is always gearing to help counter this. Plus the 308s probably got ...

Thanx very much for the reply macca makes me happy to know that the way i was looking at going is the way it looks like it works. Better get to it then and stop talking bout it :twisted: No problems. ;) Ford did most of the thinking for me. I used to own a FPV F6 typhoon. Had 307kw at the wheels ...

A mates GU did that too. Was about 1000km old. They tried not refunding with the same excuses as those described. He ended up getting his money back and putting the LSD back in. Not bagging them, that is only one out of the 30 i know getting around. And they cop plenty of 'abUSE'. But considering ...

Tried a quick trip around google. Apparently they are a confusing M24 stamp on them. Seems to be a few sizes and combo's with that stamp. Brought up a few questions, is it water cooled or just oil cooled? What exhaust flange style is it, and what does it measure. Most of the sites i found seem to ...

As for the first question i think personaly that 3" is a good lift as it doesn't require huge mods eg brake lines sway bars extensions adjustable panhards etc. and they handle much better. I had 5" lift in my 80 for around a month before replacing it with 3". I run standard 16x8 steel rims with 35s ...

Hi, I am doing a suspension lift on my 100 series very shortly. I am just wondering what size lift is a good height to roll 35's. I have been looking into a 4" or 5". Just wondering your thoughts and if possiable post pictures! Also has anyone turboed their 100 series 1FZ? Do they make good power ...

doesnt make any sence to me at all.. i know u have to put a CDL switch in if u dont have one, but thats the only time that i can think of that u would need to put another switch in Shouldnt need any aditional switches, it should work exactly the same as standard, only difference being High 2wd ...

I turbo'd my 4.5L 105 and its making 182kw @ the wheels. Through an auto with no intercooler running on 33s with a very rich tune. So rich it stalls at the lights. <--not good. Most people think its a diesel because of all the black smoke coming out of the exhaust. But that just makes it more of a ...

Some of their stuff is expensive but most of it is pretty good. Most of it is good in theory. The rest you have to modify to make it work. And they try telling you that their weld in, replacement engine mounts dont work because you aren't using their bellhousing, even though you have the engine in ...

i got 60 diffs in my 45. i ran 80 series rims for a bit. no rubbing on tierods. they were 5spoke ROH Alloys. im not too sure of the offset.

That would be the smaller SC12 i believe.

Ah, its just that i can only find low mount power steering pumps. And the engine mounts are using the bolts that they need. I had a custom high mount pump. But a few trips to the sand dunes have warped it beyond repair. It keeps spitting belts now.

**ORSM45 - the gentleman i bought my ls2 off had a 105 with the 6L. from what i gather, the 100 was designed to have the v8 put in them so i don't think room is as critical as in the 80. the chassis rails are wider (his was an IFS originally with the 4.7) and the firewall is different (both ...

yes u can,there one of the most common swaps,as to mod plating u will need to get engine mountings checked to get mod plate,though some conversion mounts go off original engine mounts,my hj45 has a 350 chev,it has a cradle on front of engine to mount up to the original h series diesel mounts and ...

http://www.flatoutoffroadracing.com/2008%20hyden%20400%20806%20race%20report.htm i wanna put a 6L in my 105 series and have major doubts bout the marks kits also. i am not a fan of the crappy 2 flywheel job with a bodgy input shaft extender. cant be good with decent power avaliable at revs. this ...

i believe when an engine is tuned to gas it needs done under load 95% of gas installers just rev the car to tune it believing this is under load. you need to have it dyno tuned for best results, in my honest opinion though you will never get it to run as good as the petrol if you want it to run on ...

im assuming youre talking about the supercharged v6 out of the commodore. its a pretty crap engine. a std naturally aspirated BA falcon motor puts out more power and torque. Id say its too small a gain in performance for the effort required to put it in. if youre going to all that trouble anyway, go ...

you guys are going about it all the wrong way! save the penny's buy a LS7 for all you whom dont know what a LS7 is, it is a 7Litre V8 that chev puts out! over 500 horses' from stock and 470Nm of torque you cant go wrong! i think you mean 470ft-Lbs which is about 630Nm. Gen 3's have about 470Nm ...

Hey rossco. yeah, its possible. i ran twin au fans on mine. just gotta have a relay and a thermo switch. (unless you just hook the relay up to the ignition wire) they are pretty cheap. think i did it all for around 120 bucks. makes your car a little quieter. didnt really notice much else. from ...

G'Day mate, 1Fz's are a strong motor stock. good low down torque. they go pretty well in a truck that weighs almost a ton more than a 45 series. standard they feel like they lack a little up in the top of the rev range. but with a turbo... hold on! im looking into turboing my 105 series at the ...
