Outer Limits 4x4 Board

So whilst shopping around for new torsion bars today, after calling a few suspension mobs, and visiting a few reputable suspension/4x4 supplies stores, Ive been told that all torsion bars are in effect the same. As long as they are 40mm lift indexed, all of them will act/react the same. So I have ...

Yeah I'm sure i had mine switched through the accessories so that once the car was off they were separated anyway. but i wasn't certain it was a good thing to do. thanks mate

I have a dual battery isolator, lookinh to wire it in shortly. does anybody run a dash switch instead of just hardwiring it to an accessory circuit?

Ok different question, has anyone noticed any detrimental issues with flipping the ball joints and shaving the bump stops down?

Gday boys and girls, Im currently building a 92 4x4 spacecab. I want it to be a bit of an all rounder, but this is the first rodeo I have played with. I have built hiluxes and sierras, cruisers and patrols, but this is the first IFS truck I have played with. I want it to be a bit of a tourer, so ...

I am trying to find the pics of one my mate bought on Ebay last year, it was from Bega, But has been lowered now. Grey Hi-top, NT, 5" reverse shackle and SPOA on 31"tires, 7" Bathurst Globe mags :armsup: I found what i was looking for. Hi top, NT, SPOA, 5" reverse shackle on 31"s 8O A mate bought ...

nice lookin rig ajsr where are the pics of the new one????? hey turbo tonka u do a build up of yours??

well...... thats different.......

did an accelerator cable, due to my brand new dual battery kit leads somehow rubbing through on in, in some muddy crappy rocky area just as i had to climb this mongrel of a staircase. Pulled some of my speaker wires out, tied it onto accelerator cable, through the bung in the firewall and woohoo ...

Im "patiently" waiting for someone to give me some WT diffs, tie rod/steering arm and front and rear driveshafts with transfer flanges i have the transfer case, but im building it with reduction gears rear disconnect and twin sticks, so Im taking my time waiting for the diffs and all the rest (mine ...

ITS ALIVE

MATT MATT MATT u need to have a can of SHUT UP haha, its almost finished! I fixed my front bar, my rear bar, i made some door skins out of some white vinyl crap haha, got the rear wheel carrier on, fixed the drivers seat. AND IF YOU ANSWERED YOUR DAMN FONE i might have some sun visors :finger ...

basically, for the people who dont know: blue slips in NSW are usually difficult to get through. You have to get your vehicle back to standard . Now by standard I mean, if it came out with 26 inch tyres, you have to run 26 inch tyres. If it came out with door skins it must have door skins. If it ...

hey kids...... well looks like its going to gather rust and dust in the backyard for a while........ the bloke doing the blue slip said, well no oil leaks..... front bar is ok..... rear bar is hmmmmm ok, tyres, flares shackles ummmmmmm ok no sun visors, no back seat, no rear wheel carrier ...

moph and just cruizin, exactly, u act like a smart arse, n you get your arse handed to you. i know a few mechanics that do blue slips and they are car fanatics, they picked the job because they loved the idea of playin with cars for a living, and have made themselves more knowledgable about ...

Just cruizin, all I was saying was that, for the stuff he did get me for, wasnt "overly" relevent, I mean the tyres n shackles are well......... a bit more obvious, and the fact is MOST, not all but MOST cops dont know bugger all and the RTA either A: cant be bothered printing, or emailing, or ...

Hey all, the other day, whilst drivin my sierra, i got pulled over........ when i asked the copper, he told me it was because of the fact i was drivin around with no doors. Now most of us know that as long as we still have mirrors on the car, no doors is ok, but the cop didnt. so while i was trying ...

ok, some easy fixes, im still relatively new to the sierras, but ive had all sorts of troubles so im almost well versed in the little buggers 1: change your fuel filter, pour some metho into the fuel tank, say a cup roughly, leave the cap off and run it for a bit. a short drive should suffice, whack ...

so it wouldnt bolt straight up to my F10A? thanx steve

so now does this change the matter? or still paddling up the same proverbial creek??

to do the power steer mod, what do you need?? what is the full bolt on kit for a sierra/jimny power steer? arms, motor, box what??

yeah, well the 5 spd is apparently off a santana?? and yeah, Im sort of running out of options yes the 1.3 is an option, but i like my 1 ltr so im trying to exhaust all other means before i do the swap. So the 5spd is a definate no? thanks for ya help

i have a 1ltr 4 spd, and the box is dying, almost dead as we speak. Just wondering if a 5 spd box off a 1ltr will bolt up? and do i have to get a different clutch? also will it bolt up to the original driveshaft or do i need to change that? any help?

in regards to my last post, by asking which shock would "work with" a drop shackle, i was trying to find out a shock option that would handle the downward travel, whilst still having enough upwards travel to accommodate the way drop shackles work, i understand the need for new shock mounts, and im ...

gday, i have an 84 1L zook NT hardtop, with 31 buckshots, 40mm OME lift, drop shackle rears, greasable hilux rears on front, RAW hilux front shocks, ironman suzuki rears, but the ironmans dont work with the droppers, way too short, with my experience hilux shocks in the rear were too hard, and not ...
