Outer Limits 4x4 Board

i bent one of mine. so i cut and sleved a spare i had and it is good as now. have given it hell and no bend.

got a couple. will pm you.

yeah i am not going to worry about the cap. was not sure how usefull it would be any way. I think i will just go for a marine 110amp battery and not use the amp while the car is turned off.

if i was to run my amp off my start battery and just the fridge etc off the second battery could i go to a normal deep cycle battery or is the current draw still going to be a problem?

Cool. thanks for your help.

I nearly always only use the stereo while the car is running. If i have the stereo on with out the car running i turn that amp off so it is not drawing a large amount of current. I am also considering installing a capacitor to even out the current draw so it is not so much high current pulse and ...

To all the guru's out there. i am looking to upgrade my second battery. At the moment i just have a marine battery for my second and i want to get something to help the fridge last longer. The problem i have is that my amp for my stereo also runs off the second battery and at peak it can draw up to ...

$20 per bush FTW. I now know where i will be going when i go coils on the zook.

It could be one of the bushes in any of the front suspension arms. Tho only reason rotating the tires would help if if they are out of balance. I would try to check all my bushes my self and failing that I would take it to get the wheels balanced and get an alignment. If you do get an alignment make ...

is it the hand brake stuck on?

if you want 33's and a daily driver you will need diff gears or you will chew thru clutches. x-fer gears will not change your high range gearing. i have got 34's (used to have 33's) and 6.5 x-fer and a 1.6 injected and it is a POS when in high range. as for clearance i have got spoa so i cant help ...

yeah on i think on the superior website they have suzuki to hilux wheel spacers.

mate, talk to shane @ "suspension stuff" in this forum. He knows his stuff when if comes to coils and has some really good flexy coils for gq's.

i would have a look in the a/c evaporator. the drain could be blocked and water could be moving around in the tray.

hey champ. i have got a SPOA in my sierra. I did not do the conversion but if you have any questions or need some photo's give me a yell. You are welcome to come have a look at mine i am up in noosa. I suggest going on auszookers.com and asking there if you have not already.

i had creased both my quarters in exactly the same spot. suprisingly on trees too. Since i have chopped the quarters and made a tube rear bar i have not done any more damage. IMHO a tube bar will stop you doing any damage if you do slide into a tree and still look good.

AFIK they will fit. but not 100% sure.

to get the best flex you want to make your shocks as long as possible. You could adust your controll arms your self by sleeving them but i think it would take a bit of playing to get it right. drop boxes are pretty tricky, unless you can find some to copy off i think you will stuggle to get them ...

Ryco filters are shit. They leak oil back into ther sump.

Every one says auto hubs are crap but unless you are using your truck as a comp rig or are running massive tyres ie. 37 i think they are fine. My mate has just put them on his ute with 35in MTZ's and he loves them.

I have a pyro mounted in the exhaust manifold (pre turbo) and under load, say going up a decent hill on the highway it can climb up to 650. With the sierra on the trailer behind it will get up to 700. That is with N/A pump (wound right out), 13psi and a dyno tune. AFIK 650 is fine, but i would ...

thanks for the offers guys but i am in QLD so frieght would be pretty epic.

Steve, i tried searching. i could not find much info on why not to run drop shackles. i have just installed some on my sierra and it gave me 25% more drop. how is this not an advantage? not trying to be and ass, i just would like to understand.

thanks mate. the other advantage with mq is the rear is off set. do you know if they are the same width?

yeah was also thinking of 60's. I have put drop shackles in the rear now. should see the travel. When i sort the shocks out i will send you a pic.

Tonka thanks for the advice. i will have to check that before i get to far into it. I was thinking of leaving the leaves in but that could all change now.

i dont know. have not got the diff's yet. did not know there were different types.

I am doing the same thing. I want to run 36 or 37in tyres and i want mor width cause i keep putting my sierra on its side so i am gonna run MQ diffs. They are cheap as (compared with GQ)and the rear center is offset so it should be a bit easier.
