Outer Limits 4x4 Board

i have seen hardtops, but they are always on vehicles for sale and no one ever wants to seperate them.
if you come accross a supplier, i would love to know where to get one also.
do you still have your worn out soft top? im leaning towards getting mine used as a template at an upolsterers.

hi there, i havent been very active on here lately, but i have also done (with a lot of help from friends) an SAS on a Pajero. granted i didnt work out as planed, but we got it drivable and im gradually getting closer to sorting it out. such a shame how life gets in the way. i used a modified hilux ...

I have a 93 Jtop and would love to see another. I think solid axles front and rear are the way to go, doesn't need to be full offroad capable out of the box, but the scope to mod with out having to chop the chassis to pieces would be great. A high torque motor, preferably a diesel, for fuel ...

is cheezy racing still around? hes in melb and has done at least one.

right on schedule. i hate to think how long mine has been "in the works" for, and now its relegated to sitting on the side of a drive under a tarp under a tree.... oh welll.

wicked glen...

very cool charles. im still yet to get mine down to my flat and have another go at her. but i went and lifted up the tarp the other day. still there. so m getting closer. hopefully this weekend ill bring it down. saw you a couple of weeks ago sitting at the harbourview lights, has a very cool road ...

very cool. keep up the momentum!! cant wait to see this finished!

cheesy racing in melb? they did franks LWB. is that still floating around the site?

if using patrol diffs you would have to change both front and rear due to width. with a hilux diff and IFS hubs you get very close to the same width as standard paj, therefore you dont need to change the rear. and ratios. i have seen a competition paj in NZ with a supercharged lexus and patrol box ...

Hi Sam Yes it is Brians workshop. I've had the truck about 4 years now, so yes you probably have seen it around the Hutt a few times, maybe in the Akas. cheers Charles i didnt realise it was you Charles. thought it was bens brothers old one, but ive actually been on a trip that you were on through ...

very cool man... very nice tidy job! is that brians workshop in naenae? they did the modifications to my diff housing when i did the SAS on my paj. think i also know that paj from around the hutt a while back. i will be watching this thread with interest as its somthing i intend to do to mine when i ...

is it coils in the rear? i assume it is...

if you get the diff, get the little compressor that goes with it. should be behind the plastic trim in the backseat on the left hand side.

count the bolts holing the centre into the housing. will either be 10 bolt or 12 bolt. if its 10 bolt(the triton), it SHOULD be the same. 2.5dt and 3.0v6 pajs are 10 bolt, 3.5 and 2.8dt pajs are 12 bolt. ratios.. if its a jtop paj with diff lock, chances are it will be the 5.29 ratio. if its hard ...

was it the front or rear shaft? im asuming the rear as you called it tail shaft...

just seems really weird that they would make a shorter one for the jtop. esp as im sure they have the same wheelbase, and 2-3 inches is a big differance.

thats weird. id be taking it back and asking them to ensure its from a swb. the swb and jtop have the same wheelbase so should have the same length tail shaft. other option is that its a swb from a gen 1. think they have shorter transfur case.

so its an intermitant thing? how often does it happen?

i have 3ltr jtop. i put aftermarket springs in the rear, wound the torsion bars up and did a ball joint flip, then i was able to run 33/12.5 on crusier offset rims that stick out quite far. it only scrubed when turing full lock. 33s will fit yours with a minimum of fuss. i think you should just go ...

Whats the width of a surf housing compared to hilux? I guess the surf is wider to match the IFS? yip it is. aparently they are the same width as a pajero housing. steering geom? how do you mean? we sat the diff in situ on axle stands in the place we wanted and measured the castor angle at bout 3deg ...

dont bunderas have an offset rear pumpkin? wont you have to centre that to put it in the rear, or are you only using the front diff? nah mate im only going to flip and use the front housing, not sure what ill do with the back diff yet but it came as part of the package, if it has an ARB in it ...

i've been thinking about doing this for a while, i was lucky enough to find a set of bundera axles both with arb air lockers and all the suspension gear with them including the radius arm mounst off the chassis, for only $1800. apparently they are the most commom used because of they're width, i ...

its on the chassis plate, top passenger side of firewall. also has things like the diff ratios, motor and trans details and think even the trim codes.

and i actually had one of those flares untill i moved overseas and threw lots of stuff out...

hey frank, dont spose you could post up the pic of the gen 2 pto layout? im not computer savy enough to get that program working on my laptop.

forgive my ignorance, but what is this ASA program?

hope the housing comes with new seals.

hey man.. before you go to all these troubles of new extension housing and the replaceing entire driveshafts..... have you replaced the drive shaft ujs yet? simple job if you have a vice and a socket set and maybe an extra set of hands. and come to think of it, why did you decide to get cert? did ...

that is a very cool link... added that to my favorites so i dont lose it. looks like they made 2 pajs up... and at least one of them was originally an evo, theres a pic of the rear shock and its independant.. if they turboed both then id say the evo is 6g74TT MIVEC.... mmmmmmmmmm and looks like you ...

if you can speak japanease or know someone that can, these guys may be worth contacting... seem to have done a few turbo pajs and various other conversions.. http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=ja&u=http://www.bigrun-dunk.co.jp/&sa=X&oi=translate&resnum=1&ct=result&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dhttp ...
