Outer Limits 4x4 Board

The 13BT has the H55F 5 speed gearbox behind it on my MWB cruiser. I dont think the hilux boxes and diffs are built as strong as the cruiser ones.

I had a 93 Pajero and killed it. The engines are alright but once mine got to around 250000ks the engine was shot. Ended up selling it for 1500. It was in good condition but I couldn't justify spending 3 grand fixing a car that was worth half that. The V6 engines go hard but aren't built to last. Go...

I'm about to order 16x8 with neg 34. off-topic, but am i correct that they are same as 100 series stud pattern? If so, where did you order them with the 34 offset? Mike Greater City Tyres Bendigo is where I was going to order them. I think they might be ROH wheels. Most/some wheel manufacturers wil...

Yeah. I usually find around town if I'm giving it a bit of right foot it will peak at 12psi then when cruising will drop back to 3 - 5 psi. On the highway, cruising in 5th and doing 100k's, it will sit much higher (8psi or so) and it wont take much accelerator at this speed to get to max boost. A sl...

I run my 1HD-FT at 15psi, I have had it as high as 20 for the dyno. If problems were to occur from cranking up the boost is it likely that the engine would blow or the turbo would fail? I spose if the turbo failed it would spit metal through the engine. Do you think the 1HD-FT can handle higher boo...

what he said

its showing 10lb boost its a ct26 off a 1hdt does that sound right Is that stock boost mate? I have a CT26 on my 13B-T and stock was 8psi. I now have it at 12psi and it goes much better. 14psi is about the max you want to go or you might blow the turbo. If anyone is running higher boost than 14 ple...

Mines post turbo too but in a 13B-T and the gauge reads farenheit Spelling???
I would be easing of the right foot at around 950F
you can do the conversion

Cheers.

Thanks Troopymad,

good info. Are those rims of your 16x10 with that offset?
Ordering up some rims soon

Cheers

Sorry mate I'm not 100% certain where your water/fuel separator would be. But it should have one. I own a landcruiser
so Patrols are foreign to me. Have you got a work shop manual? Should be in there.

x2 on the water separator. These get overlook when servicing. I think you need to drain it every 12 months so the rig doesn't
konk out at an inconvenient time. You just unbolt the bottom bolt let it drain and then prime the fuel pump.

Hope it helps.

Hi Troopymad, What offset are u using with the 35's? I'm about to order 16x8 with neg 34. What size rims are u running? Thank you. Gav. PS: that 5 inch lift of yours, is that 2"inch body and 3" suspension. I've got 1" body and 2.5" suspension. I moved the diff forward 1". I ...

Thanks for all your help fellas,

Stick-ons sound like a good option.
I'll go down to the tyre shop and checkout the options.
The spacers make the cruiser look good but I dont want to use the spacers
if I can make the wheels fit.

Cheers,

Gav.

These are my wheels!!
Performance Wheels - Outlaw - 15x8 - neg24 offset.

Hey Weiner.

The wheels are alloys. Can it be done?

Hey thanks Matt,

Stick on weights hey!!!!!
I'll check it out at the local tyre shop.
Always helps to know before you go down there.

Cheers,

Gav.

Bummer!!!!!

I'm due for a tire change in the next 10,000kms so I will probably change my rims to. Even though I don't want to cause they look sick as.

Thinking black sunny with more - offset.

Any other suggestions on wheel rims?

Its a BJ74, so pretty much like any 1980's Landcruiser front end I think. The wheels are a tight fit without the spacers and it was just the wheel balance weights chewing into the edge of the rubber boot on the tie rod ends. Does anyone know if the weights can be moved to a different location on the...

Thaks for that Weiner, So with -24 and a 2" spacer I'm the equivalent of -49. Would the -44 offset you have create the same stress on bearings that I have with spacers and -24 offset? I only ask because I have read opinions that spacers are bad news. More importantly - What wheels have you got ...

Hi wheel gurus or people who know more than me!! (wouldn't be hard). I will start with the problem. I have a set of Performance Wheels 15x8 Outlaw style with neg 24 offset. They rubbed on the tie rod ends so a whacked on some 2" spacers. Problem solved???? Well the wheels (Balancing Weights) do...

Hey All, I installed the caster shims a week or two ago. Pretty good results. The cruiser handles way better. Not as vague and unpredictable as before the shims. Probably should have got 4 degree but its a huge improvement as is. Got my center pins from pedders after going to a couple of auto parts ...

Hey Skeg,

Do you have the pyro pre or post turbo?
Do you reckon it matters?

Cheers.

Yeah its in Farenheit. Doesn't really matter. Goes up to 1600F. What sort of engine/turbo have you got? I have a spot in the dump pipe but I think the manifolds have similar holes to tap. MUD has heaps of info on the procedure in the 70's section. Not sure why it says 600F on its not turned on. Its ...

Hey mate, A couple of weeks ago a bought a Autometer Sport-Comp Pyro 2 5/8. A got it from Performance-r-us on fleabay. Cost was $225 delivered. I like the price. Autobarn quoted $400 for the same one. It came in a kit with everything. You just need to tap the manifold. I dont know if its any good ca...

Is it petrol or diesel mate? On my diesel the boost gauge is tapped in between the turbo and inlet manifold. Sits steady at 0 psi at idle.

Does yours need a tune to run smother? Does it run rough? Might be a timing problem? I don't no, just a thought.

Cheers.

you could try mud. Someone might have done it there. Toyota specific site.
Love my outerlimits tho.

Hi Cicak,

You could try Roodogs. They might be able to help.

Might have to give them a call.

Thanks BigBoy, I'm running 2" spacers with the -24 offset mags. So in reality I'm at about a -75 offset. Three inches. The spacers give it a mean stance and clear the TRE's but could be adding to my steering troubles. Although the problem is the same since I had the cruiser and did al the mods....

I'll swap the wheels tomorrow. Gotta do a rotation. Didn't do much last time tho. The wheels are Performance Wheels - Outlaw 15x8. They have a neg 24 offset. Apparently thats the correct offset for this model cruiser. I'm doing a bit of research on offset to try and work out the perfect offset for m...
