Outer Limits 4x4 Board

If that becomes a big drama id rather a smaller lift.. Something to suit 31's n give good flex.. I was looking at a rocky-road samurai/sierra 6" coil kit, looks pretty legit.. see what dobbson can do first though, i'll be calling them today about it That kit is not designed for a coily sierra. It ...

awesome thanks for the links

Probably a stupid question but anyway,
Does the rear axle bearing cap on a hilux use studs or bolts to fix it in position.
If they are studs, does anyone have the part number?

for the front diff save for an air locker.
only go an auto if you have power-steering or twin sticks

sorry i forgot to mention im using the bundy centres in hilux housings, with high steer. You can't run the high pinion centre in the rear, the gears are reverse cut and are not very strong like that. im not going to run the HP in the rear. I would be swapping the rear locker into the front centre ...

I have a pair of air locked bundera diff centres, and i want to run dirty 30s in the front diff. The front centre is a high pinion, the rear is a low pinion. I was thinking of using the rear centre in the front, and getting a spool for the rear. Would there be any disadvantage with a low pinion ...

WTs have the metal flares, and the spring mounts are out-boarded from the chassis a little.
NTs have a rubber flare and the spring mounts are inline with the chassis rails

If the car is going to be a daily driver, and be used in the bush occasionally don't go crazy with mods. When you do get one drive it stock for awhile. See where you can go, then mod it to get you further. Coilys are more comfortable as a dd. The only difference between them and the leafys is you ...

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 ...

Hmm, sort of, but if you think that cutting a chassis in 1/2 and welding a new bit on is less of a problem than moving a couple of brackets, I'm concerned. The NT and WT chassis are basically the same, however, the WT chassis has more bracing around the front body mount/spring hanger area, so ...

Is there any difference in chassis width between a nt and wt? I need to convert the front of my nt ute chassis to wt to fit my lux front diff. I had the idea of cutting of the front section of a wt chassis and sticking it on my nt ute chassis. I do have a sky conversion kit to move the spring perchs ...

i need to replace the ring and pinion gears for my hilux / bundy diffs which are going under a sierra, they are currently a 4.33 ratio. I have seen the 5.29.1 gears on locktup http://locktup4x4.com.au/hilux-solid-front-78/differential-103/nitro-gear-611.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return ...

what tyre size are you planning on running?
for 35s+ the hilux power steering box would be way better

there are some calculators that can tell you what the final crawl will be
just enter in your tyre size, diff and transfer ratios here.

if it is just a trailer car may as well go the 5.29 centers

if you are going to the effort of an engine swap go for EFI.

here is a pic of my 86 1L tray back

Some guy on here had a rotor powered sierra. this guy is building one http://www.auszookers.com/index.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=10709&start=0 as for the 4age/ze in a lwb, i put one in my ute. i have had to make a gear box mount and modify the whole crossmemeber to get the gear box to sit ...

you could cut your guards or fit coil spacers for a little extra clearance.

i have also heard of a couple people making a strut extension and then getting custom springs and longer shocks to suit

i have a lockrite in the rear diff of my coily. you can't fit a locker to the front diff

t50? i think the g box is called out of sprinters and celicas. is a 5 speed box to bolt upto the 4age. not sure but you could probably also get a custom bellhousing to suit your current gbox. there are two types of gearboxs for the 4age the t50 which has a hydralic clutch and another one which uses ...

x2

i tried a few times last year

Call Rod at One stop suzi shop in nerang He has a LWB Zuk with Hilux Front and Bundy rear and a turbo 1.6/gti head and as far as I know its engineered in QLD!!! Ive seen paperwork to prove it! X2 would that car be yellow? i think i saw it for sale on ebay ages ago had 31s for on road. i am building ...

no point as you are in QLD and it wont be legal you sayyou don't have a lotof money to do it yet you'll need to do custom suspension to get it to work as the diffs aren't the reason you'll be able to run 33s. The coily has a crap suspension design that is limited in wheel travel and lift it can ...

If you designed a tri 4 link rear for a 35" tire what would the effects be if you ran a 31" for on road? Anything noticeable in the way it would handle?

if you have a daily to drive then doing the swap would be ok. if not fix what you have and drive it

yer i would say . the spoa but i just dont see it working unles i do a virtaul lift on the front, ill see wat happens when the time comes. You cut the entire back of the cab off!! What the FCUK is stopping you from doing a virtual lift??? Surely that is easier than SPOA?? :D dont be shy with the ...

I was a little worried about a really awkward moment like that so i was quick. It is not the first time i have been under a randoms car with a tape either

i found a holden jackaroo parked on the road next to my zook and measured the lower arms, they are 870-875mm. I dont know what the uppers measure to, the road was way to hot to lie on

i was at ipswich spares about 2 or 3 weeks ago and they had a coily there with both diffs still in it. youll need your own tools and a jack to go shopping there ;) ph 3201 7181. Dont stick jimny diffs in a coily, they are narrower and would be a huge effort for no real gain. if you are really keen ...
