Outer Limits 4x4 Board

hi mate my 99 gu td42t had a very similar starting issue. would always take alot of cranks to fire hot or cold. Checked everyhing you have mentioned with no luck. Finally checked pump timing and that turned out to be the problem. pump was too retard (.5 on the dial indicater) Set the pump timing to ...

how bout sourcing some h/t M12 'fine' booker bar and making your own bolts (studs) up? It would probably be cheaper than $60, and you could cut it into what ever lengths you need I did get a price on some all thread bar, it was a meter length and about $90. might find it cheaper some where but i di...

okay cheers mate, thanks for the info.

I use a Snap on electric one and its great. Its a couple of years old now but still going strong, rarely a nut it wont undo. Bit pricey though.

The right bolts for front of GU are $60 posted australia wide Is $60 dollars for all the bolts or just the front 2. If only the front 2 i still need the other 2 bolts for the center mounts (its cab chassis) which i couldn't get either. The back ones have no captive nut. or will the front ones maybe...

cheers for the replies.
ash, i had thought about drilling the nuts out and using a standard bolt, i just wasn't sure whether people were doing it this way or not.
thanks

So i need to get bolts for a 50mm body lift and the gu has captive nuts and they are fine thread 1.25 pitch 12mm, so i was trying to find bolts to suit. I rang around all the local bolt shops and no one has anything long enough (190mm for the front) in the right pitch. Does any one know where i migh...

I had a starter problem with my gq td42, took me a long time to figure out. it was real sluggish like yours to start, but when i tested the starter off the car it worked fine. Then i put a new starter on it and problem was fixed.
So it could be your starter.

the other one is for the glow plugs. tells the unit whether to come on and for how long.

hi
does anyone know if a gq TD42 transfer case is the same as a 1999-2000 gu dx coil cab TD42 turbo. Did a fair bit of searching but couldnn't find any specific info saying if they are the same or not.

thanks for all the replies. rang the RTA and confirmed and it does need an engineer cert.

I have a mate who is looking at a gq patrol to buy and it has an aftermarket turbo and when he asked if it was engineered he was told that when you turbo a diesel in NSW it doesnt need to be engineered. Does anyone know if this is true or not. I would have thought it needs to be engineered. Thanks A...

those plans are good but isnt the bolt pattern for the cross member around the wrong way. the smaller distance between the bolts should be towards the back of the box.

i have one of the tough dog adjustable ones, pretty happy with it. running 37s too. only had it about 2 months but so long term im not sure how they hold up

Thanks for the drawing, much appreciated. I think that would be cheaper than guard trimming. More Q's though sorry - why two different sizes of spacer? does anyone have a photo of these in place? its hard to explain but the big one spaces the arm forward and the smaller one stops the nut from being...

Does any 4wd places have them?
With my set up I have no probs with 35's just a little bit close when turning on front guards.

i know superior and marks adapters have them for sale but i just got a mate to make mine.

I've got 4 inch, no body lift and run 37's. With a bit more guard trimming I could definitely run 39's as bogged said. You will wheel much better with the reduction transfer gears with whatever tyres you choose, so do the gearing and then get the 37's, you will not regret it. :twisted: so how much ...

its a lwb wagon. was pretty sure i would get 35s but was thinkin bout 37s.

i have gq patrol and have 4 inch suspension, no body lift. what size tyres would i be able to fit, was thinking about trimming the guards but didnt know weather it was gonna get me much more clearance for the tyres.
