Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Im needing a set of tyres for my patrol and im wondering where is the best, actually the cheapest place to get some? (easier to justify to the mrs!) Im thinking either Goodyear wranglers, BFG KM2's or a set of Mickey T's in 315/75/16's (are they to big for a standard steel GU rim?) Where do you guys ...

yeah they didnt actually say they sold those ones as such but it said they sell gauges so they probably could get them or something... i reckon there a good idea though! is that what you were chasing?

Is it just a gauge your after that monitors both batteries?

theres a mob on ebay i was looking at that sell gauge pods for Gu's and they have a gauge with both batteries in a bar line form, looks trick

I think its funny that "bogged" never has any constructive advice... never once have I seen him actually 'help' someone... Bogged has helped more people than you've had post numbers newbie. Not a newbie champ, my old Nickname ive been on here since 2002 just like you... and im sure other people ...

You have to laugh at it or you will be sh1ting bricks. lol. Never the less. Doing the mods that Chaz and the guys are doing to reduce the likelihood of the 3l blowing. If mine does, then its actually a good thing cause the missus will then allow me to put in something that's got balls. :armsup: For ...

Well until the pistons do crack she'll be crackin!!


What about bigger turbo and water to air intercooler? any good on a 3ltr?

Whats the Dawes valve do and where does it go?

Hey, just wondering what I can do to get my GU goin a bit better, nothing extreme cause its the mrs shopping trolley ...

thanks, Tim

Ahhh yeah excellent, thanks for the advice, very much appreciated!!
ill give it a go tomorrow... thanks again

Yeah cool, thanks for that!!

I got onto one place in Airport west that do them for $40 a wheel which doesnt sound to bad

Hey, im looking at getting my alloy rims on my patrol polished and im looking for someone in melbourne or around vic to do it, anyone know of anyone who can do it? thanks!

no worries, thanks for your help!! as much as i tell the mrs to not run it low she never listens!!

woops, did new topic intead of reply!! delete...

No worries people, thanks for your help, the book isnt in the console... I knew they took a bit but now ill only have to make one trip to get the oil and stuff!! thanks!

Hey we just brought a frontera and the wife is wondering if they have a low fuel level light or not? thanks, Tim

just wondering how much oil I need to buy to do a engine service on my 4.2 petrol TB42? thanks!

Yeah I might give Cheezy or blackburn nissan a go... thanks!
My welding skills are average so im better off just trying to find a cheap bar under $1000

Im wanting a winch bar for my patrol but am having trouble chasing up a second hand one and dont want to pay $1100 for a new one.... Is the any other model , such as 80 series or something?? You can get heaps of second hand ones of them but now many patrol ones!

thanks! Tim

If I had a hoist I would do it myself for sure!! but i dont

I got a quote today off the shop I usually get all my stuff done by and they said about $350!! Its gonna be money well spent I reckon!!!

Ive decided ill give my clutch in my TB42 91 patrol myself!!

do you have to pull the seats and stuff out to get the plate off from around the gear shifters and stuff? anyone have and other tips that might make life easier? im not keen on pulling the motor out with the gearbox though!!

thanks!

Yeah thanks for the help guys, I sorta figured that it would be a prick to do and even though im an auto elec and doing trade upgrade to diesel mech n have some mechanical talent I know when its a good idea to hand ball something!! ill just pay someone I think!!

My patrol needs a new clutch, i think its just the thrust bearing or throwout bearing in it, should I pay a shop to do it or do it myself? anytime I think ill just do it myself I always regret it!!

Are they very hard to fit? like could I do it myself?

Im looking at getting a rear diff lock for my patrol, what do people recommend where do I get one and roughly how much are they?

thanks!
