Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Thats some good news. Thanks for letting us know.

Unfortunately I'm one of the suckers that already paid $219 for my manuals...

Cheers,

Noel

I should have asked did you still go? How was it?

Sorry mate, been living it up in the sunshine of Coral Bay while catching heaps of awesome fish! Just got home today. Another time for sure.

You dont seem to be in the right place. Try the main tech section:

http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/PHP_Modul ... 7e23158388[/url]

as some of you may have seen on the 4WDM forum and the general tech section of this forum, i'm doing a SAS on the Deo with coils all round. should end up with nearly 10" lift with the conversion and 35" tyres.... running on GQ diffs, disc brake rear, 4.88:1 gearing... will post more about it when i ...

I had assumed that this is a fairly common design for a 4 link. What does the usual 4 link look like?

Noel

These are solid reliable vehicles as far as I know. The only thing that I would add is Isuzu petrol motors aversion to gas conversion. See the thread in the FAQ/Tech section...

Sorry I cant be much more help. Good luck!

Noel

Great to hear! Look forward to seeing the pics.

No worries Todd.
Good to see the FAQ section is useful on occasions. Would be cool to see some pics. Send what u have through to me and I can try to put them up if u like. nmacham@optusnet.com.au

Hi Mick. You will most probably need to make something up yourself. Try a search in the general 4x4 tech section for some ideas. Prefilters and attachments should be avaliable from farm/agricultural suppliers.

Cheers,

What about going ahead with a front Lokka lockright first? I reckon its a great option for IFS vehicles such as ours. Probably the best money I've spent on the Jackaroo...

Noel

Gday Pissy. :D

Pretty sure that the ARB is the only locker available for the 12 bolt at this stage although the guys over at Planet Isuzu are currently trying to drum up some support to get rear Lockrights manufactured. You can see the progress here: http://forum.planetisuzoo.com/viewtopic.php?t ...

Good topic Guzzi! :cool:

Personally I have found no reason why Isuzu hasnt been found to be competitive in the market. Every time I have been out 4x4ing with other vehicles mine has been amongst the most capable and I am sure that others can vouch for that . The IFS thing seems to be one of the ...

Mine doesnt seem to have a lot of play. Just emailed you a diagram of the shifter mechanism. Hope it has the detail you are after.

Noel

Sound interesting. Would like to see some pics. Mudtrooper of this forum is planning to turn his Jack into a dual cab also.

Noel

Hi Gazza! Good to hear you've joined the locker club. In short, no to your question. Different diffs... 12 bolt rear vs 10 bolt front.

One question though.... what the photon are those things in your ute.... trying to start up your own nuclear bonb or something??

Cheers

Rainsey

Utemad's extra long range fuel tanks perhaps!

Smallish update: My other spotties crapped themselves so the Jack now wears a set of Lightforce 170's.

Conversion is not a viable option in my opinion. Not worth the time or the effort to go through what I imagine would be quite an involved process overall. Trade it in on a 4x4 version and save the grief.

Noel

Thanks for that mate,
I Never knew an ARB air locker was avalibe for the front... tho im not going to get my hopes up buy the souds of it....

Another question , Would the Lokka system replace my chiped planetry gears?

Yep, replaces the spider gears.

As far as I know it is the same 10 bolt diff. Although as the ARB application guide states:
Some builds between December 1996 and May 1998 used an unidentified 3rd member and carrier with a different ring gear and bolt pattern. A 3rd member with the same ratio may be swapped from earlier or later ...

This is what you need to wind. Look underneath your ute in line with your front door handles. From memory clockwise is up and anticlockwise is down.

Not the same for both bars. Pretty sure that you need ...

The immobiliser was suggested in the early stages but as the engine was actually turning over it was thought that it probably wasnt the immobiliser as it normally cuts out everything when it is functioning. Obviously its a multi-system cutoff immobiliser and only one of the systems was faulty ...

All fixed, turned out to be a faulty immobiliser.

Hi folks.

The poor old Jacks been out of action for a coupla weeks with an electrical problem. Engine cranks but does not fire. Error code 42 is displayed which is to do with the electronic spark timing circuit. Has my local mechanic stumped and is about to get towed to Holden to get looked at ...

Assuming it is the 92 onwards model that you are talking about...

Usually a yota diff as they have 4.56:1 and 4.3:1 ratios to match most Isuzus.

Great pics there fellas! Keep 'em coming!
