Outer Limits 4x4 Board

okay, my battery went flat listening to the radio while installing my new tow bar. tried jump starting it but would only crank over but not start. from looking at it all day i worked out the fuel pump is working, it doesn't have spark and not sure if the injectors are firing. anyone have any ideas, ...

thanks for your reply, did that about 8 weeks ago, so i know it's not blocked. it's been great since until 2 days ago as described about.

after a 3hr trip on the highway with a matress on the roof lol my vitara was sitting on halfway to 3/4, normally wont g over 1/3 ever. almost hit the red on a few big hills but thought okay due to the matress. turns out it lost about 1 litre of coolant out of the radiator but the overflow was full s...

not sure about the diff brackets as they had to be modified to suit the j20a wide track vitara. cool, so even with 2in diff drop brakets and 3in spacer makes it about an extra 1in drop plus the ome struts of 40mm means that it can handle 65 maybe 70mm of extra droop with no problems. wardy, i think...

wardy, do you have longer struts as well as the strut mount flip?

i'm running the 3" calmini kit on 31's & i'm "yet" to have a problem...... so you have strut spacers - how big are they you have diff drop brakets, 1 or 2 inch. if you have 40mm strut spacer and 40mm diff drop brakets - sort of cancels each other out. even tho you have 3in of lif...

just wondering how much droop you can get without breaking stuff for real, looking at 40mm strut spacer and strut mount flip, is this gonna be right or what. i'm asking it ths way as i'm expecting ppl to say 2in lift is max but with stock struts it don't matter as in the struts top out. how much ext...

yeah, i've read there the same, other than that there a servacible part, ie, pull apart, regease and put back together and good to go.

gee funny that!.....sort the gearing out......buy a real locker.....or use the fast pedal differently. better still buy a sierra. i don't know the answer but i am not gonna bag you out about your car. buy a real locker, why it does the same as any locker but permanently engaged. if it weren't for t...

I'm looking to get one of these spacers for my vit, I don't have the tools to make one so if anyone knows anywhere to get one. i only have 60mm of lift and commodore shocks so that ball joint is limiting the flex, eventually I'll be getting bigger spacers(currently 40mm springs/20mm spacers). not bu...

all cut and paste lol, take to long to write it all out on each forum lol

235/15's

stock with longer commodore shocks and 30mm spring spacers.

make a 65mm spacer for the rear ball joint get some commo shocks and press in your 12mm crush tube in the bottom because they are 10mm hey, did you make the spacer or get it made, i don't have the tools to make it, what is yours made of. also just use 10mm bolts, i just used the ones from the commo...

this is how i did mine so i thought i share the info, this is in a LWB so the commo shocks work well and not to hard. the rear of mine is set up to flex relly well with no dramas. dobson lifted springs $100 (cost price thru a mate), 20mm spring spacer $50 from bruce, VP commodore gas shocks $13 from...

it's worth doing the cam and crank seals to, do the crank pulleys come off easy though? thinking of doing this myself but thinking of how i could get the crank bolt tight enough again.

depends on a forum like this about $250 no warrenty and usually in unknown condition, evenif u say it's perfect.

from a wreckers between $450-$700

reason being is they give a warrenty and these gearboxes are getting older and more fatigued. also most are inported i'd guess which cost more.
