Outer Limits 4x4 Board

This year was a big challenge for ya Pete and a huge well done to you, your helpers and volunteers. Getting in was a breeze and good start to the weekend. With a task this large i can only think of a few issues that is a little hard to police. Toilets, some people need to think about others and ...

Thanks Steve. As long as it bolts up, i could swap flanges if not the same

Who here knows if the front diff centre of my 89 mod 60 series will fit in the rear of my 90 mod 80 series

I had already upgraded to 12 mm bolts so, see how we go.

Thanks mate.

Can i mount a Warn 9000LB winch with the mounting face, face down mounted on the horizontal with the bolts coming up from underneath or does it have to be mounted the normal way with the mounting face vertical.

I will stand clear while someone throws the knives but, i think it looks like those welds were done by a Pulse Mig. Would explain the machine like consistency. Sexy either way.

Gee that 60 of yours BULLET looks neat. I will do a shakle reversal. Read alot of pro's and cons but in the end its not a daily so i figured it cant hurt. Its just a shame there is more drinking and looking than there is fabricating going on, Dam Carlton Dry.

Good effort Mat. Do many that compete with a leaf sprung vehicle (other than a lux) run a shakle reversal.

Thats another reason for using the 60. IT'S NOT A FREAKEN NISSAN !!!!!!!! They may be good but christ. Any way, i will start Saturday morning and will take some picks and start a build up. Back soon.

It will get it regoed, its just not at the moment as i have other cars i have been playing with.
Thanks Ludacris

At this stage i can not ride motorbikes for fun because of work reasons, so i am looking at another sport for a while and I am after some advice on my thoughts to make a comp car out of my 60 ute i have. Currently it is sprung over with 2 inch body lift and 37's. I would like to attempt a few comps ...

This may be a little long but i need some help....I have a 1990 mod 80 series GXL with 4 inch lovels springs with 30mm spacers and running on 35's. I seem to have the same problem as every one else as in, (vibration with the front shaft) but only above 80 kmh. I had a new shaft made up and fitted ...

Thanks heaps guys. Done some reading but all it has done is confuse me somewhat. might not be what i realy need

I would like to convert my 60 ute to 4 link rear and would like to know if someone could point me in some direction as to what angles, what lengths, what to make the arms out of and what to use as ends for the links. I am thinking of using 80 series arms for the front

what would happen if you just bolt the hubs on.

V6 Conversions at Mudgee do a good kit. About $2600 from memory

[quote="carts"]Its fairly normal.....2h's are reknown for it.

Its because off all that grunt they have so they can pull that skin off the rice pudding

Yes mines the same

OH you said 12HT

I had a 3f in my 80 it had done aprox 300,000 km and just starting to blow a little bit of smoke, they are a good motor but lack in power. You will find your self in low range a lot when in the bush, that is why I put a 350 chev in mine.

Same here, mine is the carby 3f and can honestly say that i ...

I had them on the 80 and they were great. 75000kms. Dad had them on his 100 series and only got 15000kms. Go figger

Gone the buggy. 60 rears up front with 2 inch longer shackles. NICE

It seems to flex allright. Im trying a few different spring set ups and its looking good. With the front working fully and the rear only compressing half way, was able to lift the front wheel 44 gallon drum hight.
Not sure what to do to the rear 4 Link or buggy leaf. Any thoughts

True

Alot of people told me not to cut the 60 up. All the more reason to do it. Plus i have it and it cost me nothing, and its tidy

I have a 85 Mk tray back with a 3.3d, 5 speed and in pretty good nick, but i dont know what to d o with it. Its just sitting there.
I was thinking rebuild, Turbo, 50 mm body lift, lift kit, trim the gaurds and run 36 simex and use it as a winch challenge type alrounder.

Just thinking :?

And this ...

Tuff 60 , this looks like it is your members thread :lol:
just a few questions , what sort of leaf pack are you running reasonably flat or not ,
also ive got 37's not 38's but soon :cool:
under my 60 and they tuck in nice after the fork lift treatment , but i am wondering have you trimmed your ...

I did put this in the wanted section but got no reply. I was wondering if some one would want to swap there standard LandCruiser 60 series Deisel fuel tank for my long range tank. It holds about 190l and sits under the rear where the spare and tank is. The only thing is that you need to relocate ...

The springs are what i had reset from Sothern Cross, they are H/D but flatern out. Changing suspension set up but.

Will trim the gaurds about 50mm, tyres come close to inner gaurd but i will see how it goes

I will measure tomorrow but im about 6'-6' 1" depending on which service station or bank im ...

Mine the shit in the shed, moving house and storage shed
I will do a proper members thread when finnished, this will give you an idea of what im doing.
And maybe even get it in for Tuff Truck

Why because i thought it looked a bit dicky, and now it looks in porportion

These photos are with the body nearly finnished and the 38's on
Will be a bit wider once i cut the rims and reweld 50 mm further in
