Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi Mate, it sounds like your most concerned about the draw on your batteries when your parked up?? IF this is the case then having a second Alternator bolted up under the bonnet wont offer you much of a solution on the 3rd day of parking when the battery system is getting low. Your problem sounds mo...

hi mate, i have just fixed the same problem after fitting some gauges. if you have a GQ you will find that you also dont have dash lights as they are on the rear tail light circuit?? that is how i realised i had a problem. after much deliberation and concern it did turn out to be the tail light fuse...

Hi mate, they could be anything including after market??? Mine were blanked when i got the vehicle and i have my diff lock switches there now. the little scoop thing above is a triple blank and will pop out to shoe another three switch spaces too. Good luck mate. if you press them and you cant see a...

Sorry, had another look at the pic. that is your front diff. it looks like the boss is still in the hose and this should screw into the top of the pumpkin. have a look at the rear diff.

hi mate, you will probably find that that is the diff breather hose??? it should be connected to the top of the pumpkin and you may find that you got the steel tubes mixed up. Both the diffs and the gear box have a breather that goes to the chassis and then to a steel tube to a high point (sorry can...

Hi Mate, this has happened to me also. Bloody savage really.!! When i did my original body lift i used 50mm high by 50mm diameter steel blocks. These worked great for many years of hard core driving. till someone told me one day that the whole back of my Patrol was moving about over bumps. I had a l...

whats the best way to get the large bearing race out? i don't have a bearing puller but am thinking of investing in a kit of sorts. what do i need? It was a bitch mate. if i had the choice i would have taken it somewhere and got them to pop it out for ya. I used a cold chisel and patience!!! Ya got...

yeah, its when the car is on,,, the whine is a little louder when the ac is on. so you can have roof mounted spoties if you can turn them on and off from outside the car?? What motor do you have? You will find that the TD42 has a seperate idler arm pully and teh bearings there are renowned for fail...

I recon you are on a winner mate and am pretty confident but others may know better.

Hey Stefan, nice job mate. looks a treat. very different to look at a left hand drive TD42 under the bonnet.

What kind of battery is that you have?? It is tiny?

if its only leaking a bit of oil just replace the axel seals (inside the diff housing) that will stop the oil leak. if your getting water in the hub then replace the rest of it. good luck with it But to get to the axle seals you need to pull everything else off so you might as well replace it all w...

Hi mate, there is no point installing an IC onto a non Turboed engine.. The idea of the IC is to cool the air that the Turbo is pumping under pressure into the engine. The Turbo functions directly from the Exhaust gas and therefore heats the air that it pumps back into the engine. Without the turbo ...

Suspension Stuff, see him in the vendors section

basically playing bog holes will stuff pretty much anything. If anything is even halfway worn or loose the boghole will stuff it. Maybe think about not playing in bogholes and nearly all your problems will be gone. That is soo funny!! i think exactly the same!! If you look at a bog hole and know th...

www.superiorengineering.com.au What he said!! Superiors will probably warranty their chromoly ones for a "you bend em - we'll replace em" warranty. They certainly have that warranty for their lower trailing arms on the rear and their drag link and tie rods on the front so i cant see why i...

I reckon this should be a sticky at the top

Hi mate, If the car was an ex gov car it is likely to be a warn XD9000. By the looks of that winch you will need to commit to doing a rebuild on it mate. I reckon it probably spent a bit of time underwater and by the rust on the brace rod it is probably salt water. If this is a free bee go for it, p...

where are you guna use the highlift on a GU?? or GQ?? or any other semi modern post 1990 vehicle?? i would go an exhaust jack over a high lift every day of the week mate. I carry an exhaust jack as part o f my standard recovery equipment. Could use the hi-lift with the wheel-lift accessory / bull b...

If you have a 2" body lift as well it should not hit there anyways with 35's

Everyone should click on the link and read the whole thing.

Compulsory reading too ALL here.

Stay safe everyone. no point building it if it kills ya and you dont get to enjoy it.

HI Mate, good luck with your fix. When it is time to do your install remember how big the thing is. I have one of these and was very disappointed at its performance after install. It turned out that the cable i ran was a little undersize. (I ran a big cable) too much voltage drop to the back of the ...

I am in the middle of fitting up a full Frozen Boost kit. TOP TOP QUALITY GEAR! Work of Art.

The Aussie Dollar is great right now and it is a bargain. You can not go wrong. get all your silicon bends there too. CHeap

Dont Hesitate.

Hi Mate, The Pajero is a Bargain and very underrated. If you can get one with the turbo diesel you will be on a winner. Some (if not all) will come standard with a factory centre and rear diff lock and very well appointed in the creature comfort stakes. You cant go wrong with the Pajero. Or............

Yep. sounds like it is sucking air. I have an aftermarket with a glass bowl and water separator. You can see it "drip" air into the system if it is not tight enough. Tight enough can be pretty bloody tight mate. Bleeding can be a bitch, try tightening it first and taking it for a spin if n...

4x4 action did a mega air compressor comparo some time ago. see if you can look it up on there site and the questions will be there for sure.
