Outer Limits 4x4 Board

True no damage... Just thought someone would have some ideas... Thanks

I'm having trouble my 33's rubbing, rear only, with a 4 inch lift. Looking for a remedy now, but 35's fitted easy... I can only suggest what I got suggested and do the offset rims, but you still may have trouble wit rubbing.

G'day, Just thought I'd ask some alternatives... Got a 4 inch lift with 33's, found I'm getting major scrubbing on the inside of the left and right rear wheel arches.
Mates said only way to avoid that is a bigger offset rim or a (crappy - not a fan) body lift.
Anyone got any other ideas?

just thought I'd chime in... my squealed for a little while, then it went away... I did change the oil though... but wouldn't worry about it... when it blows up, panic other than that keep it krankin'... and I'm serious, i can never find problems... I let them fix themselves, with minor servicing ...

I got a 3 litre, did the same thing, till after a service, was getting only 750km a tank over the nullabor when I usually got 850, 900... on the way back for the third time I did a service and got all good stuff... economy went back up, only 50km a tank but a huge difference when your paying a ...

Anyway to do it your self or do you need specified tools?

Yeah... its not good for it
especially if you are in 4wd it'll wind up the transfer
If its out of 4wd then you just chew more fuel... at least I think I've never done it...
Why do you ask?

How common is it to shear axle studs in a HJ60 and is there anyway to prevent it happening again? I sheared the studs and two dowels the other day doing simple driving... Can you get stronger studs or anything along those lines?

Thanks
I don't get on much

I'm doing a body lift for my 60
Just wondering wether every bolt can be assumed the same and extended 2 inches
Or if I would have to measure every one...
Any replies would be good...
Thanks

I'm in for twenty if ya get there
Even if you do drive a sierra
I'm only doin' cause your a brickie

I've heard that it is a common problem - the 5th gear gets worn because it was an add on to the original box
If not fixed it has a tendency to actually fall out and float around the box
Thats heresay though

Im doing a shackle, body and suspension lift - all 2 inches
That'll get me running 35's
If thats not your cup of tea go spring over
That'll get you 4 inches straight up - but apparently you have to change your steering set up
That'll shackles, body and suspension all up
That'll cost me around ...

I'm with them - if your happy with the 4runner then keep it
Its much of a muchness either way
But as the guys said - 4runner would be more comfortable
And if you don't want to do anything "Tuff"
Why SAS it? Independant is heaps nicer on the road - 'Specially if thats the most driving time

I'll answer - depends what you want
Get up and go or low down torque
I'm a diesal man
But decide that and your sweet
Either's good for offroad work - Just diesal's won't die on ya
got 420000kms on my clock and the old 2H is still goin'
I doubt a petty would

Just to get off the track
Daryl the low oil pressure happens - It should stall if you are on an angle or even flat - If its cold - The engines have a long stroke so the oil drains to the bottom of the tank once the oil's warm though it should run like a dream (apparently its a typical 60 problem ...

I got rust in my door pillars
I just brushed it with a wire brush till it was right back
Bogged 'er up and painted it with touch up paint
Haven't had any problems since
albeit I haven't looked
Parents had a 60 though
and you could of pushed the roof from the inside and it would of fallen off ...

You just gotta go light mate
Anything over 2 tonne is to heavy for the sand your goin' in
I've lived over there
The four runners all right - 'specially with a turbo
They're also heaps easy to do up
And I will admit - mabey I can't drive on the sand

Great weekend
Whats with the pic. of me droppin' the esky????
It ain't that great
The Buggy's were awesome - Good on ya Ruff
Great win
Thanks to all the organisers
Whens the next one?

Where are you putting the bodylift pics - It wouldn't be that different for 60 would it?
Why get the "proper" stuff?
Go and buy some high tensile bolts
Go to your local industrial plastic shop - buy some blocks, theres a special type Its in my post... albeit written by someone else
Thats it ...

Sand Driving - Well my 60 sucked at it... Couldn't be the driver
Nah I was up to my chassis first 200 meters onto the beach
took us about 2 hours to dig me out
For a sand car - go a soft roader...
A Subaru outback has actually pulled me out of a sand hole!!!!!
Fuel economy ain't too bad - I ...

Thanks fellows
2inch body and 2inch shackle it is
As for the Wato's we want to try Slippery at least - I've got up there... Standard
But I won't if I can't get a bigger car than a zook
I'd also like to look at rope road, rock at the end s'posed to be a doozy but hey 60's go anywhere
Alright ...

I think its around 2.5 tonne - Thats whats written for the brake test wieght on my Pink slip
So I'd say that'd be almost overkill
Close enough though
And definantly - get the 60
Especially if your going to flog it
HJ60 - You can't kill 'em

That ain't real nice!!!!!
yeah I might but I don't know any "60 Nuts" as you say!
Ummm.... Watos sunday round 7ish? Let me know
I'll even get on
Does anyone know about the blocks? I'm was goin' tommorrow
and whats advised for body lift?
Its standard - but I'm gunna fit 33's, 35's if possible ...

Who's High and Mighty?
and does anyone know how many blocks I would need?

Thanks mate
Your rigs runnin' yet?
We may be goin' for a wato's run on Sunday morn.
We'll let ya know through Anthony
Also what type of blocks and average length for 'xtended shackles

You took the first step right - Yoda's!!!!
If ya wanna know what type of stuff to do to whatever you get - I recomend the 60 series... sorry mate I'm biased
But ask Lay80n - he knows about that stuff
He ain't in toyota but hes pretty cluey
Just PM him
And don't tell him I sent ya

Hey I think I've asked this several times
but......
Shackles are find with mild steel??
and how big is recommended? 2 inch, 3 inch, hell 8 inch
Just need an average
As for the body lift... (if ya see this Old Yella you told me that I could get spacers from Clarke Rubber - What type? I went in ...

80 series - s'pose its better than the zook you were looking at
I'd go the 60 though, they're cheap and ya can't kill the 2H

I'll send mine soon probably tommorow
Thanks for the PM
Stephen let me know after he sent his and Layto hasn't got around to tellin' me yet
