under 2.5 wide
under 12m long

hey guys looking at buying a late 4.8 patrol auto and getting a ute conversion done. my question is. I need a vehicle to tow between 2 and 3 tonnes several times weekly and my colorado td is strugging. I'd get a 4.5 td 79 series but need twin cab so thats out and no auto in those. are there any ...

hi guys
a couple of questions about creepys
Ive heard they measure under size, could someone that has a set of 15X35's give me a measurement (excluding the crowned center)
and how do you find them in real mud (vic slop)
I can see them being great on all terrains except maybe mud
cheers

bighorns with out a doubt.

I'm going through the same process as well jas, there is nothing worth putting on under 12" wide.
we need sticky treps at 35x 10.5 but alas not to be.

I'm fairly certain that for a car to be sold in the US , the manufacturer must warrant a cat converter effective for 100,000 miles .
Dpf is probably similar

dave for a mechanic you really dont know shit. the car is running so its obiously not 180 out timing wise. with all your bullshit posts its no wonder they kicked you out of auszookers start with the basics fresh fuel fuel filter check or replace leads and plugs check cap is not cracked no vacuum ...

an ms260c is one of stihls pro series saws and has their long hour engines, they are a great saw ,light and powerfull for their size but expensive and probably hard to justify for a 4wd saw. ms 290 farm boss is probably a better option they are similar power, a little larger but a little bit heavier ...

tritons nice to drive but shit tray size
I like the idea of the 3.0 as opposed to a more highly stressed 2.5
jmo
Ive driven them all but I bought the colorado
enjoy your new car whatever you get

I regularly tow a 3 tonne (atleast) cherry picker and trailer combo. I had a courier/ranger manual and it was ok once moving but it was pretty easy to fry the clutch on a small hill start. now I have an auto colorado and it two handles that weight ok but whatever you use in that range, trust me you ...

so Jim hows that nice big outers discount going on a 4x4 silverado?

Im using nulon heavy duty diesel oil in all my work vehicles at the moment and it seems to be a good all rounder. these include- colorado td 09 newish 2.8 hilux na 95 420,000km td courier 05 150,000km canter 89 380,000 dyna 83 2h high 300 km and 8 rough terrain cherry pickers all around 10-15,000hrs ...

alien dont take this the wrong way ;) but IT sounds a little like the looks of the tyre has a lot to do with your choice not just the size and performance? If you want a do it all tyre it really sounds like you want a mainstream muddy ie km2 bighorn mtr they're all good in the mud but not excellent ...

I used to run 32 10.5 15 radials at 5psi un beadlocked and never lost one on my zook.
I dont think I'd go any lower than that without beadlocks of some sort however.

dw bout em crosso, jus add sum right foot! we made the shackles so cant b them! at least everyone agrees that ur gettin fed BS! now u cn tell em maybe I'm getting old, but why the fark can't you spend another 30 seconds typing this in plain english so we can all understand what you are saying you ...

I recently bought a new colorado 3.0 td after driving all the twin cab utes available. the reason I bought the colorado- *the new hilux and d40 navara were the nicest CARS to drive. *the d22 is by far the cheapest to buy new *and the bt50 and ranger are good value for money with great torque all ...

Yep i think they are crap in the smaller sizes
the bighorns or km2's kill them in 31's or under.
the tead is too closed and they clog badly in the clay, they are a great road going muddy however.

these two are also total opposites
the swamper is a bais ply and the trep is radial in that size.

imo you cant even compare the two for performance in that size as the treps are almost a road tyre in the smaller radials

Check your glow circuit, do they ever turn off? Maybe the timer is knackered and running them all the time. How would I do that ? I turn the key and the glow light comes on then as it turns off there is a click. EGT's could be high but it don't get hot at all even when towing. put a multi meter on ...

I had exactly the same problem on a 2.8 3l motor they lasted less than 8 mths. couldnt start the car, so we pulled the glows after checking they had power etc. all the ends were totally blow/melted off. I couldnt find a brand on them but a mechanic I USED to use installed them for me. I have ...

You don't specifically need a smaller business, just a business that manufactures their own springs, ie not just a distributor of 4wd gear. Then yeah, you can specify exactly what length ect you require. I'm not sure what that would be in Melbourne, but there would probably be heaps of them. spicer ...

what brand are these springs?

there is not much in the way of electrial bits that would cause your diesel cruiser to cut out on a hill.
I'd be checking your pump and tank pickup.

[quote="grimbo"]What vehicle? What size? What amount of bitumen driving bs offroad? What budget? What do you consider long lasting? I've had great success with Firestone SATs, grimbo why confuse the poor bloke with a tyre that has been unavailable for a least 5-7 years?? I'd go bighorns for a great ...

i love them they are awesome the rear is setup fully with shock bar and shocks. the front still needs the hoops and shocks but flexes pretty good. puts a 35' tyre below the sills My ruf spua puts a 34 tyre below the sill front or rear without drop shackles so they are definately not required for ...

sierras suck as a tourer id say jimny for a daily/tourer 3 hours in a sierra and ul never want to drive it again :lol: tell that to my brother who drove from Melb to Cape York in a Sierra quite comfortably or a friend of mine who drove around Australia in her Sierra. and how much did their arse and ...

a bees dick over 30 and 3/4 inches at 25,000 km

I paid a wheel works to weld my beadlocks on, they all leaked to some degee. a smear of urathane on the face fixed all the problems and they have been good since
paid $30 each to weld
