Outer Limits 4x4 Board

My 2010 GXL 79 has a Torqit chip with a 3"straight thru beaudesert zorst, ram head on snorkel, standard air filter and box, 305/70/16 tyres and chews around 15/100 empty driving highway to work through a few towns and etc. Load it up and it chews around 20/100 on trips away like highway driving up ...

Bigger shocks and bump stops is the best option for travel mate.

No different than a sedan, but they have to be strapped into the laft side of the 3/4 seat in a cruiser. Which means the mrs will be in the centre.

Ah well its all good, engineering is cheaper than setting up a dual cab for touring aswell as having my ute.

Thats tops now I know they fit I will look into sourcing one.

I want to swap my bucket seat out to a dicky seat in my 2010 GXL ute so I can fit Myself, the girl and the 4yr old in the ute on trips away.

Will it fit?

Anyone have one laying around?

Get your tappets adjusted.

Cheers guys, top reading!! Got a bit of homework to do now....

Thats the thing, they have been good for the last 4 years. Thats why im prepared to give one a go. Im sick of having old gear. If they did bring out a 6cyl diesel again and i really wanted it, id just sell it and upgrade, no big deal. Im not really sure how many km i do per year maybe 50k? Id have ...

If your getting a chip get a chip that controls your injection timing and duration. There are a fair few chips which just control fuel rail pressure and this puts added strain on your fuel system pump, injectors,seals etc. The chips that control the injectors themselves leave the fuel pressure at ...

So now in the for sale section you will see my GQ CoilCab for sale... I've chosen wednesday to head to the dealership and sign the paperwork to give a brand new GU CoilCab a whirl, they look good and im certain the new 3.0 turbo engine has had most of the bugs sorted out, right? When i sell the old ...

Actually i completely forgot about Ryano!! Mate I paid for them yesty through St George Tyres Online.
Alot cheaper than any of my local dealers.

Wozza244 I doubt anyone that anyone over here has worn set out yet as they only come out at the start of this year. [/quote] Fair enough, its just that KM2's are gonna be $1345 ready to fit to rims, and im gonna get about the 70k i have got from the last ones, and the Claws are gonna be $1580 ready ...

I have clocked up close to 70k on my 285/75/16 KM2's now, and looking at replacing them with the TTC Claws in 33x12.5x15 as i have new rims. What sort of km are you guys getting out of them? I hope someone can enlighten me pretty soon as i will be ordering them in the next couple of days.

You would notice that pulling one way on the road if it was the case. Measure to the chassis, not the guard, its just a variation.

Check your body mounts maybe?

Close enough to 530mm i have the dobinsons lift with caster plates. About 12months old.

Update - 285/75/16 KM2's have just hit 60k and still have 8mm of tread left. GQ turbo coilcab ute. As stated in an earlier post, yes they have copped a flogging. Did the High Country with them last month, never had to reverse on any hill, they just climbed everything, and it was either wet or ...

Tempe Tyres, $350 for 305/70/16 and delivery is cheap. 33x12.5 are same price im certain.

Very good service Tazz!!

Its been good since the big alloy rad but still gets up to 100 on a hill loaded. I think it might be a case of adjusting my driving style to suit.

Tell that bloke at ARB to stop playing with himself and give you some real advice instead of trying to better his sales record. My GQ has done 310k with no diff change ever, and its still tight as. Awesome engineering in the Nissan diffs. Front locker for now and when time $$ permit, pull the rear ...

I think the problem there could be "chinese radiator" not that it's alloy. My dad was having the typical TD42 warmth problems in his GU wagon - particually when towing. 18 months ago we dropped a PWR alloy radiator in as he was just about to head of travelling. They have one done 50,000ks since ...

Well, 5 months down the track and the big fancy 3 core chinese aluminium radiator from ebay has started to leak, im going to throw some stop leak in it and see how i go, but im going to get a custom copper one built i think. Terrain tamer has one and its alumimium too, for $941 which i thought was a ...

With the valve shut, i can run my lockers without charging the whole tank. Nice, i quickly brainstormed that the other day while driving, was wondering how to get around filling the whole tank!! I might try an electric solenoid instead of running air lines to a tap. Although it wouldnt be all that ...

If you have a sub tank sitting at the same level as your main, you will need a transfer pump. And also make sure your breather works.
My sub tank sits above my main, so i have it gravity feeding into the main via T piece into the filler neck return.

Plumb the line from compressor into air tank, with a pressure cut off switch somewhere in the tank or line, probably run the compressor from under your seat or behind it. Run line to the air horns with an electric solenoid in between the tank and horns with a push button activation switch in your ...

Time for a fuel cell mate.

Last time i checked i think the original lead dropped 0.1v from the ciggy lighter plug to the fridge connection. All my power outlets have 4 or 5mm wiring im certain, i just hooked another one up today with 6mm to it. My power box that goes in my canopy has an anderson plug connection going down to ...

Any thoughts on how often you would have to run the car to provide the extra "top up" you might sometimes need? I realise it depends on the weather but what would a sort of average case be - to kick in a few hours' worth of fridge-running power plus recover the power it took to start the motor etc ...

Akubra Cattleman. I run it during summer cause its cooler to wear than my black Bronco model.
Cheapest i could find is ebay, my local saddlery wanted about $30 more than ebay!
