Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Let me know what you find - a lot of the ATV tyres are too wide for the rims or too much $ (and not sure they would handle the weight). My best option so far is small bobcat tyres - Bearcat in Sydney was the best price by far when I was looking.

Cheers

Hi Gary,

If you get a set of 13" Alfa / fiat rims, then there is an ebay seller usually advertising a set of 4 retread 175 70R13 mud tyres - looks like it might be the old Toyo mud and snow pattern????

I have never found anything road legal mud type in 12" in Australia. On the Haflinger forum you ...

The instructions that came with mine said to use grease to help seal the thread if needed.

GoJeeps write ups are pretty comprehensive for both D35 and D44

A couple of ACT registered TJs have increased towing limits. Required an engineers certificate and then inspection by the local RTA. I believe the engineer wanted an extra or re-enforced mounting point. These TJs were done to tow camper trailers so not sure how much increase they were after but they ...

Or just give us the diesel unlimited rubicon they sell elsewhere...

Yeah the exhaust should come down the passenger side, warp forward around the sump - not under, and the back down the drivers side next to the gearbox. There are some aftermarket extractors which go under the sump rather than around it. Is that what you mean? They are sort not to buy!

3.07 is stock ...

1- where do recovery points on a heep get attached?
it got some crappy loop ontop off the chassis and no other holes to mount to.

Stock bumpers? On the front from memory you should see two bolts through the bumper into the chassis rails - they are probably torx heads. You can put standard recovery ...

Has any one got any reference pics of the air box and hole in the guard? And did you seal the air box and plate the stock intake hole at the front?

Have you looked at how the ARB one fits? I can take photos of mine of you want but basically enters quite low on the drivers side so it comes through ...

Update - not a very exciting video but it runs under its own power. I still have a binding brake issue to look at and needs a tune up but feels like making some progress.....and it has seats now!

So here's the ADR that appears to apply to everything other than passenger cars (MA) and motorbikes (L group)

15.2.5. Notwithstanding the requirements specified above the wheel guard including a mudflap (if fitted) need not be less than 230 mm from the ground for other than off-road vehicles, or ...

30cm for me too when I got my engineers cert in the ACT

I bought a cheap ebay one that was already WinCE unlocked. Changed one of the two street nav programs on it over to OziExplorer CE.

That one has been on ebay too. 1 bid at $9k and didn't make reserve.

There were two other imported ones on ebay recently...I know one was listed at $7k (under reserve) but no bids. I don't know if the other sold. They both were LHD imports - looked straight out of army service somewhere. Very ...

The TJs are essentially the same from 97 through to 2007.

The engine had a slightly different head and coil pack from 2000 on - otherwise it pretty much the same 4.0 straight 6 that has been around for ever.

The gearbox is the main change...you can google for the changes. Some people say the AX15 ...

As suggested, I'd install a front swaybar disconnect system - a few to choose from or people have made their own by converting the bottom bolts to something with a split pin etc.

If your current shocks are limiting your down travel too much then make sure any replacements have the desired open and ...

Try David Wale of Black Mamba Racing Components 03 97935555. I know he recently rebuilt a Haf engine for an owner in Sydney.

If you join the yahoo group for haflinger owners, http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Haflinger/ There is a database of some interchangeable parts.

The complete part ...

I used him 5 years ago for my jeep. Easy to deal with. Most of the engineered jeeps in the ACT Jeep club have used him including up rating towbar limits for towing campers etc. I guess all of our jeeps are bolt on mods (suspension, wheels etc) not custom fab.

In the ACT, he follows NCOP as you ...

If Buddha is still on here or you can find a picture of his old XJ then as I recall he trimmed his guards but used TJ flares.

edit : Actually both his and a picture of JimmyB's are on the first page of members pics thread in the XJ section of ausjeepoffroad

Never heard that. I have a 2000 TJ. Owners manual says

10W-30 (preferred) for -18deg C to 38 deg plus
5W-30 for temps below -29dec to max 38 deg

Obviously Canberra doesn't get THAT cold I've always used 10W-30

I ran 33x10.5 BFG ATs for years on my TJ and only just recently put 33x12.5 MTRs on.

One point which may or may not matter to you is the weight.

On my old bathroom scales (which are probably out), a 33x10.5 BFG AT on an American Racing 15x7 alloy rim weighed about 26kgs from memory.
A 33x12.5 ...

I asked them. They are "Mud Trac".

RE one as well. But there are a number of "good ones" AA, Tom Woods, etc. Really the choice is between a replacement shaft SYE (good) or one where you cut and tap the existing shaft (less good).

Matsmad, contact Wooders directly or any of the others. "Special order" stuff probably won't be on any Aussie website. cheers Matt

G'day if you type "jeep wrangler tj molded carpet" into google you get hits from the usual suspects... JC Whitney, Quadratec, and a bunch of other hits. As you would expect they are all US companies.

I don't know what state you are in and who you have tried but there are Jeep specialists in most ...

Maybe follow up one of these posts.

Champion are the factory ones right? The last set I bought were over the spare parts counter from the dealer (Rolfe in Phillip).... and they weren't crazy expensive.

Oils and stuff I just follow the numbers in the handbook and just buy middle of the range stuff - not home brand, not mobile 1. I don ...
