Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi, I remember a while back I read somewhere on here (yes i have tried the search function) that you could by a distributor with a pertronix ignition already fitted to it for a TB42S. The cam lobe in my dizzy is worn so I wouldn't mind replacing the whole thing. Anyone know when I can find this, I'v...

yep being a Ti they would be.

Yeah, they'll bolt straight on mate.

The Mudgee and Districts club would like to thank The on all 4's club, Jamie and Julie, James Whalan, Andrew from Opposite Lock Dubbo, The 1st aid crew and the Canobolas Boys. It was a great event and we all had an awesome time. If there's something the Mudgee club can help with next year (eg settin...

My factor locker died at a comp in a big way, It was always slow to disengage. So i swapped the front and rear diff housings to GU, changed the ratios to 4.6's and put ARB lockers front and rear. Haven't looked back the ARB is heaps better goes engages and disengaged straight away. But i went a bit ...

I suggested this to a friend of mine but he never followed through with it :-P

I'm led to believe that the bell housings are the same, BUT the crank in a diesel is 7 bolt and a petrol is 6 bolt so the flex plate wouldn't go straight on, I've heard that you might be able to use a safari flex plate coz they had diesel autos. Good luck with it.

No worries mate, good luck with it mate

yes you can drive a patrol without cv's just pull the cv's out and reassemble it without the cv/axle in there.

Your 80 is constant 4wd so the diff is still being driven, if you drain the oil out, the diff won't have any lubrication while its spinning. Patrols aren't constant so you could get away with draining oil and drving around if you had to, aslong as you didn't engaged 4wd or the hubs. Don't recommend ...

went and test drove one of the easier track for the city vs country comp. Bloody good tracks, Can't wait to see the hard one get driven. check the pics out. http://i602.photobucket.com/albums/tt110/Tomseth1984/GetAttachmentaspx7.jpg http://i602.photobucket.com/albums/tt110/Tomseth1984/GetAttachmenta...

I haven't smashed a hub yet, only running a fresh TB42 with 35's and f/r lockers, not huge power, but if i ever do blow one I'll be getting a set, I've got a fair bit of superior gear and I've always found it to be good stuff.

If ya blowing the alloy part of the hub, superior engineering do a billet hub, which might help. You fit your standard own internals to it. Dunno what you can do if your stripping the hub internals. Link below :-) hope it helps http://www.superiorengineering.com.au/product_info.php?cPath=31_32_34_18...

yeah mate you will be right to use them. that lump on the upper arms is mass dampener, cuts down vibration.

I have a full GU front end (and rear) in my GQ with the twin piston brake and 15's clear the brakes fine.

well tested the claws out, the road noise isn't that bad, and they have a lot more grip than my old BFG muddies. so they'll stay on :-)

Well I've fitted them up, They look the part anyway, I'll find out this weekend if they are any good, Thanks for your input guys.
Tom

cheers mate

What he said

x2

Bent my GU pitman arm on my MAV, will a late model GQ pitman fit a GU box. The reason I ask because I've heard the GQ pitman arms are stronger than GU because of their shape but I also know the shafts are smaller, but I know the later model GQ's had a bigger steering box, smilar to GU, does anyone k...

And I hope you don't mind road noise.

cheers, they are a 2nd set, I've got BFG muddies 35's for day to day duties

I've bent one and looking for a replacement.

Just picked up a set of 35 inch Claws for nothing to put on my Mav, How do you guys rate them?

bogged wrote:I see what your saying with the savings, but then I think if they do shit themselves, its going to cost a lot more than the difference in the 2 locker to fix them...

Exactly

I saw a video comparing them with an ARB locker (granted the video was made by ARB), It showed the internals of the ARB locker vs the Chinese locker, the difference in build quality and component strength was huge, The Chinese locker had nasty cheap plastic bits in it and when they did a load test t...

Can ya tell me how much it weighs when it's finished?
cheers

I've done it, works well with both electric and endless air, just put a reg inline b4 it hits the dizzy

Since when? Have never "needed" to run swaybars on my shorty with superior arms, in fact, they aren't even drilled to bolt them on to start with

He's right..,,

turps wrote: but lets face it big flex and handling don't go together. even with the superior arms which 'seem' to work well on road still need sway bars.

I disagree, I have the superior super flex arms and I'm more than happy with the handling and I don't run sway bars.

from what i've heard/seen the XLT is the equivalent of a TI and a XT is a lower spec model. Hope the pricks pay out for out 4 ya. they dont mind taking the premiums do they...
