just to clarify - the title of my post was chopped off. This error happens when turning on the ignition (starting), not on turning the steering wheel.

Gas conversion for guzzlin' 4.2

What's the average cost to go straight gas or dual fuel on a tb42 (GQ). It's got 188000 on the clock but my economy is woeful (~27L/100ks) with a 4"lift and 35s. I've gotten a quote for ~3000! for dual fuel conversion which is almost the value of a new chev engine. So, Is it too late for my engine ...

Has anyone thought about fitting unimog 404s to a GQ patrol

I may be dreaming here but i thought about the cost of fitting twin lockers (3000) plus ratios fitted (coupla thou) plus rockhoppers plus 5 link plus lift etc and still needing to consider GU swap for strength and still only legally being able to run 32-33 inch tyres onroad or ... if at all feasible ...

Thanks for the replies, I 'll look into the wranglers or simex 32s.

Do you know if you can order a new placard from the factory and i wonder if i get it from ford or nissan for the maverick. I can hardly read mine but i think it may say something tiny like 215s?

Is there any legal way to run big tyres 35+

i've read all i can on this topic and it seems like there's no winning. There's a catch 22 between ADR rules for needing a run 8.5inch or wider from these tyres (whatever the manufacturer says) and then wider rims being illegal from an increased track width point of view. It also seems that even if ...
