Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Check with your comp organiser...

i know CAMS recently (last 12 months or so) reviewed the "Expiry" dates for FIA approved harnesses, believe they are still reviewing the American standard ones.

As in welded up or found other tanks to fit...

Problem is the regulation of fuel tanks and nee for engineering, even with a tank swap for a designed and registered tank.

Seems they're worried about leakage and fire.... go figure.

i'll be missing this one..

pre booked for the girl's Guide troupe....

although the car may make it without me...

Spock

You're right, bullbar didn't work so good... but tube bar might

Depends if it has any adjustment left in it... and if you really expect it to last.

do you have the transfer case brake or rear wheels?

Spock

That's it, tied up inboard of the chassis.

Enjoy the site.

I used mine to flog about between mine sites around Isa, driven Brisbane to Isa, Isa to Cairns, Isa Townsville etc... it's not the most comfortable, but the engine didn't care, although 90 is a more reasonable target.

Still does Brisbane to Janowen, LCMP, Imbil, Kyogle.

As noted, improved seating ...

We went down to Scenic Rim AP today, first time at any 4wd park.
First time to see a comp. Had a ball, thanks to everyone involved in organising, and to all the competitors for putting on a fantastic show. We will certainly be back again. :D

No prob from the competitor side... we enjoy putting on ...

'sok, found the updated costs by trolling last years threads

to enter the event costs

$60 for members of the club
$90 for non members.

I'm guessing that the entry form for download at http://www.toughtracks4wdclub.org/rules.html isn't the current one...

What engine you running?

We got a LWB that dropped 31 STT's under it... murdered the power... Ted from RooTED has also commented on the problems of too much rubber and power loss before.

'Pedes are good as you can get them in a 29", hoever i've found that though i love them, they don't "stick" on ...

This is ok if you are running led and incandecent globes. I use to run front led and rear led with incandecent side blinkers with this flasher unit. I recently changed side indicators to led and it didn't work with the flasher. Only way I could get it working was to use the standard flasher and ...

I would think he is after a replacement soft top, $1000 for a one of custom fibreglass hard top would be the bargain of the year.
Peter.
Yes i would prefer the FRP top even if it was the rear half
On my way home from work last night one of the side windows ripped out :lol: so im in desprate need ...

I may be getting old and senile..

but i recall reading that the fiat 500 diesel was a joint job between suzuki and fiat, based on the G13 series...

be waiting a while to get one off a wreckers though, the 500's hven't been out that long here, not even sure if they released the diesel in oz.

has taken quite a few rock hits and survived, since put in led light strips between the tubes. Protects the longranger nicely too.

SNIP
FX324 is a well tested, tried, and proven product.

And doesn't have any maps that relate to the last 5 years or so. Out of date to fark! And no updates.

looked at the date on the topo maps from sunmap, natmap etc?

5 years is recent!

I agree, the Magellan was a nice product, with software ...

Yep... we make life to hard, till we miss one...

Mind you, the proposal is to ditch WHSO's when the new harmonisation laws come into effect... go figure

Spock

thank you to all the people that make the comp happen and a special thanks to the competitors in trophy class "we just have a good time" how many more zuks can get to the next one

One lives in hope... (hell i'd like to just get out for a day trip play!)

If he's looking at cutting down the tailshaft, i'd suggest he's leaving the t-case handbrake on.....

from memory that's when you need the NT bolt pattern...

i was tempted with mine, but pulled it off in the end for simplicity... plus from all accounts i've had, the t-case handbrake is no better ...

DGA insurance mate. Provided you're 4WD is legal, and is being used on legal land, you're 100% covered off road anywhere in Australia. Even includes additional camping gear cover etc at no cost. No limit to modifications at all, just needs to be legal (engineered where required etc.)
