Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hey guys. Can someone point me in the right direction please. I'm trying to find measurements for rim to guard on my 2002 3.0 dual cab lux. It's got 2 inch lift but I don't like the angle on pretty much everything to do with steering. Just want to know what everyone else is running up front with 2 ...

im in qld and my 4b has been over the pits countless amouts of times. they have never said anything abount my sliders being welded. i have welded a piece of channel to chassis then welded flatbar to end of tube to bolt onto channel. not saying its the right way or legal, ive just never been picked ...

is it overheating?
as said "if it aint broke.... dont fix it..!"

what do you need out of it?

i had to do a body lift to fit my 3rz. (yn67 88) the power streering reservoir sticks up to high for the bonnet to close and unless you beat the crap out of you firewall it will hit there aswell. you may be able to bolt box onto motor and put it in that way but i wouldnt recommend it as if you need ...

ive had some pretty stuck pins and never needed to use oxy. just cut the pin on the inside of the shackle with a grinder and bash it out..

might be worth checking shocks too

nothin like a few grinding sparks on ya new hilux

mine will be dobinsons customs next. just a warning about E nhanced F orby S #^t. they are the worst things i have put on the lux. 6 mths and there sagged in the front and leaning to one side. The rear were sooooo hard id get about an inch of flex. the angle of the shackles at either end are strait ...

thought id better elaborate a little. to do suspension mods like coil conversions, solid axle conversions you need to apply with one of these babys http://www.support.transport.qld.gov.au/qt/formsdat.nsf/8947c9bfbd134b464a25669000137547/17d2a89d810832a04a2566d000028e8b/$FILE/F1854_es.pdfs" onclick ...

hey guys, im thinking about upgrading the brakes in the gremlux. its a 93 ln106 solid, i was talking to my blueplatter yesterday and he says if i can use the entire braking systm from a car i wont need engineering and he can blueplate it. eg front and rear calipers, rotors, master ect from a gu ...

can u post p some pics?

Weding can be OK but.. doesnt matter if its for comp use or general recovery, the paramaters are the same. I test welds as part of my job. May I sugest that you 'always" put a bolt through as a secondary safety factor. I would also like to question the fillet size in the pic of Buds above. Withuot ...

probally a bit of a pain in the ass but if you have a welder try tacking another nut on to the locking nut?

have you tryed flipping the drag link so the short end is facing the u-bolts? and yea flat u-bolts, pm'd about drop draglink

get a socket a little smaller than the dia of the nut and hammer it on.

just make sure you put a tyre inbetween the font bar and wall. the last thing you want to do is scratch it

ill also be trying to put radiator on the tray so the winch can fit as far in the engine bay as possible.

thanks guys, What engine did your lux start with, do you need to fit a petrol tank with EFI pump or do you already have one? it was a 3ltr deisel. i bought the lux with out motor. and i bought a whole statesman. will try and use pump out ofit if i can similar to the way i done the 3rz in the other ...

The ecotec, imo, is one of the worst motors ever made for a production car.

Not quite as bad as the starfire though..
