Outer Limits 4x4 Board

well my experiment with itialian gears waas a faliure. dont use these if your running a hp rear. on the weekend mine went bang. although that is with 37"s though. got a genuine center in now so we'll see how that works.

I'm pretty sure it's a splined shaft but an adjustable draglink prob woulnt hurt either. cheers ray

hey bud, when i first did my conversion i went and raided the scrap bin at tjm. got a heap of different coils and worked out what would suit. i ended up usin gq 1 1/2 lift coils. but surf coils were great but didnt like haulin my trailer. its a cheap way to get a heap of different setups till you ...

hey thanks wendle for makin this info available. I'm in the middle of doing this and swapping out my mq p/s box for a late modle gq one. will post pics when done. thanks again ray

well i have just swapped a efi motor in my friends truck. was carby. I have swapped the entire loom, dash and air con. i have every thing hooked up as far as i can tell but i get no joy when i turn the key. cant even get head lights.lol. anyone got some suggestions. ???????? cheers in advance ray

prob just mud . you could try washing it out but prob wont work now. lol. a VL alt fits but you have to modify the alt housing to fit snug. i did this a couple of times. now i have a falcon alt in took heaps of grinding to make it fit. good luck.

new bearings yep and i thought my preload was fine but will check it out when i remove it in the next day or so. thanks

thanks guys. yes they are antiono gears.? they are both new and a matched pair. i think i will pull it out and take it to a pro.

thanks guys. they are brand new. pattern was good as per manual. they are itialian gears. i dont care if i blow them out in the bush but id like to feel safe driving on the highway.

today i swapped in a new 4.6 ratio into the rear of my troll. all backlash settings were good but on coast it seems to whine loudly. should i be worried? thanks in advance. ray

so i swapped in my 4.6 hp today. when im coasting it whines kinda loudly. all backlash settings were good. should i b worried. under load it is quite and smooth. please help. cheers in advance ray

mabey this should go in the bible? seen it asked a bunch of times.

yeah these are made by antonio maserio. just thought i'd give em a go. and if anyone will brake them i should. 37" creepies, reverse cut running hp rear and a super charger waiting to be bolted in. just an experiment to see how they go. the guy selling them hadn't ever heard of running front gears ...

i hadn't even considered fuel. listen to bigrig i reckon. bigrig im with ya on the donkeys. 3 truck will be interesting again.

well they turned up today they seem to be well made on sight. no blemishes or any thing. i'll bolt it in to my hp rear this weekend and we'll all see how good they are.

bud a bigger exhaust is always a worthy mod. i'd go a 3" myself. on my 3l i run a 2.5". no cat just a straight thru muffler and dump pipe. prob should have a cat though. haha just my opinion. cheers ray

yep drive it every day. groceries, work, play, tourer, towing tandem trailer. as for the measurement i just lined it up with the center of the pinion. (no leaks yet). although looking at it you could prob just raise it 75mm. i kinda wish i'd cut the pumpkin off and welded front to rear. http://i179 ...

hey thats my how to lol. thanks for makin it better sim. i moved my filler up about 4". left the old one in as well.

ya beat me to pics wicked. i did this on sunday. i had to drill out all the holes but 4 and had to drill new ones to suit. my old mq locker and 4.6 gears in low pinion mq rear housing are now bolted in to a front gq diff. thaks for your pics ben they helped me heaps. it does however mean your ...

sorry, the holes in the third member need to be drilled to 10mm. the ones that bolt to the diff housing.

buddy search for wicked's build. i've finially have everything collected i need to do this swap over the weekend. yay.. i'm pretty sure you need a drill, a tap, a grub screw and locktite.

rd28 was 4.6 yes that is correct. 4.3s only came in rb30 pettys im pretty sure. cheers ray

well i decidied guinea pig a set any way. im running a mq rear on the back side of the teeth in the front and i'll try one of these front gears in the back, reverse side of teeth as well. i spoke to the guy that sells them and he had no idea how they would hold up. i'll post up after i thrash them a ...

hey guys, i;m about to get a new front ratio for my gq diff. i'm wondering what peoples opinions are on the cheap ebay gears. all i can find after searching is that they are harder to set up and that the company makes the gears for a lot of european truck and car manufacturers. Also a lot of guys ...
