Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Where in Melbourne are you? I don't know a lot about gas but i used to take my dual fuel mitsubishi pajero to Vito at AVS Auto in Hoppers Crossing.

He is excellent with all things LPG, conversions, break downs etc. He fixed an ongoing problem i had with mine that another so called LPG 'expert ...

Pirelli Scorpion AT's 31x10.5x15 on Sunraysia 15x7's.

Search around, there may be someone with a bit of know how who can make you up a rear bar. I refuse to spend $3000 on an ARB one when i can get one made locally for just over half the price.

Yes the locally made one might not be as deluxe as ...

Plus atm i am also looking at getting a Tigerz11 12000lb winch, they are cheap and apparently quite good!

Atm the tyres i have on it are the factory ones, highway shit. No good for any offroad, considering they are getting very close to the wear indicators too. Just booked the car in for next thursday to get the tyres fitted.

What do you mean where is the rear bar going? Yes i do have a canopy ...

Yeah it does look great. Been busy with work and other b/s so when i get some time i will sit down and work out how to put some photos up.

I have done quite a bit to it lately. Need to get my tyres asap as we have a 4wd trip planned for a couple of weeks away. At the moment i am doubting i will ...

Bullbar, snorkel, rails, scrub bars and steps are finally fitted. I have now put on my UHF aerial and am looking at buying some lights.

Ironman suspension lift kit is on and lifted it about 30mm in the front and 60mm in the rear.

Am currently saving for my 31x10.5.15 Pirelli Scorpion AT's which ...

I bought this lately...

Need to know how to wire it up. This is a dual horn kit, my courier only has the one disc horn.

Can i splice the wires for the single horn disc and run the two in line?

Hoping this ...

I am looking at setting up a dual battery system in my courier and am just wondering what kind of battery i should be using for the one to run my fridge off etc?

Should i get a deep cycle? How much am i looking to spend etc?

I got a quote from a place a little while again for Tunit brand chip, $1250 delivered, which seems about average for price.

I will post some pics once it's all done, if i can work out how to post them. I am taking some before and after shots.

As i said, i am getting the ironman kit and will be ...

31x12.5's will be good, don't know how well they will fit though. What rims are you going to run? 15x7 or 15x8?

I am getting 15x7 and i am going to run 31x10.5 Pirelli Scorpion AT's, got a good price on them and they seem like a good strong tyre.

Yeah you can chip a courier, is your's a turbo ...

I am still waiting for my iron man kit to arrive so i will let you know how i go with it. The rear springs for mine were on back order and were going to be some time before they arrived so the bloke did the rockcrawler brand rear springs (heavy duty) for the same price.

I got the HD springs for ...

I would just slowly save up all the money for your suspension gear and then get it all at once. Rather than buying it bit by bit and slowly needing to replace it all at different stages. Do it all in one go then it is all running at the same height and how it was intended. Otherwise you may be in ...

You don't need to change the torsion bars to wind them up but from what i understand if you wind it up without replacing it with a beefier one, like a rockcrawler or something it will make for a shitty ride and handling. Same as if you add extra weight to the front and don't replace it.

It's meant ...

No, won't be fitting it to myself. Have a mate at work who is a mechanic, he might help me but i am shopping around at the moment for someone to fit it.

I will be cranking up the torsion bar on the front of mine.

The 4wd show is here this weekend, spewing i am working most of the weekend though ...

Rancho shocks hey? I looked at them but it was too much money, ended up going with an Ironman lift kit, $1296 delivered.

I tried some 31's on mine the other day on 15x8 rims. They rubbed at the front on the strap underneath that holds the bottom of the bumper, so with a small chop it would be right ...

My 05 Courier is the same, and it doesn't have any airbags either so nothing to worry about there.

Don't get colour tint, it looks shit and mirror tint is illegal in most states. I have tint on mine, 20% on the driver and passenger window and 5% (limo tint) on the rest. Darkest legal for the front ...

Not tight mate, just never had one fitted so had no idea on price!

what kind of courier do you have?

i have a 2005 courier dual cad 4x4 that's about to get 2" suspension lift, bullbar, steps, rails and scrub bars, snorkel and 31's.

Shortly after that i will be fitting drawers and dual battery system in the tub. Oh and i have a flexiglass canopy covering the tub ...

Cool, thanks for that.

I can't wait to get it done, because after that will be bullbar, steps and rails. Then i can fit some 31's and get it offroad a bit!

No worries, the price from the suspension place sounded good, but the mechanic wanted a bit much i think.

Does anyone know if i have to lengthen brake lines or adjust anything else because of the lift?

They are new ones i am buying.

I have a 2" suspension lift kit for my 2005 Ford Courier and i am currently looking for someone to fit it.

It has 4 new raised shock absorbers, new torsion bar fron and new rear leaf springs.

I also have the reinforced shock tower brackets for the front.

Have been quoted $265 by a suspension ...

Thanks mate, Pirelli's it will be!

Does anyone know if $55 per wheel for Sunraysia 15x7's is good?

Thanks guys, i am thinking i might go with the Pirelli's. A mate has them and he is pretty happy with them.

Just thought i would ask the peanut gallery...

I am trying to decide which AT i want to go with, i have been offered some pretty good prices and for 31" AT's i could get

Pirelli Scorpion AT's or Goodyear Wrangler AT's. The Pirelli are only $5 more per tyre.

I had Wranglers on my old pajero and was very happy with the wear but don't know a lot ...

Some photos would be good thanks mate.

Hope some other people can be of assistance too?

Why's that? Do you know someone?

$800 (fitted) for a roof console i would consider a bit rich and the floor consoles i just looked at are about $400-$500.

The price for the floor console isn't too bad but still shopping around. Got any suggestions?

I have a 2005 Ford Courier Dual Cab 4x4.

I am currently looking for a roof console and centre floor console for my ute. I have been looking around a little bit and have come up against some very exhorbitant prices for the both. Not sure which one i want to get at the moment whether it's a floor or ...

I had a 2003 Toyotoa Corolla, 1.8L engine, 5 spd manual, was a great car, very reliable engine, cost nothing on servicing, only needs oil and water and the car has done 180,000kms before the factory clutch needed replacing.

See how you go but i would recommend these, toyota engines are great ...

Apparently there isn't a Safari snorkel for my model anyways, only airtec or airflow. So i am getting airtec.
