Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Taipan on mine happy with that ..as Joshy said easy to fit ...access dump pipe bolts through the plastic splash guard in the wheel arch with an open end ring spanner, tis easier than trying from underneath with a socket, swivel extension etc. Cheers for that yeah looks like manta :-) Hope I haven't ...

Cheers Joshy

I'm waiting on a few quotes to see what supply vs fitted looks like as I only have a drive way to work on.

Cheers

Hey Team So I flattened the pipe out wheeling today and would like to know what after market exhaust set ups people have on their VDJ 4.5l v8 lancruisers. Not that it matters I have a 76 series. Not to worried about the sound but would like a bit more grunt. Current thinking is a Either a manta ...

Hay mate I just got myself a 76 and my old man got a 200. (very happy Toyota dealer) If you want a luxury tourer then go the 200 with a 40mm lift and lockers it will go more places then you would want to drive it. I got the 76 and in short want a little Over The Top when it came to mods but it has ...

Hay All Today I picked up a set of ARB flares today and did not realize they need to be painted apparently they are not UV treated. Is there anyone in the Perth metro area that can be recommended where i can get them painted will just be plain old gloss black. Figured i may as well support people's ...

is yours a 105series? solid axle front, not IFS? I lifted my 105 2" and run 35x12.5" MTZs on 1" offset 16x8" rims. it rubbed badly on the front guards, I couldnt get into my driveway without mods. I relocated the front diff 18mm forward at the chassis mounts, trimmed the plastic inner guards and ...

The hungys have plenty of guard clearance and room for bigger tires with minimal lift. I have run up to 7" lift on mine with 38s. IT was too big to be enjoyable to drive at that height. BEst advice I can give is don't go over about 4" lift. You can still run 36s with that lift and minimal rubbing ...

Ok before I get flamed I flicked through some pages and did some searching and couldn't find what I want What have people go for their 3-4' lifts on 100 series land cruisers I am eyeing up a stage 5 kit from superior engineering but I know that there are some things within that I would change. Do ...

There was a three piece output shaft on the older r151 boxes, the output shaft coming out of the tranny was coupled to the transfer input with a loose fitting sleeve. The sleeve oly contacted about 1.5cm's iirc of the input shaft and was prone to wear and eventual stripping. Rebuilds are done with ...

I have a surf a 2lte 2.4 turbo dsl and have ever overheated it even when plugging through deep sand and reving the guts out of it... or towing the camper trailer... the ADD system can be over ridden then throw in some manual hubs and you basically have a standard hilux driveline.. ok you don't but ...

i thought this is why you have a tow ball or rec hitch at the front of your tow car.... just next to the winch... front towball make moving trailer easy apparently. yeah it does for silly people like me who can't reverse a trailer to save my life. But i have used the winch on the front to bring in ...

It makes any tow so much easier if the job doesnt have propulsion.

I don't know why anyone would even consider the HZJ if they can afford a factory turbo? 1HD-FTE is 10x the engine a 1HZ is. Availability, if buying 2nd hand.... and sum people just dont like turbo's. but yes they have better runnig gear The average price i can see here is 10k difference between ...

would of seen it a bit like this ay? http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs1365.snc4/163771_1277187027258_1757481730_488291_8148427_n.jpg Can't really remember was a little pre occupied getting mates car back together but remember it as the tray was set back with the engel.... ands did ...

in the car park? at the bullcreek shops or where? honestly dont remember seeing a missing wheel'd 80 haha you in the leeming area too? you probably 'heard' me drive off as its not the quietest 75 around haha otherside is just a spare wheel carrier with a fold down ramp. the engel side used to be a ...

nothing fancy... redid the bullbar, side steps, side bars, snorkel, and rims in subframe enamel gloss black. also made a system so my engel fits behind the cab. http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/hs062.snc6/167286_1283649508816_1757481730_495646_5975255_n.jpg http://img521.imageshack.us ...

The plan is to get a HDJ (factory turbo) but they are as rar as a cherry in a night club so I like to keep my options open... I do not have allot of experience with either car, but from the searching I have done and talking to the mechanics at work I have just heard of a few cases of the HDJ's ...

Ok i have done some searching around and have come back with mixed answers so I just want to ask my questions and see where we go..... and can we keep feedback on topic... I am planning on getting a 79 ute either the HZJ79R (ono turbo) or the HDJ79R (factory turbo) 1.- What are the inherited issues ...

maybe make your car a little more know in the build up section so people know how to help.... well i'm not going to say anything that hasn't the horse doesn't need flogging... but depending on how much you drive this thing a good sound system wouldn't go a stray and some nice comfy seats 75s are not ...

this thread is epic and puts big smiles on my face..... not sure where the original topic is....

what im looking at doing is buying the complete car that has been written off in someway that the engine is still fine, then finding out what i need and pull that out and drop it into the 79 series. u said i would need the 100 series gearbox and t/case.....wont the 79 series (h150) handle it? im ...

if fitting the 100 series engine and 80s box. it is like the swop i did on the surf you make money off your old donk and parts from the donner car.... does take a while though...

time to go talk to my friend who has some space in his back yard i think

may want to add a lotto win in there as well i may hi-jack this thread as i am planning a similar build in the future... so sorry in advance back to the weak r150 gear box, can you bolt a 80 box strait up to replace it, these have their own inherent problems but are also much easier to get hold of ...

I have found Kewdale tyres the cheapest place to buy Maxxis in Perth. yeah same.. except the mob round the corner from me Jandicot tires or what ever price match to save me the trip.. i found my big horns don't make much road noise if the pressure is right... 36-8ish (hot) and only ever put holes ...
