Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I have a 89 ln106, its done 330,000 and in 35,000km i have had to rebuild the fuel pump, replace starter motor twice, new gear box twice, new radiator, and definately a new steering dampener.

I havent looked at the centre bearing, but i now think i should!

My 89 model did exactly the same thing, and yeah i just cleaned it up and welded it on both sides and is as good as new!

ah ha, there is the problem, you have me confused with someone else I was not in the Jeep down at Taylors Road, I was a passenger in the paj

But generally i do drive that hard

No :( we got rid of it, it was absolutely killing us with the fuel usage and also with me having the lux as well, it wasnt really suitable for kids, bit small.

But one day, i will get another one for sure

Yeah we love ours too, although as our baby is only 4 weeks old, have only just started using it But it really is a smooth machine.

And plus when i had to get rid of our TJ i thought i had better still own one jeep, and its more fuel economical than a tj

Yeah of course it does

I got one of those jeeps myself recently, and my wife and family gave me wierd looks when i tried to test the articulation of it. And also why i seem to take the muddiest dirtiest, hilliest, most adventious route when we are out and about

Why didnt you just pump it up with the on board air compressor....opps i mean...tyre pump that it comes with

I have them on my Hilux and have found them to be sensational. They are only used for Road, i have other tyres for wheeling, but they have been on there for about 20,000 so far and i havent noticed any loss in tread, other than becuase my front tyres needed an alignment.

G'day,

My 89 hilux ticked over 300,000 on the weekend as well and the light came on. I had the fuel pump rebuilt at around 275,000 and they did the timing belt then as well. So i dont need to replace it yet, is there anyway you can just turn the light off?

i guess it also depends on how good your vehicle and ability is. Being the fact that it has rained a fair bit in Melbourne over the last week or so and i have a stock vehicle i probably wouldnt i guess.

I had my Diesel pump fixed by these guys about 4 months ago and i found them to not mess me around, they were honest when telling me what was wrong.
