Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi guys, I've got exactly the same problem with my jack. its identical to the rodeo, can you tell me where you tap into the speedo wire? do you grab it from the tranny or just before it goes into the instrument cluster? I too have been looking at the jaycar kit too, looks like it will work a charm ...

i did mine with alloy blocks, made them myself, cost about the same as an ebay body lift though, i never did get around to lifting the bumper though. Things to watch out for is the bracket for the handbrake, undo the steering colum yoke and do it back up after the lit, and there were a few other, i ...

usually there is one wire thicker than the rest, this will be your 12v feed, using a cheepy light globe wiring tester is the best for test commecting. Because if u mess up and dead short it it will just light up instead of shorting, you'll be able to sort out what is what pretty quickly

that looks like a great modification mate, im going to have to do that! I bought a 40nb Dawn die off Nelso (thanks mate!) and its a ripper! it does a perfect job on the tube i had which was 5mm wall thickness, and does a nearly as good a job on the 2mm but leaves a small kink which is still passable ...

http://img.kmate.com.au/factory/pipebender/bender12-g3.jpg i bought one of these and its rubish. ive tried thin walled pipe, thick walled, bending on the seam, off the seam, full of sand, bending slow, fast, everything i can think of except heating it before bending. the seller offered me my money ...

not that i know of mate, i guess you could but i think it would make a shit ride, are you sure your not referring to installing extended shackles? if so you would even this out with winding up your torsion bars, someone correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure extended shackles are illegal. so you ...

Thanks for the advice, ill have to pull the wheel off and have a look, ive also been told that inside the indicator assembly there is a nylon cam with two pins on it to turn it off and these are broken, ill have to have a look for myself and report back.

Thanks again
James

Ive had this problem since i bought the truck, When i use the right indicator the switch wont turn off automaticly when i turn the wheel back. The left one operates no problems. Ive seen the indicator switches on ebay for $60ish and im worried these will be cheap crap that wont last long, so im ...

Hey mate, If your considering doing a body lift this is worth a read http://forum.australia4wd.com/index.php?/topic/19916-rodeo-2-body-lift/ I have just done a 40mm lift on my rodeo and there is a lot to consider, when going over 40mm its not just jacking it up and putting new blocks under it ...

for anyone trying to attempt this, to save welding the bolts back in, I held my bolts in with a cold chissel while i did up the nut, as for the rear mount i slipped a 10mm bolt into the channel so it wedged itself in between the side of the channel and the nut. i didnt like the idea of welding a ...

awesome mate. thanks will do

well im just doing my body lift now, last night i thought id do the easy part first, the tray. Well it turned out to be not so easy, i removed all the nuts, well, its all gone to shit, last 2 bolts up the cab end are welded in, they are in a U channel so i cant cut the weld with a grinder, i ...

anyone?

nah you havent wasted your time as i wont buy the book if i dont get the guts to try it, ive read around a few threads and got advice off a few people and everyone has said its do-able so im waiting for a week where i dont need to drive to work friday and monday so if i can get a start on it friday ...

was it just the 2" blocks and longer bolts required? ive read about longer radiator hose, brake and clutch lines, and a fair few other things, or can i settle for a 40mm lift instead without changing much else?

sorry dude i dont think so

i just took mine off, they were as stuck as buggery so i found the longest key i could, close to 8mm but it was imperial i think, then i closed a 12' shifter on the end and used that for leaverage, felt like i was going to snap the alen key but after i broke the seal all was good.

Hey, did you end up doing your body lift? ive heard alot of things which make a body lift a bit more difficult, main one was the steering spline needed an extention on the shaft as it nearly pops out. any words of wisdom would be good coz im dying to do a body lift on mine

Dont quote me but im nearly certian its for the auto window up/down function. mine stuffed up about 6 months ago and it ended up being a solder join which needed reheated. when the box stuffed up in mine the drivers window wouldnt work at all but all other windows were fine. im only assuming its the ...
