Outer Limits 4x4 Board

although if u want MASSIVE flex u could always convert to coil

although that is very expensive

A little off the topic but anyway

Can someone explain to me how exactly a lock right diff works??

Who makes rockhopper is it big balls offroading or another company and big balls offroading just sell them??

I am talking about a rockhopper from G.R.P auto not big balls offroading??

edit: well installed by G.R.P auto anyway
it cost $1600

Does anyone know of some decent, comfortable seats that bolt straight into (or as near to as possible) a 95 Sierrra??

Apparently, according to some tax invoices that the previous owner gave me the roackhopper was installed in 1/2002 and the bearings, input shaft and thrust washers were replaced. Another question Greg who did your rockhopper gearing? Was it GRP (who i believe don't make/install rockhoppers anymore ...

Mine do - series 3 whine...

so yours whine in high range all the time??

more noticeble when no throttle i.e. coasting ??

yeah the bit of pipe has already being cut off and the bullbar mounts have been lifted to sit inline with the body

the springs probably aren't 4' inch thats just what the guy i brought it off said by the way.

no pics of it in action as i've only had it for 3 days or so

but i can take pics of it sitting thier if u want to see them

O and it has a snorkel too but the exhasut heat exchange pipe is not blocked off so taht needs fixing

Ok i will have a look at the t/case what is the normal reduction for series three rockhopper in high range?? i come from the foothills of the Barrington tops about 45 min north of singleton which is about an hour inland of Newcastle along the new England highway and what is the minimum suspension ...

You may want to get the t/case checked now as it shouldn't be whining, you don't want it blowing up as replacement is a bit $$$

Straight-cut gears are the cause of the whine i believe as they are used in the rockhopper series three lower high range

thanx for that Barathrum

also i am quite happy with the zook's off-road capabilities atm and aren't really wanting anything more

just as the zook already has the Climax shackles if they don't create massive problems and aren't VERY detremental to on raod handling i would like to keep them

Okay, the story is that i brought the zook about 3 days ago. It is a 95 model 1.3 engine, has 31" inch tyres, 2" inch body lift, 4" inch suspension lift, (so i have been told, not sure how long or brand??) lock rite rear diff, Rockhopper series 3 transfer case, (got to love the whine) climax ...

yeah well atm is's got 4" inch suspension lift and 2" inch boody lift so i'll probablly leave it as it.

as i'll be driving it to school evey day and atm it handles quite nicely on the road.

Yeah well i just brought the zook and it came with the Climax shackles already installed so i will probably modify the shackles with locakable pins as atm they don't have them.

Any chance of getting photos of your locking mechanism Barathrum??

i haven't had any problems, but then mine are just on the rear. I do tend to drive around without the pins in. just don't go really hard into any bends. and don't go flat out over speed humps when your mall cruising (cause they will open up and you do get a large bang went the weight of the vehicle ...

How do they affect on the road 60+kph wandering??

thanx

that's what i thought

When standard is the ignition as same as all three doors??

Is the glove box the same key?

Is the fuel cap the same key??

I have heard from numerous sources that Climax shackles are bad.

But i would like to know why??
