Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Does anyone know if the studs (transfer case end) where the tailshaft bolts up on a 75 cruiser ute can be flogged out so i can replace with longer bolts? cheers

thanks i will try them out.

What is a good fix for this? The truck sits round for a month to a couple months between drives. Its a v8 petrol and runs like rubbish when fuel gets a bit old. Aside from draining the tank each time which will cost lots and is a major pain to do, is there any solution to the problem? Additive ...

cheers

what are people using to prevent fuel leaking out the breather hose in roll over? i have a petrol v8 conversion but stuck with original diesel tank and just ran fuel hose with filter on end from the tank breathers. i have noticed i can see the petrol vapours from the end of these breather hoses and ...

sorry to hi jack your thread but does anyone know a good mobile brake mechanic in the ipswich area that can plumb in a hydraulic handbrake?

wonder if this will fit into the 120 prados?

club rego is really more for cars. thers a bunch of restrictions that are easier to get around in a toughy opposed to a comp truck. having been in various car clubs i also thought about that option for my truck as its about to turn 30 years old. conclusion, save up and buy a trailer!

Thanks for all the suggestions. Saw Bolsy recently and like what he does. Thanks again.

kustomv840 ive got a cruiser ute so rough guess 2 - 2.5t. not sure as i havent been game to run the 20min gauntlet down to the weighbridge to find out. what $$ are we talking? pm if you want.

anyone building trailers for comp trucks in brisbane for a reasonable price? ive been to a couple of places and the general response seems to be nah mate not interested or that'll be a million bucks! i like the idea of the drive over guards like lukeys 4x4. any brisbane suggestions would be ...

mickyd do you have any pics of your setup? i would be interested to see how you plumbed it all up and the fan setup etc. cheers

do those pins fit 9 inch shackles?

from memory it was about 700. im not savvy enuf to upload photos but pm us ur mobile and i can send u a pic on the phone if ur interested.

ring on track. they have a guy up the road from theyre shop that did my 75 series ute soft top. awsome job.

rito. i will get a new 1 asap. thanx heaps for all the help. few more mods and it will be time to play. cant wait.

oh, i got the engine through grant from brisbane engine balancing at capalaba.

turns out the thermostat was cactus. i tried the boil the water thing with the other thermostat a couple times and couldnt tell if it was opening or not. so i put a new gasket on and ran it without any thermostat. results were driving round without the the thermo fan off and as much revs as i want ...

cool. i got another thermostat off a mate tonite so i will try that 1st tomorow. its a brand new crate engine and from memory i thought i read somewhere they have 3 tune modes. not sure, but maybe the timing is a bit out? tackle that next. the dizzy and coil are ac delco units that came with the ...

photo rookie! thanx for that.

thanx for the input. gingerbreadman it was a 2h truck so has the 2h radiator. its an efi 350 ramjet. stuart warner gauge wired into the chev block, with the sender that came with the guage. i will try post some pics, hopefully they work. i ditched the stock fan and shroud in favour of a thermo so i ...

i have a 350 chev in my 75 ute and went with the orig radiator and mounted a thermo to it. first drive it was hovering between 200-220. im thinking its too small a setup and maybe junking it and getting a tray mounted radiator. what are these worth and does anyone in the ipswich area do them? thanx

i have the marks adaptors ( waste of money ) kit to adapt from 350 chev to 5 speed landcruiser gearbox. if anyone is familiar with this kit suggestions are welcome. it uses a flexplate instead of a flywheel and is bolted up to a very heavy adaptor/spacer plate. i have replaced the brand new starter ...

thankyou. that settles it then. i will leave them on for the next trip up to fraser and see how they go.

wondering how simex et2's go on the beach? dont wanna do the 2 sets of tyres thing when i only go up the beach maybe twice a yr.
