Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Oh I see what you mean, I thought they had to stay as near to straight as possible. Also interested to find out this regulation. Maybe you should PM David metcalfe. His name on here is xtreme mmm I think

Stays have to be at a minimum of 30 degrees
(Stupid phone causing too many posts)

The stays can't be bent as it then becomes a weak spot

Google.....ccda rollbar.....first topic.....

No worries thanks for the heads up!

Cheers boys!

Hey guys I run maxidrive reduction gears in my lt230 and was looking to see what other people think is the best oil for the case? It owes me a lot of money so I wanna take care of it. Cheers

Make a box front shaft, very easy. Do a search on here as it has been explained extensively with photos.

I think you got these two mixed up brad haha
I've run mtr's in both 35's and 37's and loved them!

One little rule you can go by is 1/3 of the shock travel up and 2/3 down. Measure the distance between the shock mounts and go from there.

Thanks boys

Hey guys received my 49% reduction gears for my Lt230 and was going to install them myself but reading through the instructions and knowing how much they cost me I might leave it to a professional :lol: . Just wanting to know who people recommend in the Sydney area? Main thing being they have done ...

Yes they will fit

Well that's what our customer told us he said haha

Sounds like a cool idea, if you've got the money go for it. Look up Consulmotive and speak to him. We might be doing a coilover sas on a 2000 hilux and we told the bloke to ring him first to see if he would engineer it and he said as long as it's safe he'll pass it.....

You'd know about that! haha

Beautiful thanks mate

Hey guys just wanna check that I'm getting the right numbers when calculating my crawl ratio. Specs are a VZ 6 speed, Lt230 1.21 case, 4.88 diffs and 49% reduction gears.

Cheers

I find the biggest thing with the kingpin bolts is them coming loose hence uneven forces causing them to snap. So heavy on the lock tight!

Well worth buying the ARP hub studs and kingpin bolts. I snapped all my hub studs on one side out wheeling and it's not much fun trying to get the snapped ones out even with ezy outs....

Longs up front with cromolly hub gears, ARP studs. Stock rear axles and only broke a rear axle once....

Well they arrived on Friday after a month. DHL lost them in hong king for 2-1/2 weeks.

Very happy with how they look come PRE GREASED and shiny.

Only got the inner hub gears oh well theyll be right.

Now just to go brake my old ones befor they get replaced

Why not fit them before breaking ...

ARP hub studs

I used to run a DTS but Denco's are also good or you can go the cheap way and grab a CT20 off a surf....I'd say stick with the 2 inch lift it has. It's IFS so I personally don't see the need to go any bigger. Maybe some new shocks if the old ones are stuffed.

longfield hub gears

Oh and put a turbo on it straight away!

Fix the motor, get some barwork, winch, decent tyres and leave it at that.

I don't see why you wouldn't just put an ifs rear diff in to start of with. It's not like anything major has to get changed around either. Straight bolt up and chuck your centre in. They're so cheap! Wheel spacers are dangerous. I used to run them, my mate borrowed them anrd one day out wheeling he ...

Very clean looking rover but it doesn't seem to be working very well. Looks very stiff lifting wheels. Any pics of it articulating?

In the video, I only saw it lift a front left wheel whilst climbing a hill with the right rear dropping into a hole...which 99.9999999% of 4WDs would do in the same ...
