Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Anyone at all help with this??
Need to get the rig back up and going again so I can get out wheeling!!

OK folks, where do I get my hands on some heavy duty tubes to fit inside a 36 12.5 r16 simex ET2?? Put a small slice in the side of one at Willowglen last year, had it vulcanised and worked a treat until 2weekends ago and let go again. Really can't afford to buy another tyre at the moment so looking ...

Just over a week till it starts, so who is ready and who has a busy weekend . :?: Haha, was just thinking the same thing..... not much happening on this thread considering it's only a week away. My hunk of junk is almost back together and ready to go, should have it finished off by this arv. Keep ...

Yeah my 2nd is due on the Saturday 9th June :roll: not to mention our first was due Willowglen Oct long weekend 2yrs ago..... family planning at it's best huh ...

I have this and looks good, but appears to be silicone based. Trying to steer away from these type ones.

Just wondering what recommendations people have for getting those old black plastic bumpers, flares and external trims back to a shiney finish??

Preferably some products that are non silicon based would be great as they just seem to get more dust and sh!t stuck to them.

Yeh mate, it's the old Blackrat.... new sponsors hence new name ;) Ahhh, Had a funny feeling this would be on THAT weekend?? Our family planning dept needs a stern talking to!!! :agrue: Our first bub was due on Oct long weekend in 2010 so missed out on Willowglen that year, and now our 2nd is due ...

Weather update...... ABSOLUTELY BLOWING SNOT BALLS DOWN HERE!!!

Bureau of Meterology say expect gusts up to 40km/h winds...... WELL.... it's far exceeding that here at Bungonia. NOT looking forward to setting the tent & marquee up in this shit!!

WELL.... currently at Bungonia for the night and might I say..... IT F'ing FREEZING!!! Verrrrryyy windy and cold. Have the occasional showers with sunshine too... but the wind is a killer!! :bad-words: Here's hoping the weather is nice for setting up camp in the morning!! Do we know what time gates ...

YAY for the crap weather..... AGAIN!!! :bad-words: First time camping with our 1yr old daughter so could get interesting!! BUT, on a brighter side to life.... My truck got the all clear today after FINALLY being put back together this morning. Was able to take it for a quick 1hr shake down up the ...

I have not tried Haultech's so i cant comment on those. My opinion is if it is a choice between aftermarket or cal's i would choose cal's. Cals are manufactured with a bit thicker bel and smaller balls than OEM so in theory if both NTN and Cals have perfect heat threating than the cals will be ...

OK, tax is back and need to upgrade the good ol CV's before up coming comps in about 6-7 weeks. Will be running 37 comp spec treps after chrissy, but for now it's F+R locked weekend play truck running Simex ET2's with the occasional comps, prob 1 or 2 per year. I know there's a bucket load of crap ...

Anything can be done champ, though your best bet would be to go see an engineer first..... especially as it'll be modifying the chassis!! I'd probably go see the engineer that certified the 454 conversion first as he should have details of all the mods for your car on file.... and then take it from ...

How's the weather been out there the past couple of weeks... much rain?? tracks going to be reasonably dry or a bit slippery??

Weather forecast for the weekend!!

Just a quick one, Buying an ARB airlocker for the rear of my ute and I'm removing and reinstalling the centre to myself as I want to do teh rear wheel bearings at the same time. I've been quoted $260 just to fit the locker to the centre, is this a fair price?? Seems a little over the top seeing as ...

Maybe there's a reason it's not on there!!

16 inch wheels will bolt up no worries and make the tire sit much nicer near the flared wheel arch on a patrol instead of making it look like a transit van on a mini wheel track. 15 inch rims don't alwasy fit on a GU. You need to test fit them and make sure you have enough clearance on the caliper ...

Just looking at the difference in offsets between the standard 80 series rims, like these http://cgi.ebay.com.au/LANDCRUISER-GXL-80SERIES-16X8-WHEEL-TYRE-1-6-STUD-/280670220289?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item41593fb001 and the standard rims off a 2000 GU Patrol like these http://cgi.ebay.com ...

the locker box i got was about 250mmx250mmx250mm. i reckon it was less then 300mm cubed. that was a brand new locker for rear of a landcruiser 3yrs back. i found at the time it was slightly cheaper here in aus then OS. but it took some haggling $888+GST pickup from ARB newy. Can't say I'm too good ...

I work between AUS and the USA and have been looking at sending parts home for a while. If you use freight companies like UPS and FEDEX freight will be $200 plus per package. Alot of 'seller's use this form of freight as it is fully insured and the easiest and most guaranteed option for delivery ...

Just got an email back quoting $250 shipping via UPS, still worked out a smidge over $1000 total once converted back to AU$ which is still a decent saving compared to buying local. Going to get back to them and ask about the possibility of sending USPS and how much incl insurance. Here's hoping the ...

Just got back from a week a mates place in Coffs and have noticed a cluncking noise coming from the front drivers side hub.... but only in reverse!! Done some light 4wding up there around the Nymboida area, nothing serious where it would've caused it grief, & only used the "auto" side of the hub ...

Has anyone used the RDA Gold disc rotors.... the ones that are slotted and dimpled?? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/PATROL-GU-Y61-3-0L-4-2-4-5-98-06-Front-Gold-Disc-Rotors-/190488634463?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2c5a01e45f Looking to improve the braking on the 3L patrol and wondering if these are ...

Looks like being a bit wet this week. :bad-words: and flowing into the weekend too :bad-words: :bad-words: Hopefully the meteorologists are wrong ;) Hunter Forecast: http://www.bom.gov.au/nsw/forecasts/hunter.shtml 7 Day Forecast(Click on Singleton) http://www.bom.gov.au/nsw/forecasts/map7day.shtml ...

Not sure if this is of any help, but I'm currently in the process of buying my in-laws 3L patrol(tdi auto) and have driven this from Sydney to Ballina and back. Went great and couldn't fault it. My mate at Coffs has an manual 09 3L common rail. I had him drive my in-laws when I was there to see the ...

I'm probably going to be shot down by all the Aussie business owners for asking this.... but hey, I'm not that flush with cash and will grab something cheaper where possible for the time being and with the Aussie $$ climbing, may work better for me. Looking to compare prices for an RD135 Air Locker ...
