Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi all, Has anyone looked at/seen or put in a single bucket seat in the rear of a 105 series std wagon ? I am looking to convert the wagon to be able to put a stretcher in the rear for emergency evacuation. My plan is to remove the rear bench seat and possibly the front passenger bench seat and ...

According to ARB, the only difference between series 1,2,3 & series 4 is the cut out in front of the grill. The cut out is larger on the series 4, due to the grill shape.
A series 4 bar will fit on an earlier model, but have a larger gap between the bar and the grill.

if you have an early GU with by pass filter then :

Z503 (full flow) 3/4" x 16 UNF
Z416 (dual flow) 1"x 12 UNF

I have looked into this as the seats in my GU are crap !
The SA authorities told me that as long as the seats/vehicle did not contain side curtain airbags I could fit whatever seats I liked, no engineering - nothing !

Not sure if all states take this position though ?

cheers

This is how I did it : http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll67/cookiem78/atrest.jpg http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll67/cookiem78/driversreardisconnected.jpg Works really well and if you play with the tension on the nut, you can set them to to be pulled out easily and replaced easily (as long as ...

Zook all back together now, front crank seal replaced, timing belt replaced, radiator hoses replaced, fuel filters replaced, tappets reset, timing adjusted and carbie cleaned out. Removed the choke plate and disconnected the spring from the choke shaft. Starts ok in the morning and definatly runs a ...

Thanks for your help guys, I now understand. It seams as though I have confused myself into believing that there is a problem, when there really isnt :!: I assumed that when the cam sprocket mark was inline with the cover mark, that the engine should be at TDC on #1 on the compression stroke. This ...

From your original post If i spin the crank 1 revolution, it will align the cam timing mark, but the engine will not be on TDC on #1 compression stroke. at camshaft 180 out of sync, It definitely appears to be ready for ignition on cylinder #1. Piston 4 is finishing the exhaust stroke, and beginning ...

The engine is set at TDC on #1 on the compression stroke (both valves are fully closed with correct valve clearance gap). The ignition rotor is pointing to #1 and the valves on #4 are rocking (ie exhaust closing/inlet opening). This is the position that the cam timing should be checked at. #1 is at ...

At the position the photo shows, the crank timing mark is aligned and everything is in the correct position apart from the cam sprocket marks. The engine had had a new head fitted before we got the car and it has never seamed to rev out, the cam timing was out approx 1 tooth when i checked before ...

Im replacing the front crank seal on the zook (G13A) and have a possible problem in that the camshaft timing sprocket is 180 degree's out of alignment when the engine is on TDC on #1 on the compression stroke. The distributor is pointing to #1, both inlet & exhaust valves have clearance (#1) and ...

Recently the zook has been running poorly, lacking power, wont pull over 80kmh, higher than normal fuel consumption, exhaust staining the garage floor black. Today I pulled the plugs out and they were ok for the gapping, but I think they were showing that the engine is running lean / timing out, as ...

All, Thanks for the requests for an update, so hear it is : Hailey is now learning to drive in the zook and doing very well. She has about 2 months to go until she can get her P's. The zook has had a few further enhancements, so that Hailey could take it off road for the first time. UHF & FM radio ...

I say go for the SAS ! I was in the same though pattern with my NL Paj, id put the locker in the front and done the suspension, long range tank etc and thought it would be my perfect car if it had a solid front axle. In my head the budget was $5-10k and I could live with that for the unique vehicle ...

Hi all, Been a member of outers for a number of years, but only just come over to the Nissan forum after selling my 99 TD Pajero a couple of months back and buying a 99 4.2td GU Patrol. Its totally standard (apart from the roofrack that I grafted on from the Paj), so is a clean canvas to work with ...

I had the 2.8 td and put a 2.5" exhaust from the turbo back, with a single straight through muffler.
Transformed the car !
Enables the turbo to spool up quicker, much better low down torque and pulled hard from 1500rpm. I had the pump timing and fuelling checked after its fitment.

The MTQ ones measure 2 1/4 inch internal, and when we do patrol power upgrades we are consitantly 10-15kw more for what we do at the wheels that the other local shops who use bolt on [we all use the same dyno] than tiapan, BD or MTQ systems. We have our own plates laser cut, and make our own dump ...

All, Just thought id let you know that I have sold my trusty 2.8td Paj and am now the owner of a 99 Patrol 4.2td. Not sure if I have made the right move yet, but it means I have some accessories for sale. Check out the for sale section for more details. I hope the Patrol will be as reliable and fun ...

Firstly, welcome to Outer Limits and congrats on buying a Paj. The oil pressure gauge problem is a common one ! Its probably the sender unit mounted to the side of the block under the intercooler(RHS). Most people encounter this problem. Mine no longer works so I am going to buy the std oil pressure ...

If it went in a mag it would be Overlander. I used to do some writing for them about a year or so ago, so I would contact them again.

I have thought about it, but just at the minute, im flat out at work and home.

Ill keep you all posted though when I get around to it !

All, Appologies for the delay in responding, but with holidays and painting............! Anyway, the initial mark for the project was very good. 5/5 in one area and 6/7 in the second area. These were overall marks and we wont find out the detailed marks for another month or so :? On the badge ...

Had the Tough Dog 2" lift 'comfort' spec coils fitted a couple of years back, along with their 41mm foam cell shocks. Car rode nice and comfy with good flex at first, but since adding the rear drawer system and now the long range tank, it feel very spongy and soggy. There seams to be reduced ...

how much would it cost to get that done? i would love to get something similar made for my car.

Ive sent my mate an e-mail, will let you all know his pricing when he gets back to me.

Ok, getting to the end of the build now. One thing I wanted to do for Hailey was to make a new badge for the front grill. The Suzuki badge was missing, so I thought id make up an aluminium badge, the same as the COOKI stickers. Hailey had already taken the dimensions of the rear door sticker, so i ...

First up... awesome job, a big armsup to the Cookie Monster Crew :armsup:. Fantastic to see the girls giving it a go, congrats Hayley... a big step forward for the chickies :cool: Quick question... I'm doing a drop-down table in the Jimny as well, where did you get those stretchy toggles from ...

They were spare ones he had lying around. Hailey had to bribe him with a bottle of wine as well !

"I have to ask why? Looked better with the camo all the way round. Was it cause of the dent? " Originally we planned on using the chequer plate corners, so didnt worry about fixing the dent ! When it was painted the house was divided as to how they looked on the camo. Linda was dead against them, i ...
