Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Theres one down my way for sale, similar but sprung over on 37s. He had it advertised for around 12k a few months ago, its down to 8.5k now and its still not gone.

Sideshow & Rod, I'm only getting 29ltrs/100km on gas and 25lts/100km on petrol and I think the car is properly tuned. I was wondering how your vehicles are setup compared to mine so I can make a true comparison. I've got 32inch mongrels, 2inch sus, 1inch body, roof rack & its an auto. Cheers MEX ...

i got 5km per ltr when on petrol, Im now running straight gas and get about the same 400km out of 80ltrs running 35s. in a 90 carbied shorty.

if your going to get rid of one you might as well get rid of both

From the look of those pics looks like it will be an awsome event. Will be there with a few mates in tow.

I had a outback draw system out of a longy in my shorty to travel around oz, did the job great. you can pick em up pretty cheap second hand

yes it is lockless not sure who was driving it but it wasnt tony or sam

couple more

Here is a couple of pics i got.

Had an awesome day wish i was there today

I thought that was pretty much how the rules were now

So if these new rules come in nothing over 2 inch will be able to get an engineers certificate?


Eg:90 GQ 2" body, 4" coils and 35s

No phone service at last tuff truck, but that could have changed.

Thanks Mark,

Not actually after lift as i have 4" coils in just after something to stop the constant metal on metal squeek

$8?

$31.45 x 4 = $125.80

Just wondering if anyone has tried using something other than a genuine Nissan spring rubber as a substitute. Nissan want to charge me $31.45 a piece x 4 = rip off!

Thanks,
Pete

I did this and they still said i had to buy the whole bar

Nissan dealers in my area reckon they can not get them. Have to buy complete rod

can anyone tell me if a hi-steer setup reduces the infamous gq wobble, my mate has a lwb with a bad one and is looking at getting dropdown brackets but is also interested in the hi-steer if it does.

Thanks
Pete

Nice site Guys

Yea Thunder that was the shorty that nearly went, he was lucky not to go over. looked like he hit something that stopped him going over from where we were, on the wrong side to see.

few more pics

Had a great day out at woodpecker, plenty to watch. got a couple of pics and some nice video footage. did anyone get any pics of the GQ shorty that nearly rolled down sphincter rock, i only got it on video

take it to a 4wd shop they will tell you what degrees castor bushes they are, if its not lifted the are probably 0 degree. I picked up the lift kit for $700 second hand, but i woulnt buy second hand shocks again the back ones were shot. I think you can pick up springs for around $400 and i paid $200 ...

You add the pic though you profile edit where it says upload aviator

I put the kit in with a couple of mates , they are dobinson springs and rancho adjustable shocks. I had a 4wd shop put in 3 degrees castor bushes cost around $200. extended brake lines came with the kit but ive seen GQs with just brackets made up to lift the break line off the diff. it cost about ...

I have got 4 inch lift in the shorty now, all ive done is dropped the gearbox cross member. I still have a little bit of vibration but its bearable the only other thing i did was get laminated trailing arms, a mate snaped his on a lwb and it made a hell of a mess.
