Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hello,

When I engage or disengage the clutch there is a loud thud. Its as if the clutch is either engaged or disengaged ie there is no slip.
Happens in all gears but only on the upshift. Its gets worse the higher in the rev range that you shift.
The clutch was replaced with a Safari HD approx 50 ...

I Had a nail go through one of my STT's kinda on the corner of the tread where the side wall meets the tread. Small hole easy to fix NOT!
Tyre guys ( I took it to two cause I didn't believe the first guy) could not repair it because of the new fandangled cross ply. Apparently it moves as the tyre ...

Unlikely the winch will fit to ARB bullbar as they stick out an awful long way. Mine has a bull bar and the winch is behind it but the bar sits almost 400mm from the bonnet. I imagine you could adapt a bar to suit maybe with some infills back to the chasis but doubt you will find a bolt on one ...

Try $700 a side (YES A SIDE) for genuine free wheeling hubs. Even the nissan dude was surprised or at least seemed to be.

AVM $220.00 a set

Guess what my trucks wearing

AVM isnt as strong as geniune..

ive blown up aftermarket hubs before and the geniune ones are harder to break.

ill back ...

i had the same problem a while back, I found the leak at the slave cylinder and replaced that as a unit $40.00 from repco. Literally a 5 min job. Ended up replacing the master as well $135.00

So easy the fix when i finally got around to it. I went through about 1ltr clutch fluid first though.

Thanks for that. Exactly right, works perfectly

Tooooooooo easy

Upon further reseach this ring i am talking about appears to be the clutch for the auto locking hubs. Is there another part i need to purchase or just remove this and bolt the new hubs on?

Hi Guys, I am trying to replace the auto locking hubs with AVM ones
They don't quite butt up. There is a solid metal ring about 2 inches in diameter in the way. It appears to be held on by a circlip and possibly another clip which i don't recognise. Is it part of the original auto hubs?
Can i safely ...

Geez you guys are talkin some low pressures! Specilally for a Zook Whats the sand made out of down there!

Where is wedge point? Is it even down....

check tierod ends and other sources of movement in the steering

Ok Checked the tie rod ends and couln't see any up/down movement but could feel a definate clunk with hand around tie rod with the wheel being moved from side to side. Does this clunk mean replace. The rubber boots are also split ...

Hi folks, I have the dreaded (by me) knock under the floor pan. This started a while back and is getting louder. it is also worse when wet (definately body mounts right?)

I recently fitted 33" Mtrs which rub on the inside of the rear guard under full flex and twist and am thinking if I have to ...

I would describe the steering more as vague rather than tram traking

If I were to turn the wheel going into a bend (say a slight bend) what i would normally expect to be the correct amount, the car may not move at all. So slightly more wheel would then be applied until the car turns in ...

TJm XGS do a shock for 3" lift. I just replaced mine
The part number is 650XGS12541 I paid $145 ea

Ok I will try that. I used to run the AT's at 32psi but they wore funny
Thanks


I did change the rims. I went from 7's to 8's If its the rims is there a fix?

I checked the tyre pressures after they where fitted. Pressures ranged from 40 PSI to 48 PSI Good old tyre shops aye
Am now running them at 36 PSI all round and dropping the pressure did help a little.

The steering damper was replaced approximately 6 months ago with an Old man emu but its not a ...

Gidday all, I have just fitted 33x12.5x15 MTR,s to my 88 GQ LWB and the handling s pretty crap compared to the 31 inch AT I had on.
I expected some degradation but this seems a bit excessive.
The car tracks along ridges on the road and bumps throw it off line. Is this normal for the more agressive ...
