Outer Limits 4x4 Board

oh this isnt going to be cheap.

cheers for the info

After a nice new years rest in a delighful day spa down by a river under beautiful trees and pampering of finest kind by the likes of Jack, Spade, Bucket and nonoperationalwinch which culminated in the high point (almost deep enough to cover a 35inch tyre) of the gooiest mud bath one could imagine ...

8cfm. Damn.
The problem with electric is how expensive they are. $300+ just for the wrench and a battery, maybe a charger. And it cant pump or reseat tyres.
How would a 4cfm compressor with a 40 litre tank go? Down time between waiting for it to recharge?

Are internal beadlocks (second air type ones) alright as a softcore option? ive seen ads for them but no idea if they go alright and how much they cost

What power compressor and size tank would be needed to change four wheels (4 off then 4 on) without sitting around waiting for enough pressure.
and what torque rating for the gun would be needed?

Don't drive in mud?
I've notified the Nobel committee of your special brilliance.


Run higher pressures.
Mud in the bead is a part of wheeling in mud.
Maybe make sure the rim and bead are really clean next time you have to strip the tyres off and reseat it.
I was running 30psi, so im not sure ...

A couple of times ive got mud in between the bead and the rim which has then got under the bead resulting in a leak. Any ways to stop this from happening, some sort of deflector? Pressures have been high, nothing below 15psi.
Not wanting to get beadlocks yet.

Managed with a normal jack, a plank and a heavy log.

Cheers

Never done this before, how is it done?
I don't have any special debeading tools. hi-lift jack or a tyre shop. I can't fit a normal jack under the vehicle while on the tyre.
I've tried jumping on it, that didnt work.

Got a link, Im not having any luck finding it on Pirate.

LED lightbars seem to be very expensive and considering you can buy most of the parts for not much at all has anyone decided to make their own?
Anyone know how much custom heatsinks cost to make?

Slightly off topic, but how much hp do you think your clevo puts out?

Anyone know how much their bullbar weighs?
Or maybe a list of each commonly found bullbars and their weights?

How much would the average steel bullbar weigh?

Maybe I should just contact a lawyer and ask for a legal standing. :P

If you cant fit a winch plate by itself legally, how can you fit one simply because it comes with the bullbar.
How does a winch plate for a bullbar differ from a plate by itself?

And how much does the average steel bullbar ...

It has airbags.

The ADR's concerned, regardless of age of vehicle will be to do with "Protrusions".

If it is outside the bumper area it would not comply, but if everything was tucked in behind it will be ok.

What type of vehicle is it going on?

I dont think it will fit behind the bumper. It's a gu ...

Which model/year Landcruiser?

Well thats a nice bit of news. You wouldn't happen to have a link for the ADR compliance rules?

I'm wanting to get a winch but it seems I have to get a bar too which costs another load of cash and extra unwanted weight on the front and something I didnt really want.
So can I fit a winch using a mounting plate without the bar, and will it be legal? I couldn't find anything on Vicroads that ...
