Outer Limits 4x4 Board

i after careful study i've done on the weekend - simply starring at idler arm i've realized it's there only to make drag link paralled to tie rod. i'll be ordering a custom hy-steer arm at some local metall factory so i'll have steering simillar to gq.
cheers.

hello. i am little bit confused with this idler arm used on mq/mk. may i have a tie rod coming from pitman arm to drag link? just like it's done on gq or toyota? may i eliminate this idler arm from my steering?
is that bad or it's ok for daily driver? i have mk lwb with stock suspension with 31 ...

I had to re-do slightly my MK frame and I had to move my frame's front cross member, where the idler arm bolts on. Now I'd like to re-do my steering on my MK similar to GQ (no idler arm).
Can I do the following: leave MK stock tie-rod, then have a custom made drag link that will go from the tie-rod ...

screwy, thanks for the reply.

may be it will be easier to cut off L28 motor/tranny mounts and weld 'em on clean Diesel's frame?
i had to fabricate ...

Hello. Please exuse me for a dumb question. Here is what I my mattes are planning to do: we've got running '85 SWB 33SD 5spd. Patrol with expired title and running '84 SWB L28 4spd. rusty body with good title/docs.

Here is a plan: to take out Diesel with transmission and x-case and use it on a ...

Original hubs seem to be the best option but they are the most expensive ones. Same thing with my matte's Toyota - AISIN hubs considered to be the best (Toy original), then WARN Premiums. I don't like AVM hubs - their dial is made out of plastic.
I will try to look up used original hubs then in ...

G'day.
I spent some time looking in the US on-line shops manual locking hubs for my 160 MK. It used to have automatic hubs but I bought axle without hubs from a junk/salvage yard.
I was able to find that SuperWinch, AVM and MileMarker make hubs for Patrol 160.
What would be my best choice? I was ...

I've got 160 MQ/MK LWB frame, axles 4.375 (rear with LSD - will check axles part numbers soon), 4 spd. transmissiona and x-case out of 160 SWB with L28. I bought everything from a friend, who parted out his Patrol. I ...

I am planning to put my D21 body over the 160 LWB frame. Does anyone have or can tell me where I can get 160 ...
