Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi i was wondering if anyone knew who the guy that had the series landrovers for sale around the brisbane/sunnie coast area was? Just trying to find if he still had them.


Cheers
Andrew

You guys have been pretty spot on with every thing but did anyone else notice that in the photos from the wandin 4wd show that the flex shot showed a very stretched brake line on the front? Absolute beast you need to attach a sound file so those of us that cant hear it can have a listen to how sweet ...

i have found that the Max Ellerys to be quite good, they have good tech descriptions and if you need to pull something down to rebuild it, it is in pretty good detail. you can get them from super cheap

andrew

i have got the problem fixed, the lights that were coming on all earthed throught the alternator, took the alternator out and gave it to an auto elec, what happened is that the guy that did it before i bought it didnt line the brushes up properly and its worn the bushes down uneven and werent making ...

how much have you guys paid to get a reco alternator, i was in at autobarn the other day and out of curisoity (you know the thing that killed the cat) and they said that i am looking at 800-900 dollars!!!! that seems a little bit rude, so any ideas on what you guys have paid would be good

Andrew

the problem that i have is that i bought the car about 8mths ago and the fella that i bought it off said that it was a new/reco alternater, and i cant get hold of the guy to find out where it was done. I have tested and replaced the regulater because it was showing faults but that didnt fix the ...

Hi i was wondering if anyone else had this problem, my alternator is not charging and the timing belt light, fuel contaminant light and the alt light are coming on. I it for a dual cab hilux 2.8 D. If anyone has had any similar problem and its an easy fix than I would love to know cause i cant ...

I have found that most of the places that do the turbos professionaly (ie turboglide) use the T25 turbo, and i have found that the turbo's of the 180sx are about the same, I am in the process of trying to find one to do myself

cheers
andrew

what sort of prices did you guys pay, and where did you get them from

I know there has been some threads about how to turbo a lux, but what sort of turbo's are used to do the job? I have seen garret T25 and a couple of others, just after some input on what is used

Cheers
Andrew

thanks for the input, my bro is getting his zook inspected by an engineer today so i will get him to ask him about the poly blocks.

i was going to do both the cab and the tray but i am also thinking about ditching the style side and making up a flat bed.

I have enough material for only 5 but if i can get one more it might just be the cab being lifted

Andrew

Have you guys seen those hard plastic ones?? I have some of this stuff at work that i can use (so its the right price) but do you reckon that it'll be good enough?

i know that this has been talked about but i am stuffed if i can find the link to it. How many body blocks do i need for a dual cab lux, i thought that i read 12 some where but i wouldn't bet the farm on it.

Andrew

thanks for the help well have a look today and see if that does the trick

andrew

A mate replaced his head, injection pump and injectors and now the tacho doesnt work are there any ideas on what it could be. He thought that it ran from the injection pump but he cant find the pick-up.
Its a TD 42 non-turbo

any ideas
Andrew

yeah gav i was told 960 delivered to my door with greasable shackles and pins thrown in which didnt seem to bad but as you say the ride quality is really something to think about and they do need to give some sort of flex

andrew

thanks for the info gavinc from someone that has it its good to hear what they go like. I'm thinking i will go the OME dakars gets some 2" greasable shackles and some good shocks, that should last me a while. and as my name says (4x4family) it should go good when i get a trip to the cape organised ...

Bear where is your sister in law? I'm in townsville and would be interested to have a chat to her about them.
The guy from ironman said there was a 12mth unconditional warranty on the springs, whatever that means to them is yet to be established

Drew

I was looking at terrain tamers but they looked just a little to cheap. The OME dakars are supposed to be better than the straight OME, made to the same specs but ofshore. They even have sleaves where the bushes go which the other dont. But the service that i am getting at ARB where i am is pretty ...

I finally have the money to get my new suspension for my dual cab luxbut am unsure of which way to go. At the moment i am looking at ARB and the seem alright (have the name going for them) and a couple of others but has any one had anything to do with Ironman suspension, he is willing to do a pretty ...

i have a 91 DC with skinnies that ar the same as 32" and they have no worries with stiock suspension so with a 2" suspension it shouldn't to much trouble. MTC but try it and if they dont fit than worry about it you may be suprised

andrew

Hi all I was wondering, I'm going to upgrade my sealed beams on my d/cab lux with the non-sealed type. what is the best option, go through a mob like hella or what. Just wondering what others have done

Andrew

thanks heaps for all the help this will give me and my mate a heap to go through.
At the moment he wants to try and get a manual (i'm trying to convince him otherwise, auto's seem easier to get)

thanks
Andrew

Hi all I am trying to help a friend out with some info about swaping the standard 4 speed for something better (ie so it wont rev its tits out at 100km/h)
Has any one done a conversion or can lead me in the right direction

Thanks

Andrew

What is the big diff between the ARB and the Redarc, I've read on a couple of forums the bagging of each but what is the actuall difference, from somebody that knows about them
