Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Fark that's gonna be cold. Reckon we'll be there late tomorrow night, bailing work at lunch to pick up the new car trailer and fit the new beadlocks :armsup:

Look out for the two Rangies with the new white paintjob, it won't help us get further up the tracks but you'll be able to see us when we ...

Hey Mark any chance of putting up the individual scores?

Bump.

Mark can you please post up the date that scrutineering for the new rnd 1 date will be?

How strict is the rule on where the exhaust ends? Ours goes through a muffler and finishes about 10 inches before the diff. Wanna know if I need to get it extended or will it be okay?

Anyone got any pics of 60 Series high steer diff in an MQ? Or info on the best way to do it?

Good info Scott, thanks for that. That's essentially my plan, pulling the old blocks and going to the bolt place, but at the moment the Paj is my only transport while the motorbike awaits rego (or rather, while my bank balance prepares for rego).

By the sounds of it the rear bolts are longer than ...

Any chance anyone's got some info on factory body mount bolt lengths? Got some 40mm blocks ready to go in, and it'd just save time and running around if I didn't have to pull the bolts out first to get measurements.

Cheers Brendan

6G72, 330,000km on the clock. Went through half a dozen different oils trying to find a quiet one when I first got it until a mate suggested Fuchs 25W60, which he reckoned quieted down their old 6G72 Triton.

Difference is huge! Before it used to tick like a bastard, now when it's cold it'll tick ...

I'd try delicaclub.com for an answer.

Isn't the exclamation mark the handbrake light...

Don't think so mate. No-one 'round here uses winches, or eBay.

A bit off topic but anyone in Sydney got a standard rear bar they want to get rid of? Bout time to sell my Zook and just need to tidy it up a bit.

What sized tyres will this be running?

Make sure to keep us updated with pics...

As much as i hate to say it and will get flammed but make the event alchol free :bad-words: It would get rid of the f##k wits.

You know what, I thought about that on the way home and I reckon it wouldn't do a thing. You'd just have 2000 drunken gate crashers causing havoc next year. Sad to say ...

Nah Squiko doesn't work here anymore...

Cool will do thanks Squiko

Pretty good seeing as he's competing this weekend!!

As above, can anyone suggest someone who can make me a custom battery tray somewhere in Sydney this week? Prefer somewhere around Silverwater/West Ryde area.

Battery's big, don't have dimensions right now but it's a fair chunk longer than an N70. Tray just needs two legs coming off it and the ...

There's the Gen 1 shorty that's in TTC again this year on 44s

37s would need GQ axles for sure. Not an impossible job, it's been done, but fawkin involved.

Hate to sound like a dick, but if you have to ask, you probably can't do it yourself.

He's only joking about the 6in lift, it would make the vehicle absolutely undriveable on any type of cross slope and useless offroad.

Question is why do you want to body lift the vehicle? What size tyres are you going to run under it? With a 2in set of raised coils and the torsion bars cranked you ...

I guess it depends how long you're planning on keeping it? Obviously for a bit if you've reco'd the box. I guess if you do reco the engine, at least you're safe in the knowledge that it's not going to go pop again if you stay out of puddles!

For what it's worth I don't think there's a kit to put a ...

Good point there. What I meant to say was us normal people, plus the small contingent that enjoy air fresheners a little too much.

Silly question but 'general camping' means feral hill right? I.e. the ratbags are moving, and us normal people actually get a chance at a nice spot up the top under the trees?

If so great news.

Scott, does the handbrake adjustment need to be backed off? The handbrake's off, but that's my next though.


Allow me to answer this one.

Yes it does.

Case closed.

PS I really need a fawkin shed. Screw changing brakes in the street, in the rain :cry:

Hmm!

Try servicing rally cars in ...

Just came back in from trying to push the pistons in further with the bleed nut cracked. No go unfortunately, it's obvious they're in as far as they can go.

That said, I'm half wondering ...

As the title says - I've fitted new shoes to my 88 Pajero's rear end but for the life of me cannot get the drums back over them.

I've backed the adjuster right off as far as it'll go, but there's still a good 5mm of room I need to make to fit the drum on.

It's kind of like the pistons in the ...

The 3.0Ls are notorious for burning oil (rings shot) above 200, 250xxx km.

Whoa, talk about being behind the 8-ball! TRD have pulled out of Australia and taken their poxy 'Lux and Camry with them...

I'll be there, in the Zook if I can be arsed getting it sorted, if not then in the Paj'.
