Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I also explained to you the fact that the owner of this vehicle complained to me a couple of times via telephone that his engine had used oil. He confirmed (also via telephone) that the vehicle definately didnt blow any excessive smoke of ANY colour and that it was not leaking externally. He also ...

I like the way Ray is ready to flame someone yet if you buy an engine off one of his mates and call him to find out what condition it is in he will lie to you...well either lie or he really knows nothing. My surfs problems all started when I put in a motor that I bought from one of his mates that ...

There is only one solution


BURN THE F*CKER!

holy hell!

Scott cant you just keep the car registered in Qld? lmao
I have recently moved to SA also and am too scared to even ask about getting my surf registered here now!

Its gonna end up cheaper trading it in on another car and just modding it up again

yeah Andrew well I prolly coulda bought a surf for every day of the week with the amount ive spent on it lol... Im just glad shes actually sounding like a diesel again

I rang Ballarat Offroad this morning and they are refunding me the money for the pump rebuild and also for the new pump

Some of you will remember my sagas for the past 18 months.....well perserverence has paid off. even though I had the injector pump rebuilt (nearly 2k) I bought a brand new one for $340 and a couple of surf people from NSW came and put it in for me on the weekend and well, shes like a new car now ...

haha we were just trying to get away from the pesky mods.....oh hell I forgot ur both mods!

yeah ur right snipe, mine didnt vibrate when i did the diff each time, just the uni.

it just whined like a man after sex

well snipe I would just swap cars with ya, but I would prefer a sexy red surf that dont go real good than one that falls apart everytime you go over a bump lmao

Damn Dan, I dunno bout your problem, but when my rear diff went (twice and its on its way out again) it did vibrate a bit and made a loud whirring sound around 80 ks and then once getting to 100ks it stops. Another time it vibrated without the whirring and turned out it was the uni, but u checked ...

Nah its still a living nightmare lmao I tried something someone on here suggested to no avail :cry: Im too busy looking at houses at the moment, just sold mine cos I need more money to find my surfs problem :P , so put the surf on the backburner til I find somewhere to live....but still welcome for ...

I got a Surf and intend to keep it for a looooooooooooonnnnnnnnng time. You just need to find a good one. Nev I had a good surf for 3 years! something just went haywire lol Anyway I will get to the bottom of my problems, it may take another year or two, but I will find it!!!!! Im going down another ...

ohhhh yeah great fun! I will put it to them, but have to wait for the assessor I was dealing with to come back from hols. plowy I did the stall test thing this morning and it went to just over 1500 revs. This is what its like, I went for a play in Wombat last week with a friend and had to snatch him ...

Thanks for all your replies, thanks for answering dingo

Dave have sent you an email, will try the thing Mike is making for me.

Andrew, thats what it does feel like, as if it is taking off in second but how is that fixed and why didnt they pick that up and fix it when they rebuilt it?

thanks for replying for me dingo Rob shhh I love my car I aint blowing her up. Brad I never have the handbrake on ever. I can get the brakes checked, but I did just get all the brakes done not long ago including the master cylinder. cruzer, I dont know if its electronically controlled or has a ...

impose everyone told me to put a v6 in it but I didnt think I could afford it at the time lmao If I knew all this sh!t was gonna happen I woulda done it! andrew yep if I am still moving it goes okay. Its only from a standstill that it does it. lol no if its downhill, it goes better cos its rolling ...

I'm assuming it's a 2L-TE motor? it was, I dunno what to call it now? I guess its still a 2L-TE. The block was from a 2LT-LL. Questions/things to try... 1. You say no power when starting, but OK once it's moving. If you get it moving, drving OK, and then slow it to ALMOST a stop, will it then take ...

Thanks for your replies but that aint the answer I am after haha Im with slosh, I have spent a fortune on this car, I aint about to give her away. Ballarat offroad did admit defeat after 6 months of 'sharing her' with me. They had her 2 or 3 days a week, I had her 2 or 3 days a week. They have been ...

I need help and I need help bad. I hope someone on here can help me and my poor surf. The problem I have is it has no power on take off. The first initial 5-7 seconds it just rolls, if I am lucky, then once it goes it goes fine. I will give a rundown of what has happened over the past 12 months and ...

and yes I do realise it is all just a dream right now until his wife wins the lottery

yea well Im not gonna let him get away with sucking some other poor person in to work on his car and him not paying up

surf front cuts are no where near 5 grand

but if you are gonna ask someone else to do it, make sure you have the money this time

lol

I showed him the pm.....

He is measuring and counting bolts tonight

You wont be disappointed if you get one. Go to the surf site that RV posted. They have their problems, as do all cars, but offroad they are just as capable as any (Im sure some will argue with me here haha) I have had mine for 3 years now and been going offroad with people off the surf site for 6 ...

haha i know someone that has mickey thompson baja claws 35 inch on their surf left on all the time, it looks like a real beast.
Dont think I would go that far

As I mentioned, I borrowed a set of coopers st and went for a play in Gembrook. I didnt find them too bad and I felt a lot more confident having them on as when we went it was pretty muddy and lotsa fun! I did find tho that there was one place I lost traction all together and almost ended up over a ...

a body lift isnt expensive

I paid $100 for the blocks and $10 for the bolts (I got the bolts cheap tho) Some friends helped me do it, cost $110 all up. Took under 2 hrs to do the lift.

Michelle

I will let you know when I get the suspension done, been quoted $600 for OME, so if you can get better let me know (thats all round and fitted) Slosh as I said up there somewhere ...
