Outer Limits 4x4 Board

possabilities are endless. how much modifying you want o do and how much you got to spend. anything is possible.

jamies right
but if you are going to attempt this remeber if you get even the smallest bit of dirt or grit in there your going to cause yourself all sorts of dramas too

its not a fun job. i did it on an mq swb swapped 2 cabs around and thinking of mabey doing it to my gq lwb too. id prob start by removing as much interiour as you can all seats carpets and trims you want to swap remove all your doors and panels bonnets guards etc to make the cab as light as possible ...

its just a pity that the mmf boys were supposed to be third though due to a stuff up with the points and a certain rock buggy making the finals by default though.
good weekend though.
matt.

well stop talking about it and do it

stop wasting time and just put it in your god damn car and drive it. mine full conversion took 3 weeks....clocks ticking mate

time for a ute cab or a new wagon cab to cut into an extra. i cant quite understand it. the handbrake was still on solidwhen it was at the bottom and still holds when the tuck was on a hill later in the da with the car trailer and a hilux on it.
the damage isnt good. upper and lower radiator ...

yeah great weekend. mates did ok in the rockcrawling no breakages sank lotsa piss and had a ball til this morn when for no aparent reason after being parked for over 10 mins my patrol decided to roll down a hill and hit possibly the llargest rock in the park and destroy the entire front end. i hate ...

were is the air filter box?

so did anyone else go to the bp at stayplton after the run?
i had pull;ed in and just started pumping my tyres when a not to happy police officerpulled up behind me and started on me.

He went off bout my underbody and rear lights my tail lense i broke last night the overall height of the vehical ...

on the topic of fing a gq for 5k that dosent need money spent on it............is there ever gonna be a day when we dont have to spend money on any 4wd weather it be mods or repairs?

anyone ever had the bottom end were out o there td42?
mine has 352000 clicks and while warming it up i was finishing a few bits under the bonnet and noticed a faint big end knock that dosnt go away and gets progrssivly worse through the rev range. it sounds like a # 2 big end. it has good oil ...

i wanted to finish..........its just wasnt gonna happen for me but unfortunately
better luck next time i guess.....

awsome run dudes. i was a little annoyed with myself but a cp2 were i went for bonus points and hugged a tree a little too close approching that drop off but hey i didnt need that door anyway. looking at the bend and dent in it im still not real sure why the glass didnt shatter either. then there ...

i will be there. ive done a run simalar to this before its good fun

sounds like possible dodgey rad cap.
not pressureising system

dammit. im going to cruiser for the all terrain challenge

likewise
great night and pics? i saw a guy taking pics on one of the hill climbs when i was backing down
results would be good too
cheers
matt

nice one mate
good luck with it. its not the most pleasnt job to be doing a first time let alone twice
matt

although you had a co2 test done and ised a non genuine gasket and it still over heated i noticed there was no mention of replacing the radiator cap?
a faulty radiator cap will lower the system pressure and thus cause oiverheating.
just my 2c anyways
matt.

much appreciated
cheers dude
matt

any info would be appreciated guys. on a td42 were is the tacho sender located? mine is a dx so i assume its not fitted from factory and id like to get a sender and rig one up. so any info about this ie were there located how they work etc woul be great.
thanks guys
matt.

not sure of were you sould source springs down south there. if you were in queensland i think from memory a mate got dobinon springs and some efs shocks for his patrol for about 500 bucks new. you may be able to frieght it but id say i would be easier to source down there.
ever sonsidered a body ...

nive ride mate. thats the first safari wagon ive seen that is a low roof. ive only ever seen the hugh roof ones and i dont really rate the look.
its also the first ive seen without the pto winch.
good luck with it mate.
matt

sounds like a machine
pics would be good if anyone could get some

so the new power plants going in soon chris?

cheers bro

it definatly sounds like a throwout bearing. and spigot bearing wouldnt be a bad idea to replace that either. im dredding the day mine needs to be done. there a huge box (td42). i did a clutch on an 8 last weeka nd that was bad enough. but i spose if we want to play these games we just have to wear ...
