Outer Limits 4x4 Board

dont know about the JD, but my speedworx one does...just.

I had to build a stronger horseshoe and stronger retaining pin, as it was starting to stretch.

I didnt end up getting any made as quots for the mould (2 piece) were way more than i thought around (2.5K), and coppies would cost me $600 each. other places were not really interested. So i just chucked the origional on my county. New it was 1100 from Kar Craft, but it takes a while to get. Andy

Frontiers, Vehicross and some other Isuzu platform cars use a disconnect in the long front axle next to the diff to engage and disengage 4wd. They can be opperated with vaccume or compressed air (low preassure). I have one which i took to bits (will post photos up soon) and i am debating if the ...

A friend has had a miss-happ in on holidays in brisbane and bent his GU snake front arms. He asked me if any of you guys would give him a lend of some 4-6 degree castpr plates so he can finish his holiday, and return them when he gets back to sydney. He will need them for 2 weeks. If you can help ...

mogs or danas?

Extra event for next year.

Tractor pull.

Weigh the cars before, and put weight on the sled accordingly to be fair with the smaller rigs.

How much of a 3.9 do you want, i have a few. bottom end? long motor? complete turn key? What are you offering?

Well thats it folks, time to sell up all the rover shiat and start buying hand grenades. :rofl: I wondered how long it would take you blokes to get here. We go diving with a bloke in our 4x4 club who has a disco and it takes him about the same time to catch up with the rest of us. Come on fellas ...

Wasn't that the one that ended up in the harbour for a few days?































Just kidding. never seen it before.

Might be a bit early, but does anyone have a spare spot? Missed out last year. I'll join your club if needed. My car will be in outlaw class..........

Andy

Isuzu will cost big big $, unless you get lucky and find a cheap county or such. With turbo and tweaks etc it would be 10K+

tdi, your looking at similar for a rebuilt one.

do you mean pushrod? i think they are only like $7 new. The rocker isnt that much either. Give Karcraft a ring.

Andy

So the HID globe utilises a slide mechanism to cutoff the light from the bottom half of the reflector when on low beam then? Yep, via solonoid with a really strong magnetic return . Pretty trick. HID upgrades to low beam are definitely the go if you can do it without using a "shuttered" lamp. I ...

I was running + 50s and 90/130s but i got sick of replacing globes, i went through 1 every 6 months or so. Also i like to run the clear aftermarket lenses with the diffuser on the reflector, which gives you a cleaner light, this was being discoloured by the heat of the higher wattage globes. I have ...

Last i heard bushy was around $100 a light for a complete 55w HID conversion, how much cheaper do you want it?

ps cheap chinese bulbs are fine, ballasts are crap though.

Unless you know somethn that we dont

have a look at ebay us.

you can set one up for under 1k with the amount of ex stockcar/ nascar etc stuff going around.

Get Rid of that Lexus motor and go for a rover v8 and zf, it will bolt straight up to your LT230....

I hope its just somthing simple wrong with yours, have you found out any common failures?

If you decide to go for a zf give me a ring, i only have 4 laying around.......

its still waiting on motor bits i'm told.

Finally it arrived in Australia after ???? of waiting it turned up today!

Will start on the coppies as soon as possible.

Andy

I dont wave at anything with a 100 inch wheelbase. Their normally too busy eating cheese and drinking red wine.


(although, if its fairly modified and i might make an exception)


Andy

sorry v8 MG.

Street machine had a very nice black rover v8 powered mustang celica years ago.

if you are goung to cut/weld your housing, you may want a non cast cover, as you delete/move the lowest of the bolt holes.

Andy

yeah both 3.9s.

I've done the same as sam, but reccomend against it due to the stuff around. I also built my own diff cover out of 1/4 plate, with a 1/2" outer flange, but again i advise against it, unless you can do it at work on work time.............. If you want to know how much it saves, measure between the ...

I have a few good 2nd handies laying around. $40 plus postage (without fan) I'm wrecking 2 S1 v8s at the moment. You should also Already have twin thremo fans on the front of your ac condensor, you could wire these up with a manual bypass, so they come on when you want them to, not only when you ...

and they also used the odd 13b.



A bloke at work just finished one in his MG. Nice install. I will always remember someone i grew up with had one in their Nissan bluebird TRX, which was origionally installed when the car was bought new (1984).

A bit left field, but have you thought about using a FWD gearbox and diff connected to the commo v6? It would be way shorter. you would lose high range though....... Are you getting your inspiration from SERIOUS ONE on pirate? Every time i read about his car it makes me want an 80 inch. Andy ps you ...
