Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I keep forgetting lcool is a walled garden and isn't indexed in Google!

Checking them out now. Not much i ih8mud either. In touch with a few rebuild places in brisbane waiting on replies.

Seal kits are cheap. $2k for just the rack, fark that

Looking for advice on a leaky 100 IFS series steering rack. It's leaking about 5 drips a day. All of the regular mechanics are wanting to just replace it, but at $2k for the part or $1200 for a copy, I am hesitant. What are they like to have rebuilt? It's just a piston with some seals right? Anyone ...

$1427 for a pair from Toyota.

$500 for a pair from 4wdparts. (12mth warranty)

$300 pair on ebay.

I am considering these (4wdparts.com.au)

Anyone have any feedback or don't give a shit because IFS is for women ?

I am looking for feedback on aftermarket CV's for the HDJ100r.

Large range in prices. Would assume the same for quality. Would like your feedback on what you have used and experiences.


Thanks

Do thermo's infront of the radiator fit?

Or would it be better to remove the fan and just run twin thermo fans?

With a turbo'd engine, is the stock radiator adequate?

Sounds the same as mine.

Creeps upto the H on the stock gauge when towing camper at 100.

I won't be touch anything until I get a few gauges installed.

Now, what is a safe operating water temp?

Yep, gas is off when starting, then on.

Will check the clearances - Thanks for the replies.

Hey guys, I just got a Turbo/Gas TD42 and have a question in regards to a cold startup and oil pressure. When she is cold, you can really hear the tappets/valve assembly rattling about. After a couple of kilometers the noise dies down and she sounds perfect. Oil level is fine. Q. Is this a normal ...

would you need a mod plate in QLD upgrading to a dual pot caliper?

Any guidelines on what to pay for 2 calipers from a wrecker?

Hey guys

Just put up a wanted parts post as I am chasing 60 parts. http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/sutra1532226.php#1532226

Anyone wrecking a 60 in Brisbane? Need the front left headlight and indicator.


Cheers

I snapped the bolts and retaining pins which bolt the axel to the rear right wheel hub. Should I...

Get a 2nd hand hub

or

Fix the current ($180 to drill out the pins, bolts have been done)

Anyone got a right rear hub lying around ?

Not sure if any of you have been part of a group buy from overseas before. Shipping over xmas is just silly. Expecting it on time is insane. Actually getting what you asked for is a miracle! Just pray customs don't quarantine your shit because something else in the container it is with has some ...

Cheers for that insight mate.

I think I should take 3 of my fat mates with me when I test drive one.

Got a 60 cruiser now, great machine, shithouse in traffic :(

Had a 55 and a 89 hilux on gas (dualcab), the hilux was good. I want something inbetween a hilux and vitara/jimny

Hi guys, I have had a few 4wd's and am looking to get something that is ecconomical and capable. I have nfi on zooks but they look to be the goods! Just wondering if the Jimny 1.3 would be able to tow a box trailer, 2 adults and 2 kids on sand? Am I expecting too much? 85% of the time it will be my ...

I'm with dibbz Loaded it up with 3 guys and enough piss for a week plus a 400kg boat/trailer behind it drove better on the highway than no load. It is how you drive it, flat out down hills and the momentum takes you up the hills better than if you stick to the speed limit and I found much better ...

well put goannaoffroad

anyone rebuilt a 2f with lower compression to handle a turbo ?

<hijack> I am close to doing the same thing as dybles, 290k 2h about to get 8-12 psi. Now, I am thinking is it worth getting a compression test, once again with diesels it costs a fortune - but would this tell me if I should continue or not ? If a 2nd hand v8 60 came along I would buy it and swap ...

dybes,

get a donor 60 series

wow, i only just remember you talking about putting that turbo on, bad luck!

mines at 290k and I have 90% of the bits to complete my turbo conversion.

What psi were you running?

go with whatever you budget says :) 5L injected holden with some small mods will hammer and still be cheaper than the 2uz. repair costs favor the holden. Chev is great as parts are everywhere, but injection will set you back. What is your aim? 13 sec quarters or just more balls than yer diesel mates ...

makes perfect sense. Flow oil while the turbo cools down, especialy if you have a shitty sleeve bearing turbo.

or spend $50 on an in-cabin boost controller.

pyro, boost nob, boost gauge

Thanks guys!

the flanges look like non standard garret bits, rather patrol factory flanges (once again only from what I have seen on the net)

Looks like I have hit the wall with this turbine and it's variable vane setup!

If you did lock it open, that would lower the available boost?

Foodie

simply, I don't know jack about turbo's.

its a 4L motor and this is from a 3L - has a much smaller inlet and outlet than the current stuffed turbo but the housings are roughly the same size.

Anyone got some pointers on what to look for that would suit a 4L 2H ?

Looking for 8-12 psi.

Thanks!

Hey guys,

picked up a good manifold and 3inch exhaust with a busted turbo attached. Also scored a m24 garrett turbo off a 3l patrol.

Should I bother putting the 3l m24 turbo onto my 2h toyota or am I wasting my time?

I am wishing to get upto 12psi out of this thing.

Cheers,
Foodie

60 gear in the 55 - tough

Get a real gauge dibbz!

<hijack>


How much boost do you guys run on yer 2h - I am considering a v8 or turbo but it all depends on how dibbz's truck goes - I like the turbo he has but I want more grunt than the 8psi it's running at.

What would you run a 300k 2H at?

</hijack>

Yer buy my 55

Mine was getting way to extreme, selling it.
