Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Lol,

On topic,

Dang! Good luck finding and paying for bypasses with 20+ inches of travel ;)
I'd say that ultimately your travel will be limited by the CV-angles of your setup.

Nah only going to run 18s. But you can get em up to like 30" now I think I saw the other day

Agreed on CV angles ...

Even then the ls7 isn't a true dry sump.

There's a recent thread on Pirate that's pretty good on this topic.

1. Had a $100 GPS laying around that runs WinCE like most do.
2. Mod the boot process to load a file explorer instead of the street nav.
3. Add OziExplorer and purchase license key.
4. Buy or add other maps as required.

The off the shelf units are good products but if you are tech savvy you can ...

I thought a D60 was 9.75 and a D70 was 10.5.

That said, a Jana76 kit will fit a D70 crownwheel into a D60 housing with some trimming so there is plenty of room there.

It's interesting to hear from the guys with them both there as I would have been wrong if I was guessing.

They're all different boxes. They are approximately equal in strength internally but none are bolt in replacements from what I know.

Rocky's had factory panhards, some of the bigger American trucks are the same.

If you end up closer to a 33 then consider a 285/75 as well.

that pump shows 317gallon/hr, or 20L/min. is this too slow?

Is 80L/min too fast?

Interested to see the tech people add to the thread. I guess it depends on the rest of the system as Heath says.

I think mine is a Lokka (not 100% sure though, bought it 2nd hand in the centre).

It drives exactly like you describe your Lockright Sim. I rarely notice it's there, it doesn't effect the steering and it's smooth in it's action. The only time it has gotten me in trouble is trying to make tight ...

If it's vibration you're having trouble with, your new uppers will need to be shorter than the old ones were (if the new lowers are the same length as the old ones)

Don't know the full list but Russell tells me he and Rod ended up in front.

Red 40 series.

Dave,

What time is the kickoff for the first SS on Saturday morning? We'll be heading down to spectate for the day.

I thought it was wrecked out as well. Have seen pictures of the cab elsewhere anyway.

An engine swap will be required as I doubt you'll fit a straight 6 into the engine bay.

I see the problem has been solved already but this might help for future searches.

The fast idle/idle up gear on the front of the carby can jam up or end up out of adjustment causing idle speed issues. I've had 2 older carbs do this and it'll sit the idle between 1500-2000rpm.

If the panhard bushes are good, everything else is within spec and the castor is right, then it shouldn't need a steering dampner at all.

An early post of yours says 5in lift. What castor correction are you running?

If it's only under power at certain speeds then check uni joints. If it's only ...

I run Superior drop boxes with a 3in lift. Drives better than stock. Same with panhards. just adjust them if you need to.

Do you have a VL commodore ECU or an R31 Skyline ECU? Auto or manual ECU? VL wiring loom has more body electrics in than the more separate R31 engine harness.

There are differences in fuel pump control in the ECU between Nissan and Holden. You'll need a new fuel pump either way.

It'll run, but you ...

Excellent tech guys. Great reading.

I have some questions re:turbo matching to petrol motors in 4x4 applications but I won't sidetrack this thread with them.

x2.

The rear axles will have to be a fair way apart to run short shafts from the transfer case to each axle?

I have one of these sets as well. Cheapo set from Super Cheap I think.

If I was using them weekly, even monthly, I'd upgrade.

I use mine maybe once every 3-6 months, they're not ideal but they work.

I think the LS1 is for a hilux, (from another thread)

Also whats the go with having to have the pan-hard rod on the same angle as the drag-link?

If there's much difference in angle then you'll get bump steer. During travel the axle swings in an arc determined by the panhard. If it's a different arc to the drag link, it'll add it's own input into the ...

Good win guys

There's been more than one GQ on here that has had 80s coils fitted. Standard 80s coils give 2in lift in a GQ, 2in 80s coils give 4in lift etc.

Really need to know all of the turbo specs to be able to comment for sure. Don't want to send you down the wrong track. What else is in your setup? What's controlling the show? What's the timing map like, particularly below 3500rpm?

What psi is it making at 2500rpm if it's making 16psi by 3500 ...

Both on the same truck won't work. Probably easier to redesign the front end. I see you already have SF arms from your build thread.

I'm guessing that you want more out of the front? The roll resistance of the front end is so much higher than the back it doesn't do anything until the rear reaches ...

A pretty amazing gallery of hi-res pics has been added to Pirate. http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=956360

If you haven't seen it you should, but be aware that the 300+ pics will eat data

What's the story for 2011? Haven't seen much discussion on here yet.

3 months out.

Time zone fail. First car at 2am QLD time.

ps. Please bring back a container full of BFG reds thanks Tony. Cool
