Outer Limits 4x4 Board

yeah could pull it back to 3rd but at a hundy that is about 3 and a half and the old 3f starts to run out of steam about then.
It has some serious cooling tho. one in the rad and 2 external

Mine has 200000 and the old man's has 300000 and havent had any troubles but didnt realise they werent steel untill I replaced the timing cover gasket and found the fiber gears. they were trouble in holdens but the japs may have got it right

holry fark guess I am gettig a good run out of them. I will stop bitchen. They reakon I run it flat but I had only checked them 20 mins prior to bang

Oh well I was going to re-co them whilst out so I will adjust them accordingly

They so far seem alright to me. Apart from one blowout. They perform exceptional off road for what I do with em. They have hardly any wear and cant tell the difference from the ones I just bought to the ones on the car that have done 10000k

Has anyone sucessfully claimed warrenty on a cooper. I have recently had one fail and did not get any warrenty. I find it hard to be able to warrent a tire anyway it is a consumeable part of a car that is destined to wear out
It blew out on a straight section of bitumen road at 100kph

Mmmm sounds like the go how heavy is the steering when in 4wd and how heavy just when the hubs are in??

does anyone know of any failures in the fiber camshaft gears. I know that red holden motors have em and they are prone to failure around 60000km I just dont want to be ringing the RAC from halfway up a dirty great big hill

Mine i set at 70 also and doesnt matter what throttle posn either. It has to be some kind of electric activation or something that tells the gbox it is in fourth that can be overidden

Wasnt 4 me just was asked the question and decided to do a little research. My cruiser is not 4 racing I have a race car 4 racing and the cruiser is 4 cruisin.

Thats all I neede to know
Havent forked out any readies and wasnt planning to.

Thanks for the advice
You can go back to playing the pig skin flute
If you havent any real info then pull your head in

I gotta 60 series pet with an auto. I dont always want it to lockup in 'D' but it does no matter what. I heard there is a kit for Nissans to put a switch to stop it but havent heard of one for the cruiser. I have looked at the manuals with no luck. Tried disconnecting a few pugs on the g box with no ...

Well I will put new clutches in it and I guess It should last a little longer in the front as it wouldhave in the back. Just need a little help when the hubs a locked in and cant afford or justify 2 lockers

Better get the spanners out then. Can you adjust the clutches on the LSD up so they are a little tighter

60 series

Can you put the front diff in the rear and the rear in the front. I cant see why not they are bsically the same diff I have rung the diff mechanics and get a different answer every time. I want to put the LSDin the front and a locker in the back.

Hey Dudes has anyone heard of anyone having sucess in one of these little gadgets. The old boy want to install one on his cruiser but isnt sure. The cfm calcs prove it is possible but nothin beats actually givin it a go.
Also can you blow thru a landcruiser carby?

let us know how you go. I was thinking about doing it on my 60 but people keep telling me the front diff and rear diff are cut differently. Was told the front is cut reverse to the rear. One idiot told me it was impossible as I wouldnt be able to steer it on road coz its a LSD!!!!

The dude where I was going to buy them reakons they have god on road behavior. Him saying that makes me think they were road leagal. Might have to check it out

Whats the go with Simex Jungle Trekkers. I have never seen them on a comp 4x4 or in any action pics only seen the pedes. They look ok to me and look like they may do the job but why does no-one use them much

Hey Mate I had similar problems on my 62 series sahara. It turned out to be just the sender. It was a quick easy and cheap solution.

remember 40 series cruiers had thier fuel tanks under the seat so it cant be too much drama

I have been lead to believe that new engines are designed to run on specific oils. e.g in theory if you run the oil in a holden commodore that holden specify, your engine should have minimum wear ( cant say wont wear) and disounting mechanical failure should last the life of the vehical. This is ...

Engines that are converted to run on LPG only are actually supposed to run cooler. This is to do with cam and ignition timings. My Commode runs on straight gas and the initial advance for gas is 16Deg BTDC but only 22 at full noise. So you are just trying to get a happy medium with your tuning and ...

My 60 is actually a 62 and is a 89 model and has 4 speed auto plus lock up in fourth. I need to stop it doing it for towing and hilly terrain

I was asked to try one out in my Sheetmetal working days and I found it good for "normal" welding but if you were doing lots of tacks or stitches you would end up with a welding flash at the end of the day. That was a good brand one worth $400

Where do I get a copy of the electrical diagram? My Gregorys book has detailed schematics but nothing that goes down to the gearbox level.

I had better get you around to tune my cruiser as I get about 25-35L per 100kays on gas and about 14-16L on pet. The price of gas is around 40-50 cpl and pet is around 95-105 cpl. I cannot see the point in paying the 1500 bucks for the conversion. Especially when the tank fouls when I go off road ...

Does anyone know about these wonderfull things and how to modify my 60 series to stop it locking up when I dont want it too. I know it is quite a simple mod on same year patrols but I cant get any info on Cruisers.
