how about a vitara v6 with autobox with your zook case behind that?
light and rev to the moon

if it was a bundera (which its not) 2 inch lift would do, 80 series front coils lift would lift it 2 inches

Hi all, My 2002 SWB Mitsubishi Shogun starts and runs fine but as soon as I put the auto into drive or reverse the engine management light comes on and she goes into 'safe mode'. I've cleaned the micro filters as this engine seems prone to blocking them, but now I am stumped. Anyone any ideas? Any ...

heres a set and a whole lot of info

what about the honda motors? they came with a nice auto, could be fun with the vtec

ive been thinking of a buggy like this for a while and was reckoning that a honda vtec+auto+welded diff +4.88 bundy axles + 35's would be fun

big tyres are ok, my 2.4td pushed my 36's around for a good couple of years, now its got a v8 its spot on as for flex, its a bundy they dont flex very well, but when they do flex its well balanced front and rear, they do like to waggle wheels in the air but aslong as theres a couple of wheels ...

it takes my 36's well at the moment with the 80 series springs in and only rubs on the rear wheel arch when articulating, the front doesnt rub, maybe i allready have the best compromise of lift and tyres and height, i'l get the stauns put in them and get them put back on it and have a good flex and ...

allready got pretty high offset wheels, i'll ponder it a while more, its all that lower 40 in petersons thats got me thinking!

is it do-able?
i know i could just go crazy with the grinder but is it realistic?
mine suprise suprise feels too tall with 80 series springs in it and am wondering wether i should drop it and get some geometry back
what you reckon?
Cheers Hugh

cheers!!
it was a little while ago though, ill update my members profile soon

yeah thats mine, now got tube front bumper, rover v8 (eyeing up megasquirt at the mo), auto, and toying with dropping it back down onto standard springs and still run the 36's

im afraid the problem is the 3 litre, swap a 2.8td and be done

no, the ends are too wide for the mounts

80 series panhards dont fit they are too wide for the mounts, i just lengthened mine to suit

no cutting and my tyres are 14.5 wide and i have 1.5 inch spacers and offset wheels, they do touch on the inner wheel arch under articulation but not much, i could do with spacing the bumpstops down half an inch or so to stop it happening did you cut the guards at all to fit 36's? i had 35's on mine ...

80 series front springs (im presuming the 80 series spring you tried was a rear one) are what you want as they are the same diameter as the bundy springs and ive just got a set of pro comps on mine which do the job. As for the castor correction bushes, i dont know and could do with some too! mine ...

in cuba dont they take templates of whatever panel they want to replace and make then by hand?

i was there in 2005, i think i spent the sunday afternoon at rocky horror next to hypo, good times, not this year though, rubbish
have fun
Hugh

i think its a cool build, something different, ive got a lj70 chassis sitting in my shed and was going to swap axles, steering into the sj, but this could be just as much work but stronger in the areas that count
anyway good work fella
Hugh

seems a pretty good price too, but no bids!!!!!!

but it is a great example of the kind of truck you are talking about, i'd imagine the rainforests are slightly more manageable than the swamps of northern russia where it was built to compete, having finished top 5 in the ladoga trophey on its first run out of the shed! and taking on vepsski les ...

i was in the middle of doing a post like yours isuzurover when i was disrupted and then i was too late!!
ah well, cheers for getting the specs up
Hugh

it works for me?

failing that copy and paste it
im not brilliant with these computer things

ive got a mate in botswana and he heads out into the bush tracking zebra and he's having trouble with punctures, he has landrover 110 and wants some split rims to make it easier for repairs in the bush, but LR never made a split rim (this is where i pointed out he should have bought toyota!) but i ...

my hilux is blowing sidelight fuses, ive checked and swapped all bulbs and rewired my trailer socket so its all good, any ideas??
is there a common place where it rubs and could be earthing??
oh its a 92 single cab, 2.4 diesel, with its original bed
cheers Hugh

just wondering, but has anyone put a type r milemarker up against a twin motor 8274? winching and cost?

right its all the post below's fault!! telling me why i like my bundy so much! right its a 2lt and uses a fair bit of oil and needs a fresh engine , usual rust under winds screen other than that its not too bad, 80 series springs all round, winch bumper rounds it off so ive been looking at other ...

have the brits got their trucks?
