Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Looks good, is that a slip joint in the middle? Is there a reason the top mount is so far back? Nik It isnt a joint in the middle its just 2 pieces of tube, one inside the other. It lets it slip in and out and rotate left and right. The further apart the mounts are the better it will stop rotation ...

I know exactly what you mean tiny, if i was an engineer or trailer manufacturer i would be a little iffy about it being used for hi speed use. Im just trying to figure out why it isnt good for hi speed....

G'day mate, Are you planning on having it registered. Im not entirely sure as i am no trailer manufacturer, put possibly the break system you will require is what is going to influence how your suspension/axles will be setup. I will be picking up a 4.5 tonne tri-axle boat trailer that has just been ...

Dosent this system used a fixed draw bar point ? Eg minimal up and down movement as to keep the trailer attached. The spray cart we had our farm did and was a pain driving over colvert drains because of this. Can you get a pic of the attachment ? Cheers Nick Fixed draw bar point? I was just going ...

Ok so i have been thinking about making another trailer. Flat bed, folding sides and a 4.5T load limit. Now i have been towing a large spray tanker with a tractor and all the trailer has is a 2 axles/hubs on each side. One of each end of a solid beam and a pivot in the centre (no other suspension ...

No, thats about the angle that they are std. If you pull some leaves out of the packs it should improve the angle of the shackels a bit but you will loose some ride height. That said you will also improve the atriculation (if your shocks allow it) and ride. Just know that taking out too many my ...

Std 40 has no coils, take them out and see how it rides then if its still bad you can take a few leaves out. 40's expecially the swb are bouncie. who let you back on here?? back from the dead mo fo, hey can i have your gearing now?? How much do you want em, ill be back in sydney on thurs and im ...

Cheers Adam

Go haultech...great product and great blokes to deal with.

Ive got pics of De-Lux....lafondaling


Dont worry they will be coming



Also some good ones of jess being violated without even knowing it


Great weekend for me and screw, but everyone knows it was only good because of the unreal navi and his massive guns


WHO WON!

Weld it

thats the thing, i stuck an axle in there and it protruded a good 10 mm in but im assuming it doesnt stick that far in, more like 5mm when the axles are in their proper place. I might just weld up all the gears as best i can and leave this area open, ill be putting an arb in there in a month or so ...

Dropie you may as well whack the axels into it as one of mine did fall too low into the centre and caused problems. Push the axels in and then you cant get it wrong.

If i get my arse into gear i might have something to drive thats part zook

i did it to my sierra...... used datsun leaves as the elliptic and took 1 spring out of the sierra leaf pack. also unfolded the brackets to hold the leaves thogether. attached are a couple of pics of flex with shackles i made myself. the springs are mounted using 2 U bolts (should really have ...

My members thread had my whole build up and 3/4 conversion pics but in mot sure what pics are still there. Search for MY45's shorty trayback, also there is lots of info on here and pirate if u search 3/4 elliptic or buggy leaf.

Do you think it will be able to drive through the first layer of gravity

Millitary wraped springs have the 2nd leaf wrap around the 1st one at one end. It captures the 1st leaf and reduces the spring wrap.

Thanks you big Hmm Anyone else with aprox weights?

Had a bit of a search and couldnt find too much on the weights of the rover drive tran. I found the 3.5 weighs aboyut 144kg, but im also after the 3.9 (is there any differance), the ZF Auto and the transfer case.

Adam

to be honest, i wouldn't know to tell. but the springs are fairly good nick, as are all the rest of the gear associated with it. when i am at max ramp, i would estimate the shackle pin/spring eye angle to be about 20+ degrees, so there's a lot of compression and twisting that the bushes have to ...

Hey crazy have a search as there have been a few threads in the toyota section on this exact topic...good reads too.

Bahahaha that is the whimpiest little cut ever...DRIVE IT! well yes it may be but i am more concerned about a blowout at 100 on the way to the tracks and 90% of the time i have my kids with me. but i thought it was whimpy as well but just wanted to be carefull Na man i understand i was only jokin ...

right. now that i have finally gotten the extended shackles in and sorted out, i have found that i am going through bushes faster than i can buy em! :shock: i searched but couldn't find anything on the orbit type bushes. can anyone tell me if they are any good, and how they affect the on road ...
