Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I see no-one bit on this thread...

Lets see, the timing belt isn't far from being due to be done and get the water pump done at the same time, it's behind and driven by the timing belt...

Lifts can be a PITA with the torsion bar setup, not much room on some vehicles for adjustment of the upper ...

MK or ML...??? 31's on the MK GLS alloys hit the chassis at the front on my MK, 32's fit fine on my ML...

hey guys just wondering if 265/75/16's will fit on my stock of triton??

You'll likely have issues with the fronts scrubbing on the chassis lock to lock, 31's scrub so 265/75's (32's) will... This can be overcome to a point by screwing out the steering stops but that model isn't famous for it's ...

Yup 15x7 is fine for 31/10.5's...

They'll fit with loads of room... Anything closer than Navara offset will scrub on the inner rear wheel arch with flex...

Mitsu 3.2DiD in the triton - my inlet manifold had closed to a ~10mm aperature in under 20,000km, swirl chambers were rooted too...

I'll be interested to see how this goes - I've used the Toyota stuff many moons ago with zero success, perhaps they have improved it...

I'm pretty keen to paint it for a few reasons - i hate the yellow being the main reason.

ok, so I might consider canned paint and using my compressor then... Damn you OL smart people ruining my pressurepak fun!

Rattle cans = both index fingers falling off after can 5, it's a real shit because ...

Sharpen the tungsten electrode regularly, if you stick it to the job, sharpen again - a sharp electrode provides a better flame and more accurate welding...

Edfit: welding thin stuff like staino tube, you can use just the flame without filler to make tacks, once the job is self supporting it's ...

Have you ever lifted a 10 stud alloy then a 10 stud steel disc wheel...??? Alloy is for aesthetics, they are heavier than steel...

Makes sense, Nissan are retailing them out my way...

I crawled in, out and over one of these at Knox City - everything underneath 'looks' adequate but not exceptional... Cab external quality is equal to any of the dual cabs coming out of Thailand, cab interior shit all over my Triton for quality of finish including softer leather for the steering ...

Any pipe benders on here able to do noise tests in Melbourne East...???

Just want to get my bike tested in light of the upcoming bike noise blitz...

I'm yet to see any name brand compressor achieve this, and I've seen a lot of them...

Another thing to keep in mind is the restriction of those braided flex joints, they are corrugated on the inside causing massive airflow interruption... I was discussing this with a mech-engineer at work and by his calculations, depending on the length of the flex joint, you can reasonable expect ...

Have you tried HERE

Not my vehicle im not stupid enough to do it to my 4by


they said they were pissed and wanted to do it for fun,

Do you actually have room for 35's on the hilux...??? Mate with 3" susp and 1.5" body lift can just fit 34's (read 33" Silverstone actually measuring 34")

Dunno Jop, must have been a woman though...

date,

had the front of the engine off last night to reveal the timing gear, belt etc... Belt appeared very loose but when I rotated the engine by hand it tightened back up again - unsure how the hydraulic tensioner works...

Have been advised likely water pump issue due to it not being replaced at the 90k service - before I go out and buy one then set upon the sharthouse job of replacing it, could it be anything else...???

Last year I replaced the viscous fan hub due to over heating(thoroughly cleaned radiator at the ...

Thanks Hudson, I'll look around as after market are a tad over half the cost and quite frankly the stocky doesn't seem much chop being rooted at 170,000km...

genuine or after market for 6G72...???

Same area, any recommendations on chrome plating (bumpers, trim etc)?

Anyone got any suggestions? I've got two old-school chrome bumpers and a few bits of random trim that need attention.

The front of the triton isn't tooooooo bad, but the rear of the cab and the tray look ridiculous.

Yes, that is the bit I mean too. It looks like Homer Simpson designed it. Or a primary school kid doodled it during a boring class.

If you look at it on an angle from the rear, the cab looks like a ...
