Outer Limits 4x4 Board

there you go ben,

if theres one person id listen to, it would have to be frank

dean.

hello ben and to all,

so ben rang me the other night and had said that the jabber wasnt running real good. would hit 60 and then run out of pep. The only time i can relate to this is when i had my shorty and one of the leads had fallen apart and was only running on 5 cylinders. It sounded the same ...

well guys,

its a sad day, the jabber has gone. after rebuidling it and having some fun with it, iv now sold it. Not a waste though, the guy who bought it, has bought it to drive, hes a member on here and lives close to some good tracks, so hopefully it will get used a lot, unlike towards the end ...

my old shorty was 4.625 and it was 3.oL v6

dean

fair enough scott,

sorry mate, and thank you also. thought id let the pajero guys know first. just so people know, im only selling it cos its sitting around not doing anything and im not totally happy with that. i dont live on the mainland of oz at the moment and so its sitting there getting ...

just letting people here know, iv got my paj for sale.

Iv got $16,000 on it. Only got a few months rego on it and also will need new rotors all round. Price is negotiable depending on the rego and rotors or whatever.

happy to sell it if someone is interested otherwise will hold on to it. Just ...

im quite surprised none of the mitsy boys are really all that interested, would be a shame to let the rest of the world understand just how good the jabbers are...

ah well,

dean

just putting it out there guys,

i have recently taken a job opportunity that doesnt allow me to use the jabber as much as i would like. If you are interested please forward any expressions of interest through to deanobravio@hotmail.com, or you can pm me here. Pretty much for those who dont know it ...

if the valves on the auss shocks are presta, then yeh $2 will buy you the adapter from presta to shraeder valve. any bike shop will have them.

dean.

ahhahahahhah i was in queensland, wanted to replace the panhard bushes, and had the same problem. had been travelling for the previous 6 months and so didnt have everything possible, but i did have a hammer and that. Anyways tried and tried and tried, same sort of bushes like your talking about ...

37s would need GQ axles for sure. Not an impossible job, it's been done, but fawkin involved.

Hate to sound like a dick, but if you have to ask, you probably can't do it yourself.

Yeah standard axles wouldn't be up to it. If anything it would be downright dangerous when they snap on you ...

seems weird to think of a nh with leafs, especially a shorty that looks very similar to my old one. good stuff, i miss my shorty,

dean.

ahahha pajeros do the same thing though...

dean

dean

ahhahah yeh it is my old shorty,

iwant it back


as wellas my new one


dean

is it just me or does the search function not work very well at all anymore???

seems to be like that for a while now, it always comes up with nothing found when i search really simple things...

dean

go treps.

got em for $316 ea fitted and balanced just in december or january. VERY happy with them, i love them theyre directional...

dean.

welcome to my world...

dean

yhe supercheap have the 3m stuff, get a few metres long by 50mm wide.

dean,

have fun finding them,

noone wants to sell them, and then when there is a set for sale, usually the mini truck boys grab em, cos im sure theyre only 6" or 6.5" wide, so they can run them, dump their mini truck without having to tub it, either that or theyve usually got a hefty price tag on them ...

yeh the castor has been built built into the diff, the knuckles have been rotated 5 deg. i feel like i may be chasing the wrong problem anyways, im thinking it could actually be an 'egg' in the front right hand side tyre, but either way the steer box is rooted, so it needs to be done anyways ...

yeh i have franks old paj,

but its not a resplines 60 serties box, its a resplined 60 series pitman arm, the box is all standard.

if anyones had a box done, maybe an idea how much it cost or options available, because at the moment the ONLY option is to pull it, send it away to get rebuilt and ...

iv had the wobble in the front end for a while, got rotors machined, got magnum compound in the tyres, and still got the wobble, coming through the steering box.

ch3ecked the freeplay, and it took 2.5 full turns to take the freeplay out of it, but then the wobble was gone, but now it wanders and ...

just wondering if anyone has ever had dramas with their power steer box???

mines fubar at the moment, had 2 quotes, one from pedders, $500 for remanufactured box upspec, but maybe $300+ for rechromed shaft, plus fitting and labour, and then another place was $470 p[lus $105 if the shaft needs doing ...

the crank angle sensor can definitely be intermittent.

mine caused the biggest headaches in the world. Ended up being the crank angle sensor, so replaced that, the connector and dissi cap.

has been running great ever since, touch wood.

dean

ahahhah awesome, yeh had a shoot with them a little while ago,

havent been able to get a copy cos im on moreton island.

hope its good, ahhaha dunno if its on the dvd too, but i could look and sound a bit suss AHAHAH

ill have to wait until i hit the mainland though i guess...

cheers,

hope ...

tore apart the bearing carrier and locker cap last time, total cost including $150 for the axle, roughly $600.

dean.

the only other things that will stop spark are the efi relay, which hardly ever fark up, and then the ecu. Other biggest problems are the coil, dissie, and wiring.

id know, i was mucking round with mine for 5 months trying to find a spark problem, had a thousand little problems, ended up being the ...

mate iv got a set of alloy blocks i had machined up for my shorty but never fitted them, got til monday to sort it out then im off, otherwise could maybe take them with and catch up with you somewhere up there. Could just fix me up for the cost of them, youd have to sort out high tensile nuts and ...

just thought id throw it up on here while i am still around,

after snapping 4 aerials i got sick and tired, i snapped two original ones, and then two aftermarket ones, and didnt feel like going back to $120 from the wreckers for the originals, and then i thought id try this one:
