Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I have to say I prefer the look of round sliders over square ones but which is stronger? and is there any need to use such wide sliders as the ones above? ie would square do instead of rectangular?

I chose the wider RHS to add a little more protection for the sill if I hit a rock while the truck ...

I have the 600 and I love it. It gets into all the nooks and crannies without a problem. The pressure is also good as you don't want it to hard blowing cr@p into your seals. The applicator is pretty handy also. Haven't tried the salt assault yet.

Not workingm page not there

Ive got the basic massojet and a K'Archer high pressure cleaner and I use both. The pressure cleaner is excellent to get the bad mud off. But I use the massojet most of the time as it is great for getting inside the chassis and other difficult places to get in. And with the on/off type switch the ...

uhhh so it only happenes when you let the revs drop

Its not like I ease up too much on the revs, it's just that trying to maintain high enough revs to keep motoring up the slope without plowing up at full throttle. Its then that they drop off, I dont even have to lift the foot for it to happen ...

I thought about it and have to get a price yet, but just thinking that it may just happen again. Especially if I get a lot of off-roading in over the hotter months, like I intend

Yep, at the start of the day right through to the end. Full tank through to whatever level I get to by the end of the day.

Yes it is a 1998 GU. I got it @6 months ago at 104,000kms, it's now on 116000kms. It does feel that there is a big gap as you put your foot down and when the revs pick up, and if the slope is steep, putting your foot down does nothing to recover the revs before it stalls.

id be replacing the soft hoses ftom turbo it IC and IC to inlet, as them being soft might not help, also, how long has it been doing this? didit start all of a sudden, or was it just getting worse,

My TD 42 had similar problems, and it ended up that the injector pump needed rebuilding, i could ...

My inlet and outlet rubber pipes on the turbo have become really soft. On really hot days like last Sunday out at Landcruiser, I believe they are being sucked closed a bit. Apparently, after speaking to Dave at 4x4 Excellence (shameless plug :lol: ), this is common for the Patrol. Sometimes they ...

I have an ongoing problem with stalling when doing steep hill climbs. It makes it difficult to crawl up slopes when you need to keep the revs really high to prevent the stall. If I do try crawling, if one of the wheels hits a bigger bump that needs a bit of oomph to get over, the revs can drop off ...

Just gets better and better :bad-words:

I also have a leak in the crankshaft seal and the turbo pipes have gotten real soft and are playing up (maybe). Had a problem the other day on the way out of Landcruiser Mt, being so hot all day, I think the turbo sucked the pipes closed. After it all cooled ...

Far out man!!! Just found out my 120,000 service is going to cost $950 at Nissan.

Can anyone recommend a place for services on the northside of Brissie where I can get it done reliably and cheaper. I also have an oil leak that needs attention. Think I might have been a bit rough with the ...

Well, had my service done today at Boab 4x4 at Lawnton. Only $650 all up which I was happy with. But found out my rear main seal is leaking. Apparently a big job to fix and will cost around $400 for 7 hours work. Its not leaking to bad yet but will need to be looked at sometime soon. Bugger. They ...

Might not be connected but I have found that since I got my 285/75R16 MTR's on, I get this wobble a lot. Having them at 40psi like the tyre place said seems to increase them. When the pressure is a bit lower such as 36-38psi the wobble seems to disappear. Just wondering if there is anything in that ...

GOOD NEWS!!!!

I let it sit overnight and tried my key in it again. The engine light flashed for a couple of seconds then stopped flashing. I then prayed to all the heathen gods Ive ever heard about and turned the key....and it worked

As I read it in the book, the engine light would still be on ...

Help! I need some urgent info.

Background - I had a second key cut by Nissan a while ago but they couldn't get me in to program it then. Bloke warned me "Don't put key in ignition, will wipe out computer" Ok, everyone in house told "do not touch key, will hurt truck if you stick it in ignition ...

285/75's are about a 33". I have one on the back of mine and it doesn't touch the wiper arm and there is a little clearance all round.

Yes it was changed. I was thinking of putting it in for the 110000 service and getting it looked at soon, so will add that to the list of things for them to check. Thanks

Do the 2.8td gu's have the same problems with air flow sensors as the 3.0td?

Reading many threads and forums about this problem, I seem to have many of the same symptoms. Blowing lots of smoke when taking off through to about third gear, lack of oomph down low. When off-road on steep slopes, the ...

Refer to page 16. This is for QLD but I doubt if there is much diference. I've got the same modification as you and was have added mudflaps as described in the attached standard
Cheers MEX :)

This is also ambiguous. The first sentence says "Effective mudguards must be fitted for all wheels on ALL ...

He's on the north side of Brissy, but he sells on ebay as well. I bought my Narva spotties off him and got a great price and excellent service.

Can't help you with the technical side, but I run them on 2" lift GU wagon. Can't wait to replace them with the big bore Tough Dog adjustables. The ride is fairly rugged offroad, so want to be able to soften it up a bit

I've got the Narva Ultima 175 Blue's on and they are pretty good for the price. A very white clean light. And a good price

I have asked this question on several forums in the past and the overwhelming response was in the negative. There were many long and detailed - very scientific - responses explaining why they don't work. My brother-in-law asked a ranger on Fraser once and he was told it didn't help their vehicles at ...

I have tried 15" on my 98 GU 2.8Tdi and they scraped on the brakes.

Mines on the front, beeeeautiful
