Outer Limits 4x4 Board

On behalf of all the boys and girls from Blue Mountains thanks to the Toperi team for once again hosting a terrific event that was fun for all. Looking forward to seeing you all there again in 2010.

Thanks guys! I have been toying with the idea for a while - just took a bit to work up the courage to ask and hence admit to own my thoughts. This is not a 'coming out' - it may be just a stage I am going through!

Could you guys point me towards a full spec sheet for the Ladas? Need dimesions, wheelbase, axles, gearing etc. Thanks.

Well, if that's coming from someone who has done a body lift on a 2001 Triton, then it must be right! Thanks for the help... but no thanks for the insults.

Hey Odd Ball - great to hear from the Tundra. UHF is the standard frequency (along with the old 27mHz CB) for land communications here in Oz. VHF is used mainly for ship-to-ship and ship-to-shore. Also we already have an extensive network of repeater stations for UHF all over the country, so range i...

The suspension lift with transfer case drop tilted the engine back so that the front of the engine lifted slightly. Combine this...

Thanks folks - all good pointers and gives me some where to start. Noise is coming from front - possibly left side.

Hey Everyone, I have problem that I'm hoping you can help me with. Last weekend we took the 95XJ out to a 4WD Club fun day. It went well except for a loud and rapid knocking noise that only seemed to occur when in 4WD and accelerating hard (and possibly with the wheels turned but not sure). Given it...

Well Hi Ya folks - this is my first post as a 4X4 person. I have a 95 XJ which I have had for some years and I am just getting into the scene. I used to drive 4X4s around the bush for a living and just never saw the point in doing it for fun. Anyway I have had a 2" OME kit fitted (largely because th...
