Outer Limits 4x4 Board

A couple of tidy looking setups there. How much of a pain in the arse is it to disconnect for oil changes or to check the dipsticks? I'm sure I could sus something out make it managable

x2. Just bought myself a hilux running a Surf hairdryer & first on the list will be a cooler. Already has 2' body lift & I don't think a front mount would be an option so top mount it will most likely be

Good to see Moose made it there in one piece after his incident on the way up

Adrian on the H-H

Only had the phone vid so quality's not that good

Kane & Dan in the pro modified yellow zook had a good day today with some good scores on 3 of the 4 courses :cool:

Top weekend

Not too sure on final placings but got some top pics

I'll get details & pics up shortly

You'd probably want some after market radius drop arms on it too to push the front diff forward as I'd nearly guarantee they'd rub on the guards & I'm with GQ Bear....37s' on a GQ with 3'+2'....WTF!!!

More details would help.

Cab chassis? Wagon? Engine size?

Not 100% sure but I reckon there'd definately be rubbing with 35s' on a stock GU. Not all 35s are 35s :?. 35 M/T Claws are a smaller tyre than say 35 pedes & there'd be a few others aswell I'm guessing.

As for 15s', I'm pretty sure they'll ...

Yes & yes :D
well yes on first one depending who you talk to, I agree with GUB...
and I thought GU gear was heavier than GQ?

Yeah some will say you need castor castor plates though I had a 3' lift in the wagon with out them & it drove fine.

As for GU gear being heavier than GQ....you could be ...

Yes & yes

I've got the ute

If you want it to last you 7 years of towing, I'd DEFINATELY go the td42 mate....

Not sure what the Navara's like as far as towing goes but I'd think the GU would have to tow better than it with the td42 & I'm sure they have a larger towing capacity also:?

I had to tow boofs lux home on the trailer a month or so back & it towed really well. It felt reasonabley stable on the ...

Had a change of plans from last time I seen you Todd ?

Good work mate

I'm looking @ doing a water-air I/C on my GU & it's always good to see what else is getting around.

Let us know how you go on the dyno.

Joe

If you plan on setting up a camper on the rear I'd suggest leaf rear as there's obviously going to be a fair amount of weight on the back & leafs are the way to go with heavy loads though in saying this, I guess you could go poly air bags with coils that way you'd have the best of both worlds & it's ...

Thanks for the pics guys & gals

Here's what I came up with in the end

x2

The drivers side inner axle seal's leaking (has been for a while now ) & I was wondering how hard it is to change it?

Also, I know they recommend 80-90 gear oil for the front diff but can 85-140 gear oil be used?

cheers mate

Some wild look'n rides there

Any front on pics of that cut GU? Want to have a better look @ that front bar on it

I'm pretty sure it's only the GU 'auto hubs' that you'll have dramas with, not the GU freewheeling hubs. I busted the Auto hubs in the wagon, changed them to GU freewheeling hubs & never had any probs with them

If you need a hand pulling the cv & axle out, give me a yell.

Good to see Pete come home with the win this year after coming in 2nd last year to Birdy

No doubt about it, these 2 sure can drive

x 2

I busted my auto hubs on the wagon a while ago & changed them to Nissan freewheeling hubs as they're stonger than the auto hubs & a hell of a lot cheaper

From what I was told when I was looking @ getting a set, Nissan freewheeling hubs are a stronger hub than the AVM ones.

Joe

Looks like it'll be another On Track 1 & 2 if the boys can keep it together :cool:

Was there last year & Birdy's GQ looked as in good nic when I seen it a couple of days after the event as it did before Friday nights first stages, can't say the same for Andrew :lol:

Andrew probably found it a ...
