Outer Limits 4x4 Board

ah ok. thanks for the replies, all. well i ordered a couple of pajero rears today for the grand sum of $25 each plus freight. from the quick glance i had at one in a car park, they look fairly flat. not sure what the bushing is like yet but whatever worked in the paj will do me,

:? This is how I drive it - with the radius arm bolts all in, . ive read through this a few times steve, but for the life of me i can't think of what bolts you would be taking out of the radius arms to allow it to flop without them falling out. its looking like my heap will be getting coils in the ...

yep, from memory they measure up as a g13 with one pot cut off.

check your spark plug tubes for signs of the spark jumping out the side to the head. will look like a pin hole with white soot around it. otherwise swing round one arvo and i'll have a look for you!

Spike - that axle has been moved back, but it's all been done with the springs. See how much of the spring is visible in front of the rear wheels? On a stock sierra an equal amount of spring will be visible fore and aft of the tyre. I'm not convinced the chassis has been cut but I could be wrong ...

i had the same problem. ended up buying a whole car for $100, 130kms away. pulled the steering out and rang the scrappers from the blokes driveway.

hey flickaz, ive done the cressida p/s conversion on one of my cars and i love it! very neat and much lighter than the vitara setup on my other car. i used the joeblow mounting method, using the existing front hole and aligning the rag joint as best achievable before drilling the rear 2 holes. the ...

yep, mine has the vacuum pump on the tappet cover. didn't think to check where it was on the "good" one at work. i'll check the numbers and see if i can find anything. i was thinking the engine would have to be Gu cause it has the crank sensor and tone wheel, not sure that could be fitted to a ...

thanks for the links clanky, just been called back to work but will have a good read when i get home.

thanks for the info clanky, will be good if you can find that thread. the gu has shim adjustable valves and the gq hydraulic non adjustable lifters from the specs from auto tech. i drove another 2.8 gu last week at work and it was a night and day difference to mine wich is why i'm trying to suss ...

SO i'm at my wits end with this car. i check and double checked the timing. all ok. thought tight tappets would explain all my symptoms. poor starting ( winds over for about 4 seconds before starting and will not start without glowing regardless of temp) zero torque. have to rev it to 2ooorpm to get ...

go with a bent kit. yeh it sounds easy using the vit gearbox but the transmission tunnel, cross member and gearbox mounts all need modding and the gearbox is about a foot longer than the sierra box so a shorter jack shaft will need to be made and you may have alignment issues. i have used a adapter ...

havn't tried shifting on the fly.... that might be the next trick....... how do the auto hubs like the bitumen?

thanks clanky for the diagram. that was just what i was after. my key is more advanced than that even taking into account the angle of the motor. ill check the belt for round or square teeth but i didn't notice anything wrong and it must be the belt designed for that motor cause its got the lines to ...

hi all, fist time outside the suzuki section so try and be polite. ;) bought myself a Gu wagon a few months ago :armsup: but its a 2.8 :cry: i love the car itself. it very quiet and comfortable but its a slug on and off road. i have done a lot of reading up on the 2.8 and the general consensus is ...

this one? Tims on the left. overkill on the right.

report it stolen hey?? that would not be nice for the current owner

now that its rolling 4?'' boggers i don't think the current owner is going to worry about the paperwork. sorry man

Great weekend Pirates. super smooth driving Dan and Ben, :armsup: great to see a TEAM working together so well. http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa107/zooca1300/P1011155-1.jpg http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa107/zooca1300/P1011157-1.jpg http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa107/zooca1300 ...

does anyone have any contact details for "simobimo", he had some zook parts on here a while ago and had pm down as his contact but i have sent him 2 pms and they are both still in my outbox in the newcastle area?

Hi all I have just had a look at my snake Hi-steer and mine is leaking as well. I have noticed it before and was going to do a hub rebuild, but now that I have read this I am thinking its the Hi-steer instead causing the leak. Anyone want to buy it, I think I will be going the Lowrange way and just ...

very nice.

i also had the death wobbles in a standard zook. i tightened wheel bearings and added a stabilizer ( mine was torn off) and it was gone. since then i have changed the steering box and removed the stabilizer ( went to power steer) and now it is just starting to get the shimmy. i will be refitting the ...

Wow, what a great idea!! why hasn't this been discussed before. Peter. i'm pretty sure stuff needs to be done to get it to fit. try this link... http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/search.php i know these posts are clever but if you can't find a link, how is a noob going to??? i have never found the ...

there has got to be a better solution. there is.....its called just buying a normal road car. just look at the money thrown at custom diffs in the states. also, if you were to go to suzuki and order all the parts needed to make a front diff i bet the cost would be in excess of 3 grand. joe, i ...

Seeing as theres no cost difference between ARB front or rear lockers, you could run the rear side gears and 26 spline axles... so you get a bit more beef for your buck at the same time. i was only talking to turbo tonka about this the other day. my thoughts are, i would only consider locking my ...

89 should be early wt, so 3.7.
going from 4.1 to 3.7 is what your after. should drop your revs by about 400rpm.
ps. is there any chance your 31 measure about 28?

wait for it

hey mr rocky, did you go from a 12% (1lt) case to a 20% case expecting it to lower the revs :? what gearbox are you using? my numbers say at 100ks with 31s, 4.1diffs, .864 5th and 1.58 maruti tranfer you should be revving at 3761 rpm. if you go to a 3.7, it will drop it to 3394rpm. but these numbers ...
