well you know it is bent from where you welded it so all you need to do is weight the oppersite side / put jack under the other end of your car and tie down one end heat up the afected area and use a spray bottle of water and slowly pull the chassis back the other way go slowly until your doors ...

i dont remeber no 90kl hr to tuff truck that is what i was doing maybe down a Big hill with a run up on a hill before that one :lol: we left cessnock together and i was set up before he got there but mick you did get there in the end but saying that you did leave redhead at 4.30am on thursday ...

so i would only be saving a 150kgs thats a far bit of dead weight might have to give this some more thought

hi there does anyone no what the 4.2td plus gear box and transfer weights are as im trying to figure out weather my diesel is to heavy and maybe swap to an LS2 with auto and atlas transfer for my comp rig so any weights on any of these two engine set ups would be good

scrape the mud and make another man made course but only have bonus lines no bunting just say 10 different obsticales and let the competitor choose which order they do them in then you could have lots of roll overs big angle stuff and make the competitor think about which ones he can do and in which ...

well im ready finally a few job to complete out there and the truck is ready for another tuff truck

so see you all out there and bring it on

thanks for that and will definatly have fun modifying it have ordered all of my parts for my 6wd convertion so hopfully it will all be done by tuff truck to tow my comp rig there

looking at some second hand trays for dual cab convertion what with is a standard gu tray width

2 front doors off a 99 patrol ute there white in colour there straight no rust but the trim is missing parts windup windows

if interested then give me a pm

its not that big of a prob as how offen do you reach that high as you basically need a steep hill or be towing as mine doesnt really go above 15psi unless im in 4th or 5th gear and i stopped doing in 5th as i distoryed 5th gear i had it done to mine with only 10000klms brand new on the clock it now ...

i have the arb ones and am totally over them i am cosidering welding the rear one up they play up far to much either leaking air in to diff soliniods not shutting properly oil out of the soliniods fitting being broken off lines being cut or damaged then theres the copper tube inside that is very ...

yep he quoted 4500 for the 4.8 he is the one im going to get to do it if thats the way i go thanks for the noise injector question i will ring and ask him about that

thanks for the response have spoken to many peolpe over the phone and the ones that sell the gas injection say they meet and exceed the emision for the 4.8 but the other type doesnt but is this enough reason to spend the extra also when i turbo the engine i will be able to full tune it where with ...

want to here from people who have had this done as im torn between the 2 systems ive had quotes of around 4500 for the gas injection and 2700 for the other type is the injection worth the extra as i am going to turbo it after i fit the gas but saving $2000 buck helps towards the turbo sooner anyway ...

so its looking good mick with that paint job on those arms nearly as good as the mud flaps

so is going to be ready for nissan trials or is the first comp tuff truck either way bring it on

if you are going to tow heavy loads i would stick with the five link if its to go 4wheelin then go a good design 4link rear the reason behind the heavy loads is that all of your diffs locating points are now roughly 1000mm further down the chassis and gives more leverage for the tralier to push side ...

hi wendy with out consulting the rest of my club members i would like to see all of our club run together as you can then watch them compete but better than that when you are in a long line up you only need to leave one person to look after 4 cars instead of 1 person for each car thus giving the ...

looking at buying a new 4.8 petrol patrol but nissan wont warrant the motor if i put it on lpg so i would like to hear from people who have 4.8 patrols on lpg and find out what problems they have had and how many klms they got out of them before they had the problems also what consumption are they ...

im going to give ago on a tow veicle first but if i can make it cheap enough than that thought has crossed my mined but would make it bolt on so i had the choice do you think tuff truck would let a 6wd in next year

another question how does the 4.8 swim as wear i live at the moment in remote NT there is deep water crossings when it rains some over the bonet and was just worried that the 4.8 wouldnt be up for that and i do love my 4.2 td in my comp truck it keeps running even when it starts to float never had a ...

no i want to buy an 03 or newer which means i need to get a 4.8

to buy a 4.2td is worth about 10grand more than the exact same as a 4.8 petrol and they are hard to find in auto

sent an email off to the engineering shop that did the transfer mods today will wait to see how much they want

to get a middle complete diff with the drive through to rear is worth $13000 or 21000 for the complete kit

looking at buying a 4.8 petrol auto and pulling out the petrol engine and puting in a 4.2td i want to do this mod as to get a 4.2 td auto and the fact that i can save close to 10000 buying a petrol over the 4.2 so is this a simple engine swap or do u need custom adaptors between engine and gear box ...

just looked at that sight above thats exactly what im talking about just with coil springs thanks for that
is there any other companys out there supplying this type of centre diff would be interested how much it goes for

i had two ideas one was to see if i could machine the back side of the transfer so i could have a shaft come out both sides of the transfer where the front shaft is so that would give me three out put shafts and then i would run a two peice shaft to the rear diff. the second idea i had was to make a ...

i am going to atempt to do a 6wd convertion i dont want a lazy axle and i only want to run in 2wd on road so my question is

how do you get a third place to put a tail shaft from to only ingage when you put it in 4wd if any one has any photos or ideas on how would be good to hear from you thanks
