Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Sliders are actually strong tubes that are fitted under the chasis rails, sometimes steps are added for dual purpose, but sidesteps alone are not rock sliders.

There is a spoa rocsta floating round Newcastle, dont know if the owner is on the board at all though. It also features in the current 4WD monthly readers rides.
Layto....

Yeah - I saw that one in the mag - in the readers rides at the back. White one owned By Mathew called Little Elvis or something like that - though I cant find his contact details anywhere ;-(

My Raider is just on 2000kg so I did my sliders with 3.2mm wall thickness. After last weekend, I think next ones I make will have a heavier wall. No real damage but outer bar has gone up a few mm towards the rear.

hey fellow rocsta owners..

my speedo, odometer and temperature isn't working... and the petrol one doesn't work properly unless the tank is more than half full.

what can i do to fix this?!? wires been cut or removed or something?

thanx in advance!

oh.. and one my headlights is smashed.. the rectangle ones on the bumper.. where can i source a good second hand one from? or should i buy brand new ones? actually yeah new ones would look a lot nicer =P

I am guessing a bad earth to the instrument binnacle (most likely), going on the electrical oddities that present themselves in other Kias...........................

Other possibilties: snapped speedo cable or VSS sensor wire, corroded contacts on the VSS and temp guage sender (engine end)...

here's a few sliders/steps

nice pics..

i need to source a speedo adapter.. at Asia Motors @ Moorebank.. it's worth $150.. doesn't even look like it's worth that much

where can i find spare parts for the Rocsta? (if anyone knows)

There's a couple of wrecks at Gold coast wreckers and also a wreckers new Toowoomba has some.
Just search and you'll find them.
New parts are sometimes cheaper than wreckers though

the wreckers in toowoomba is "South West Four Wheel Drive" and the number is 0746347171

Na matey more like sidesteps made out of pipe. Bout 2 inch diameter is nice. I had em on my patrol and not only can you belt stuff without breaking em but you can use them as a sidestep aswell.

hi i dont own one but i can remember someone in the suzuki 4wd club in sydney had one (maybe still has) that was hevily modified and was pretty tuf. i remember it ws in a mag too not sure which one it was about 3 yrs ago.maybe this would be worth checking out.cheers muds

Ideas......A Rocsta I saw on the side of the road in South Korea

If you want a Kia Sportage DOHC 104kW/195Nm (Powerchip91) engine/5speed/transfer case let me know in the next couple of weeks Add some Hilux 5.89 diffs and 35's......

Something the size of a zook with 104kW MMMmmmmmm........
