Outer Limits 4x4 Board

i know there was some talk of these a few months ago when they first came out.
i was wondering if anyone was running them yet and how they were holding up.
iv been talking to a mob called low range off road and got a quote for them to my door via USPS paying through PayPal for
$589.39 US (Around $755 AUS at current exange)
sound sort of to Good to be true.
but i think i'll try them

Matt

Could you please PM me with details and I might get a set too if the case I'm looking at doesn't work out. cheers jas

on the web site it says life time warranty, no questions asked. Anyone know if they are covered down under?

Are these the ones...

The grinding is very minimal and can be done with a dremel tool, or a die grinder with bits available from just about anywhere. I hope this further answers your question, and I am sorry I didn't answer your question sooner.

i like that less grinding of the case so i presume less chances of cracking

so what sorta tyers would these be good with 32 ... 33... 35 ?

think it said on there site:

for stock drivetrain.

4.16 - up to 31s (83 low, 12 high)
4.9 31 - inc rock crawling and better 5th for highway (115 low 16 high)
6.5 - above. (183? low and 20 high)

basically anying could suit any combo depending on engine, gearing combos, inc diff gears and gearboxes

oook?

well plan to run 33" offroad then either 31" or 32" onroad

stock motor , Wt diffs with Nt centres

thats the plan .. guess I'll have to do some calculations tommrow

That will be perfect Nic. I had series 1's (4.1) and sometimes i looked for a lower gear on the rocks with 31's. I have 5.14's with 32's now and am very happy

Layto....

i have just been looking on that site myself.there is some really good gear.I have 5.12 VIT centres and i only plan on running 31's so it would be fair to say the 4.1 83% should be ok for mine eh??The lowest ones arent that much dearer than the 83's for the difference your getting tho

If you looking at getting some contact LowRange from this site

Hello,
Noticed the thread and thought I would bring it back up to the top.
My Name is Sean and I run Low Range Off-Road.

I can help you out with any Shipping costs you may need. I ship UPS, Fedex, DHL, and Postal Global Express out of the states.

As far as the 6.5:1 gears, they are a good product and we have sold a good number of them. They have been tested out by the guys at Trail-Gear for at least 6 months now and withstood the test they have put them through. You can see the first Samurai they went into on their site forums here: http://www.trail-gear.com/vbulletin/sho ... php?t=1709

Let me know if I can ever help you out with pricing and I am smart enough to even convert it if you need ( http://www.xe.com/ucc/ )

Hey Nicbeer
I got the trail tough 4.9s off sean @ www.lowrangeoffroad.com . his customer service sh1ts all over trail tough and some of the other US companies. His price was right and the shipping was to my door in under 5 days.

I'm running 30x9.5 MTs at the moment and in first low can climb up a vertical obstacle. I've got some 31s coming next week and I think it will be perfect. Car runs like a demon on the road now. I can sit on 110 and pass cars on the flat (extractors + 2inch exh. engine mod). You won't be disappointed at all with the 4.9s unless you go bigger than 31s and still want rock crawling performance.

My mate has a jimny with a sierra transfer, 31s, and series 3 RH and his tranny is screaming on the highway at over 4000rpm @ 100km. Mine sits on about 3900rpm @ 100km showing on the speedo (~110).

sweet. let us know what the 31s are like with them. are u running 1.3 and std ratios or different?

also if u got some rev changes that'll be great. 100/110 is all.

Nic

Yep WT 1.3l, Its an apr 88 model with the plastic flares. Mines a weird one as the later model WTs have a 2 pinion front diff whereas mine actually had the 4 pinion front diff which was great when i put the lockrite in as i didn't have to change it over. So I think its a bit of a mix.

I'm not sure if its standard wt diff ratios or maybe NT cos of the 4 pinion front. Maybe someone on here can shed some light on the situation?

i'll let you know how it goes.

4 pin would be a 3.9 i would be guessing.
