Outer Limits 4x4 Board

do the roctoy rings for the zook transfers fit straight up to the case using every bolt or do spacers have to be made for some??????also does it have to be modified to fit around the drivers side bracket or am i looking at it wrong in the dark here and need to give up??????any help thanks

the ring is just that - a ring... you need to make up an arm etc to attach it to the chassis.

ritio then i didnt know when i got it that it meant i couldnt use my standard brackets,now i do then.................?

i used standard arms + the ring with also acouple pieces of 6mm steel to mount it all together

you will have to take a notch out of the ring to fit the arms on then i gusseted them together so you wouldn't get any twist

this was installed at the same time when i lifted my case about 40mm. with the lifted case and the ring the case JUST clears the floor and I've got a 2inch body lift

cheers,i was just in the shed again looking and marked out where i was gonna notch it,now that you,ve done it ill give it a try...any chance of pm me some pics????

sorry no camera

ill get one

thanks

i just cut mine in to the main brace and welded it up

i cut everything then i tacked it all up then welded it all together of the case

cheers that will give me a few ideas and something to go off.ill see how i go with it tomorrow then.then ill just have to get some longer bolts for the ring etc

I fitted my ring, and my car does not have a body lift. The ring has to be trimmed down to about half height where the tunnel drops down on the drivers side.

I cut a wide shaped V to clear the tunnel corner, then I welded some 6mm steel plate allong side the narrowed section to try and regain some of the lost rigidity in the region.

Even after this, its still a very trikky operation to get the tranfer in and out of the car. But once it is in there is plenty of clearance.

cheers,well ive notched mine this morning and done a little bit of dodgey welding using a couple of pieces of 25x5/6mm flat i had lying around.put it back in car and took it for a drive all seems well for now,ill keep an eye on it i guess

If you've stuffed it up you would relies pretty quickly .. bolt holes wont line up

sorry for not being up to speed with instructions on this one man, we've been at the Logan challenge so i couldn't reply.

I figured anyone who wants one of these rings, has found out about them through word of mouth or has a mate who's done it and know's what's going on.

It's still interesting, there must be at least 50 zooks running around with one of these rings by now and everyone has fitted it differently, so you can see why it's tricky to give solid instructions.

cheers Chris

Chris

send me a pm as well

jimbo,yeah you need longer bolts,8 m8 50mm long will do,you can use 3 of the originals to replace the shorter ones if you want.so 11 all up and some flat washers to space out the ring where needed

thanks again for the ring chris,so far so good and yeah it does seem they are all mounted different

cheers
