Outer Limits 4x4 Board

was out ormeou today with some mates and tried out some new sections. one was a mega hill climb i think is tower of terror but i dont know. anyway every one went first and made it after some wheel lifting and bouncing. then it was up to me to give rovers a good name was going sick till just at the top my rear diff found a nice pointy rock from there it all went wrong at first thought i did an axle on closer inspection found a nice figer size hole and some teeth of some gears dropping out.

BUT I HAD FUN!!!! now have to tell the missus

will post some pics and maybe a vid soon

dan

have to do the same as you and ask for donations or go down to the nearest street corner and sell my a*&

i only have 31s on it and its done well thought it would have busted ages ago guess hittin the go pedal so hard didnt help

mine lasted 3 years on 35's... my foot was flat when it went

now considering if i should do a diff swap or toy centre conversion. or go rover again and get a maxi later

decisions decisions

I am getting a JacMac locker when the money box has filled up..... I have a rear maxi and rover 4.11's so a toy conversion isnt worth it for me....

If i had std diffs and no maxis i would go down the toy path with jacmac axels it's works out a bit cheaper then 4.11's and maxis

You do understand the Jack Mac Hypoid diff IS a Toyota conversion....

U can get JacMac diff lokka for std rover c&p

I have only ever been out wheelin 5 times on standard rover diffs...

When i first got into wheeling was the first three times.... broke front diff twice, then broke rear diff centre.

Then moddified and wheeeled everyday with out dramas (maxidrives) bought a tow vehicle that i took 4wding and first outing broke rear short side axle splines, second time blew front diff centre to bits.

also had both ZF in the original blow the clutch packs and now the tow vehicle has done the same

i am rather over it hey... will never wheel with standard rover shit EVER AGAIN...

I worked out a long time ago that rovers don’t like you AP!!! I think u are better suited to the 'OTHER' type... you know the type that just hits shit at warp speed and wonder why things break.....

its true... maybe i would be more suited to a nissan and just drive shit harder and faster cause i personally thought i was rather gentle when it came to 4wdin...

no really rover diffs are just piss weak... and maybe i should just learn how to wheel...

arghh cant beleive i just put a post relating to me drivin a nissan.... ewww think i am gonna spew... one extreme to another... id go from breakin shit to not breakin shit but having lots of roll overs....

wanna buy a nissan? I got one for sale? hasn't been rolled

Mick

was just looking at jac mac site the hypiod diff looks sweet and so 30 spline axles do you know how much they are

was $1300 for the centre only i know it's more then an ARB but they are bullet proof!!

HTH

Mick

that sounds alright for a whole center probably 500 for axles mmmmm decisions

Jacmac axles, drive flanges, brass bushes, end caps $1560.
These axles are massive compared to standard rover

i think it cost me 600 hunna for my maxi axles last year. The lokkas are just wayyyyyyy too much 1600!!!!!!! sorry but that is too much!!

Mick

is that $600 for say rears only

my bro just bought a second hand maxi set up $1100 thats every thing the maxi axle upgrade is only around 700 have brochure here

sorry that was for fronts... rears would be similar plus drive flanges

just got some complete diffs out of a disco 24 spline pick them up this week should be good. need to rebiuld them i think as bearings are not good.

Mick

no it isn't.... it includes axles...

why do people complain about the price of maxi drive....

cost of an arb locker + axles + compressor =$$$???

cost of jac mac locker + axles + compressor =$$$???

cost of maxi drive

they are all good products... you only get what you pay for.

i have no problem paying the price for maxi drive... and i'm not rich
