Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Well haven't seen too many going around these days, so decided to make my own!
The body is going to scrap anyway, so might as well make it easier to move.

Personally I think it looks a little odd, but if you spent some time making up something to enclose the cab it could look good.
BTW, after the last cut the body dropped signifcantly at the rear, so much that it was hard to close the rear doors!







Hmm... so this is why the rear windows didn't work!



Next step is to cut the floor off behind the seats!

My version (should be done this week)





Goodluck

Can't wait to see your's out and about Nadim.
Make sure you take plenty of pics 1st trip!

glenn zipf?? has a white styleside disco. he competes in proddy class

hey bud look at some of glen's utes, just sold his white one (style side back) now finished his tray back black one. 'brothers custom' he is on www.aulro.com is one of the sponsors and runs as 'discoute'. they can look nice when done properly. he is just west of brisbane.

he may be able to help yo with any q's?

all the best and i'm sure it'll come out looking sweeeeet

Bob it at the same time and they look great, everythings looks like it is proportioned very well.

One of my mates has a uted / bobbed one, runs Q78's and looks wicked.

Utes

Dave.

After i cut my 2dr rangie down i was suprised at how rigid it still is, i could grab hold of the rear 1/4 panel near the tail light and try to shake but no movement at all. B pillars are pretty big in a 2 dr rr though.

Its not green and beaten up, uses a sill tank for fuel

Yeh. Its not that beaten up though.

Its got a a bent spindle ATM so just sitting there.

Dave.

Seen him fuelling up at dargo between chrissy and new years, he was with a GQ shorty cut down to a ute aswell

Yeh I was in the cut shorty. What where you in?

Funny trip, he carried a full toolbox that took up 3/4's of the tub. Ended up having a few fuel problems with the tanks as they're not designed to be run as main tanks and dont have the vents and other stuff. So it ended up getting vapour lock on the hot days.

Dave.

Faark it was hot, was in my Softrover burgandy 4 door bald 33 muds then and a mate in a burgandy series 2 disco with the wifes, prob would have noticed her before my rangie

We are doing a trrayback in the UK, making panels to create the cab. In this pic it is sitting down on its bumpstops.









im

tim that looks wicked, hardcore looking cage! what pipe dia. is that? lloks bigger then 40/45mm?

Davidh make sure you bobtail the end or they look really funny and have overhang, although makes a tiny ute (but prob not going to use it for long hauls anyway...

I think he's cutting it to make disposing of the cab a lil easier. the only long haul its going on is to the scrap yard

Simon

Thats some damn fine tube work there Tim! Very nice joins at all ends as well

And the scrap yard is right across the road!

Tim, great job. The extra bit on the B-pillar really makes it look great.

I've cut off the back behind the b-pillar so I'll get another photo when there's some sunshine about.
BTW, if anyone wants any parts from this let me know, otherwise it's all scrap.

Rear is now all cut off. Plenty of potential for bobbing with the chassis.
Aren't they the best axles stands you've ever seen?

Hey i see you have the rear calipers there. You dont still have the front ones do you? If so are they 2 hose ones or single?

And is the clock still in the dash?

Got the front calipers still. They're the 2 hose type.
Clock is still in the dash, and works fine! One of the few electrical items that always worked!

Ill take the calipers and the clock if you want to offload them. PM me a price.

I need a couple of inches of the wiring that comes off the back of the clock as well.

Are they the same as a 89 range rover Tony? with the 2 lines off them.

Not Sure did you end up with the whole car?
