Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I bought one a while back to fit - but now i cannot decide if its more trouble than its worth. its on my truck - gu box ls1 pump, 37 beadlock claws for obc

who has one and swears by it???

Certainly do when i finished my buggy at first running a XE ford box and pump running 38s took it out only for a quick 1/2 hour drive couldnt touch the hoses they were so hot now gone to commodore pump with 80 series box but still running cooler never had a problem and can grab hold of lines any time no matter how long or hard we have been wheelin got mine from coventrys biggest they sell

Commodores have one standard, and need another if they are fitted with a towbar, So I think they are nessesary on something with oversize tyres or extra weight.

I know a lot have auto trans coolers, but do commodore's also come with a power steering cooler? What model did this start?

I've been thinking about a cooler also, may be overkill, but I've got an unused cooler sitting in the cupboard so I think it can't hurt.

It will be installed on the low pressure side of the system, so what hose would you need to run to be safe?

I was thinking about it as well as all of the GU's run one but I have not had a problem with the GQ box so I think I will just wait and see if the GU box causes more pressure and heat first.

I used to be able to cook the oil in the power steering quite quickly with only 35's at low pressure.

well worth it. all u do is cut the return side and plum it in. I used fuel injection hose and hose clamps.

Yep I also fitted one.
-Bigger tires
-higher pressure pump
-and a looked front diff

will heat the oil real quick

Im running one on mine and it works great. Even extra hose for increased oil volume will help . The wreckers sell auto trans coolers cheap as , just find one that fits

At least VR onward (maybe earler) they needed one when a heavy Towbar was fitted, then the VT LS1 had one as standard, and VT's got another one fitted with the heavy towbar.
They are just a pipe loop across the front of the car, nothing too special.

AU falcon PS cooler

Ohhh ok... My Rocky has that!

I thought you meant like a radiator type cooler.

thanks fellas. I have a new oil cooler about 300x230 so i will fit that. Might have to use p clamps to mount it for lack of a better idea. cheers bru
