Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I've purchased a bit of stuff for the Toyota from roodogs. Had no problems.

I'm running 15x10 on my 1999 GU, fine, not alot of clearance but enough!
(And have stick on weights)

I was in the same boat for the last 6 months and just bit the bullet.
Picked up a GU 4.2 wagon 1999, it,s immaculate, best thing I've ever done, with safari turbo and intercooler fitted at 40,000kms, now done 137,000.
It has quite a few extras, 2" lift, dual bat, alarm, tint, arb winch bar etc, some ...

hey croatian,
I ran 33's age's ago and all i had was a set of 2" extendard shackle's.
they only rubbed on the rears on the chassis.i also ran 36 et2's with 2" inch spring 2" body and extendard shackles and drop shackles, 1 and 5/8 inch back space rim's and shifted front axle 60mm forward.

I have the same vehicle and have 33x12 bfg muddies on an offset 15x10 black "Mangel" rims, I needed 2" extended shackel and 2" spring to fit them. But it might be worth doing 2" body and tray lift (very easy) in case you use 35"s one day, I did this no regrets, still feels really solid and safe and ...

Thanks people. Maybe be looking at GU wagon 4 to 5 years old can anyone confirm that 15 x 10's would fit?
Also if models this age are a good choice or had any problems in petrol or diesel / turbo diesel?

The 35's should fit, but you would want to stick at least 2" suspension under it just for a bit of extra clearance.

Id keep em, the simexit will make your GU an absolute weapon..

:twisted:

What about the 15" part I know they go on gq's but wasn't sure about gu calipers with 15" rims?

I am thinking about purchasing a gu patrol just wanted some opinions on the best models to suit my needs.
I have a HJ75 ute, but have a baby on the way, so need more sets.
I am a sparky so need the space of a wagon for work. But for play, I plan to do some serious off-road weekends away and am a fan ...

10k is a good deal for that vehicle especialy if you know its history. I looked at a lot when I bought my 1987 hj75 in 2000 but ended up buying the father in laws ex farm ute for $8500 270,00km's it was basic but I knew its history and I believe that is valuable.

Have a look at cheezy.

Can anyone give me any info on where to get an arb air locker for the front of a hj75 ute installed Melbourne eastern subs? I want a reputable fitter.
What I should be paying?
Already have comp and air tank.

Use 2 bottle jacks on blocks or bricks with piece of timber against under-body, try one side at a time.

Yes mate you need to take the old ones out and take them to the bolt shop, get them all 2inch longer, high tensile of course I think for memory 2 front ones are longer than the other 4. 25-30mm offset rims or you could try spacers. Ive been told I would need a new front driveshaft if moving the ...

Hey mac1cruz, I have a HJ75, do the body lift mate its fine, 2 inch, 6 blocks $10 each, 2 hours work just cut a large arc from the bottom of the fan shroud, dont move radiator, trim the body around the shifters about a half inch and you'll need a good offset on the rims to run 35's to avoid hitting ...

HJ 75 come out the factory with 32" cheese cutters mate.

not sure what kind its about 5 years old got it 2nd hand, maybe tyre pressure is uneven but would it need to be a massive difference in tyre pressure? or just a few psi? only one side unlocking also.

I have a detroit locker in the rear of my landcruiser and it is disengaging under load alot when taking off. Can any one tell me if this is a common problem or maybe just as simple as a broken spring or something?
