Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I had universal springs fitted a while back on my GQ and they were crap, the whole rear end would sag with a decent load in the back, I also had Rancho 5000 shocks in.
I have just had OME springs and shocks fitted with a 2" lift. So far these are fantastic.
Good warrenty as well, and they check ...

The way I noticed that it was missing was driving through water which was over the bonnet. Halfway through I noticed the passenger footwell filling up with water!! Good car wash though.

It's a 96 coily

Trying again, bear with me

Sorry couldn't get the photo on here but the link works

I'll try and attach a photo

After a recent trip I noticed that something had fallen off of the passenger side of the fire wall, leaving a small round hole about 15 cm up.

But I can't remember what was there before.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm down south I'll check your thread out on 4WD Monthly

I have a coily, had a leaf before that. the coily is a bit softer ride.

Will upgrade the coils one day but don't know with what yet.

A mate of mine is looking to buy a FJ40, he has seen one for $4 500, original motor, sports bar good simex centipede tyres. Not being a Toyota man is this a good price?

Your suppose to call the cops if the car can't be driven away, it might be hard with the insurance company to get what u want quickly without their report ..... :/

Here in SA your supposed to report the crash if the damage to both vehicles exceeds 2 grand.
Good luck with insurance, police said I ...

Do you mean an easy conversion for leaf or coil?

If you do get a thermo, hook an over-ride switch up so you can switch it on/off when you need to. This way and it doesn't matter if you drive through deep water. Mine is behind the radiator so it's kinda protected as well. I've also got a bonnet scoop sitting directly above the extractors, pushing ...

I have a 1985 1.3L that has done 379 000 and is happy to sit on 110 on the expressway. I think that it must have had a rebuild at some time.

Has run better since I started using Penrite HPR30

Very cool exo

The Southern Explorers 4WD Club is in the southern suburbs. Not alot of zooks but a small club of all type of 4wds. If you want any more info PM me.

My first 4WD was a Toyota 4Runner, blew the motor in that, so we upgraded to a Nissan Patrol TD42. Also had a commodre which I wanted to rebuild.

But then I saw a few articles in 4WD Monthly on zuks and decided that would be more fun than the commodre, so I found a 85 Hi roof.

The Patrol is ...

You guys would make great fireman!! Now their tools would make this job even easier.

If Mr Platten was hit by a Ford or Holden then he would probably now have fractured thigh bones instead of ribs.

Taping sounds good. Was going to try this weekend, too much rain. Will give it a go next weekend.

Thanks

Last year while in Innaminka, I spoke to the people running the tyre shop up there. They swear by the Toyo tyre for the roads up there.

Thanks everyone. Decided to rebuild what I have got. Really do want to keep it all Suzuki.

Thanks

I have a 85 1.3l sierra. The carby blew a gasket recently and now is just not running right.

The thought that I had was should I;

a) rebuild the current carby
b) replace it with a later model
c) replace it with a holley

Any help would be appreaciated

Let us know what you think.

Very, very lucky mate. I've seen people die in roll overs like that. Makes you definately think about putting in a rollcage.

I need to remove my rear window from my hard top. I have had to replace my rear door and my new one is a lovely red, but the rest of the car is grey.

Any ideas on how to remove it so I can spray the door, without cutting the rubber?

Thanks

As a Paramedic this is one area that I think does get ignored. I think it very important for everyone to do a first aid course. It doesn't matter who you do it through, just do one and keep it current. Some organisations do offer remote first aid courses. An alternative is to ask around a find a ...

My 1.3L 1985 carby was running great till I blew a gasket in the carby, then it would not idle. That was fixed, then it would not idle on choke, but would when warm, now fixed, now it has a flat spot at around 1900 rpm.

I'm beginning to hate my carby!

A mate of mine is considering buying a GQ running LPG, and wants to know is LPG a problem with the GQ. We know someone who has cracked a head twice.

I've got a diesel so I can't help him.

Just got this off the QLD Transport site

"Leaf spring suspensions must not be raised by the use of extended shackles."

Is this the same in other states?

why don't you look up the SA laws as they will apply to you seeing as you live there not in QLD. QLD is probably the hardest place to do ...

Love it!

Can I get one for the zook??
