Outer Limits 4x4 Board

i put Aisan TF Rodeo free wheeling hubs on my Frontera (fitted perfectly!) from my understanding these hubs would fit Jackaros as well.

my new Hunjy!!.... 3"lift, 305/70/16 BFG muds,




Matt,

Hey guys,

my 100 series needs carster corention done after fiting a 3inch lift,

whats the difference between the two when it come to fixing caster?

does one have advantages over the other?

thanx,

Matt

sorry..

solid front end

TJM make a 70mm lift kit for the 100 series, ive been told that i wont need any caster correction with this kit fitted.
I'm a bit skeptical of this, as i was always under the understanding that anything over 50mm will need some caster correction done.

so what are your thoughts and opinions of this ...

the break in reverse not in forward...

I can asure you they can break going forward at 1500rpm with both wheels on the ground.
Fitting a locker won't make the teeth on the crownwheel stronger.
105s is still a great truck & when the front diff is fixed it's the best.


can i ask what size tyres ...

..depends how much u wanna lift it?.
MUs are torsion bar front end – so just winding up the original torsion bars would get 40mm.
The rear end is leaf sprung....so some drop shackles would do the trick.
That would be a very cheap option!

there are also 3ich kits that Calmini make which use ...

yeah the frontera sport has a 4 link and discs

thanks mate,

.....good answer

With standard LCs having part time 4wd does this cause increased ware one the rear pinion and diff, compared to an AWD variant that divides torque between two diffs?


-I know the 1HZ doesn’t put out huge numbers… but with an aftermarket turbo added would the drivetrain cope as well as an AWD ...

I think the little 2L would struggle way too much with 33s...but yor asking what would look best.....and that woud be the 33s

Im not aware of any performance chips available, if your seeking more power i would recommend u take out the pre muffler and change the big muffler to less restrictive sports type. It made a heap of difference on mine -better throttle response and more power, alot better to drive.

Hi Mark,
The 2.0l is a rough old thing, mine makes all sorts of noises. After a service i notice a differace, becomes a little more smoother and quiteter.
But i couldnt tell u if somethings wrong with out hearing it -just give it a good sevice ...by 105k it would need the timing chain done, if not ...

Ask this guy.

I was under the understanding that the Mu has differnt ratios to my Frontera Sport?
.....Otherwise it woud be perfect timing with the situation im in

yeh they are taking it back. They relised there mistke with the locker. and havnt caused any dramas.

Well dispite what 4wd systems said ,the Lokka DOSN'T fit the Frontera Sport :twisted: . I found out the hard way....
So with the planetry gears alread stuffed and the diff apart, ive decided to weld the front.....what have i got to loose :roll:
Its going to be intersting finding out how long the ...

Thaks for that!
some very helpfull info there.

Im jut after a truck that is stonger than my frontera, im sick of breaking diffs ....and power would be nice as well, lol
I dont plan to modify it to the extreames , just thinking of ,31"muds , rear locker and 2inch lift.

Hi guys!
im looking in to buying a 3.0l swb Paj. NH or NJ i think?
But my major concirn is the drivetrain strenght, ive heard rumors about rear axles snaping in the rough stuff....Is this a common problem? and is there any other isues that arise from heavy of road use which i should know about?

any ...

compare it to the down travel on this pic...

hey Mitch , her's a shot of mine at full flex... note the up travel in the guard

I spoke to 4wd systems and they confirmed that the lokka will fit

They quoted $ 620 deliverd.

Thanks for that mate,
I Never knew an ARB air locker was avalibe for the front... tho im not going to get my hopes up buy the souds of it....

Another question , Would the Lokka system replace my chiped planetry gears?

..well the front end dramas continue for my car!

This time i have chiped teeth in the Planetry gears...

I konw this question has been touched on befor , but will a 4WD Systems Lokka fit a Frontera Sport?

I know Lokka is avalible for Rodeos , Jakaroos, and MU, but i was under the impession that ...

Sounds similar to an issue i had with my auto hubs. When in 1st and 2nd low range, with all the touqe going through the front , the hubs made 'baning' and 'clinking' sounds when they were under load. but once you got going all was fine.
The problem ended up beeing the circlips which came loose, i ...

...

...few more...

..

ran a club trip up to the Ourimbah and Dooralong areas of Watagans a few weeks back with the 4wd club.
Here are a few shots of the Fontera playing...

It seems like these extremest movements by people like Scruby are gaining momentum.....its always the vocal minority that gets what they want!
