Love the owl! Any problems towing your trailer in these sorts of conditions mate?
Im into it. Theres lots of potential content for future issues. I'm looking into chassis bracing right now to prevent the coil spring tower cracking problem, I reckon people would be interested in...
Yes that dusk photo is stunning, top stuff
that turbine dump pipe looks MEAN! nice
Aluminium has fatigue limit issues. In fact some types of aluminium alloys will crack eventually from the load of feathers falling on it. It'll take a long time but it will happen. Steel is also an...
Its my understanding that the early gu failures was also caused by poor piston design. I believe that oil flow to the pistons was improved in a later improved design.
To get maximum articulation, you need:
1. Replace the front radius arms as they bind up. Something like the superiour engineering superflex radius arms
2. Replace the rear lower control arms with...
In NSW, its routine during pink slip time for the assessor to get out the tint slide to confirm its OK. Also, there is rules about tinting of the front windscreen. Cant hit the wipers on operation...
So reading the manual on my new patrol, I see in some countries on GUs theres an electric rear anti sway bar on off feature. We dont get this in Aus. Has anyone thought about or actually installed...
With my new GU patrol, when I filled both tanks and drove it to the point I needed to transfer from sub to main, I found later a small amount of diesel in the fuel filler hole, kinda wet, not a large...
A Patrol is a large and heavy vehicle with poor aerodynamics. I'd say the fuel economy with an ls1 in it would be terrible. For me, I'd reco the diesel. Plus diesel is easier to transport and more...
Interesting idea I like that.
I bent the front diff in my old gq doing jumps, I now avoid jumps ;)
I just get out the sprinkler and move that around underneath it for awhile.
I dunno, in my experience having water tanks outside the cabin means the water gets way too hot. Im buying the offroad systems water tank that goes in between the rear seats and the half height cargo...
Yes, thankyou very much Tony. I've now got a plan to move the child seat into the 3rd row, I looked everywhere but the way youve got that red screwdriver shows how obvious it was. :)
Fixed a blown fuse from the ciggy lighter / acc outlets. Chucked the defective phone charger that caused it. Caressed the steering wheel and got a strange look from the wife ;)
I like the weed sprayer idea. I use a hand pump I picked up from a car parts place but the issue I have with it, is that it only fits 1.5l whereas the weed sprayer has more capacity. Think Ill get...
Revolution race gear sell high g force clamps for this sort of stuff, very strong mounts
So lets see, hmmm
Angle grinder el chepo from supercheap with discs $30
Rear tailight, panel work, paint $1300
Tough choice!
Perhaps in these modern times, this is a modern form of evolution and keeping the gene pool healthy? ;) hehe
The thing is, driving is inherently dangerous too. People easily loose the perspective that even hitting head on to a stationary object at 60 klm/h, even the safest cars around you stand a good...
thanks very much for the info
Hmmm Im not so sure about a simple valve for boost control. I dont know if this is applicable or not but on my rx7 I used an electronic boost controller that holds the wastegate tight and shut until...
Clean air, fuel and oil, thats the key I say. For me, I'm fitting:
1. snorkel
2. responsive engineering water watch (doesnt provide a fuel retriction so is compatible with common rail setups)
3....
