wheels sold!
Mines a GU, but I needed some longer bolts in the back, including the baby seat anchors. I can't remember the size but after visiting a nut/bolt supplier, he found a strange mix of metric fine thread...
I'm not a diesel expert, but maybe leaky injector/s? As above, the check valve was put in to treat a symptom (fuel returning back to the tank). If the injectors are leaky you could lose pressure...
I don't really do much sand driving. but autos are great for rocky stuff as you have so much more control being able to feed the power on.
I very much doubt you'd be getting anywhere near 14 l/100k out of a TB45. I get 18l/100 out of my tb48 on the highway taking it easy. put stuff on the roof rack, plus camping gear and that goes up to...
Maybe something like this: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/FORKLIFT-MAIN-SERVICE-VALVE-3-8-male-outlet-to-LPG-SERVICE-TAP-1110964-/272312144796
Just a simple shutoff valve. you would have one on the...
Which bushes are you talking about? If radius arm bushes, do you have drop boxes?
Most go with standard rubber bushes.
Sorry to hear that. Last company I worked (contract) for had been in business over 40 years. Due to cheep Chinese imports we could no longer compete. A couple of old blokes there had been with this...

On my GU, I run a 2" lift with ARB sway bar extension brackets for the rear (no idea if they fit a GQ) which cost around $17. And the front I just disconnected one side. Seams to flex better with the...

Yep. That's what they promised...cheaper (rego) green slips. I paid $640 for third party green slip last year and now they are $725. And this is after the gov just a few months ago said they were...
Yeah we get royally screwed in nsw. I just had a look at the cost to rego this year (Sydney). $512 for rego, plus $725 (cheapest greenslip)...$1237!
Yeah, I did the same with mine 3.54 to 4.11 with e-locker. I'm on 33s, and it drive so much better. fuel consumption has improved 1-2 lph as well. Haven't gotten around to correcting the speedo...
I seem to remember you offering discounted roadside assist as an add-on to a policy. Do you still offer this? My NRMA roadside is due, and wondering if it's worthwhile spending another $200 with them.
I'm not really aware of any problems. The only thing i'd suggest is to turn off your ac to avoid your thermo fans turning on during the crossing.
The 4.8 dosen't have a dissy. The coil packs are up high on top of the motor (connected directly to the spark plugs). I've had no problems with water crossings up to say 1 meter (guard height). If...

Or if that doesn't work, maybe you could try some of that steel epoxy putty. Build it up from the inside, and file down to blend with the rim lip.
MB, I'm not sure what coils the installer put in. Just gave him a list of the gear I have, he talked to Dobinsons who supplied the coils. The front was easy...steel bar and winch, so height went up...
Well standard is 555mm for front and 560mm back for a GU1 to 3. Mine (2" lift) is 610 up front and 620 back. But mine's a new lift (6 months old).
Before spending lots of money on new suspension/new car, I'd have a look at your tyre pressures you're running. You mentioned you are running 36psi front, 38 psi rear on ATs. Personally I'd say...
Was watching 4wd pro tips last night, and watched an 80 series cruiser (solid axles) effortlessly clammer up a steep rutted track. It was followed by an ifs colarado, which struggled, then went a bit...
That's some seriously good information there, Jay see! Why don't you give the engine flush a go? What you're trying to do, is dissolve the buildup of varnish on the steel LSD clutch plates. Just...
