Hmmm? Not sure Ben. I think a 15 will fit. Only the 4.8 came out with the larger disk.Quote:

righto. Do you know if 4.8 rotors will fit my h233b? If it can fit it means I can work other things into the budgetQuote:

Im trying to change the setup for the trip next year, so I have to start planning and saving for it now.
These are diffs off a 4.5 and will take my GQ centres in 4.6s no trouble at all. Straight bolt in. If you grabbed a set off a zd30 you'd get 4.3 centres and your lockers would go straight in. I assume your running 4.6s already though? Although your rock hoppers would probably mean some 4.3s would be sweet.
Is it only the Ute Cab that is your issue?
Mud runner, your truck is insane!
Sweet I will see what I can find. The compliance plate says I have 4.1's and I havnt changed them.Quote:

The base of the recaros have seen better days and need to be beefed up, they'll break your spine after about 6 hours lol
I'll have it all sorted by next year for meetup in the middle.
Then chase some GU zd30'diffs and you will get some 4.3s. The GUIV TD42 ran 3.9s so don't think you want to do that. Not sure about the 4.5s although these ones have 3.9s in them. Regardless your 3rd member will just go straight in as a carrier so no big deal.Quote:

Your running an empty tray most of the time though hey? Loaded for touring will make a difference to mate.
We had the same shocks. So I would have encountered similar situations.Quote:

Well had a big day! George generously gave me a day helping me swap out the front diff in favour of a very tidy braced GU front diff. We swapped out the centre with the Airlocker and its all bolted up. Had a couple of hiccups but looking good.
Heading over to George's workshop tomorrow to fit Healy's clutch and gear box then back to the GQ on Monday tomgetnthenrear diff swapped over too. No where near as big a job as swapping the front out.
Cheers George! your a legend mate.
I can smell it. For Sure. Some people say the GQ is an urban myth. I dont believe it at all..... You just need to have a worthy rig to tread the same ground as it. as we both do lmaoQuote:
