The wheel size is larger to suit the housing Ben gave me. Only by 1mm but, knowing my luck, I will just root something if I change too much. Getting housing with the everything the same, just the intake diameter different seems easier.Quote:

I'm at your peril Matty. Whats your thoughts with this housing? I haven't ordered this part yet. I don't know anywhere near enough to go buggerising around changing turbo bits mate.
I just thought to simply change over the housing to the larger intake and thats it.
Hey Mat. Do you know the Cat part number for the battery that fits under the bonnet of the GU? My battery is stuffed, I rang CAT and the guy I spoke to was piss farting around with batteries not even close to what would fit. Looking at their website and no wonder, its one page per battery so it takes for ever to look though their range.
Anti- surge wont effect anything. A/r wont effect is operation but will allow a little more volume for a given psi. If the wheel is 1mm smaller then it wont work. Clearance has to be less than 0.010".
Just run 4" all the way from airbox to turbo and just use a short 3-4" silicon joiner at the turbo.
Not off the top of my head mate. I would have to look as well. They should go up by size so shouldnt have to through them 1 by 1Quote:

Excuse my ignorance on this. I would have thought a shot like this with no protection over the shaft is very susceptible to damage isn't it?Quote:

Yea they do sell the rubber covers seperate not sure if they come with them I didn't ask.
The armada extreme on the rear came with but pic didn't show the covers
Cant you buy different coloured "boots" to suit, cause asQuote:

In all honesty I think the shocks in the patrol are quite well protected..
They are behind the axles, springs and everything else on both front and rear..
You only have to check out an old shock to see the pitting and sandblasting that occurs. Obviously its different depending on the type of terrain you're on. Heaps of gravel roads at speed would certainly mean stone chips. I reckon for the relatively cheap price of the boots, compared to the shocks, they would be a good bit of protection.
>>>tappin from tassie
Yeah good point there. Just look at an old shock....Quote:

Looking forward to mounting them up. If the bar fits i will buy one for the GUIV too i think.
Thanks Paul always a pleasure mate.
No they're not. The shafts themselves are as robust asthey can be. But they are still either chromed or micro polished. Finer dust particles will easily damage the shaft surface, they arn't that well protected at all up front.... I know because the shaft boots I asked for with my kings that never showed up would have stopped the pitting on one of my front shocks. But I bent that shock so I dont care that much anymoreQuote:
