    The 4.3 swap topic.

  4. all the best MM fight till the end
  5. you need to resize your pics they shouldnt need to be over 100k per pic down load 'l view' or 'irfan view' off the net, & resize em in there, then post away best format is .jpg both programs will change this as well if you tell it to
  6. i was gonna say o2 and cat aswell
  7. read this Mike had huge troubles with his, but he fixed it in the end could be a few things, have a good read of the above post and go from there
  8. not sure on price but calmini are the ducks nuts apparently lots of people run rancho's thirdly have you checked local 4wd/suspenion places for good quality local stuf i have local stuff on my rig and love it. i think my four shockies were around $200-250 mark
  9. i would recomed the second way of doing it - take the circlip off on the cross member end. once the circlip is off tap the adjuster arm off of the torsion bar (ie tap the adjuster arm towards the rear of the vechile). then twist the adjuster arm out of the cross member (it can be done!!) then you are free to remove the cross member do you plan on taking the tranny out of the car? just a heads up, having just removed the tranny and t case from my pathy, they are RATHER heavy. you can drain all fluids to reduce some of the weight if you are going to take them out of the car you are gonna need a couple good jack/chassis stands and a mate to help you man handle it all.
  10. if your gonna spend the money why not get something way better?
  11. starter solenoid maybe showing signs of age or may have been gunked up you could get it tested at an auto sparky
  12. if only your boots are split why not just replace the boots? i did mine a few months back do a search for cv/cv boots there was a stack of info and a ok write up on it search is at the top of the screen under the blue banner

  16. kick a$$ alright, just big $$$
  17. if you are getting the whole 3" lift package then you should be fine i would recomend a steering stabiliser as well if youve got the cash......... get the replacement steering kit aswell your path would be unstoppable then....

    new tires

    i dont reckon bfg's are worth the boxes they come in (but thats just me) cooper at's have an 80 000kms warrenty excellent at tyre, probably the most aggressive at you will ever see brigestone duellers at's are very good also
  19. i know 88 has put the heights in somewhere keep searching it there somewhere
  20. you can always do the chalk line test
  21. ive read around on few boards now that for people who want to start with one mod and want to get most bang for buck, the general trend is a traction mod over a lift mod ie start with a good set of tyres - 31's easy for a pathy or maybe a locker however with all the stuff we know here you can do suspension and body lifts fairly cheaply so that might be the way to start with small outlay. depends what you rather first i say good tyres (cooper, bridgestone or even kumho mud terrains!!!!!!!) then suspension/body lift, then a locker for the rear diff
  22. chromo what condition is your trans in and how much air flow can get to the cooler?
  23. it not the filter its the oil cooler completely bypass the stock cooler get the biggest & best oil cooler possible from a local auto trans shop and use that instead!
  24. which one the 4.2L or the 3L i would like to see you fit either of em, it would be a tight fit awesome tho if you can get one cheap enough, WITH diesel pump, & can be bothered making it work then go for it. nothing a custom bell housing would fix
  25. reply in garage section
