  1. Nothing works as well as a good steam cleaner...........and muc-off, gunk etc.
  2. Steve, (someone will confirm this but......) all 4.2's are hotwire injection and they are only serpentine from 1994 onwards
  3. Just out of interest, how much will the line speed increase roughly on a 12v winch that has 24v running through it? Is there a given percentage? TIA
  4. Thanks Jon, Thats super You will almost definitely hear from me as you have given me that offer now
  5. Yes, it has a clamp which fits onto your tow ball
  6. Could be g-wagon Their spec is here Bolt pattern 5H – 5.1" BCD Lug style M14 ball seat stud Hub bore diameter 3.31” (84.0 mm) Might be worth a check
  7. I had tyres that were around 33 1/2" tall and 10.5" wide, both front and back arches needed trimming but not excessively, and on articulation and steering no rubbing at all (steering stops could actually be wound in as they cleared the arms by a mile!) This was because my wheels had the perfect offset for this size tyre. The key to get larger tyres to tuck in your arch etc. is the offset of your wheels. This will differ slightly from tyre to tyre, size etc. HTH
  8. Or if you want something a little more aggressive..............My wheels and tyres!
  9. However, we had one and gave it alot of abuse, we even drowned it in 4ft of water, but it kept going. On the other hand, it was incredibly rattley and smoked so much you couldn't see behind
  10. Another quick question, can I run just one 24v battery or has it got to be two 12v?
  11. Thanks to all for your help, I think that I maybe able to do it! Mo, the winch motor will still be 12v, so running 24v through it speeds it up quite a bit. Although it doesn't do it alot of good Another little question, when the motor dies from having too much power from it, what is it internally that gives up? Anything replaceable, or just get a new one?
  12. pendle bike racks. We have the one that you fit the wheels and tyres into and keeps them separate from one and other. Superb, enough said
  13. cool, thats the answer I was looking for Now the important bit, how much money for a 24v alterntor?
  14. sorry badly worded. so to get the 24v I need two alternators, the second one being 24v? ATM Tony, the car will not be used to great extent, however as I am only young it will be built up and therefore used more. For now this is a start, a couple of years down the line and this winch maybe in the back
  15. I have just spent the last half hour searching for my answer of how to set up and make my front winch run on 24v? No luck, or am I just useless? No, answers required Can anyone be of any help please? I would like to run a warn xp on 24v for my front winch, however as I use the car very few times a year, maybe 2 challenges and some driving days, will the motor last for a fair duration?
  16. I will be filling my doors with expanding foam
  17. Exactly. I have just done mine. Not hard, just take your time. Don't work to a dead line, and do little by little
  18. I also have the allied rockathon beadlock wheels, and can second on steve that they are fairly light, as both the 35" mickey thompson and the wheel only weighs 46kgs
  19. Do you mean that the way that they are ribbed to hold the bead?
  20. Manifolds- not a lot more power, but more responsivness and freeer reving. Which I like
  21. Have been informed that K&N's can reduce more HP than gain if not correctly setup with the ecu and if they are not cleaned/serviced regulary, clog up and restrict air flow Was speaking to John from Brunel about this. ITG is a good one Also, the tubular 4 branch manifolds are a good upgrade, although the engine would benefit from setting up/fueling correctly for any system. Still works good though, I have the janspeed ones.
