I have a huge dent in my door because the limiter was non-existent and it swung open multiple times and struck the fender grrr! The wind caught it a couple of times so in your garage it's probably fine but I'd hate to mess up that beautiful paint job. Just do something to restrict it striking something.
 
Anyone have a supplier for door limiters? Only ones I have seen online are about $75.

I'd say a large sheet magnet, or series of them (for temporary use), to absorb light impacts or prevent unwanted scratching. For longer term, you could have the magnet sheets vinyl wrapped in a solid color (matching your vehicle) on their topside. ~Skydog.

Thanks for your concern fellows. But since the truck is under construction and not running I think they are safe.
 
you haven't seen me in my budgie smugglers (google it I dare you)

Oh, I know what budgie smugglers are, but I prefer to erase that image from my imagination :eek:

These are examples of the purty Oz pictures I was referring to

I have a box of good used ones.

EBI Cruisers Also had many good used limiters in stock last time I visited Steve there... and they won't be $75.

Yeah we get some good sunsets, If any of you guys get out this way head to Tasmania & put the Cradle mountains on your list.
I live on the Mornington Peninsula, Victoria, lots of great coastal driving or head a bit inland to the Alpine National Park. Them's some views
(might need a 40 to get around though);)
Just re-taped all the hinge threads & replaced the bolts, only 30 degrees Celsius so had to have a few cold ones:) My reward system
 
finally finished up... almost...

only waiting for correct air intake hosing and VSV for switching the engine off...

Per my signature line, you are welcome to call me at the shop to follow up. :)

I would quote you price from my website but we have had some technical issues for the last few weeks and apparently the HTML for that webpage did not completely transfer to the new server. I will have to look it up on my shop computer tomorrow and return your VM.

Thanks

Mark

Looking great man!!

Been along time coming... congrats... you might want to get a lid on the radiator overflow tank... especially if you get lots of dust/dirt/sand around your parts :)

Again congrats
 
Great Job Looking real good!!
 
Love seeing all these pics, but makes me a bit envious though seeing all these sweet rides. (one day)
Took the old girl out for a spin:steer: Rocks & rolls a bit (wheel alignment) Stuff rattles about , doors still need a bit of adjusting as just put new weather seals on. All good though:) Made new listo_O

on my short list of things to find/do. thankfully its the rainy season so no dust. and i figured let the overflow go there, even with no lid, its better than going over my fan and then all over my engine bay :love:

thanks for the kind words :) was a one week engine swap that turned into 2 months. but when i drive it now and im going more than twice as far on the same amount of fuel, and when i hear that turbo and blast by jeeps who think they cool, its worth every dime and second i put into it :D
