    Thank you all for those replies. Really love that you all are sharing your knowledge with a european offroader :love:. I will try to keep you updated which route i go with the sensor. By the way here is a video of the engine change which has been done a few weeks back:

    TH350 - where can i measure oil temperature

    Hi hardline community, Matthias here from germany. We just updated our "Avalanche" Buggy to LM7 5.3 V8 and TH350 transmission. I really need to monitor trans oil temperature in some races and i would like to fit a sensor (the best would be 1/8 NPT thread) somewhere into the transmission or at...

    Prototype from Germany (Avalanche)

    Too bad, but this is not possible in germany. There are specific offroad parks where you can take your rig, but driving in the woods without a valid registration would cost you a lot of money if they catch you. There are a few "trail riding" events but not a lot, probabyl because what i have...

    What i do is more trailing with driving through gates (as you see in the video above). Speed is used pretty seldom. We have a 5 gate system. There is a maximum time per section to drive through all gates. You receive points for driving reverse, hitting gates, hitting the outside of the section...

    I am pretty impressed of how good those portal axles hold up to the abuse. But i also dig the US Rockbouncer on Portal Axles: () Some axle pictures:

    Prototype from Germany (Avalanche)

    Time to update this.... Avalanche now has wider 404 Unimog Axles (with Portals), newly configured Airshocks and new 40" Maxxis Trepadors. At the moment we are in the process of switching to Volvo 5-cylinder turbo engine insetad of the VW VR6. We also change the brake system completely because we...

    Samurai twin stick and brake line lock

    I know this post is really old but does anybody know if the above mentioned line lock would also work the other way around? So the idea is to press the button (while driving slow) for the left wheel, then push the brake pedal, then only the right side breaks should work....

    ARB Compressor strange noise [Video]

    A few months ago it had a very clean quieter sound. Now it got a lot louder and sounds more "nasty". I am really not sure how to describe it.

    Clean PSC Reservoir filter

    Sorry for the really late answer. We have some problems with belt squeeling when the steering is at full lock and that was one of the ideas to help that, but it didnt change anything. I still have no real idea why it locks up on full steering angle. ???

    ARB Compressor strange noise [Video]

    Hi all, i have a ARB Compressor for the lockers in my Portal Axle Buggy. Everytime it compresses air it sounds really weird since a few months now. I already disassemled it and cleaned it. Also checked for loose fasteners but everything seems okay and in place. The noise must come from the...

    Prototype from Germany (Avalanche)

    Thank you. Yes the LED Lights indicate if the steering is centered. A pretty simple and good working way to get your rear axle straight. We do some changes because of the overall width. We have smaller axles now, this is why we are driving with turned rims. Now we turn them as they should be and...

    Prototype from Germany (Avalanche)

    For the first year it did pretty good but we are doing changes to the axles at the moment. For detailed pictures i think our Facebook page is the best source: http://www.facebook.com/team4moffroad I am going to King of the Hammers again this year to see the US side of off-road motorsport ;-)
