About 6 months ago the cruiser wouldn't turn off. We eventually located the culprit which was a leaking clutch vacuum booster. I thought my problems were over until I tried to buy one. They don't seem to carry much at Toyota these days. The thing that is special about this booster is its mounted ins...

Looking for an air con pump too.
Clutch seized on mine during the weekend.

Was unable to turn it off after pumping up 2 sets of tyres. Cut the belt and head on home.
Was a great Motu safari Recce run though.

Hey Bro. Suffering from a leaking vacuum booster on the BJ74. My only problem is the vacuum booster is mounted on the inside of the firewall not the outside like every other truck I've seen. Can you have a squize inside the truck above the pedal box and see if there is a vacuum booster tucked up und...

Will do our best to avoid cut over. hate picking up sticks and so does the rest of the crew. Most of the cut over has been planted and is a no go area. Will use the remaining areas of forest at the far end of the block plus the real tough section close to the pheonix rd gate. This is known as the pl...

We are trying to push through the land access as quick as possible.
Bare with us. Will try my best to have actual dates by end of week.

Hello. Current thinking is for a September event. We may have permission to run as late as November but could run into an early fire season risk. Plus it would be warm and that wouldn't be Mamaku at all. We'll avoid Taupo 1000 weekend but not expecting a major cross over of competitors Early days ye...

Yeah, I've been on good behaviour.

I reckon mine is more than 2 cents worth. At least its based on actual experience not just opinion!

Its a pretty good idea to replace the lock tab washer after a couple of goes. Once you've bent a tab over and then bent it back, the metal usually has stress cracks in it. With five tabs on them, you can usually get a couple of turns out of it without using the same tab twice. It's one tab forward a...

Jungle

Not sure that you've got the whole story.

I thought there was another event being run at the same time. So there was an issue with paths being crossed with motorbikes. That might hurt!

I'm off down there this weekend for 2 days of 4 wheeling.

Are you going to tell them about the left over bolt Dan?

I was just talking to a work mate who had a sad run with his 87 surf. He was doing an oil and filter change at home. Dropped the oil and pulled off the filter. Went to put the new filter on, purchased earlier and it wouldn't fit. Wrong one. So he packs it in for the day and heads off. Later that day...

Hey guys and girls.

On behalf of the Geyserland 4wd club I'd like to let you know that we have decided to take a year off from running the Rotorua Winch Challenge. No winch challenge this year.

We're gonna go 4 wheeling instead.

I remember paying $1000 for one event. Got a cool shirt though. You guys have got it cheap. And just so you don't get too far off track. The coffee kart and food kart at the Rotorua event was organised so that we were paid a commission on what was taken over the counter by the public. Yet again the ...

Welcome to the world of NZ winch challenges.

They'll all be ringing each other up to find out who's going and whether it's worth going depending on who said they might be going.

Is all motorsport like this???

The mud drags sound great. Bit worried about the open paddock, slippery surfaces and trucks going in all directions. Sounds like a demolition derby with 2.5 tonne vehicles. And just a reminder. Indemnity forms don't stand up in court. They just mean that you didn't do your best to identify the hazar...

Has anyone had a bad experience with this company? I'm just hearing comments now about people bringing their 4wds to Rotorua to have lexus conversions done and the work is not complete, exisiting engines sold and then having the vehicle stolen whilst in transit. They also keep the 13K or so that is ...

From that image it looks like a beam axle front. Hard to say. Pity that are independent in reality. That actually looks ok with some real feet and ground clearance.

Gotta have tyre's sitting out that far so the bulgy lights don't get rubbed off on the first bank it leans on.

I have yet to go to an event where some one did not drive "out side the course" Walking or driving the stage first would make this virtually imposable. To start with, I have no idea what you mean. The only reason that we hold this event is because of the racing guys in the club. If we had...

What classes as "hitting" a tree? Is that any contact at all? or just delibertly running into them? And is it all trees or just plantation pines? Hitting a tree can be as little as rubbing up against it while winching or bouncing into one while on the track. If we end up with a tree that ...
