Am looking for any info or opinions on this as a buy.

Cheers in advance,
Alex.

Hrmmmm, im beguinning to think this might not be the right 4wd for me. My love and desire for a 70 series is clouding my mind, but i think i might be better waiting till i can afford a better example and getting something else in the meantime..

Back to the hunt...

Cheers Team!
Alex.

Hi Mate,

Sent you a PM with my email address, if you can flick through some pics and details that would be fantastic.

Cheers,
Alex

Cheers for the info, do you know the most likely places to find rust i should be looking for? Cart springs? (sorry for my ignorance) Do you know how hard it is to find door skins, carpets etc for these?

Cheers again,
Alex

Hi Mate, Whats the price and got any pics available? Also, where in the country are you located?

Cheers,
Alex

Hi Guys Finally getting another 4wd and flying to Chch this saturday to hopefully take home a 1uz hilux. Thing is its got 33s and no spare and im a little wary of driving it back to Aucks without one. Never spending any time down those ways in any state to remember things does anyone have recommenda...

Kinda thought of doing something simular to that when i had them on the lawn, use the weight of the quad to break the bead and get in there but useing the hose was worried would end up with water in the rims. Does anyone else have this issue? Random its happened to three tyres on the one outing.. :s...

loryda

Sadam - Cheers mate, yeah they are tubeless so i guess my next mission is strapping them to the bonnet and boot of the echo and trying to get them to the tyre shop haha.

PS. The Video ends just after i killed the tyre at the mud pit, can hear the air pissing out.. well i can

loryda

Okay so we went upto Woodhill last weekend and ended up with front/drivers tyre going flat in the mudpit, no dramas pulled it off and bolted on the spare - kept on trucking. Had a wicked time and headed home, got halfway there and noticed the other front one was going down, got to a gassy where it w...

Hey Guys Mates been looking around now for a second vechile while he gets his lexus all sorted, ive been trying to convice him to take the 1uz out of that and drop it in my truck :mrgreen: which he could then borrow but hes not buying it :lol: Hes looking for something smallish to save some gas, nee...

loryda

Yeah thats my thoughts as well, just another reason to mount hooks instead and leave the greenpin for other duties..

Cheers Guys
Alex.

P.S Still looking for someone to make up the rear bar, any welders out there looking for a cashie give me a bell.

loryda

Hi Dazza

Cheers for the info, I've decided on hooks now for that very reason, hate too see the shackle go flying, just out of curiosity, how do the shackles tend to break? Pull the pin out or..?

Cheers
Alex.

Hi Tomo They're 31" Kumho KL71's i got on special for $250 a tyre, haven't put too many kms under them yet but cant fault them so far, finally got to put them in the mud last weekend and didn't have any issues and in the wet they handle better than my daily driver. Good tyre. :wink: Cheers Alex.

There was a thread similar to this one on the fishing forums not so long ago, guys getting picked up without HT licences at boat ramps. Majority had no idea they were in HT country with the combined weight of their rigs, no fines had been dolled out at that point and they ended up getting the 5/0 an...

Ill be looking in another month or so, unfortunately cant stump up with the cash to cover it just yet, need to get the priorities sorted including the elecs in the hilux before i can commit to a winch at this stage.

Cheers

Ignition on is still sweet, tur...

loryda

Sweeeeeet :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Took the hubs off, adjusted the drums, checked everything else was sweet, hubs back on, reverse no problems, wheels back on, off the axle stands and off for a test thrash. (looks like pad was just getting caught up, odd only in reverse but..) End result = all good :wink...

loryda

Hi UBZ, about to do just that

its strange, shes been fine on the brakes for the last 500kms since they were done, need to be adjusted slightly but have now worn them in enough to do this.

Will jack her up and take a look.

Cheers
Alex
