im in the process of fitting a 3.8 in my lux.. few thinngs ive found. A body lift will help in alot of ways, for exhaust clearance and clearance from the air intake and heater hoses at the firewall.. Ive found that if you have a diesel hilux your options are beter as alot of other toyota donks drop...

LIFTED

88Lux sounds like your heading for the 3.8L? Just another pointer with this. I cant remember the fine details but if you go for the eco-tech and run factory exhaust manifolds they point out towards the chassis rails and take up alot of room...on the other hand i've seen the (non eco tech) runs ex-ma...

Some things to think about with converting Diesel trucks to Petrol EFI.Firstly the diff ratio is designed for a Diesel not a Petrol you may want to ask the owners who have converted,speed vs revs on motorway ect if its road legal as you mention getting a cert. The next thing is EFI engines run diffe...

Fact is mate,all depends what you want to spend on vehicle and what you have left to spend on 4x4 equipment. Spend all your cash on the truck and you will have no recovery gear and a highway truck. Buy cheap truck and spend the rest on gear! You'll have more fun. I spent 5k on SWB 5spd Patrol with b...

I have patrol swb for sale on trade me. Have a look and make an offer if your interested.Awesome truck and many more hours and dollars spent but you can only fit so much detail on one page with trade me.I worked for suzuki as mechanic for years and am a big fan! but you wont find many if any that wi...

LIFTED

Maybe able to fit the wheels under but a body lift also gives you a beter approach and departure angle from the ground its only 50mm but sometimes this is all you need to clear someting,center of gravity? body lifts raise the center of gravity only slightly because most of the weight is engine gearb...

drain the excess trans oil out its not to hard undo one of the hoses that goes to the radaitor start motor with the hose in a bottle have a helper to start the motor as if you took the hose that feed back to the trans when the motor start the oil will shoot out of the radaitor pipe and make a mess ...

Well had a fairly productive day today..... Changed the oil in both front and rear diff and changed the auto transmission fluid. The front diff oil was sweet but the rear diff oil was like chocolate milk. So I guess it was just as well I asked the question, otherwise I might not have changed it so ...

Worked alongside Jeep workshop while working with Contintal cars for years and found the mechanics always adding additives to the diffs and replacing them due to wear on the pinion and crown wheel.This additive was required with the new Jeeps up to 2006 at the time.Most people towing with the autos ...

(Commin problem) Replaced my fan with new one from trade me,the old one was in shocking nick but still held together.To options in the tb42 engine so measure between the bolts if your replacing them.

LIFTED

Mate you need to leave it with the Mechanics so they can try find the problem.Asking them to find the noise and quote any repairs before fixing should save them blowing your budget.But remember, be prepaired to pay for time they spend looking for the fault and purhaps give them a budget here so they...

How much you want for it? Maybe interested depends.

LIFTED

GUESS AT THE END OF THE DAY THE WHOLE WOF SYSTEM IS TO SOME POINT OPINION BASED IF ITS NOT BLACK OR WHITE! IN THE VIRM,THE VIRM GIVE'S AN INSPECTOR THE RIGHT TO FAIL SOME THINGS, THAT OTHERS ARE NOT CONCERNED ABOUT OR CANT BE STUFFED WITH,THINGS LIKE NON SLIP ON PEDDLE RUBBERS.SUCH AS... TAIL LIGHT ...

LIFTED

Now i see what your getting at. The reason my bold title(Lvv not required for body lifts) is not just opinion its because the virm does not state all 4wd vehicles of any age, make or weight require Lvv.Some mention I have found on surtain vehicles such as after 1/1/03 changes that may affect frontal...

1,Cant compare rubber mounts to steel sorry. 2,Depends on the dia of the new mount/steel bush,as this will change the surface area contacted on the body and chassis.Some people have box type spacers to get around your issue. 3,Driver gets to the point when in the case of a crash for this lift to pos...

LIFTED

Not going to blow my trumpet! but if I was to explain my history with vehicles and mods it would make the 2nd to last statement a laughing matter indeed,not to get personal.Each individual lift i have an opinion on, in this case the vehicle has 8.8 bolts stronger than o.e. anyway and is only 2'' lif...

Interesting find pitty Bruce, the LTSA trainer/inspector who spends his days testing wof inspectors like myself,didnt share the same opinion.Thats what im getting at.Just relaying what I was told not from Mc donalds but the Law of inspectors himself.You show amendment topics this is not a detail of ...

LIFTED

And now we are back to square one. As I stated 1.no statment of height or lifting in virm.Yes 100mm from ground is the limit As confirmed by my wof tester who tested me on tuesday last week. 2.The only way an inspector can fail it is if he/she considers it unsafe.Such as,a very good reason as to why...

LIFTED

Note post was for body lifts...Suspension lifts are under the same hat in regards to height. At present no mention on suspension lifts in regards to height or lifting by replacing components with suitable aftermarket or genuine equipment.In other words its ok to replace springs and shocks and adjust...

LIFTED

Just to clear the air on body lifts and give some of you guys a pinch of the wof inspectors advise. 1.At the moment the wof virm has nothing about vehicle height or body lifts that condems them,the only mention to vehicle height is :no point lower than 100mm to the road (updates are often added to t...

Hope you are only trying the Bridgstone Dueler A/T for size only. Great tyre for on road A++++,no noise at all but these are more like 70/30 not 40/60.I had new Dueler A/T's on 4x4 good for highway,road and gravel not much more! Got stuck in places my car would go! Keep in mind what the manifucture ...

Hey just something to consider mate,have you checked the width of the sti seat mounts? I gave my factory seats up for some mint old fxgt seats as they are very narrow in the runner's and almost bolt straight in on top of custom raised mounts.Nice fit between the b-piller and center console too.I spe...

Bit off the topic but get a laugh from this.Since ive been managing a garage in Avondale, some local user's have been washing cars behind my workshop and leaving rubbish on the ground including the empty car wash container and my fire hose lying across the gravel area behind the site for me to pick ...

Sounds easy enough,they are leaking at the back of the swivel hub but i realy only want to replace what needs doing to stop the leak? Will the inner seals stop the leak or do i realy have to go futher.

The front diff seals are now leaking oil so bad its leaking and spraying all over the front brake's.Just to confirm what ive been told.If i remove the front brake calliper's,locking hubs remove the axle's and pry out the seals inside each end of the front diff i will be able to replace the leaking s...
