Re: Hilux trailer queen

Hey Tim, Any chance you could measure the thickness of that crown wheel for me, should be either ~22mm at its fattest point or more like ~25+mm at its thickest point... Would be quite interested to compare the Nitro gear to a few I imported from Asia: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=...

Re: Engine braking noise

Found the problem, was a flap of metal that had bent over into the path of the driveshaft, was right beside where the rubber center bearing support was, so on a hard downshift it would move against it and touch...

Re: Engine braking noise

Not really, the sound seems to be coming from a bit further back than the clutch, I could certainly mask the problem by driving slightly differently, but the noise shouldn't be there in the first place so something isn't quite right..

When im downshifting into either 3rd or 2nd mainly, as this seems to be the most resistance on the engine braking, just since yesterday morning the ute seems to have decided to ...

Re: Avoca River/ Basins hut

How far can you get up without having a really capable rock crawler style truck?
Say just 33's and a body lift sort of thing, not wanting to screw up a truck?

Sold my bush basher but keen to have a drive up there some day for a bit of a hunt.. don't want to wreck the good wagon though!

Re: 1kz-te rebuild

EGR removal is a bit of a pain but if you're taking off the head then it should be no worries at all. Here is a guide to doing it, not super clear but you get the idea. http://www.toyotasurf.asn.au/techsite/egr.htm Dump pipe is definitely a good idea on these, I had a couple of KZN185's, one of them...

Nope, that photo is from the guy who he brought it off on TM about a month or two earlier, he's pretty gutted to loose his new hunting wagon! Looked at them for ages before snapping that one up.

Nothings bloody safe these days, I'm sure since the earthquakes all the scumbags have moved from modified cars from the potholes etc and now heaps of them are into stealing trucks etc for parts for their Waimak bashers.
