Re: Any KZJ78 for sale????????

Gotta have patience. One will pop up one day, usually a day or two after you've gone out and got something else.

Re: Advice on A/Ts

I got a set of lightly used KOs for a bloody good price, set of 5 as well. Love them, look so much better. Firmer ride so a few more rattles but all good

Replaced them with ko2 wasn't really fussed on price because they work out cheaper in the long run.


Cheers for that, they look the business too

Re: Advice on A/Ts

We've had STTs on our 70 series every time. I do like coopers. These will be going on a 100 series
Yeah got a quote for KO2s, pricey! Anyone know what a set of Cooper STs go for and if anywhere still stocks the old Bfg KO?

Advice on A/Ts

After a set of good A/Ts, 285/75/16.
Looking at Cooper ST Maxx and BFG KOs, both pretty pricey by the looks of things.
Anyone got experience with either of these?

What's good around Palmy North?

Moving up to Palmerston North area soon. Looking to get myself a 100 series cruiser after a couple of 70s and a 90.
It might get a lift and some aggressive ATs but that's about it. Where are good spots to look around?

Cheers

1HZ Rev Gauge and Idle isssues

Hi all, truck is a HZJ73.
Start it up first thing in the morning, rev gauge won't work for 5 minutes or so then kicks in. Sender issue?
Also the idle is fluctuating. Some times sits at 600-700, other times up around 800.
New to this engine so unsure, cheers

Re: 96 diesel SWB Manual Prado

Took the ball and spring out, made it free boost again. While I was installing the tee, I removed the intercooler and blew the crap out of it. A lot of it. Temps have dropped significantly. Water temp from 88 to 83 and exhaust temp from 350 ish to around 280. Unsure what to do with the tee next. It ...
