Thanks tallsam66, Out of interest how did you replace/repair yours once it was confirmed it was the spill control valve? I have heard that a new and even recon'd inejector pump is some serious $$$. Can you buy the spill control valve separately? I guess you still need to get a mechanic to pull the ...

Possibly Spill Control Valve ... mine did that once ... slowly got worse and worse until it wouldn't start at all. It doesn't always throw up a fault code .
If you put a meter on it resistance should read between 1 & 2 ohms.

Sounds like fun ... ill know for sure closer to the time.
For Tailings winches and chainsaws are now essential ... over last Cpl of years has been a lot of windfall and scouring of the track with rain.

Throw an LN106 chassis under it.
You will get much better flex than doing an SAS on a KZN130 chassis. The IFS chassis is flat at the front where the suspension bolts on but LN106 is curved so you can have it sitting lower and you will also get more flex.

Its been there for years.

I feel the best thing about facebook is its easy to posts pics ... posting pics here is a bit of a bitch...yeah I know some will say its easy here ... but easier on fb etc.

ARB don't make them they are carling switches.

Mine get hot too ... just how it is ... its just the bulb heating up.

Seal for 33mm axles from SAECO Wilson part # TC12512C

I went into SAECO Wilson today and ordered some 33/50/10 mm seals they will arrive Monday with luck but most likely Tuesday. They are double lip , nitrile etc ... but don't have the locating lip .... ill just have to be very careful installing them. I thought of getting an insert made up as I ...

im running 33mm longfields in a KZJ7x front diff ....so needs to be 50mm outside . .. apparently you can get them genuine ... but cant find a part number.

That seal is 33mm inside diameter but only 44mm outside diameter .. so too small .. that's seal is what LJ71 uses.

Does anyone know what the Toyota part number is for the 33mm seals ? 35mm seal is 90310-35010 Hi, Following on from above I ordered and have now got custom length axles from Longfield to suit the LJ7x and KZJ7x. The earlier model ones should be a direct fit as the oil seal diameter (33mm) should be ...

Awesome ... you mentioned GPS best thing ive ever brought is a good one that has free map updates and also lane selection .... essential when there are multiple lanes going in multiple directions.

Ive got one of these , but didn't pay that much

Put them on 8 inch rims ... will stay on much better at low pressures and will also be taller.

Don't waste your time and money on 2nd hand get a genuine Toyota new ... youll also need new head bolts.

I use Nulon 83W-140 from supercheap ... got it in both diffs ... quiets down my auto locker ... so prob be good for noisy gear box too .... around $50 for 4 litres

Don't waste ya time with a hand held ... get a 5watt vehicle mounted radio.

North Canty club is going up on weekend of 21st of July so don't go that weekend or you wont get a bed in hut.

Get a good safe tank ... the gas tanks I deal with at work are loaded to between 250 & 300 MPa ( Mega Pascals ) that's 36000 & 43000 PSI. That's a bomb. NO dive shop will fill an untested tank. Cant believe you want to bang & bash around something that will kill you when it fails. If you don't have ...

how can you tell the centre diff is not engaging? The orange light between the 4 green wheels isn't illuminated on the dash, and when I took it out to the beach (which is when I noticed there was an issue), I got stuck and only one rear wheel was spinning, which would confirm that the center diff ...

Make sure the leaver isn't fouling on the body. This exact problem can occur with surfs when body lifted. You might have to grind a bit off body to give the leaver clearance to go fully into low range.

gee you guys are all paying way to much for your tools ...they are all made in china so go direct to china to get them. Ive brought lots of stuff off http://www.aliexpress.com Take you time & have a good look before buying as some stuff is better and cheaper than others but at the prices hard to go ...

Check for wear on the collar that the seal runs on. Also check that the last guy didn't chop the collar off with a grinder and nick the axle. I had one like this and it leaked down between the press fit collar and the axle. A small bead of gasket sealant around the top (oil side) of where the axle ...

Id say diff housing is bent . meaning the axles seals arent sealing fully letting oil slip past.

ECU most likely faulty ... will have some blown capacitors ...a very common problem.

Im thinking freight could be super expensive as they will be classed as dangerous goods as contain acid.
