are you sure they are 60 series diffs in that midi coz i own a 60 and a 70 and the 60's have extra strenthning bracing from the head along the bottom of the housing and the 70s dont and we were working on it today adjusting the steering and did a rear pinion seal and they dont look like 60s to me ...

yea i brought the midi ex kiwimidis truck, from what iv been told they are out of a toyota dyna 5.29s with longfields, goes bloody well, runs the 36s iv put on it with ease , may do turned rims aswell.have 1" spaces coming shortly. I built that thing to take 36"s on 10" rims (no spacers) and they ...

its a very capable truck with all the good bit's ie simex 35"s, arb diff locks, warn 8274 winch etc

Guessing here and the guess is based on dead engines running petrol and two stroke racing bikes. That piston bears all the earmarks of a ring failure. the short bits bounced up and down eroding away at the lands until finally breaking through. As the ring turned around, bits broke off went up on ...

so your both saying i should wind more boost into it to avoide this happening again. sounds like fun

since you lot are so knowledgeable . what happened to this piston? was it a result or running lpg? I realise the marks on the top of the piston are from the bits of ring bashing into the head but what about the big hole down the side quote] Did you buy that truck from Clyde ? Were you feeding LPG ...

The nissan was definatly part of the problem. I did turn down the smoke quater of a turn. do you think it was over fueling??

do you have a clutch booster from this vehicle??

Jerry wrote:have you tried BNT???

yeah talked to my man there but not in depth. might be worth another try.

I posted this in the parts area but thought it might be better here. I am in need of a clutch booster for my landcruiser bj74 13bt. the booster lives on the cabin side of the firewall behind the dash. mine has broken the bakerlight bit. I have tried new from toyota but they are not avaliable also ...

I am in need of a 70 series clutch booster. My vehicle is a MWB Bj74 with the 13bt motor this seems to be the only version with the booster but i could be wrong. Its located inside the firewall above the clutch pedal. Its a 6" round black thing. I will pay up to $100 for one if its the exact unit ...

i am keen for the clutch booster from under the dash. name a price for it delivered to nelson!!

can you take the rotor and caliper off your diff without removing brake line? If so rotate so bleed nipple is at the top, with the rotor still fitted into the caliper then bleed and refit. A bit of a rangi idea but would get rid of your air bubble. Bleed nipples must be at the top to remove air as ...

[ Or is it possible to do some other fancy bleeding technique?? (pressure etc?) not sure if it would work but unbolt them and slide the caliper round till the nipple is up then bleed them and put them back. would be a bit of a hassel with the handbrake attached and might be a bit hard cracking the ...

If bleed nipple is not at the highest point you will have air in your calipers. Looking at your photos it looks like you could swap calipers from left side to right and that would put nipples at the top, not sure how this would affect your hand brake set up though. Or can you rotate your bracket ...

as already said plywood is your friend. i made these from 7mm ply. got ball bearing drawer runners from carters they move 700mm and hold 70kg each. i can have the drawers full to the brim and still move them with one finger (a bit of a hassell when parked up hill) carpert from the wharehouse and ...

i suspect this unit will have a diode protecting from reverse voltage. the diode is accross the positive and negative wires (efectivley). what this diode does is only let power thru one way so when the power is round the right way the the power does not go thru. when the power is reversed it gose ...

pm BIG GREEN 40 for some info. he and i did power steer and a spoa on his 40. we wreked out a 60 series and took the whole steering setup from the wheel, steering collum etc right through to the steering box. from memory we took off that stupid idler at the front and drilled a few new holes through ...

It did the same thing a few years ago.. I had the Clutch master cylinder rekitted, Bugger of a thing to get out.. Maybe it has gone again. funny you should say that: first time i put my foot on the clutch it went straight to the floor and did not come back up. had a look and the thread into the ...

HI guys my 13BT landcruiser lost its suck today. started it in the shed very flat battery and only just started then backed it out with a very heavy clutch then went to turn it off and it wouldn't stop. so i know its lost vacuum but why and what is the easiest way to narrow down the fault. or are ...

hi yes have tryed that as i said earlyer in the thread, works great one way but the other it doesnt ` sorry shopuld have looked a bit harder. I had a bit of experience with a superwinch. when it was powering out it was working against the brake in the middle of the drum. this did make it go quite ...

try this just cut it from another forum ........ connect the negative to the body of the winch Stamped next to the three posts on the motor will be “A ‘~ “F]” and “F2 ~‘. Run a small jumper wire (5 “-6” dead’ lead, 8 ga. will work just fine) from “A “to “F]” and put power from the battery (jumper cab ...

jerrys alt will fit but wiring slightly different ... do the brakes work ok when running if they do your vacuum pump on the back of alt is ok if not they are hard as to stop ya truck its buggered .....and last follow the vacuum hoses from diff 2 of em and see if still connected they eventually go ...

the quater on the suzuki was great for travel it almost got to a point where it was scary. we set it up wit a 3 link A frame on the top and trailing arms on the bottom. the springs were hilux rears cut in half and inverted. they were mounted to the chassie so they could pivot up and down freely and ...

hi im having similar problems in a friends hilux. its a 99 3.0td have checked the vacume solinoids under the bonnet found that only the out one has power on it all the time, button in or out. have removed the 4wd computer and im trying to find another on to compare/ test with. has any one else had ...
