Hello everyone ! Just wondering has anyone done a roof chop/wellside conversion on a y61 Patrol yet ? Have been looking into doing this over here in England.

Hello, have a 96 solid axle hilux and am after a new steering shaft to go from the joint under the steering column to the steering box. Toyota want big money so wondering can anyone in the know tell me if any other toyota model has the same shaft/similar shaft with the same splines ? Doesn't matter ...

Hello, just recently joined and have a few questions for those who are in the know Got myself a '96 solid axle Hilux with 1uzfe, r151f trans, 2"shackle lift and aussie lokkas front and rear.

Nice one Jerry, I see yours has the "spare hose on top of the intake as well" LOL. The hose on top of mine is the bleed for the hydraulic clutch release in side the bellhousing. We don't get those V8 badges over here.
Cheers Chris.

Cheers suzuki1k, how did you do that ? Buggered if I can do it, been messing around for an hour. Everytime I paste something it just comes up with the code thing ? Am lost
Cheers Chris.

Yea future mods to include turbo/supercharging with aftermarket ecu ( maybe in about five years of saving LOL ) OME front and rear springs with shocks to suit, winch bar and a nice paint job.
That will do for now.

Hi thanks for welcome ! Yea it is hard to find somewhere to go offroading over here without upsetting the authorities.

Anyway will be ...
