Can someone please tell me does the petrol version of the D40 Navara have the same diff ratios as the 2.5 diesel?

Its an 06 STX, I dont think its got any other air bags than the main ones and the one that rides in the passenger seat sometimes, but will have to check properly.

Appreciate the feedback and good ideas. I will look into those options. The ute actually rides quite hard compared to a Hilux I had previous. Its no where near as smooth on the shingle road I travel. I thought that it was down on its back springs but after looking at numerous other D40's it seems ...

The driver seat in my D40 Navara is giving me a crook back, how hard would it be to replace the front seats with a pair of recaros or similar and would they be likely to help with back support? Thanks

Got it sorted, turned out it was a uj on the front drive shaft. All good now.

Yes had it mechanics yesterday and he jacked up the front and was checking the wheel bearings,not sure if he looked at ball joints.

I dont know if it started straight after the diff rebuild as the previous owner had that done. I only just got the ute 2 days ago. I made the fatal mistake of not driving it on the open road before I brought it. Drove it around town and it all seemed good, the guy said it had a slight shake that was ...

Just got an 06 STX Navara. Goes well but has a bad vibration go thru it from about 80km/hr onwards. I have had the wheels balanced and they were out quite a lot but that hasnt made any difference. Had the driveshaft removed and universals checked by mechanic and they appeared fine. It recently (10 ...

Ok thanks for the advice everyone

Just relying on factory gauge, but have not doubt that its correct

Standard late model radiator, has a big elec fan that is on a t stat, but the cooling system is so efficient the fan hardly ever goes, only while creeping around off road

Its in a double cab Hilux, manual box. Runs good in summer about half on the gauge which is where I want it, its just on cool days open road running it runs a bit cold. I dont do excessive amounts of off roading.

Thanks for that. I was wanting to get a slightly hotter thermostat if possible. Mine is a 82 degree and my truck is running a bit on the cold side on cold days. Would there be other options to those two thermostats listed on the web site quoted?

Rito, will there be part # on it? I did ask at Repco today but didnt get any where, saying that I couldnt give them a lot of info on it.

Can someone please tell me where I could get a thermostat for my 1UZFE from? My local mechanic ordered a genuine Toyota stat but it didnt fit, any ideas appreciated.

Got this on Trademe if anyones after a good injector pump and other parts
