Hay, i've got a lj71 chassis and part cab that could do with a new home. Has has been modded with a 2jz but previous owner toasted gearbox and never got it fixed. was a fantastic truck when going... So chassis is not quite complete, still has 2jz in it but no gearbox (auto) or transfer. It is also ...

How much you after for them?

So i have a LT1 in need of a rebuild sitting in my garage going to waste (and taking up space) and a friend with a rattly TD42 in his safari that he is probably going to pull to rebuild. Can some one point me in the right direction for an adapter or bell housing to fit one into the other? the safari ...

Anybody got a 3Y or 4Y Carb laying around that they can part with?

You might all want to check the following link for the LTNZ correction to "WoF news September 2007 Issue 11"

This doesn't clear the way for wholesale mod but does at least put some level of common sense in the whole issue

check the CSST (or similar), Make sure the code is set to 0 or off, unless the sending radio is set to the same code your radio will filter it out

If its the split box, you can pull off the pto cover plate (or pto if fitted) get a torch and look in. the shifter will most likely be sitting resting out the output shaft. a long screw driver or bar should reach it and you can just push it back up. This has fixed mine in the past and one other i ...

there is a set on trade me, well there was late last week anyway

1993 3.0 TD Prado SWB for sale Has new 100mm spring lift and shocks to match Check it out on Trademe m This vehicle has had the power take off gear installed in the transfer to allow a PTO unit and winch to be installed, I have the PTO unit and winch off a 60 series just never got around to making ...

Just to be a bit of a devils advocate here, but the WOF cade says GREATER THAN 5%, It does not mention SMALLER THAN. Therefore what is wrong with a smaller tyre, The basis of certification is basically that you can make anything worse tha OEM. If you run smaller tyres your braking would be better ...

I had my vehicle certed recently with 285/75-16 and requested that the tyre but put on. Was told that they could not put tyre on and only rim would be certed. i argued the issue with tyre size and the 5% thresehold for warrants and whilst the certifier agreed he said it was the issuing office in ...

I have a double cab flat deck 1986 (i think) with 3y. I was going to take it to get a warant and reg this week (its been off road on hold for a few years). Has replcement front rotors and calipers and wheel bearings (right side F & R) and driveshaft centre bearing.


make me an offer

Thanks for that

No more info required

I just swapped a 3y out of a van on LPG into the hilux and of course the timing ain't quite right now its back on petrol. The old motor dropped a big end and the 3y was the right price (FREE).

Does anybody have the timing specs for a 3Y?


Cheers

The vacuum solinoid that activates the intake butterfly is located at the rear of the engine on passengers side about half way down the block. on a 13bt this feeds a diaphram actuator located on the air pipe accross the engine from air cleaner to intake manifold. Have a play with the butter fly to ...

This wont be related to turbo boost pressure. There is a vacuum pump on the rear of the alternator, there is rubber hoses (fairly small dia from memory) that go to a small vacuum tank (about 100mm dia and 100m long) on the driver side guard. From there acuum lines go accross the fire wall to the ...

You probably have a vacuum leak. The clutch has a booster which operates off the vacuum and when you shut the enigine off the key opens a solinoid that operates a butterfly valve on the inlet cutting off the air. I would trace all you vacuum lines and look for any loose hoses or kinks. Do you also ...

I have just recently done this, Though i took the whole axle and box and grafted it all together. You will need to modify the steering shaft and add a bearing to support it at the fire wall. The back web of the shock needs some grinding to get the steering shaft past and the battery box will most ...

Heres one for all you supra conversion gurus. I have a douvle cab 4y hilux that has a sloppy wrist pinon number one cyclinder (i pulled the engine head last night). My options are 1 rebuild the 4y - $450 for pistons etc plus some machining 2 i have been offed a free hiace motor, i am not sure if its ...

Probably, name your price?

I am after a replacement crown wheel and pinion for a 94 Prado rear (with E-locker) 4.3 ratio. i believe they are the same gear set as the heavier hilux turbo/v6 diffs. does anybody know who in NZ or Oz can supply the gear sets at a resonable price, NOTE Toyota isn't one of them. or if anyone has a ...

I have a parts 70 in the garage, will look tonight to see if its still there, How many beer tokens? Say $140 Done. Send me a email on jacks@ihug.co.nz and i'll send you a pic to make sure we're talking about the same part, and to give me your adress etc. Cheers Tony If anyone else is after bits let ...

I have a parts 70 in the garage, will look tonight to see if its still there,

How many beer tokens?

It is possible, i have a mate who has done it with a 70# shaft, The 60# shaft just involves a little more shagging about, Its the little things like the chassis rails not having the captive nuts in the right place etc. but then thats what welders are for. Is still very do able. Also some 60# PTo ...

The 60# PTo shaft has the universals in different places and may for memory have one less that a 70#. I would expect to shag around a bit lengthening and shortening the shafts to make it fit. I have 60# set up to go into a KZJ71 and it isn't a straight bolt up. It would also pay to check you have ...
