1996 RZN185 hilux Surf.

Post by BlakeNZ »

260,000km
Blue/purple
pretty straight all round.
Very well maintained.(every 5000km)
2.7 litre 3RZ petrol motor.
Radiator just removed and cleaned professionally.
Eaton True Trac LSD in rear.(new Dec 2013) Awesome diff- google it.
NO wood grain interior.
No sunroof(to leak)
No (weak) centre locking diff.(took a while to find one with out the unlocking centre diff)
Trans cooler.
ABS brakes
Airbags(front seats)
All fluids checked recently.
I replaced the engine belts and water pump when i got it (230,000km)
Has not been on the beach.
Has not been used to launch boats.
Truck was an electrical contractors (Auckland)before i got it, so was a road truck till i bought it.
It is so practical, that i found i drive it WAY more than i thought i would, so am replacing it with a diesel 4wd.
Really good underneath.
choice of AT tires or 32" mud terrains (10mm tread)
*Roof rack also if you want.
*New snorkel kit(not fitted) thrown into the deal if you want.
*Air con works.
*4.56 ratio diffs, so quite suited to bigger wheels or a V8 conversion.
*neglible clearcoat peel, but does have paint fade in spots.
Not listed on trade me yet.
Contact me here.
$5 grand. good value here IMHO.
YES you can sleep in the back:)
* additional info added via edit.
