whats gone wrong with it? Some good diesel guys are DSL (diesel service ltd) they may know of someone.

Gotta keep changing that oil bill :wink:

Just dont change it so often it removes all the build up around the rear mainseal causing it to leak!!!!! :roll:

Cheers, for that guys.... I just want it checked over as its coming upto 150k and while its in chc I thought well might aswell get everything done.... It will probably be with Steve a while....

Oh and from what the guys here have said, the oil changes haven't been as frequent as they should have, while it was in Japan

verdict from gary is broken shaft in the turbo, which is not repairable, so I have to pay for a new turbo

ahh well. Only the second toyota turbo hes seen with a broken shaft :shock:

yes bill a common fault,i have a 1kz and im running a steel shaft ballbearing off a latemodel rodeo,ive also recalibrated my fuel pump ,top mount intercooler ,3 inch pipe and few more secrets i wont give away :wink:

being a heavey deisel mechanic ive got the gear to make em fly

dynoed at the rears 119kw @2050rpm/ running 15 psi and as for td42 nissans they take a fancy to my tail lights :twisted:

as for the front diff no worries,ive put a solid axle under her ,yes not many surfs like it around :lol:

get the gas out mate :wink:

you dont need to do anything do you bill, yours is a solid axile

unless of course you want to convert to IFS then we can swap front ends if you want :lol:

Do the turbos not have steel shafts in them at the moment for the 1kz? Maybe I should machine one up now in anticpation of it going :roll:

Just another thing to add to the list of the breakages for the surf. I'm sure the the series 3 was more reliable :wink:

Got any IFS surf diffs float around toyking? Mine kinda shat itself in a big way :evil:

trying to get up a hill that the series 3 LR did in two wheel drive a couple of years back :shock:
