Outer Limits 4x4 Board

i'd say he's ripping you off. a couple of years now but i had the tensioner fail so had to get a new belt and tensioner and was a little over $400 including parts and labourand had the car back in 2 hours

dave

not sure if it will work for you but i fitted a ln65 bullbar to my ln106 with only a little bit of grinding of the bar but it is a profile style bar not a winch bar
pics of the bar in the link

thanks
dave

thanks
dave

i have a ln106 and found a vibration the other day and found a stuffed rear uni however when reversing i can hear a clunking type noise first thought uni so renewed that but noise is still there its only in reverse all forward gears sound fine. have i done my diff or reverse gear? thanks dave ps ...

just wondering who uses these channels and why would they bring it in to the public radio. we use these channels all the time when travelling.

this must be one of toyotas common things i had to have mine done not long ago for the same reason and same side but i did find that the anchor pin on mine had rusted and swelled which stopped it from working so all the strain went onto the mount..

i'm looking at doing acebryans system and was also told that if needed i could use the 2nd battery to start the car by a switch. How would i set this up and what i needed. i already have the solenoid, battery and cable (just trying to find a surf airbox to do the 2nd battery in the engine bay ln106 ...

the question to rebuild a part or not can always be answered by the following - 1. do you have the money on hand money will be tight as new bub on the way 2. are you pedantic about having stuff running perfectly not too worried as long as its not too noisy 3. Are you about to go on a trip where a ...

i managed to get it off now the question is do i keep driving untill it dies or see about a rebuild now or get one second hand and hope its good. it still runs smoothly just getting in first is a bit hard at times.

thanks
dave

thanks guys i drained the oil and guess what found metal shavings and a few chunks about 3mm square so i guess i'm up for a rebuild.

thank
dave

hi i went to replace the oil in the gearbox and can't get the filler plug undone so was wondering if it is possible to refill thru the gear lever hole as i have the floor and console out to dry and was hoping this would make it easier.

thanks
dave

This may not even be related but anyway :D Similiar thing happened in my old Hilux (LN106) Turned out I broke the little ball joint thingy off the selector fork inside the bell housing. I was hearing little tings etc for a while then oneday I just had nothing clutch to the floor,couldnt select ...

just curious how sloppy should the lever be? my ln106 is very loose in first to the point where it moves to nearly the 5th position 1st is sometimes hard to get in so i was wondering if the dishes or cups that were mentioned earlier would fix the problem before it gets too bad.

thanks dave

goes back a bit

it looks longer then it is. when fitted it stops just in front of engine mounts still a bit long i guess but i got it for under $90 i couldn't make one for under that

i think i will get away without them as this is the bar and i am sure how it attaches will work similar and stop too much twisting.


how it attaches

thanks i was thinking they were useless a they were not supporting any weight. the bar i got was from an ln65 and it fits perfextly without these panels.

dave

here's the pics they are about 3 to 4mm thick and 1 on each side. the radiator does not touch it at all as there is about 6 to 8mm gap.

thanks dave

hi i have a ln106 hilux and just got a bullbar cheap and while fitting it i had to remove the 2 panels either side at the bottom of the radiator and was wondering if they are important as they don't seem to take any weight.

thanks in advance
dave

thanks mud empire just thought i'd check first before bidding

thanks dave

hi all thanks for all the help i have solved the problem and it was one of those simple things you never think off. I changed the battery in the multimetre and what do you know its reading 13.6v while the car is running. this seems a little low but hey its better then 16v. thanks again and if it ...

thanks for the replies guys. just a few questions before i go seaching in the morning if the earth straps are fine what else do i look for and how do i check them. i didn't think the starter could effect it this way.

thanks
