3ltr V6 petrol yota and box should do the trick.

Do you mean the 3.4L EFi V6 from the later model Lux's ? or is there a 3L as well ?

Not up on the yota stuff.

Whats the Tk Tester Charles ?

EDIT

Just googled it, yeah cool.

What will it tell me that the cooling pressure test and compression test wont mate ?

Cheers

Thanks very much for the info everyone. I am trying to salvage the 22r, by fixing or replacing as needed, as I simply don't have the cash to do a conversion on it at the moment. The less spent fixing it to get 6 to 12 month out of it, the more money that gets set aside for conversion time. Thanks ...

So The hilux I purchased has a stuffed engine 2.4L 22r. I was aware of it and paid accordingly. Young bloke I bought it off couldn't get it going at all. My sparky removed the alarm, fixed timimg ( was 180' out ) and put plug leads on right plugs. Started and idled a bit rough but ok. Decided it ...

Is it orange ???

Great tips gentleman, will make it so much easier.

Thanks for the info, just need an engine know.

Cheers Nick

Thanks very much mate.

Will have a go at just the engine.

Cheers Nick

I have just bought a hilux XC with the 2.4l 22r engine in it.

I need to replace it and haven't done a lux before.

Is it best to pull the engine separately or take engine and gear box in one ?

Will be doing it in my shed with an engine cram if it makes a differance.

Cheers Nick

Thats how they do it in off road racing.

Didn't the Christie Bro's build the GU cut down wagon onto the GQ chassis.

Nick

Simple Harb, dont do it.

I dont think i have seen a good looking exo on a patrol wagon / dual cab ever.

Why dont you just wheel the red and yellow one ? ( if you still have it )

Nick

Good luck find a set.

I have been looking for ages before I decided to sell and couldn't find any without centres.

Really try Moorebank in Sydney.

I got an eta for a customer from there yesterday and they were in stock.

If you have some one that can tune it properly.

Otherwise your in trouble.

To many people stuff these carbs up because the think they can tune one.

Nick

Why not just do it properly and get it engineered ?

I might be making the trek if the missus let me.

Would be an awesome event.

Nick

Was told that its looking good but I won't say any more.

joshy wrote:cant get full hydro engineered or i would. Mechanical steering wont have enough movement offroad so im hoping theres a way to run both.

From memory your building a D22 STR with GQ diffs ?

Why not just the whole GQ set up ? P/S box Drag link etc ?

Will make it easy when you bend stuff.

I have two batterys in mine. =p

The bigger turbo is not the problem its the 4" pipe running from the air box to the turbo thats normally the problem.

Nick

My next question would be who can re thread them once there stuffed ? Nick You lost me with that one. The idea is to remove them and put new ones in. Every one I have ever done has been a pain in arse and ended up snapping. Then you have to easy out or drill and re-thread. Both options are a pain ...

My next question would be who can re thread them once there stuffed ?

MUD CLUB wrote:...we found 20 to be a great compromise as they still bag well but stand up to a bit more punishment...

Yeah I'm with you on that.

Anything under 20psi in mine and I always had pinched side walls or mud & dirt in the bead.

Buy a Steinbauer (sp?).

A good sway bar able to be self fitted would be good.

I cant seem to find any one I can just buy and fit myself.
