Re: 80 series high mount winch bar

Hey mate, Me and a mate managed to get mine fitted up by spacing the winch 50mm back off the bar using solid steel bar 25mm thick each and also had to recess the winch into the grill. As I wasn't using the vehicle for competitions I wouldn't go to that much effort again to get the winch on, I would ...

Re: Do the 240Blitz fit on Arb deluxe winch bar for 80 serie

Yes they do, I just put a few washers under them to adjust correctly. They sit forward of the bar work, so I used to leave the top bolt a little loose so if they hit anything they would just swing back.

In a NA application the G52 or W56 will be ample, both boxes come with either geardrives or chaindrives depending on model. I would use a G52 just for the fact that there more common then the older W56 geardrives. Just to confirm a W56 could have came out with either a chain or gear drive fitted to ...

Hey mate, correct me if I am wrong your vehicle from factory has a W56 gearbox fitted to it. Confirmed this on this site: http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/q.html based on 99 model Australian Hilux with 3RZ. Then this site says you have a gear driven transfer case based on W56. http://www.marlincrawler ...

If your talking steering knuckles where the CV is, then its grease. I use this red INOX stuff works a treat.

Don't be getting Toyotas confused with old Rovers to often.

No, the wiring for the magnetic clutch is wired to the A/C cab switch which will only come on when the fan is on. But The major problem is that the clutch will also not come on until the Low Pressure and High Pressure switches are closed which are also inline on the same circuit. Bypassing these ...

Yep, that steering box will be fine for the high steer conversion. As 4RUNNER_01 said have a look at all the Hilux and 4Runner build threads in the members area to see what can be done. Also have a look at the Hilux bible on this site and also at Pirate4x4, which is a Yank site with lots of good ...

The 3RZ I have is out of a 05 Hilux(last of the gen 5s), it has a twin coil pack setup no dizzy. I haven't fitted it yet so I can't tell you how it goes driving. I choose the 3RZ as it is a simple install, with no need for adapter bell housings. This making the conversion cheaper. Its only a four ...

I agree with DAMKIA with the 24V soldnoids, I would talk to Berreta about his soldniod packs and that will save you the hassle.
