I have had air lockers in previous cars and now have detroit lockers in my 80. I wouldn'y recommend them and I would buy air lockers next time and not autolockers.

I operate a canvas goods business and travel to Sydney almost monthly.
I'm happy to talk to you at any stage if you have any questions, Just send me PM and i'll give you a call.

Cheers, Joel

Mine is 2"post turbo on the dump pipe and it maxes out at 550 degrees in fifth gear climbing hills. I'd be worried if mine was getting hotter then that. Sounds like he's running to much fuel.

If you were to put the dual cab on the 4runner chassis you will have to extend the wheel base so the tyres won't hit the cab. If i was in your position i would buy an IFS dual cab and swap your lift and accessories over. In saying that, the photchop that you have done looks cool and if you have the ...

the cheap ones are Chinese quality and You'll shatter them first trip out. I went through 3 Chinese ones before i wised up and bought Japanese made Cv's. Im only running 33s on a 60 series with a stock 2h and when i shattered them it was on easy hills when i wasn't lifting wheel or close to ...

There were some tough FJ40s and FJ45s at Toperi challenge a couple of weeks ago. heres a sample of mine.

Try no lift and lockers, You'll go heaps further and it will drive heaps better.

Ok so I have purchase 4 of the ll62. So far I have fitted them to the split rims (it is so easy! me likey) will get them balanced next week and take them for a spin. They are almost an inch taller than the standard tyres, tho i think it is because of the very deep tread. I am happy with my xmas ...

Flex is so over rated. In my opinion, ride quality has to be paramount. If you want to ga places, lock it and gear it. John John out drove me time and time again in his geared, twin locked on 33's hilux.

As the title states, i'm wanting to find an aggressive tread pattern tyre that will suit a 16"x 5.5" rim. I'm currently run 315 75's on 16"rims on a turbo diesel 80 series and happy with the current gearing. I would like to find a tyre with a similar diameter and similar tread pattern, just ...

I'm 99% sure that all of them are.

A total waste of a VW beach buggy body

sorry to be a pest did you have an trouble with brakeges in the front with a locker i've been told there a weak front diff I did a few CV's and rear diff crown wheels because of the V6 but that's it. In my opinion, lockers reduce the chances of diff failure because you not loading and unload the ...

The tyres are 36" just the show the amount of travel. No matter how flex you have, it really doesn't ...

Hey all, has anyone put a 2.4D toyota 2L motor into a petrol 3Y 4runner?? I have a 3Y in my car at the moment and arent very happy with it, its nothing but slow and sluggish and loves the fuel... I have a rebuilt 2.4D in another car and was wondering how hard and expensive is it to change over ...

Does anyone know who owns this? http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g119/iamcrazie/CT-11.jpg I'm told its from childers (QLD) I want one, just dont have the time to build one before the cape trip next year. If anyone knows of a single or dual cab 80 for sale can you please give me the heads up ...

It doesn't bother me at all. My car is only raised 50mm and i still run 35s and i wouldn't want tyres any bigger on road.

I see young guys rolling around in huge rigs and i remember just how bad they are to drive. Glad i saw the light.

I love the look of the green one.

I don't think anyone ever has. Have a go and let us know how you get on.

Hi Guys, Im not an toyota driver however my mate has an 80 which he wants to bodylift. It alrealy has 2'' suspension lift. My question is does anyone know of a place in melbourne that will install it. He already has the blocks and bolts. Also roughly how much? Thank in advane Can i ask why he wants ...

don't take it personally. the 2.4 surf is about the worst 4WD toyota has ever sold. massively unreliable engine, underpowered, pathetic offroad performance and reliability from the front end. awful clearance issues under the front suspension crossmember and rear trailing arm hangers. you can spend ...

jaronimo wrote:so the 80 series is a direct bolt on replacement to the hilux/4runner, ie no modifications of the brake lines at all?

Yes

I have a lot of respect for dave.
That vehicle started off as a stock 4runner and evolved into that. As far as i know he built all of it himself.
I think it looked its best when it was bobbed with 36's.
