Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Cheers guys

Hi,

Just rebuilt my front diff and i need to replace left and right ball joints on my tire rod. I ordered hilux ones and they are to small. It has high steer in it. Does anyone know what model toyota the bigger ball joints used on high steer setup are off?

Any help appreciated.

Cheers
Dave

Thanks for the info guys. Sounds like they are worth a go.

Hi,

Got a v6 commo motor in my 4 runner and i just stripped the teeth off my crown wheel and i am looking at the nitro diff gears as a replacement. I am running Auto, duals with 33's and a 4.56/1 ratio. Are the ones on locktup 4x4 stronger than stock?

Any info appreciated.

Thanks

Dave

Hi,

Got a V6 commo motor in my 1985 4 runner and i have stripped most of the teeth off the crown wheel.

Spoke to J Mack diff & Gear in Arndell Park and he suggested cutting my diff centre housing out and putting a 60 series landcruiser centre housing in. Sounds like a good idea but my ARB air ...

Steve,

How can i test your theory?

If the tacho interface is working what should i get on the output wire that would go to the black & silver tacho wire? Pulses of power or??

Is there a fuse the tacho runs off? Could my tacho be faulty behind dash?

Any help appreciated.

Cheers

Hi,

Got a Commo V6 in my S2 1990 YZN130 4 runner and i need to know which wire to put the tacho interface to. I have been through my wiring diagrams that many times and every wire i think it is is no go. I do not know what other wires to try.

I have been also told by marks 4x4 it is a black with ...

Gday,

Finally got my engineers cert for my 4 runner for the commodore motor with auto and high steer. I need to get a blue slip as well and i got failed on the blueslip for excessive steering wheel play. Tried to tighten using the adjust ing screw and it wont tighten up much. Admitted i am using ...

Gday,

Got a Tacho interface from v6 conversions at moree and i have hooked everything up as per instructions but it does not tell me which wire to put the output of the interface to on the 4 runner. I have looked over the wiring diagram for the 4 runner and i think it is a green wire but the one i ...

All i can say is do not use the marks adapter for the left side ( passenger side ) if you want to run crossover steering because you will need to booty fab it.

Right hand bracket ( drivers side ) I just chopped mine out and got the bracket from marks but in hindsight i would have just gone to ...

What can i use for my mankini rash? Alovera, sorbeline?

Anyway good luck in the comp. Was only a stir. Got my tickets so i am happy.

Cheers

Ain't nothing wrong with a commodore motor.

They will go well over 500k if you look after them like change oil and filter and do timing chains and head gaskets if they stuff up but they usually dont. But most engines need that shit done anyway.

You can't argue with the fact that it is the most ...

well if your mumma is a horse then yeah!!!

I bet you have aluminium side steps!!!

Website still down. Been down all day.

It would be good if the website worked so we can get tickets!!!!!

Or are they sold out already to all the dickheads that will stand around and talk about how good there ARB bull bars are and how good there ghay ass aluminium side steps look............. lol....... Jolly Good bull bar ole mate!!!!!

Woo Hoo!!! I fixed it.

After alot of investigation i traced it back to 1 plug on the instrument cluster. With it plugged in ignition would cut when car moved and unplugged it wouldn't. I had used a 12v ignition power supply in the engine bay that would work fine without instrument cluster plugged ...

Hi,

Got what i think is a weird one but it may be something simple as i have never seen or heard of it before.

Ater i got the speedo cable lengthened due to DUAL transfer cases, when i first put the cable back in the speedo was not working at all. When i was fiddling around with the speedo cable ...

the return line is completely blocked.

no air going through it at all with my compressor on full ball.
Try pushing wire through but cant unblock. i have it out of the car so i will try and get one from somewhere.

cheers for your info.

the regualtor on the VS is on the back of driver side rail permanently fixed.

so i think the answer to your q is yes i have tested it without going the full distance of the line. i might work my way back to tank ie there is a rubber join between steel line and tank which i might take off the tank ...

could there ba a problem with running the 2nd filter so close to fuel in line???

It is about a foot from rail???

changed regulator and still the same.

i think there must be a kink or blockage in the return line. NOTHING REALLY visable the rubber fuel lines are all fine no kinks and there does not appear to be any kinks in the steel line.

I MIGHT JUST BYpass the return line with some rubber hose to see if ...

When i had the return fuel line going back to tank the fuel line in would swell out about 5 mm when i had the return line going into bucket the line in did not swell at all. could i have a kink or serious blockage on steel return line?????

I do have a spare regulator which i will try. is it ...

ok.

i pulled return line off in the engine bay and it is flowing fine.
it filled a 4 litre container in about a minute. now looking at the workshop manual it says the standard vs pump flows at 1.25 litres pers 30 secs meaning that the output is way to much. it is only a VL Pump and this is what i ...

cheers mate. i will give that a go.

Hi,

Got a problem with fuel lines/pressure on my v6 commo motor.

The setup i have is:

All lines using EFI hose and Clamps.
From pickup on Fuel tank through an EFI filter into VL Fuel pump.
Then from pump onto hard fuel line that pops out in the engine bay.
From there into another filter and then ...

Hi,

Just wandering if anyone knows where i can find the wire to go to my battery light behind the dash???

I have a wiring diag but just wanted to know if anyone can identify it for me before i go searching through the wiring diags for it.

I want to try and hook the commodore V6 battery warning ...

thanks mate.

That is really helpful.

I will let you knoow how i go.

Cheers

Hi,

I have a V6 Ecotech in my 85 4 runner and i have a problem with the charge. After swapping the unit out and still having same prob i thought there must be something more to it. Maybe some wiring i had stuffed up or something. The car is completely running off the battery because altenator is ...

Just bought me a new thermo the other day and i am abit puzzled as to what to going on.

I used a marks adaptors wiring kit to wire it up with a body control module from v6 conversions at moree. The BCM has a serial data line, pos, negative and low speed fan control which i had no farking idea what ...
