Hi everyone. Just wondering what a good price to offer for this cruiser.

There are 3 levels of tune just in the D40 range for the YD25 engine. Single cab 106kw, king & dual cab 126kw(was 128kw But lost 2kw in 2007 due to emission standards) & spain built ST-X 140kw. The transmission makes no difference to the level of tune its just the different models & where they are ...

Going by percentages through our dealership I reckon that ZD30 & TD42 engine rebuilds are about even under warranty. Considering that ZD30 patrols were about 85% of sales & the TD42 were less than 10%, it is obvious that 3LT patrols would look worse in the rebuild stakes. I have seen ZD30 patrols ...

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone could tell me the head tension for a 1998 Toyota 5L
Thanks
Terry

We have fitted 15" rims to heaps of GU(Y61) Patrols right upto the current series VI without any dramas. It is only the cheaper rims that caused ony trouble , but rims like ROH TrakII give no problems
Terry

Yes they will fit (except some of the cheaperrims that seem to rub on the caliper braket). The brakes on GU(Y61) have not changed in this series of vehicles except for the TB48

Yes it is an earthing problem, But just cleaning the threads tends to make them corrode more reguarly. There is also an ECU reprogramme that should be done that will stop the problem from reoccurring again.
Terry

There was a fault with the earlier TB48 that caused the engine to go into limp home mode that required both of the O2 sensors to be replaced & the ecu reprogrammed. It was a fairly common fault but I cant remember off the top of my head the code that was logged as it has been a while since I have ...

The main thing is that they use more fuel. It doesnt loose too much power, altho I have a chip & 2.75 exhaust on mine to help it along. Also mine is an auto so it doesnt have the same sort of lag that the manuals tend to have. The only reason that I changed the diff gears was to stop the auto ...

I have a couple of mates with these tyres & I have never found them to be that hard to balance.

It is part of your clutch hydraulics. It makes it easier to bleed whenn you replace your clutch master cylinder.
Terry

I just went down to my shed & measured my 37" Creepy's & they measured 36.25". My tyres are not new but still have plenty of tread left on them. They are mounted to 16x8 rims
Terry

The Transmission code for your vehicle should be FS5R50B

Rotate the button clockwise & the KM will go up but dont hold the button down while doing this

Is your GU a Ti?? In series 1 the Ti was the only model with factory remotes. There was an aftermarket kit fitted to the ST models that had a remote that looked very similar to the genuine remotes. They did look different when held side by side tho. I cant recall the make of this kit tho. It may ...

Do you need to trim the rear quarters to fit the Cheezy bars to a GU. They look pretty damn good. How much do they cost???

It should be the top right relay above the fuse panel under the dash

I would start checking for loose wheel bearings, wheel balance or maybe even loose camber bolts(may not have been tightened enough at wheel align)

Does your key reminder work?? If it has been disconnected it can cause problems trying to code remotes.
Terry

It needs to be 6 times in less than 10 sec

Hi mate. You have the correct procedure but you need to swap step 5 & 6 around
Terry

Sorry I should have been clearer. I already have 83% crawler gears fitted. I was talking more about on road driving. I would like to see the revs up near where they are in a standard vehicle so the auto will hold gear longer on hills. It does drive fairly well as it is but the auto hunts for gears i ...

Hi everyone. I am thinking about changing the diff ratio's in my wagon but am having a hard time deciding on what ratio. I currently have standard 4.3s fitted to my ZD30 auto with 35" tyres. It drives ok as it is but works harder on hills than I would like. Have any of you changed your diff ratios ...

The 2 that have the higher km on them both have a chip & 2&3/4 exhaust fitted to them. Only 1 of them has reduction gears fitted. The other is used more as a tourer(he just likes to look tough) & has double diff lockers fitted
Terry

I know a few people that run 37s on their 3lt autos with no issues. some have done well over 150000km no dramas. The autos in GU patrols are fairly robust.

I have 35s on my 3lt & it drives ok on the road, but mine is an auto. off road it still wasnt too bad but I ended up fitting 82% reduction gears to my transfer, But that was more to get some down hill control out of the auto
Terry

Hi I am building a 89 sierra for my son and it has 31 inch tyres on it and I would like to know if 5.1:1 diff ratios would be to low or would they be ok for road use.

Thankyou Darryl

9.1lt is a dry fill amount. meaning that that is the amount that you would put in a brand new engine that has never been filled with oil. Most engines will have between .5-1lt of oil still left inside them no matter how long you drain them for.
Terry

Do you have aftermarket driving lights & wiring fitted to your vehicle?? Does the problem only happen when your lights are on high beam & the driving lights are working? If so I would be checking the driving light wiring as this in the most common fault for this
