Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Ah crap. Just noticed the date this was posted.
Oh well might help someone in the future who knows how to search.

Sounds like the tranny is in "hydralic only" mode. I read that if the computer lost control this is how it would operate.
Check all the plugs to the transmission including the speed ...

The later models had the power/2nd switch next to the selector. No ect button on the dash

Off the top of my head I think the manual 80's released in Europe had 3.9's or 3.7's. Autos were the standard 4.11's.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

the cruiser was up graded to 3500 kgs towing capacity from 2500 kgs in 1996 there are 2 mods done by toyota to give it a greater towing capacity
the mods were actually done in 1995 but not upgraded till 1996 but you can get your cruiser upgraded if you do these factory mods with a engineers cert ...

Sorry for the thread dredge, but what ended up happening to this?
How many of these coolers are out there now?
Are they still a success story?
Was there ever one made for the Toyota 1HD motors?

Realy love that rear tailgate idea!!

Think I might have to steal that one.

Thanks.

No, a fulltime 80 has an open centre in the front not an lsd nor a autolocker. Bad bad idea. Its the same for my mates old 80 series with fulltime 4wd and a lockright lokka. Wasnt pretty. Even when front shaft was removed. The ONLY way you can run them without getting huge backlash is by running ...

oh yeah, forgot about that.
Thanks Simon

I always thought it was a bad idea to put an auto locker in a full time 4wd vehicle?

I've read that everywhere but I dont realy know why?

The way I see it working is when going in a straight line, nothing would be any different to normal. But when going round a corner the centre diff will be ...

As Simon said.

Just I think he forgot to mention that if it is working properly it makes no difference to pump timing ect once the coolant is at working temp and they are normaly removed when they bugger up as the cost for a new one is upward of $350 and not realy needed in warmer climates.

I have ...

I'm not sure the manual box can handle the torque of the twin turbo setup, hense the auto only option.

I think in South africa (or some where not Oz) you can get a 200ser with a manual but it only has the single turbo motor.

then you have the computer problem as above.

I have been told that this is no more than snake oil an that this is the stuff you want

I have seen some demos on you tube. Looks to be just as good but it has been designed and used for this purpose before.

Depends how custom you want it Mick.

Part time KIT would be easier.
But if you want something like a PTO drive, then I think you might need a part time BOX.
Then you need to sort out the transfer lever vs the diff lock push button etc.

I've got a black snake as well.
Bit hexy to buy but i've had it for about twice as long as any other stap lasted and its still going ok.
As menctioned PITA to roll up and store in the car but works well when needed.
Also worth noting that I try to use the largest shackle I can in the eye to save the ...

Any pics? sounds like what I was after. After 2 accidents in the hilux and having 2 bars fail miserably Im abit worried about putting a winch on the front of it. It has to be strong enough to hang a hilux off :D

Nah cant find any of it repaired, ony a couple of when it failed.

let me know if you ...

I made some horns out of 10mm plate that was welded to the front outside of the chassis to mount my TJM bar off the front of my old lux, after i nearly plucked the bullbar off it one time.

I cut the front body mounts off and plated the chassis about 400m back both sides. The plate D/S went above ...

4.875 is 39 teeth on ring gear and 8 on pinion I think.

I'm looking at getting one of these EMS2

Just dont know where its going to go yet.

Don't know if its too obvious but maybe easy overlooked - Is the pump turning the right way?
I mean is the pully turning in the same direction as it did on the commo motor?

I think the 1VD's (new v8 diesels) have a reference D4D as well.
I figure it means Direct injected, 4 valves per cylinder, Diesel

Sounds good to me too.

I've found 2 weling rods also woks well

X3 it will send all the drive to the wheel on the ground. The wheel in the air will also spin forwards at the same rate as the one on the ground.

i am not saying your wrong, as this is what i want to happen, but i have read other thing(there i way to much info that may or may not be correct about ...

My 81 model hilux, RN46 i think, had solid spacers when i did the diffs in it. Presume they were there from the factory.

I have been told by a diesel shop that you can put a $3500 kit through the pump and it completely changes the engine characterisitics. Sorry i didnt realy pay much attention at the time as i didnt want to sped that dosh.
The shop was in bundaberg, called 4dt i think.

LCOOL has a pretty good section in the tech for mods to feul pump.

[quote="stevejl"]I Have been asked alot of qestions about my winch it is a milemarker made into a Rtype h12 copied the idea from this web site. 4x4winches.com/index.php?page=type_r.htm[/quote]

Steve How much dis this entire set up cost? and is it engine driven pump or pto?

I think one person said a knife in the first page.
DONT forget a knife.
Leatherman always lives in my car, problem is if you use it for some thing but the bloody thing back. That way you dont end up stranded without it (hangs my head in shame)

If the cv's have been replaced they may be constant 4wd ones wich could be longer than the part timers, and the locking ring in the hub may not move completely off of the spline.

If the later model FWH are made for this extra length ignore my post.
(can anyone tell me if they are?)

[quote="Dane"]I have found Haynes to be shit also, especially the wiring diagrams.

I buy OEM or Gregory's.[/quote]
