Been there done that

Had the same thing happen to me on the GQ with a 1.6 t van on the back, in the wet. Ended up on the back of a towie with the van behind. Was the scariest trip home I've ever had. Did the rotor, bearings and never found the new tyre I'd just put on, went down into the scrub never to be seen again ...

How do I get go out of 4.2 Petty on gas/fuel

Hi, I have a 4.2 93 fuel injected petty on gas, and It's as gutless as all hell, Changed leads, plugs, filters, fuel pump, timing is right, replaced gas mixer. Any ideas as to what to do next, Would love to turbo it but can't part with the $ yet. Cheers Gazza

combo tank

Arb do a combo tank for the 100 series, It's a 120 l fuel and 55 l water and replaces the spare wheel so you'd have to get a rear wheel carrier I guess. They also make bladders to fit inside the rear quarters both sides. I've also read about people fabricating them into the sidesteps in stainlees ...

100 Series Front Leading Arms

Hey fellas, looking for some help, the front leading arm has broken the mount on the diff, causing it to leak somewhat. Is it poss to weld this back together or will it weaken the diff housing. Thanks Gazza.

Should've kept the wheels on the ground I spose. :armsup:

exhaust

I had A 04 3.0TD hilux with a 2.5 inch from the turbo all the way back, you get the whistle when under throttle, but found it to be a bit to loud on the longer trips. Does also help with the fuel econamy a touch as the exhaust gases are escaping quicker I spose. Gazza!
