Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I just dont like the wheels on the tail gate and would rather shut the rear gate to enclose the tray just so I can still put stuff in there. I would rather a tray too for work reasons also.

Hi I have an 2002 twin cab lux and was interested in swapping the style side for a tray mainly for transporting trail bikes. I was just wondering what the standard tray size for a twin cab was as if it was too short I may need to get somthing custom to get it long enough to get a bike on straight. I ...

G'day I have owned my TD 03 lux now for about 12mnths and its been a good truck except there is a vibrating noise which with revs gets slightly higher pitch and I have been told the fuel lines were causing this problem but im doubtfull. Im assuming nobody would know what im talking about without ...

yeah I didnt think there was much weight in it but i wouldnt mind making up a c channel grid for two bikes and with extra two inside tire down points. C channel wouldnt bolt in, sheer weight on it would be enough to hold it all in place.

G'day all I am wondering who here carries their bike on the dual cab lux and what they use or have made up to take weight of the tail gate. I have put my bike on a few times but offen worry about the tailgate being over stressed. I was going to make up a plate that allows the back wheel to sit on ...

So it would be like a standard cab with a dual cab tub on it???

I dunno if this has been done but have you considered a 1 or 2JZ supra engine big power, I dont reakon it would be harder then a commo V6 install

dont weld the front due to poor turning circle, just weld the rear works pretty good although its a little dodgy but I had one for in my last lux and worked well, cheaper then getting a air locker especially if you truck is only worth just more then the air locker it self!

I just cant wait till the new KM2 is out and we start to get feed back on that...If it were not for the new KM2 id go out and buy the old BF muddy no worries, alot of mates run them and havnt had dramas, all of which have tubes in them.

As mentioned with bfg's and mud in the beed is this a factor with both the a/t and m/t tyre?

Think I will go the BFG's , providing the are acceptable on the wet roads. Thanks for the input !

when i drop the 1KZ-TE into my truck, im getting a 3" exhaust with Resonator and thats it. Mandrel bent too! :D What will that do as in will the noise be alot louder and give you a KW gain?Just wondering as I have the same motorandwant to experiment with the exhaust. I assume you will be changing ...

No worries, its mainly in first to second gear but it just shits me. I'll get it cheaked in the next week or 2.

Nar havnt considered claws, nobody i know has them nor knows much about them, as for the bfg's and mtr's both have pros and cons off road fopr what I do but the on raod performance will be the decider for me, still havnt made my mind up yet!

ford econovan!

Excuse my ignorance but what is pre load

Well this thread has made tyre choosing harder, good to get a view opinions,I guess you cant get it all in 1 tyre, my mainapplication would be loose rocks and muddy trails and hills and on road. From what I have gathered BFG probably suite more I'm temptedto wait till the new MK2 comes in see how ...

Cooper STT's were another option but again I have heard alot of negative stuff about there sidewalls being very average.

Geeze alot people have different views on them, I'd be on the road most of the time so the MTR's may wear a little early for me.. Would just hope the BFG's wouldnt slip and slide on wet roads.

Wifey doesnt drive my 4B but I dont reakon they wouldf it a pulsar without a guard trim..

G'day im finally getting new rubber on my lux and are looking at these 2 brands mainly beacause i've heard good things about them both and more to the point I can get these at a reasonably good price through family. I will run them on the road (yeah I should have 2 sets of tyres but havent got much ...

I have an 03 TD lux and have noticed a clunking noise when I change gears from the rear end. Its not very loud but you can tell its there. My main question is are these diffs prone to getting worn out around the 100K mark? This noise may be a uni possibly or tailshaft but its so darn hard pin ...

Getting MTZ on my lux too, can 32's fit 2ich suspension lift do you know? I hear is runbs with is particular tyre?

I have a intercooler off a 03 TD prado that shares the same motor as my 03 TD lux ( 1ke-te maby) and I was wondering what parts in total I would need to get it rigged up trying to keep it as factory as possible as in what the prado's rolled out with, cant understand why the hilux didnt have them ...

Just bought an 03 dual cab 30L td today!Got it for $25,000 Very nice has steps , front bar sr5 rear tub colour coded (didnt really care but good anyway) and snorkel, done 94,000. Its got alloy wheels not bad but im thinking about asking the dealer for sunrasiers as a trade, I just like them better ...

Hey peko I have a cooler of a TD prado would that fit a TD lux? and what size exhaust do you run?

Im looking a 5LE tommorow for 16K and would justify that because I could get a turbo on it later. This particular 3.4 has been babied its hole life so its looking like a possible goer, the power output is impressive too.

Ive been looking for 01-03 turbo diesel hiluxs for about 2mnths now and thereare few for sale and when they are they sell quick so i am yet to bag one. I was looking around 23K and that is that slightly cheaper end so its hard to find one. Anyway a mates dadis selling his 3.4 V6 dual cab 02 with 75 ...

G'day all I am in the process of buying a 3.0L dieslel dual cab hilux which I am finding quite hard because they sell faster then anything (the good ones anyway) and have been seeing quite a few with reco engines at around 150 000 or so clicks. Is this just due to bad maintenence or was there ...

G'day all, im goign to sell my MQ soon and look for a GU 98-00 model and was wondering what is the best engine to go for as there are 3 (2 diesel's) and a petrol. I dont think I could affort the 4.2TD but I was just after advice in what I should be avoiding. I have around $16000 to spend. Any advice ...

Ey mate where was those shots taken in? notice the hills in the background and looks familier.

Wow this is good, I believe in freedom to do whatever you want to your 4b or in this case rig lol. I dont mind the bundy utes wouldnt do one my self but. Must say one thing those jeans sticks wrangler or whatever seem a little gay.
