Outer Limits 4x4 Board

my mate has a factory turbo auto 80 and he had auto lockers fitted front and rear about 12 months ago He loves it, it still drives great on road and is awsome offroad. they are good value for money if you dont wanna spend big $$$ on air lockers.

you will need to get a 3/4 hose tail braised into the sump, i tried taping into the alternator return and it caused the turbo seals to leak. That was with the ct20 toyota turbo kit. I also used a double banjo bolt and picked up for the the alt pickup, there is a spare pickup on the side of the block ...

It goes for about 3 seconds then cuts out. It normally makes a "clunk" when it locks in, but its not doing that. I guess i will have to take the transfer case out and have a look.

i can hear the electric motor turning when i push the button, but it wont lock in. i know the plug your talking about, Ive had trouble with it before. Do they use vacuum to engage 4x4???

anyone????

hi all, i have a 98 model 4.2 diesel 100 series with a part time 4wd kit fitted. Problem is it wont engage into 4wd. hubs are locking correctly but when i push the diff lock button in the dash it wont engage and the 4x4 light does not come on in the dash either. I can hear it trying to lock in when ...

thanks for the info thashlux, what about mounting the engine? will it bolt straight in and will my gearbox bolt up to it?

maybe the 1hdt from the 80 would be the better way to go, that should nearly bolt straight you would think. Any body done this?

my 98 100 series cruiser is fitted with a 1hz and dts turbo, Juts wondering how easy it is to fit the 1hdfte or even 1hdt, what other mods will need to be done computer/ wiring, gearbox ect. Anyone with any info would be a great help.

i brought the correct pins to suit ifs springs, then bashed the old pins out of the locating plate and welded the new pins into the plate. works great.

turbo and manifold off the 2.4 turbo diesel surf (2lt engine) bolt straight up to the 2.8 block and theres heaps of em around $400 to $500 from the wreckers.

i recently brought maxxis Trepadors and they are very noisy on the tare, even from brand new. seem good offroad though

what sort of fuel consumption are all you 4.0 v6 lux owners getting?? thinking about buying one i would only be towing a camper trailer with it. any figures would be great.

Its common to bend them in the front. i got a new springs fitted at arb and they bashed the perch flat then welded some flat bar from the spring perch to the diff housing. works well and looks easy enough to do.

the 3l is a 2.8litre the 5l is a 3.0litre, i wouldnt waste your time putting a 5l in, they make bugger all more power over the 3l. get a ct20 turbo setup, get the turbo hi flowed and intercool it so you can run a little more boost safely.

$1200 for an arb locker but that doesnt include the compressor does it??

had them front and rear in my old hilux, never had a problem with them. great off road, well worth there money.

Is it a new snorkel?? it should come with a paper template, just line it up on the guard and mark all your holes with a marker, if you have all the tools to do it, its worth doing it yourself. Its not hard just take your time when marking the holes.

they also sell just the turbo dump flange on that ENG TEK site if your worried the dump pipe wont fit it may be worth getting the flange and making your own or getting a exhaust shop to do it

The eng tek dump pipe does fit the 1kz in the hilux. makes a diffence in power as well.

will 32's fit under a stock 2002 ifs hilux any help would be great

if its a ct20 turbo and manifold from a 2.4d surf engine, it will bolt straight up to the 2.8, if you look at the head you can move your exhaust studs to suit the manifold as there is extra holes, i did this to my 2.8 you just need a surf manifold gasket.

no the 3lt manifold wont fit at all. Does the turbo have ct20 printed on it??

Yep should be on top. the turbo setup off the 3litre turbo engine (1kz) is under the manifold.

pull the little steel clip out that holds the line to the bracket. will give you plently of slack until you get new ones made.

its worth intercooling to help keep your temps down, and it will make your engine last longer, intercooling allows you to run higher boost pressure safely but you wont gain alot of preformance just by addding a intercooler.

my 02 hilux hasnt got a 5l i it, its a 1 kzte and thats how it came from the toyota dealer.

i have an 02 3.0 t (1kz) hilux stock standard 140 000 on the clock and get 550 to 600km out of 66l tank highway or around town.

yeah thats the one, i just used a piece of pipe about 2 inches long clamped it to the original breather fitting on the manifold, put the fitting that came with the gauge on the end of the boost gauge line and push the fitting into the open end of the piece of hose on the manifold and clap it in ...
