Outer Limits 4x4 Board

no worries, as u will see from the pic, a leaky injector makes the number easier to see

email sent

cant upload a pic onto here, dont know why, u got an email addy, and i'll just send it to you.

sure thing, will get one up as soon as its light enough tommorra morning.

dont know what to say then, thats what i got, and thats where it is, its a bugger to find if ya dont know exactly, but it should be there.

you positive its an 'l' motor??

definately above the injector pump

anybody got a pic of the engine bay of a surf with a 2l motor, i got a surf air box to put in my hilux, but buggered if i can find where it mounts.

thanks tony, just the answer i needed

what visible differences are there between the 2.4 diesel hilux motor, and the 2.2 diesel hilux motor, i have what i thought was a 2.4(2l) hilux, but having looked at a friends 2.2 motor, the only dirrerence is the position of the huge air filter box, the plates on mine say 2l motor is there any oth...

i have been told to use the rear leaf springs off a hilux on the front, and extended shackles etc etc, anybody ever tried any other springs? also been told to put the rear springs off a 98/99 hilux in my 87 model for more lift, any comment??????

i got a reducer, from 24v, down through 18,16,14,12,9,5,etc, from dick smiths, so i guess u could get something similar to the item in the last post from there, although, a 150 watt inverter these days is only about $35-40

i have seen the link on here for the 2" body lift fot the hilux surf, it mentions the things like extending the gear shift, and lowering the radiator etc, but says nothing about the steering column, is it not an issue?

is it right that if i increase the wheel size from 29.5" to 33, it needs engineering? also if i do no bodylifting, how much spring lift is needed?

was just trolling through the posts, on a boring sunday evening, and i cant help myself....................was it a serious post????????queensland is pretty hard to miss if ya head north lmfao, just drive outa melbourne, and find a truck with a queensland phone number on it and follow it.

wouldnt even try, just saw it there, and thought thats handy lmfao

why would ya push start a 60, they still got the crank handle starter in em, or at least the last one i seen did

why is power suppy to a laptop an issue, i run a small 150 watt inverter from the cigarette lighter for my laptop in my truck ,and it runs fine day after day, only thing with inverters is they drain the battery if left on too long while the car is not running, but most have cut off switches before t...

i just paid 2200 for an '87 model with the 2.4diesel motor, all stock, with alloy tray, not bad nick and only 260k needs plenty of $$$'s spending on it to get it where i want it oh and it had rego too lol.

any mods?

yeah mate, i got a list as long as my arm, but i got the kit sitting there, so may as well put it in, i was talking to a bloke yesterday about buying an air box from a hilux surf, apparently smaller, leaving room for the battery on the passenger side, dunno if it will need any mods or if it'll slip ...

yeah mate, mostly camping stuff, lights fridge etc, will eventually get a winch too, but thats a fair way down the list

both

245/70/16's

i know its only a 2.4, but its still slower than my mates 2.2 diesel hilux with a 4 speed box, and another mates 2.5 diesel triton

i have this model, with a 5 speed box in it, i was wondering if they came out that way, or if its been put in by a previous owner........cos fark its slow lol.

have ya seen under the bonnet of these things, the filter is huge, there is no room without moving something, even for a small batterya friend of mine has the 2.5 diesel triton, you could get 4 batteries in there with no drama, but not the hilux.

Take a deep breathe, have a long hard look at urself, then give urself an uppercut for even considering the idea,we have an nh, with similar km's, and it just eats money, head gaskets alternator, timing, leaky sunroof, now the abs has died, i have had 3 pajero's,( 2 were na, and nb models, and were ...

dont wanna put it in the tray, it'll take up valuable firewood space, under the tray seems like just asking for trouble, is there any other way, a smaller filter, or something???????????

i am thinking of putting 33's or 35's on my 87 hilux, how much spring and body lift will it need,and most important, how expensive is the job.
