Re: 200 series Landcruiser chip and exhaust

I did a 3 1/2 inch beau desert system on a 200 on Monday. Sounds tough as. We used the muffler bye pass pipe so Ne centre muffler. Still has the rear resenator. No Droan at 100. If your doing it yourself the dump pipes are a bit tight to get to. I highly recommend the Beau desert exhausts.

I've seen these camber kits. But they run a smaller pivot bearing. All they do is make a small adjustment to compensate for a slightly bent diff housing.

Also check if the glow light is on the dash. If there is no light you have a blowen ECU fuse. There is one under the dash & a few under the bonnet. I have heard nissan dealers who have fitted 2500 grands worth of pump to find out later that is a 50cent fuse
