Outer Limits 4x4 Board

SASS, I would be concerned about the load on your running gear using a 'lux with high torque for towing. Having said that, a turbo 4 would out-perform the six cylinder anyway. Have a look at the torque of a Prado diesel for example: 343 NM compared to a daggy 278 NM out of the 1HZ 4.2 six. (from ...

Hi,

does anyone know if the 13BT clutch will fit a standard B diesel?

I've just turboed my B and now the clutch slips (as they do! )

Does anyone recommend another alternative. What about RPM clutches, are they strong?

Hi

I have just fitted a turbo system to a 3litre toyota B engine (1980 model).

Can anyone one tell me the recommended timing position for the injector pump if I want to run 12 psi boost?

thanks

Looks like not too many responses eddie Im in the procress of converting my BJ40 to airbag suspension. I was going for coil, but decided it would be far more versatile for ride height and load adjustment to go air bag. I have put the hardpan rod in the rear end already which has improved the ride ...

Met you in the overlander forum a few times

OK, now for the most challenging question of all time:

How do I reduce the rattle of the driver and passenger door latch against the strikiing pin. Unlike other vehicles, there is no extra support to hold the door; just the latch. And with a bit of wear, and a bumby road, rattle, rattle...

Dumdunce, no, this came with drum brakes and the B (3 litre) motor. I think it was manufactured before the changeover in that year. Has the bullet proof 4 speed box. Don't hear buch about the B motor, but I think its basically a 3B with smaller bore?? Has sleeves etc which makes rebuilding quite ...

Wow, thanks for an informative reply.

I'm getting excited already thinking about modifications

Looking forward to spending more time on this forum...

Thanks for that dumndunce.

The rear is a bit whiney when warm, and I have the spare front diff from the changeover, so I think I'll look at replacing it shortly

Very good to know there are people out there like yourself who know these things inside out.

thanks again

Brian

Hi

Are the front and rear diff centres in a 40 series interchangeable?

Brian

Excellent Bubs

thanks for your reply

looks like I've found the forum I've been looking for.

i've been wasting my time on overlander forum for so long asking technical questions - with not much in the way of intelligent answers

thanks again

Hi all, Im new to this forum and would really appreciate some help with questions: Is the 60 series power steering a better solution in a 40 series than the original power steering? Is this a popular thing to do? What if any are the advantages? If anyone has fitted coils or airbags, does any part of ...
