Outer Limits 4x4 Board

So I found a 1984 Toyota Camry Deluxe that has the 1.8L turbo diesel in it and was wondering if that is the same motor offered in the lux. I have an 83 lux with the 22r and was hoping that i could swap this in without much fuss. Its hard to get good diesel tech over here and was hoping that you guys ...

yeah was a school bus then he choped the rear and moved it foward.

do the cops over there give a shit that your driving a car thats totally rooted? here in Australia they would eat you for breakfast for driving that on the road Well they do but we just got lucky on the way home. But for the most part it depends from state to state. My othere buddy hasnt had doors ...

Since i had nothing else to do on the ride home i took pics. Here was my view on the way home.

Well we put the drivers door back on since my side got the worst of it ran some tape on the windsheild so the glass wouldnt fall apart then drove it on the highway home. Its his only way to and from work so he has to have it.

Yeah and run around naked too

After using the high lift on the cab and some duct tape for the windsheild we drove it home like this. http://www.mavoffroad.com/pics/yourmyhero.JPG This guy has an awesome tow rig. http://www.eagleoffroad.com/uploads/towbus.jpg This guy had some 53" michelins last time now he has the new 49" iroks ...

Thats a later model truck

urrg. I saw the hooks on the bed and dated it. Thats one of the easy ways to date the body styles in the states is because the hooks ended in 83. Thanks

got the loom to keep the wires off the header. Nothing great but i like it.

When i get some money ill give it my best. But happened to be looking through an older 4wd monthly and ran across a couple of pics of one. Its amazing it is the same exact color as yours. I had to keep looking to make sure i wasnt looking at your truck. Ill scan and post. http://www.eagleoffroad.com ...

Do you have a link to some one that would sell it? I dont mind shipping. Or i have a friend in new zealand maybe he could help me out.

Check out my 79 Lux in the thread below. I fitted a genuine GU Patrol snorkel to it. It fits so well that when Love_Mud came over and looked at it he couldn't believe it wasn't meant for a Toyota. I have since changed the "Nissan" emblem for a "Toyota" one and you wouldn't know it a Nissan product ...

Is there any sort of aftermarket snorkle for the first body style of trucks? I want the clean looks of a professionally made one.

Link?

Rod666: Yeah i know they werent around but i will do that modification on my housing to run it. Spazbot: Yeah i remember reading that about the early axles. This is why i was asking the question. Its hard to see a 4.88 factory setup none the less something lower. Inchworm has them for about $1300us ...

What I was looking for was toyota setup 5.29s in an elocker and was wondering if they came that way in any thing. I wanted that part number so i could just go order one from the dealership.

Didnt know if you had seen these yet. I wish i didnt already have longs. These look so cool. Long did it again. Quote We have went as far as we can go with the birfield material we are currently using today. It's become obvious that we need more strength in a Toyota front axle now that they are ...

I was wondering if 5.29s came at all with an e-locker. I know that there were some odd ball ratios for the hilux so i was wondering if maybe someone new if this setup exists from toyota. I would really love to have a part number to get one with.

did the hi pinion locker come in 4.88s or just 4.10? I seem to only be able to get the 4.10s to pull up at the auto wreckers.

Can I just run the hi pin from the front of the 80? Or is there a difference on the 80s?

Yesterday in a local scrapyard I found an L 2.2 in an 81 2wd pickup. (diesel are hard to find here in the states). Well he said that he would sell me everything with the motor (but not transmission) for $125 (US). I havent bought it yet because i dont know what to look for. What are the goods and ...

Are they any good? Tell me about them. Ive never seen one except in 4wd monthly.

thanks for the info. I was hoping they were more avaliable over there. Still want one so i guess i will keep lookin. thanks

Ok I was wanting all the pto winch info i could get. I would like to know if i could put one on my 83 pickup with maybe just a transfer modifiation. Could i use the fj40 winch or is there another? Just need any info you got. Any one that has a pto could you post pics or tell me about it thanks.

anybody have any beta on these?

coming home from work is a good example of what im talking about.
I stopped at the light and next to me was a ford excursion ( http://www.dieseldynamics.com/excursion.htm ) talk about ecessive it had the 10 cylinder diesel in it and they are big(!). Of course one guy was driving by himself. urg
