Thanks Steve.

Thanks guys,

Just finding it very difficult to turn the front when the locker is on. I think ill put some sort of hydro assist on

Hi All,

Has anyone got any pics or details on how to adapt hydro assist steering onto an FJ40 that already has power steering?

Hi All,

Do air lockers generally stay in until your car has rotated to release or should they release straight away?

Also my back locker is leaking air out of the diff breather, is this a common problem? just an O ring or something?

Only want stout gears due to them being 6.11:1

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone had any leads on some toyta stout diff gears?

Hi, just looking to put something together so i have an LPG guage on the dash. Looking to create my own from 9 LED's as I believe most tanks run a 90ohm sender from the tank.

Has anyone done this before? am I wrong about most tanks being 90ohm?

Are there any other ideas out there?

Thanks

Azz

I have heard of some bad experiences with Boggers on side angles

Sand absorbs alot of power, don't expect to be able to drive in 4H, stay in 4L It does absorb a lot of power but dont go to 4L unless you need to, My D40 Navara has got shit loads of lag and I still have only used 4L to recover someone, Just remember when lowering your tyre pressure the when ...

to be honest that was the first thing i tried, switching the switch is usually the first thing you do to try to get it to change. lol.

the lever now certainly does seem like the most reliable option

G'day This is just a notice to let everyone know that i had a problem with my D40 ST-X manual today. Today I had an issue with low range unable to disengage by the selector switch located on the dash. The 4LO indicator light on the dash flashed and after a while the 4WD light came on and stayed on ...

Just fit bigger tyres,
i think you will be suprised though, you dont have as many issues with hitting the leafs as you think.

My friend has a 93 Model 4X4 hilux (RN110 if this helps) front IFS, 22R motor. When he purchased the car he was told the diff was out of a landcruiser? he has informed me that the ratio seems to be around 4.75 so i would assume 4.88:1 would be it. at the moment the pinion is able to move up/down/in ...

what flex are you wanting to achieve, up or down. this makes a difference with what leafs to use and how many, if you wish to have more down travel remove the pins in the top of the clips that hold the leaf springs together, that way when you flex down effectively your longest leaf being the top ...

the problem i ran into with mounting a low mount winch upside down was that the brake only works in one direction, when you invert the winch you need it to spool in the opposite rotation, which means that the brake does not work.
only a problem if you are parked on a hill winchin in.

that reminds me that

yes


i did plan on getting underbody protection.

but the D22 front torsion bars are so SHIT thats the fist bad comment on the front torsions i've heard. whats so bad about them? with any decent 4x4 use your going to change the springs anyway. it must have been ok to win 4WD ute of the year 3 times i woudn't trust media awards one bit. it all ...

I know a guy Scott, he brings them in reco'd from Germany,
speak to Pete from OPW, same bloke who gets his MOG parts

I know Scott got a shipment in the other week was talking to him at Tuff Truck.

Ive have owned a D22 and now own a D40. If you are going to do any 4WDing the D40 id definately the way to go, it has alot better gearing. turbo lag is a slight issue but not when 4WDing. the rear springs in the D40 are a bit firm, a little jumpy when going around corners with bumps (without a load ...

thats very generous of you









but no

If you have transfer gears its a deal, all of the gear below is on my other 40.

You will only end up with what you have. lol.

Less the transfer gears offcoarse

it seems funny how when replying nobody asks the obvious questian what sort of gas system do you have? if you hold the revs up and flick it over does it run on gas? if it runs on gas at revs but not idle then its an idle mixture problem. leaking gas can be dangerous so take it to an expert and get ...

Hi im after options for transfer gears for a 40 split transfer case.
I know i can gat Marks adapters gears but there must be more options, from the states or anything.

If anyone has any ideas please let me know, i need the biggest reduction available as i have 42's.

Hi my FJ40 will no longer start on gas, it does however run on petrol fine. The solonoid is allowing the gas into the converter but i dont know how the converter works? I have read that gas does not go stale, the properties only seperate if left long enough, so i have shaken the tank so that it is ...

Just a quick question, would anyone know where i could buy mog404 axle pins and needle joints?

Why dont you make the rims?

Buy the outers and have the centres cut out like im doing for my 404's

What do they charge at Landcruiser Park?

the problem you will have will be the brake operation, unless when you spin it you come off the top of the drum instead of the bottom.
