Outer Limits 4x4 Board

im not sure id prob like to go petrol on gas.
i dont want it too rough i dont mind the odd dent or scrape,not a rust bucket shitter tho...
it would be used mainly for rocks and big tough trails i guess..the usual stuff that u get at appin or lithgow.
cos i want it big

g'day,
i am interested in getting an 80series.
I primarily want it for offroad use on the weekend so big lift,big tyres etc
but i want the majority of the work already done.
Looking at maybe spending just over 10k (ino it would be rough but it would just get rougher)
What kinds of mods should i be ...

who has coiled their lux?
how much more flex did u get?
what mods do you have do do?
what was the average cost?
cheers.

is it the ln65r that has the turbo?
what year model to the hilux's go to till they go ifs?

no its not lol

prob under 10 grand
ive got a mate hu's selling one with arb turbo kit,rancho's all round,104000kms springs,35 mtz's for 8 garnd..what you reckon??

g'day all,
bit new to the toyota chapter..
anyway im lookin at getting a LN65,turbo diesel with most of the work done so i dont have to stuff around building it (already had the zook xperience- over it)

What kind of things should i be looking for when i search for the lux?
eg:
lift -springs ...

Is there any thing i can do to achieve any more height.ive alredy done shackles,springs,body lift...
i dont want to do a virtual lift..

Is there anything i can do to move my diff forward anymore than just re-drilling the spring perches? (with driveshaft spacer)

Can i redrill the rear spring ...

this may sound like a stupid question but by fitting TRANSFER CASE gears,does it affect driving in 2wd??
and why is it that all the websites have diffent prices for 6.5 gears? lowrange want $475 but OVERKILL want near $1000??
could u reccomend a good place to buy?what price is exoected for 6.5's?

feck..
ok thanx guys.so ill have to pull the diff out pull out the centres and swap them and it should b ok??

its like a heat shield on ur exhaust manifold,worx the same way.jus keeps the majority of the heat in 1 area.
yes there mostly artermarket.

so he's sold me a rear diff??

Ok i recently i purchased a diff from 'scott1482 '
i was told all my numbers should match up and the diff would be fine.
I TOTALLY OVERHAULED the diff spending $375 not inclucing the diff.
Now on thursday nyt i pulled the centre out and immediatly realised the center was verry different,at 1st ...

it doesnt REALLY specify the things you need and what is involved in the swap

what is involved in changing the suzuki diffs over to lux ones?

ok kool just wasnt sure if it was safe or not..so the best and safest is just get a hi steer kit.?

can i use just a dropped pitman arm (to keep the steering under the leaves)
or do i have to/or better off doing a hi-steer set up to have spoa?

HEAD GASKET
OR
CRACKED HEAD.
Take it to an engine specialist,tell them whats it doin an the'll prob tell you straight up what the go is. eg: Penrith Engine Services

I REALY just wanna go 16b but the fu*kers down at the wreckers want 1850 for an engine!!! AND LAST WEEK IT WAS 1500 , a few weeks before:1250!! not long before that 1100!!!! wtf is goin on!! they told me "oh there getting harder to find" - what since last week??? if any one knows of 1 goin cheap ...

yer ill prob just leave the engine mostly standard.prob jus regrind the cam or summin not too extreme,just want a bit more get up and go than the old 1.3,the reason im stayin carby is that the cheapest g16b i can find is $1500 and ino if i can get a g16a cheap i will rebuild it for cheaper than that ...

this guy at the suzuki wreckers said the differance is the conrods,piston and there is a weight on the crank.yer..

ok can i use the 1.3 head on a baleno block?

can i use a baleno g16b block on a sierra 1.3 head-- IF i shave the head and put different vavles in it and what valves are available eg performance for the 1.3 head?

so i can use my 1.3 inlet, and use some 1.3 extractors.
so all i would need is a fuel pump for a 1.6?
can i use the sierra carby?
i am planning on buying a 1.6 motor to build:
what kind of performance pistons are out there for them? (i want high comp. pistons;eg flat top,dome??)

*Does the 1.3 seirra head fit on a 1.6 vitara for better performance or am i better off rebuilding a 1.6 vitara motor (eg. shaved head,pistons,cams etc..)
*Do 1300 extractors fit on a 8V 1.6 head?
*Do any external changes have to be made to the 1.6 (eg hoses,dizzy,anything) to fit in the sierra?
*Do ...

im gettin new black kings in a few weeks.

i rekon i might aswell just weld the rear,seeing as im gonna have it locked evretime i apply power.i tthink im just gonna weld it,spend the $500 on the front or sumwere else.

and what brand or site would you reccomend for a lockright locker?

well u see my rear diff is really noisy cos i sunk it,i did change the oil a week later but was still loud,if its that loud wouldnt my side couplings (spider gears) be fukd also?

so do i want couplers or dont i? i dont mind paying the extra $70 watever...
and what diff do they make
