i am looking at an auto lokka as mine is regularly driven on the road i blew 2 welded rears in my swb zook, both in sticky car parks on tight turns with 12-15psi. i never had a problem in the bush though. also when you're on your way out to play in the mud there is a good chance you will be drivin ...

rotary turbo maybe? if i or should i say when i get pulled off the road in my (not quite legal) escort, that ill stick the rotar in a sierra, as it is a legal conversion apparently. maybe take some boost out of it while im at it lol

ok guys thanks for all the great advice. ill start looking for a set of open 4.56 gears as i still have about 45% of my 31s left, also if i ever get defected on the 33s i think the 4.56s will suit the 31s better. if i am after a better crawl ratio at a later stage ill look at doin transfer gears as ...

Mines custom made by the guy at SJ Performance, cant remember cost, but it wasnt cheap. Best to get a quote =)

I've since lopped off the lower mount holes too, so clearance isnt an issue (even ...

im after peoples opinions on which is the best ratio to run. i have a 92 desiel lux and i am planning to turbo (surf for now) and run 33s it is a daily driver so i am hoping to gear it close to standard.

head gasget maybe? could be pressurizing the cooling system.

in my old zook i ran the old man emu springs and shocks and loved it and got 550mm of flex on the forklift at work. i then bent a fronnt spring on a huge rock and decided to fit tjm front springs as they were 50mm not 40mm lift like the ome and lost 100mm of flex. very stiff i might add. if i had to ...

manual for me.i like to drive my vehicles as well as steer them and i tend to get bored driving autos on the road,although i have never wheeled an auto offroad, i have driven way too many underpowered road automatics over the years , but could consider an auto truck if the grunt was there.(definitly ...

picked up both front 6inch extended for the lux for 70 bucks bout 6 months ago from beenleigh bearings. called them for the single and qoute was 65 bucks for single...? end up going to slacks creek brake and clutch and for 40 bucks got 8 inch extended rear line and they did it for me while i waited ...

ok quick update i have cut out most of rust with the exception of about 15mmx 200mm on the inside of the rail,(only had one cut off wheel)and have looked with a torch further down the chassis rail where i have cut, and it looks mickey mouse, so fingers crossed the other side is ok. my next step will ...

Ok got a 92 single cab hilux and have found rust in the chassis just in front of the fixed pin on the rear springs on drivers side. my question is can it be repaired safely enough or legally? i havent started cutting yet but from what i can feel rust is approx 150mm long across the bottom and about ...

sleeve is 19mm in the pedders bushes ill have to try a different make...

all sorted guys stopped in at pedders and they pressed them out for nothing for me they were pretty quiet. picked up the correct bushes but the are not real tight around the fixed pin though.. will just have to pump them full of grease to take up the extra play

cheers mick

got everything ready to fit my ifs rears except the fixed pin bushes. just wondering what other members have used. will it be ok to buy the non genuine bush to suit the ifs leaves and just leave the tube out?? if not any suggestions......

cheers mick.

long time listener fist time caller here. im in the process of rebuilding my 92 single cab and cant decide wether to ditch the original tail shaft for a one piece as my centre bearing is flogged. everyone i know personally with lifted hilux's tend to get the same problem. at the moment it has a 2 ...
