plus there cheaper when it comes to getting horse power. Depends on your horsepower? Bolt some boost and a tune on a stock 1UZ and you'll get 400hp all day, reliable. Bolt the same boost on a stock chev and you'll want kevlar gaurds, so your rods don't kill people in the next lane :D Yeah I ...

you guys raise some really good points here you know that, im really after alot of horse power. I lost oil pressure in my motor and it really pissed me off its taken me the whole day to fix it, i was just over it and wanted to go for a 1uz because I have heard they are reliable engines and I belive ...

I have a 308 in my hilux but its becoming a pain in the backside real bad, ive been thinking of the lexus engine but I dont know if it will hook up or not. Are they the same bolt pattens?

It drives ok now, just abit of body roll, I think people tend to exsaturate on high lifted utes, my mates is lifted 12" and still drives ok.

Anyway ranco shocks eh? might go and check them out, what size do i need? ive looked all over mine and cant find any info or markings on them.

My 86 hilux is lifted 8 inches, has leaf springs and I do bugger all off roading, anyone know what shocks I need?

shitty gemini fan

Ive got a carby 5ltr and radiator to suit in my hilux and its not a "hot motor" just a cam and abit of head work. At the front the twin thermo's are off a V6 I think as they look around 10", but there not doing the job, its still overheating as soon as the temp outside is like over 20 degrees. Im ...

Reece Industrial sells it, look for a Reece Plumbing and they will tell you where there Industrial store is.

Ok, I just got back from his place and seems as though I got it really wrong....His shackles are 8" so thats 3" longer than standed, and belive me you couldnt bend them even if you tryed to, the things are that strong and thick, he also has a tube going through the center of them to stop them ...

the bloke with 8 inch shackles.....TOOOOOL.... why though? im not being a smart ass or anything, but is it because you dont like the look or because it may be dangerous? The reasons it is wrong. 1. 8 inch shackles in the front will give you really really really bad steering 2. You will chew out ...

thanks for the post dude, i will do that.

aha! thats what i was worried about, the drag link, those things cost to much to stuff up. As for the look.............i'll get flamed for this but I love it! im always looking at websites in the usa with these massive lift kits etc etc I just love it.

There is this guy I know around here and he has the tallest Hilux I have ever seen. it only has 35" tyres but it sits up over my waist when im standing (and im 6'3), anyway, he came to work with it and we got talking and he said he will make mine pretty high as well for $200 plus parts. He said all ...

Whats a drop hanger? and also do you mean flexing when you went off road or just everyday use?

im reading those three page links now, thanks for the info guys..

4WD stuff, what do you men by a high steer?
My utes a ln65 86 hilux

what about a 3" body lift insted? i already have a 2" one

ahh ok, im was hoping just 1" wonder if that will be ok...

So if I want to lift my hilux all I have to do is get longer shackles? is it as easy as just going to the steel shop and getting longer ones made up? all i need is this? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/3-Position-ADJUSTABLE-SHACKLE-LIFT-KIT-New-9-95_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ ...

cool, so i guess its a yes.

how much did it cost? im looking to do the same thing

man, wtf are you running in that????? I have a worked 5ltr and I thought it sounded tuff, but after hearing your one it just makes mine sound like a gemi.

I got myself the 35's but the only problem is that i bought them with only 3 sunnys on them with some huge ass offset. So, what i might do is use my wheels that are on my ute now, they are 8" wide but will they fit these 35"X12.5" tyres ok? or am I better off useing the wheels with the big offset ...

I have the same setup as you, 308 with a Dyna g/box, but I also have dyna diffs, seems to work well. I also have 4:11 in it and it revs pretty low on the highway.

Is $100 about right for a wheel bearing kit? i need the front ajusted and just thought it might be just a good idea to just replace them, its a LN65/ 86 hilux.
