Outer Limits 4x4 Board

150!!!! that can't be right!

Was that at Mobile Home Car Services??? In hook Street

i'm interested to see what is out there for a dual cab. Plenty of single cab designs around.

It also comes down to what you want to compromise with what you want to do. i'd like to shorten/narrow mine a bit but don't want to compromise practalcality to much. it's gets a little tricky some times!!!!

i don't understand why you have to take your front diff out to get sump off??
mine came straight out no worries.

i'd be a little worried about just "gooing" it up, but at that time of the day/weekend it's going to be hard to find someone to do it!

Who's doing the turbo up??

Talking to a few people and tapping into the alternator return won't really be succseful because it backs up and pressurises the seals. What im in the middle of doing it using a fittign like this for the bottom of the turbo: http://cgi.ebay.com/TOYOTA-CT9-CT12-CT20-CT26-Turbo-Oil-Feed-Flange-Kit_W0Q...

Man that sucks! It's the worst feeling when that happens!!!

Yea no worries let me know how you go cheers

looks like the turbo seals to me, that's what mine did. I need to get another Ct20 i have rebuilt i rang around and it was getting steep to get a shop to do it anywhere from $750 - $1100!! i did get on to a guy who does them cheap he said roughly $400 -$450 if you want pm me and i'll send you his de...

What i'd like to know is how you guys would get insuarance on say a cruiser with a 5" lift and 35's when buy the book it would be to high to pass a RWC making it an illegal mod. i've got a dull cab luxy 3" spring lift, extened shackles, 33's im under 25, stuffed if i can get any sort of in...

i have a dual cab ln106 and i pulled mine off all togther best thing i did stops on a dime and never had lock up, i adjust my rear brakes every 5000'k, obvioulsy if i jumped on them i'd get lock up but you'd get that with it on anyway

The spring perch on the front of the hilux's actually wear in a banana sorta upside down if you know what i mean. as you tighten the u-bolts it actually pulls the springs down the opposite way to the arc. you can buy spring perch plates to reserect it

there's a 12mm bolt that is threaded to the right hand side of the filter (when your looking at it on from the drivers side)

Pull the filter of and undo the bolt it's a long one.

EFS for the spring lift good stuff for the money

There not that tricky. If your a little unsure jsut grab a haynes/gregory repair manual it's all step by step with pics e.t.c
pulleys can be a bit of a pain sometimes specailly the crank gear.
But it'll defs save you some cash!

That's fair enough. If you where doing it buy the logbook or most repair manuals/guides the belt only needs doing on the first hundered. and there is a big difference in price between fitting just a belt and doing a kit and pump as well. I Have seen many water pumps go well over 200,000k's and rarel...

If it's only it's first belt (100,000k's) just do the belt. if it's up for it's second (200,000k's) do a T - Belt Kit comes with tensioner, idler pulley and seals, but as already said use genuine seals the aftermarket ones leak, and yea also replace the water pump. The second one always cost more! i...

I"m Pretty Sure you'll need One done. We engineer cars and 4wd's/Trucks at my workshop and we have to engineer all turbo conversions and that's in QLD and were a little more relaxed than NSW.

We look for things such as emissions beeing met, installation beeing done properly e.t.c
