i have one filter before the lift pump one on tehe line from lift pump and one high pressure in the engine bay all seemed tho be ok,

Main reason for the 2 filters before the high pressure pump is to filter out any alloy that could still be floating around in the tank.

Not a bad price, how close did you get to this ? if you beat it ill bag my mate out forever.

Thanks Mr dj, i had a closer look at the abt gaurds and bonnet but i think they look terrible, it already has the factory flares and the ar the same as the FRP ones so no gain there.

The tyres are 60mm outside the factory flares, im running neg13mm 17x8's and 37x12.5 tyres.

how would i go if i was ...

Who here has large fibreglass flares on there hilux 4runner 89-96 model ?

Where did you get them and roughly what did you pay ?

Im in need of some now i have gq patrol rear and 80 series front, the 37 treppies sick outside the factory flare quiet some way.

Cheers Gavin.

I have just put the 80series front end in mine and to solve the rear off set problem i have just gone with gq patrol rear which is centred and running 4.88 diff gears in both diffs, powered with a holden 5l and running 37 sticky treps so im hoping for a bullet proof driveline apart fronm the weak 80 ...

I also run std patrol offset on road rubber and 12.5" wide rubber only just sits within the flare, and your rear diff is 5" wider at the mounting face
You have weaved some sweet magic to get it to work, done well !!

Keen to see how you mounted the triangulated 4 link without moving the fuel tank ...

You must have some huuuuuuuuuuge flares

Nope i just run GU off set factory rims and 265/75 tyres with factory surf flares and its engineered like that, im saving up for some 37 trepidors for off road playing

Im running GQ rear in my 4runner with a 4 link and triangulated uppers,In my opinion the nissan diff will be more the up to the task and no mucking around flipping diffs or moving your fuel tank.. im running the 80 series front in mine and track widths work out a treat

after skim module or transponder & key to suit a 2000 mod tj jeep, so i can unlock the immobiliser in the computer.

Gq patrol rear 1595mm or 61.3in wms-wms

got a hold of diff and measured it up, 1595mm WMS-WMS so thats 61.3in in the old scale.

Hey all, this may have been asked a thousand times but my search dont seem to be working.

Anyone know the wms-wms measurements of a Gq rear ?

looking at fitting one to the rear of my 4runner to match the 80 series front .

Valve clearances been done since the new head went on ?????
90% sure thats your problem.

Well after fitting the 5litre holden motor into my 4runner i am wanting to run the tacho in the 4runner dash.

Has anyone been able to get this working with the 5litre ?

or is my best option to buy an aftermarket tacho and put it into my dash and cover up existing one.

Any help would be handy ...

Why dont you just put a 80 front diff in the rear ?

Already high pinion, and if it fits in the front of a hilux it will fit in the rear.

All rod ends are new.

Im running nissan Xflex bushes, Im awaiting my adjustabe top arm from snake so ill be able to adjust castor then, once thats done ill see how it drives then.

Thanks for the constructive advise.
