Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Which 7X series had the pod on the dash with i think it was a compass and a pic of the car with lines to show degrees of lean with point of roll over??

I know it is a vague question, but not sure how else to explain it.

There is 2 single cabs on this website..... http://www.toyhatsu.com.au/WebPage/WebPage.asp?Ref=2937" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; The first is a tad hard to see, but looks a tad crap IMHO The second looks sweet.... The 100 series looks the goods, but the amount of $$ spent it bloody ...

I recently purchased a 1999 75 Series Landcruiser Ute 1HZ Diesel Motor, Slow up hills, Good on fuel 13L/100km. Paid 21k for it 193,000km on the clock up here in Qld there pretty hard to find especially ones that havn't been owned by the mines or flogged the guts out of it. My dads mate had a petrol ...

Bip Toyota in Caroline Springs

Prepare to touch your toes with both these guys....

I did. :finger: For those playing at home. I am by no means the guru in regards to these engines but i believe i have been able to get some decent power from the 1HZ. I get alot of people asking me what i have done to my 1HZ to make it go the way it does, ive always been reluctant to share the nitty ...

I have found no difference in the new V old.
Same wear rate, bag out identical, same road noise.

Not sure what the big thing is about the new ones, but i am yet to find it.

Zoltan, How many K's had your 1HZ done when you bolted the turbo on

4T wow. I would have thought it difficult to fit that much into the back of a Troopy, they are about 2.3T off the floor. My folks set up 7x cruiser + camper trailer fully loaded with 2 fridges, solar w/ 4 battery's, 2 spare tires, tinny on trailer. 215ltrs fuel. 100ltrs water Plus basically all ...

Which springs did you take out?
Were they thick or thin?

Have a look at Zoltan's build up of his 75. MInus the SPOA his has good height and flex

I am replacing my unis (75 series) and i am having issues. I have taken the clip off the inside of the uni and sprayed with WD-40 to loosen it all up, but nothing......not even the slightest bit of movement when i give it a wack with a BFH and i have given it an almighty wack. Am i missing something ...

I would have said hitting a roo on a freeway would be a big crash......

Take the axles out (leave wheels on if you want) Jack car as high as the stands will allow, as you will need a bit of room to move Climb under take the tail shaft out (put a mark on the tail shaft flange where one bolt is so you can put it back in the same holes) Undo the 10-12 bolts that hold the ...

Sounds like the sender to me.

When your driving does the gauge not move, then suddenly drop half a needle?

I have just installed a new auto locker in the front of a 75 series.

With hubs unlocked and in neutral, should i be able to spin the front tail shaft?

Isn't the Tundra our Hilux??

If it involves mud or water,get your hands on a quality turbo diesel, that's what I'd be going for.

Tray, just build a tube tray that is still semi functional.

Coils/coil over the farker, if you plan on jumping it.

Take lots of pics.....

Yes, but you will need to take the LSD out to put the locker in. Contact this guy, he is bringing Richmond lockers in from the states at great prices. I just got a front one delivered for for heaps less than anywhere else. http://myworld.ebay.com.au/northlakes4wdrepairs/" onclick="window.open(this ...

Any control box with solenoids will work fine.
You can mount the box under the bonnet if your going to be controling from incab.

Do a search, this has been covered SO many times......

Tigerz solenoid will work, and you only need one.

A lot better than the multiple warn ones.

The days of Warn being the ducks nutz are long gone....

Tigerz are a very good unit and have great reviews, not to mention designed and tested for Aust. conditions

Make sure you measure the tigerz though, as there is a slight length issue on some models

Not legal and yes on eng. cert.

I have exploded my front diff and want to know what other series diff will fit IE: 60 or 80 series

it is currently a 4.1

While i know not not much about prados, i thought it would be easier to just do the bearings.

I have changed lots of bearing and never used a press yet.....just a punch, hammer and a bench vice.

Have you asked on a Prado specific site like Prado point??

PM Bubs on here. he will be able to hook you up.

Most likely be using 80 diffs.

Or start by going through the members threads and look at the ones that have already been done.

Yes still on.

keep an eye on mud rhino for any updates

I installed 6x9's in my 75 last week and had no issues at all.

Sand is ok as long as you use breathing apparatus ...... but yes , silicosis would really suck Here we go agian (outers saftey crew) I deliver sand 6 days a week. I dont have a breathing appartus nobody at the quarry has a breathing apparatus. A plain old dust mask and saftey glasses should do for ...

Get a cheap 2 man tent($20) to do it in. Makes life and clean up a little easier.
