On my 98 80 series I went with 2.5" Suspension stuff lift with dropped bump stops on front, offset castor bushes and 315/ 75 x 16's on 0 offset rims. No rubbing although I haven't flogged it too hard in the bush yet. I haven't even put in adjustable panhards yet, not sure I'll bother. The diffs are ...

Probably not in your league of accuracy, but for small jobs I have used a jig saw or angle grinder, and wipe candle wax over the blade every few cms.

This is my experience- I stumbled across a standard 80 wagon a couple of years ago, 1998 model, 190 000km, 1HZ, wasn't really looking for one but the old fella who was selling it took my $8500 offer. Its the best thing I ever did. I probably would have been looking for a 105 Cruiser when I got ...

Now, if i wanted to increase the power of my 1HDFTE i would not be spending $1-$2k on a water to air intercooler, i would spend it on a better turbo and a chip. If i am seeking the absolute best performance and money is no object (throwing money away) I would still get a better turbo(ballbearing ...

I think there must be a difference between 1HZ Rs and Lux based Rs, we have run them behind V8s in our club, some even turboed 5.0s, and never busted them. You do need to ensure you don't overstress 5th in lo range though. I was given to understand there is a shaft coupler in there that perhaps has ...

Bit of a grave dig... there are still cores on ebay (USA) for $59 ea... how would one go about sourcing end caps and building the housing these days?

Would like this type of cooler on a 1hdft.

Hi Elmo, found some info here- http://www.marlincrawler.com/tech/transmission/transmission-gear-ratio-chart" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Additionally I looked up my old Max Ellery manual for Hilux/ 4 runner 1979- 1997 and it says... "Hilux vehicles up to 1983 used L40, L42 and L43 ...

Could a Hilux rear 4.3 lsd centre be used for parts to convert the Cruiser front to 4 pinion?

Glazed bores occur due to combustion temperatures not being high enough to burn all the fuel and oil in the combustion chamber. This generally occurs more with two stroke diesel's when left to idle for too long. Most detroit diesel have a high idle built into the governor to prevent this, by ...

I think all hilux 4WDs have the same chassis be it Single Cab, Dual Cab or Extra Cab. Hence why an extra-cab tray is shorter than a single-cab tray. 4Runner chassis is shorter, as is the wheelbase, so this will not work in my opinion. With the 89- 97 luxs the single and dual cabs had same wheelbase ...

Buy a written off 100 series & convert it to a 1hd-fte, All bolt in & others are reporting an total cost of 6g after the left over bits have been sold. Search on lcool in the 100 series section. PM if you want more details Hamo Went to salvage auctions in Brisbane this week- a 1992 HDJ 80 with ...

Whats the most offset angle you are allowed for your rims in Qld? if you mean wheel offset you are only allowed to increase the track of your vehicle (measure from the center of one tire to center of opposite tire) by 2" so if your using the same tyre/rims as factory, you can increase your offset ...

A mate of mine just got an import 1hdt for 7500 and got itin his car an on the road for 8500 can find out who he brought it thru if u like???? I noticed the 2 valve versions go for around that coin... there is an import guy selling 1hdt's for $6500, 1hdft's $10 000. Still, would like to know your ...

Spoke with him a few weeks ago... 3" lift and 33's (on 80 series) seem to be his limit at the moment.... Simon F may be more helpful?

As topic says, I'm in the market for one of Toyota's finest. It will be replacing a 200k 1hz in a 98 80 series, with H151 box. Best price so far is $9500 for an import engine. I know they are great motors and all, and are reasonably rare, but this seems a lot of coin for a 15 odd year old engine ...

what did you us to join the air box to the snorkel i try it to short spoke to a wrecker he said that you need longer tube it that sound right I found the surf airbox was a bit of stuffing around to fit to my ln106... it has an AXT turbo fitted and the crossover pipe sits further back than the 2LT ...

I'm thinking of parting out a GQ shorty with APA straight gas system. But I think it wouldn't work for dual fuel. Gas stuff seems to go pretty cheap on ebay too, though I haven't personally seen one for a GQ on there.

Diff housing from current Hilux is the same width as 80 series (4" or so wider than earlier IFS lux rear), same 8" centre as you have, pretty sure it bolts up.
I think there is even one in the for sale section.

However when I spoke to the engineer I was told that I could do it but would require an abridged brake test, unless I could fit standard hilux brakes which he agreed was a backward step but you can't bring logic into RTA rules. Would also mean that I would be stuck with the tyre size rules ...

My folks got a 9/2006 standard diesel 105, 85 000km at the auctions for $22k. That was 2.5 yrs ago though... when the govt was doing the 50% bonus depreciation tax scheme and every man and his dog was buying new stuff. They actually had a choice of 5, the top bid was $18k (reserve not met ...

I needed a vehicle for the same reason- family offroad, and just found a standard 98 diesel 80 series, 190 000km for $8500. I reckon stick with Cruiser or Patrol, they are the vehicles by which all the others are judged, but they are definetly hard to find at a good price.

A lot of guys would prefer either the v8 sound, or something with economy so that could make the v6 option least appealing (to me). I think a turbo diesel would have the best outright resale, but probably cost a lot of $ to put in. If you can manage a 1kd conversion it might bring you some future ...

They would be great on a skid steer. Are you selling them?

If you use 60 diff in the rear you could source the gearbox/ transfer from 1hz 100 series Cruiser, or the box/ tranfer from Bundera (g52 and r151) if you are worried about the angled rear shaft. You would need to get a fuel tank to fit behind the rear diff also.

The RTA spec sheet lists 80 series with 0mm offset for GXL, +30mm for the split rim base model. The "-25mm 'Cruiser offset" thing that so many ppl on here refer to is the old 45/ 60/ 75 series. Even then I think many of those models may have only been -13mm or so offset from the factory but with the ...

I was thinking about that thing just today. I remember the SM article where the owner said he wanted a vehicle that wouldn't depreciate. So he paid a guy to weld for 200 hrs + to build it and its value now is ?? Awesome ute all the same.

I think the 80 auto is same as 60 (a440), the diesel one is not electronic. Wholesale automatic do some shift kit/ valve body thing thats recommended and the torque converter needs mod so a few $ there. To set up an auto properly seems a lot of $$ to me, as only the t400, 4l80 or possibly Cruiser ...

Got an auto here that I've been trying to part with for a while, from 1fz no computer but everything else there... going cheap...
