could be the bearing in the alternator as these are quite common... A good way to tell is to get a helluva long screwdriver and whilst the car's running holt it on the suspects - water pump, alt etc and see if they sound like they are crunching or if they all sound the same. Belts also do wear ...

macneil - mate i basically want the strongest to start with so i have no issues...and the longer gearing of the 4.2 box would suit the v8 better... so the smallest diffs in the gq's are h233's? 233mm is still a huge diff, so i doubt ill have issues - and i hear there are less ratios available for ...

could be a bearing, belts would only slip for the first couple of minutes - does it get worse if u try and steer, this would only make a diff if it has power steering... is it a screech or a squeak or a grinding noise?

GQ Patrol variations??

Hi all, ive been a loyal toyota fan for many years, but unfortunately have come to realise my hilux does not cut the mustard off road. My plan is to place my t72 turbocharged 4.0L lexus v8 into a GQ patrol to get the best of both worlds - unbreakable suspension, diffs, gearbox and a great v8. Now ...
