An Asia motors Rocksta is not a Jeep, it is as far from a Jeep a sponge is to a hospital patient, they may touch each other briefly but thats about as far as it goes.

LOL

A Rocsta touched my Jeep!! I feel DIRTY

I want to see Colin build his own Tuff Truck

Sorry but an Asia Rocsta is not and never will be a Jeep.

On the 70s can i run 4 40inch boggers on each axle safely or do i need to go bigger.
Stuff the 70's go the MF Gearbox and rear axle. Heaps stronger and will definitely hold up to all the punishment the Rocsta can put out.

And it's ...

So why did you post this under Jeep?

Lol and good luck

It's not standard. Check out http://www.theoffroadshow.com/theoffroadshow/HOME.html Episode 3 for more info (interview) and some vid of it running.

Don't touch the rear swaybar at all.
When offroad only, disconnect the Front swaybar (buy a kit from Wooders).

Check my rig out in the Vehicles for Sale section. I reckon it's just what you need. Not over the top, but phat like a Jeep should be.

Check your vacuum hoses, if these are cracked or perished you will 'loose' the turbo on the Surfs. Sometimes the Engine just looses power, as there is a leak in the system, and no boost is being made.

As for the cracked radiator.. excess pressure from a cracked head? Wouldn't be ...

Surf radiators are 3 core for the Diesel.

Depends on the load applied and the 'Dynamic Forces' applied.
Ie how much force = weight of vehicle + resistance from long deep mud hole (lots).
Dynamic forces are harder to explain.
Imagine a 2 tonne vehicle bogged with another tonne of resistance built up in the mud using a 8000kg snatch strap ...

What are you guys paying? I filled up at 1.289cpl on the weekend!!

My navara has 2 Hella's between the headlights on the bar, 2 super oscars on top of the bull bar, two IPF's in the side mirror frames and 4 nightvisions on the top. I drove past a cop with them all at full heat and he pulled me over and gave me a $135 fine and cut every wire he could find. That was ...

No it doesn't, it pushes the lower arm down, which gives the height and allows for more downward travel than stock.
IFS 'luxes have the torsion bar attached to the Upper control arm, not the lower like other makes.

That help?

Looks awesome.

Is there much aftermarket gear available for Navara's?

I've read a few but not bookmarked any. Unfortunately you'll have to do your own searching..

Sure have, it's called Blow By. You can install an oil catch can in line from the rocker cover to the air intake to help prevent excessive consumption/smoke etc etc.
Just make sure that the inlet and outlet pipes on the catch can aren't restrictive (ie 16mm or smaller) as the crank case pressure on ...

Gear stick modification:
The gear stick need to be cut on the vertical part. then a 50mm rod inserted and welded in place, as shown in this image.
to reomve the stick you can do as shown in the picture here, or you can insert two screw drivers into the top of the stick (where it goes into the ...

Daikin do off the shelf solid flywheel conversion kits. Catch is you still need to swap the ring gear off the old flywheel.

The 2L-T (Surf) and 3L 4Runners have a steel tube that runs along the base of the radiator and up the passenger side to the bolt that holds the lower radiator shroud on. From there it's a long rubber bend back to the motor which clears the power steering by 3-4 inches.

Does that help?

I can email you the instructions & diagrahms on how to change the fuel volume, i've done this a few times now when I've setup turbos for mine & mates utes!

From memory you need to turn it clock wise until the smoke clears up under load.

Russ,

I'd be interested in those instructions too ...

Nope, but you can buy an IFS one and SAS it
