Snakes 5link was actually Wizard's but i have been told again that Wizards has closed his doors, hence why snake probably does not sell them now.

Hilux front diffs can be built to take a lot of abuse, plenty of top runners at this years tuff truck running them. So why swap to patrol ? Locked up will sell you all the bits you need to build a sorted hilux diff and a three link kit.

budscustoms does a wide track kit for 350



$350 that's expensive when you can land them into the country from overseas for under $250 ....

I understand supporting local guys but with the Aussie dollar the way it is they need to become more price competitive ...
