Outer Limits 4x4 Board

wheels fall off toyotas aswell... ive had it on a new hilux at work and a 79 series.... someone had overtensioned and stripped the threads both time and with alloy wheels 1 loose can be all it takes to vibrate and flex to loosen all the others till they snap or fall off.. its $50 to buy a torque ...

they were amazing. best thing i have done to any car ive owned to this day and i didnt even get them tuned specifically after arriving just ran with sonny valving. on road they were a tad firm on the small bumps but i was running HD dobinson coils so it could have been that. the rear i ran a ...

bru, my cruiser had 3 or 4 inch lift and i ran the patrol 3-5" kings (10 inch travel shocks) successfully for 2 years, had a reasonably hard life including 4 wheels off the ground frequently and never had an issue with bottoming etc. ran 10" regular Kings in the rear and had to extend the mounts up ...

mine spec has been B pillar and back for a few years now anyway... last i heard they dont allow A pillar style cages as it can impede emergency egress and hamper the efforts of ERT in cutting you out. BMA and PEABODY have been ANCAP 5 for over 12 months now, alot of people at my old site had issues ...

personally, for me the decision for 80s style bush rear is purely because the landcruisers have so much tighter a front end, they dont seem to sway (not roll, but i cant think of the word) as much and just feel more responsive in the front end. they also dont know and feel smoother over bumps... i ...

Hey mate its not worth stroking it u will use way more fuel but there will be power there. And supercharge u just spent around 14k and made around 150 horse if your lucky. I wish my ls1 was gettin 19/100 on highway. I brought a ss Ute nd was going drop the motor into my hilux. Yours should be Putin ...

cranky fitted a centrifugal supercharger if i remember correctly, not really made for that ball tearing torque that you get with a positive displacement blower, specially down low in the rev range. however, PD blowers tend to use more fuel as the engine is always boosting where a centi has a sort of ...

they use ultra thin shit quality staino, it cracks faster than a fat kid in an icecream shop. i think they sound crap on petrols, so doubt they would sound any better on a diesel... they are very tinny sounding.

does it have to be stndard supercharged/turbo? or can it be force induced N/A engine swap

remove or power (whichever way it works on your motor) the fuel cut solenoid through a relay and a switch. if it is for safety legalities i.e. cams, you may find it needs to be a mechanical cutoff and you will need to see the governing bodies rules on what needs to be cut off i.e. fuel, power, etc.

If its power your after petrol will be your answer, don't be fooled into thinking diesels are better on fuel when there pushed to produce power. And you'll make more power with the petrol. Mine makes 209.1rwkw and 690nm and still gets 12-12.5lt/100km. What are you basing your comments on? Marty got ...

they have a really good standard ecm.. capable of quite large cams maintaining good cold startup and idle, and running 2 bar of boost if the tuner is good enough and knows the software. call up hi torque in labrador for a good power tuner and walkinshaw for a really reliable safe tuner, they are the ...

there was a really quick one racing in coopers rally in a coiled 75 series, was pushing out 200ish HP on 33s blew a gearbox before engine and it has 400,000 on it

doesnt have a dyno but still tunes some of the fastest diesels in queensland and does a good job with my patrol with its pump etc. he does road tuning which for alot of people will turn out better for their daily driver than a power run on a dyno, my opinion only of course. Mike and steve have both ...

mike topfer at on and offroad mechanical in Brendale

How many ks do you rekon a td24 can do before a rebuild is needed? Mines done just under 300,000. factory 2000 model turbo Seems OK, serviced regularly. I want more HP as its on 35s and a bit slow. Ill be puting a 3" exaust on it soon as i'm told that helps a lot im about to put a big pump on mine ...

i find on my clubsport that the stainless makes it a higher note than mild steel exhausts, thats why so many LS motors sound shit in my opinion.... i recon the grade of stainless changes the noise too. (note to anyone with an LS motors commodore, stay away from xforce and choose a diffilipo or ...

i got a piece of tin (i was a roofer) cut it to shape and just sikaflexed it in..... no rivets..... stayed for 12 months and even held water inside it when it got wet inside the cab, had to drain it with a rag inside the car. my piece fit up inside the chop about 10mm so i had a nice straight edge ...

the hole is in the floor to swap from workmate to GXL so I'm sure it'll be there for the reverse. best bet would be to check out a workmate to ensure you get everything you need. when i went to put a bucket in my passenger seat i found that the holes are in weird places/need adaptors to lift ...

think of it as having a V8 in there.... your engine is just so tuff that it shakes slightly at idle.

if all else fails get a 16 or 20mm plate and drill and tap holes as a sandwich plate between head and manifold.

weight for a buggy wouldnt be too bad, only way to do it would be a hydrostat setup, direct driven variable displacement pump (ie no gearbox) to either individual wheel motors either series linked or fed through a good flow controll setup ,or 2 motors attatched where the tailshafts would be . would ...

As luck would have it. I've just done a cat 1.1 motor today with the same symptoms. 2 loose injectors were letting combustion gases past the injector seals and blackening the fuel being returned to tank. Might be worth checking out. Do the engines run fine?

Hi Mate, No experience with this engine but on some caterpillar diesels the diesel fuel injectors are actuated by oil pressure from the engine oil. Possibly if its the same or similar system then you've got an injector problem, possibly only one by the sounds of it. This would explain why you're ...

its the crownwheel bolts.

the 10 bolt (rd132) is the hilux/ cruiser hi pinion
the 12 bolt (rd142) is the cruiser rear and front low pinion diffs up to the 5 wheel stud diffs came along

A mate has a 76 v8 ute,apart from regular oil consumption, the injectors have been replaced under warranty due to poor running, crap economy, lots of smoke etc. Apparently this is also relatively common. same things can be said about most cars ever in existence.. we just have the internet now and ...

have a look on RDC and OFN for Medium Travel or Long Travel kit suppliers, the hilux is a vigo and if you get a chassis diagram you might be able to find a current toyota truck in the states that shares the same dimensions and do what you want with the info. as for fabricating arms, talk to an ...

and check about the details of the "extremeties"... in queensland it can only exit on one certain side at a certain angle bla bla bla (according to dot rulebook, i havent seen anyone who has been pinged because of it)

I have seen a driller eat it too. That doesnt surprise me at all, they are a breed of their own out our way. Every shift i look at them and picture the two of them holding banjos and im extremely amused for a brief time :lol: says the bonehead.... :finger: sorry, but i agree about the drillers. as ...

i know the torque for a landcruiser 79 series vdj (5x14mm fine thread) is 75lbft. youll be nervous when you do it for the first time as it feels like a poofter could fart tighter than your doing your wheel nuts.
