Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi dave,

the 2.5 TD is the tow vehicle of choice for the tow vehicle at Gold Coast Nautiques. There is a few threads on www.wake.com.au regarding the towing capacity and performance of the navara's and pathfinders. One bloke has been having problems with engine vibrations in his petrol V6 at idle ...

what about lead bricks / weights? you could attach them under the tray when 4x4ing (they are compact, and should / could also lower the centre of gravity ) and leave them in the shed for daily driving.

I got my 1990 DC 2.8D hilux a few months ago for $10k

maybee something like this?





see http://www.racerchicks.com/auto/tacomaX.html

what about a 2.7, or 3.4 petrol out of a 96-03 prado?, these are the similar to the newer hilux engines.

a rear locker, ranchos and big tyres would be sweet

when you said "modify" i was thinking more than just suspension and tyres.

i'd agree with the prado being better than the pajero, my mate has one and cant get up half the hills i can.

any way here's a vid of my prado that might interest ...

yeah i've got a 2000 model prado, goes better than my parents 1990 stock diesel lux off road, but there arent many options if you want to modify one. Thats why i'm going to swap it with my parents hilux at the end of the year because you can do more with them.
