Ive got the 99 model, same engine but non turbo...but depends on how urs has been driven, but i blue the big end bearings+more and 258000kms but i think that was just unlucky cause i only had it for about 8 months before it happened. To answer your question as to what this model is like, they are ...

Mine were like that in my 99 hilux, i just got out the trusty old grinder and that fixed it pretty quick haha, just make sure u know what to cut!

Hey

Thank you..

I have the 3.0L non turbo diesel engine and the best thing I did to get better fuel economy out of it was New injectors, Extractors and run Diesel Power injector cleaner through your fuel...went from 450kms to the 70L tank up to 600km...very happy I know its not the same engine, but id assume its ...

Hey bud, to test the starter motor, if u get someone to turn the key so its cranking, and hit the bottom of the starter with a hammer a few times, a good smack, it should start, or the wire running over the top of the starter could be loose, i dunno what it is but it could be the problem, happened ...

Hey mate, Go with the Hitachi, Im a chippie and do alot of commercial steel working and the Hitachi's are what I've found to be a great droppy

Hey guys, I looked for information regarding this but couldnt find any that suited my search needs I have a 99 Hilux, it has a 5L engine in it, 3.0L diesel and I wanna put a turbo in it, engine was reconditioned about 10,000kms ago, so Im curious what is the best turbo system I can put on this? and ...

Just curious, I have a 99 Hilux and i just wanna know, How much did it cost you to put a turbo on? I have a 5L 3.0L diesel engine as well and I really want a turbo?

What is the pricing on these tyres? I was lookin at 33" Maxxis Bighorns for around 250 each plus 70 each for new 15x8 rims but if these are a better price, maybe i should look at these? Anyone used both these types of tyres? I really want BIG side lugs on my tyres for mudplay so any suggestions?

Could be the whole starter motor, and if its making the same sound as mine was which I think it is, while ur tryning to start it, get someone to smack the bottom of the starter motor with a hammer and if it starts u need a new one...after i put the new one in, i still had trouble cause a wire that ...

Oh righto, thanks bud, maybe ill just save for a while and get twin lockers

Yeah I've had a couple people tell me to put a front locker in, but more people say a rear cause wouldnt that make up for the limited flex on the front?? and also, if u put a locker in the front of an IFS, doesnt that give u more of a chance of snapping cv's and stuff cause tyres are always lifting ...

Just wanna find out, Im really looking in to getting a rear locker in my 99 Hilux, IFS ute, but im really restricked, $$$wise, so I was wondering, is it worth waiting for a long long time, to get an air locker, or go for an auto locker? Any problems people have had with auto lockers or air lockers ...

hey piglet, I've actually been thinking about the XGS's cause I've heard some good things about them, with the discount at coopers plains store, do u have to be a member of outerlimits forum? im new to this so is the member an extra thing? or am i already a member haha, $120 each im pretty keen on ...

I have the 3.0L diesel 5L engine in my 99 lux, and i Had these same noises, but it happened after I blew the engine, it was making big end sounds but it was really running bad already...Take it to a mechanic and show them, where abouts do you live?

Thanks bud, I must have missed the 4x4action mag that had the locker comparo in it...what sorta problems do u get on road? I only want the rear locker?

A couple of mates of mine have told me to stay away from auto lockers?

Thanks mate, I will do that..

Hey dudes,

Just wonderin what would be a good rear locker to put in my 99 IFS lux, and how much it would cost to get fully fitted?

Cheers blokes

Im gonna ring em up and check, see what they reckon is the best for my model lux....superior engineering that is

Ive had this before just after a had a new engine put in, turned out to be a combination of the uni joints being the worst of it, and that my front diffs were still locked in. Also engine mounts my uncle had problems with in his extrail after bumpy beach 4x4ing and that made it run incredibly bad ...

Bilstein appears to be the winner so far..

I have a 2 inch suspension lift atm, thats all mods suspension wise. I need new ones cause they are old and time to replace it, leaking shit etc Dont really have anything in mind of what to achieve, max flex out of rear axle as i can, just gotta fuck around with the leafs to give it more down travel ...

Awesome, I currently am running old man emu but I'll give bilstein a look aye

Well maybe Ill hit up the auto eleccy 2 houses up from me then aye
