Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Still standard gearing. Only going into put in the locker and a solid spacer.

Well I found some factory service manuals online to get me sorted.

Now since I am changing out the crush collar for a solid one, can anyone recommend a starting shim thickness? (may just save me a little time).

Cheers

But none the less, thanks for the replies

I'll have a workshop full of tools :D Just need the specs.

Were you refering to:

I've already had a look through there, lots of good info but I dont think the full range of specs were listed, just what he ...

Hi all.

Just after some info regarding the rear diff of the 80 series.

I need to know the required backlash, pinion bearing preload and carrier bearing preloads.

Thanks.

How cheap could you get this job done? Understanding that it's relative to how much work you can do yourself. Just after some oppinions.

What turbo would one run? I have a virtually new turbo from a late model defender at hands (diesel yes, but useable?)

Stand alone or interceptor type ECU ...

Glad you got it sorted mate

Just to clarify for my own purposes. I was under the impression that full time 4wd was not the same as AWD. Some minor technicality that I have forgotten

Well if your Prado is a full time 4wd it's no surprise if you disconnect a driveshaft all the drive is sent to that disconnected flange. No idea why the rear shaft isnt spinning when both are hooked up (if I am understanding you properly). Maybe an issue with the center diff or viscous coupling.

Nope, kit comes with, free wheeling hubs, gaskets for hubs, shims for axle end float and the new spool. No bearing.

Guess I will see when I get in there. Just hate to be without a vehicle for a couple days, though I highly doubt that will happen.

Cheers for the reply.

Hey all, I finally splurged and bought a part time conversion from marks adapters.

Just wanted to know before I start ripping in to the transfer case, if there are any other parts I will or may need to complete the job.

The instruction manual provided is giving me a part number for a tapered ...

My vehicle use to run gas. It did a head (exhaust valve seats I guess or whatever the common problem is). I know the price difference is a lot of fuel but I figure Id prefer the outlay to start then the consistent shight mileage. Not to mention diesel is just easier to get out in the middle of ...

I own a 93 FZJ80 and I have pretty much joined the ranks with the rest of the world and decided that the fuel consumption and inability to play in water is NOT in my best interests (plan to do a fair bit of touring).

I am trying to weigh up my options. I would really love to stick with a toyota ...

What on earth have they done to it?

My understanding was that throwing too much boost at an indirect-injected engine was riiiiiiiskay!

Hi all.

Just wondering if anyone knows whether or not the spindle bushes and bearings from a 79series will suit that from an 80 series.

I have some sitting in the bottom of my tool box and my own 80 series has developed a rather wicked howl/grind/whatever (verified noise against a youtube video ...

Haha I had considered that and as of now have wired up most of the new loom, just waiting on some relays, resistor and diode.

Following this schematic: http://www.lcool.org/technical/80_serie ... iring.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Fuses are definitely fine, but possibly the connections after them are not. There are 2 fuses, LHS and RHS.

Come the week end I'll throw the multimeter over everything and see what happens. Might end up going and buying some H1 and H4 connectors and solder them in.

LHS headlights dull
Hi all, just replaced my high, low and parker light bulbs and now I've got an issue with the LHS low beam being dull and the LHS high beam being so dull you can barely see it.

Fuses are ok and bulbs are ok.

Thought maybe a poor ground that I may have bumped and made worse?

If ...

Hey all,

Just chasing some pointers on replacing the clutch in my 80s. It's well and truly on its way out.

I'll hopefully have a workshop to use. So a hoist, trans jack, etc.

So far my searching and googling has refunded me little info on the subject. Only things such as "must jack front of ...

Hey mate, thanks for chiming in.

Smoke? no, never, a rich smell yes, but i know this is because the o2 sensor is shagged (maybe more rich now the maf sensor seems to be gone).

Vac leak, has been there for ages, do not think its worse now, BUT the car is running so terribly that i can't even ...

Haha yeah I recognized your name straight away.
That issue was regarding my o2 sensor. The 93 fzj80 i own has a vane type MAF sensor, it doesn't have a MAP sensor.

Your 92 cruiser? isn't that the 3fe motor??? mines a 1fz-fe, different kettle of fish.

Yes the leak has been there for ages, it made f all difference and i've emptied so muchb starter fluid into the engine bay it aint funny.

As for the current problem, i am pretty sure its got nothing to do with a vac leak that has been there for months. Plugs are virtually new, leads are new, dizzy ...

Wondering if my struggle to find this vacuum leak has anything to do with revs. Just found a source saying some lines won't produce vacuum until a particular rpm is reached:

"Port R from throttle body. Doesn't generate vacuum until 3000 RPM. When it does it pulls about 5.0 in/Hg."

Mind you I have ...

Thanks for the reply. I just cleaned up the maf sensor and the throttle body. It improved driveability but the issue is still there, plus another code > 31 - air flow sensor.

As for how it drives, slow acceleration is fine, but once i step on it a bit more (more load) it bogs down.
-While driving ...

It happened about 24-48 hours after the e10 was put in.
I dropped 1 litre of metho in just incase i got some water.

The vehicle ran on gas once upon a time, but no longer. The gas system has been removed. What was your thinking here?

As for cleaning the MAF sensor, i got the fluid, how did you go ...

I may give this a try thanks, unfortunately I don't think it will work.

My car is now nearly dropping revs to ZERO if i put my foot down too fast. Also my air filter is virtually spotless.

As for swapping sensors with someone, a great idea, I just need to find someone that doesn't drive a damned ...

Thanks for the reply. As I said o2 sensor is buggered and is disconnected, so it is out of the loop.
Just checked for codes, getting 21 and 24.

21 is o2 sensor, well I expect that code, 24 is IAT sensor. Sooooo onto more research to sort this out. :sleeping:

EDIT, seems as though the IAT sensor is ...

Hi all

Ok so my 93 fzj80 started massively hesitating on acceleration today. Just wanted some ideas on where to go from here.

I'll be checking for codes on lunch break tomorrow, but thought I'd get some opinions while I'm on here.

Possibly MAF, TPS sensor failure. How do I check these? Possible ...

Loosecannon, I believe I remember you telling me once brakes are not very important (ye ol' hilux) You must be getting old.

Good to hear you've sorted the issue.

On the note of feeling stupid, I've had more then my fair share.
