Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Just to elaborate these guys must be nissan owners buying toyotas.

The W58 gearbox bolts up to the g52 bellhousing...

Why bother?

Had a 4runner for 6 months when I bought it torsions were wound up all the way never broke a CV, you only break them if you can't choose a decent line and don't rev the cars tits off with the tyre in the air.

huh? @ ozzymoe I'm not sure how a diff spacer would move it forward...

You don't need "heavy duty" torsion bars waste of cash just wind the stock ones up even with barwork they are fine just bs to get new ones.. If you'd prefer keeping the tiny bit of travel they have and saving the life on cv's ...

Interested toyo, now all I need to do is fine ln167 diagrams.

Get recaro's for 3k all made to bolt in!

I have some supra seats in mine, they're real comfortable and hold you in.
I don't know too many people that would spend 3 grand on seats, you can easily do it yourself for a few hundred, I've seen bucket seats from skylines/wrx go pretty cheap on ebay ...

i actually meant still running leaf springs all together just add a coil that makes the car taller and the coil take the harshness out of the bumps.

anyway have you ever seen a bundera front diff under a hilux?
i can get this bundera chassis real cheap so would the 3 link coil front end be fine ...

:?

I don't think anyone has ever done it...

One thing to know about leaf, it's not comfortable it will not be comfortable and you better find a good chiropractor if you do lots of corrugations.

If you want a comfortable ride go buy a commodore or something with coils, I find the ride in my hilux ...

Not to use a gear driven but to use a chain driven you can use the surf auto extension housing with a couple of mods to the 1uz auto which is what I'm putting in my hilux, to use a gear driven transfer there is no way but using an adaptor behind either the surf auto extension housing or buying the ...

304 or 308 over a 253 or try a lexus v8.

He means if you get people talking bs which happens often on here haha.

Only come in the front, CV joints or technical term Constant Velocity joints are used in driveline systems which need to allow for suspension and steering movement. Therefore no rear axle will have CV joints unless of course you have 4 wheel steer. Your hilux would be a solid axle front, the cvs and ...

lowrangeoffroad around $250 bucks for a rear set.

05's are too long I believe, Try the 04 or earlier IFS rear springs or 89-97 IFS rear springs.

I'd chuck an extra cab body on there, when and if I get around to doing it it'll be a 2004 SR5 Extra cab going onto my single cab chassis.

I currently run the stock diesel radiator with a single 16" Davies Craig fan and it only gets warmish around 95 degrees pumping the air con on a 35+ degree day. This is running a 1uz-fe

What kind of 4wding do you do that requires you to have live axle? Do you just want live axles for the sake of having more flex? If you bought a Toyota Hilux 05 onwards and put lockers front and rear and a lift with some decent muddies you'll go pretty much anywhere.

No worries I'll give this v6 cluster I go and see how that goes.

It's what a lot of the guys do when they want to upgrade the 2l-te in the surfs. They chuck in the 5l-e because it has the right sensor.

You're lucky you've got the 5l-e as if you had the 5l you wouldn't have the crank angle sensor I believe is what it's called. It's more the wiring that would be a ...

Glad it went well for you, Either option is easy and the adaptor if Chris doesn't have it you can get in a week ordering straight from the manufacturer.

Just get a a guage from a 2.4 petrol hilux and hook it up to one of the igniter modules. By the way I did the original conversion on your hilux and the guage in yours is the 2.8 diesel which wont work without a converter. Easy just to swap the guage

I've lined up a 3.0L V6 cluster not sure if ...

Guess ease and practicality it's good but If you want the cheaper option and really it isn't to hard modding the 1uz box for the extension housing take about 30 minutes and you'll save yourself a good couple of hundred bucks. Plus if you want to go manual down the track with the gear driven transfer ...

Or you could save the cash and just get the extension housing of a surf auto.

Inch worm sell 1 from the 4 speed auto to the hilux gear drive case on the website

Yeah they do I'd probably have a chat to Chris @ locktup to see what he reckons works better.

Well when I bought my hilux with the 1uz conversion done all it came with was the speedo, fuel gauge and tempo hooked up but the tacho never worked and I've been thinking lately of how to get it hooked up or the best way to do it.

Should I swap out my cluster and get one out of a 4runner? Mines ...

Like Jcas said you have to shorten the output shaft on the auto box from the 1uz and use the toyota surf extension housing off the surf auto I'm using an advanced adaptor (link below) but I can't say how good they are but Chris said they tend to leak so I'm hoping it doesn't will have to wait and ...
