Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Thanks Zoltan

Was it difficult to remove the immobiliser?
I have never seen one in the flesh and don't have a clue. :-P

Gday

I have a HZJ75 with a cooked engine and am looking at sourcing a replacement.

I have access to a 1HZ out of a 100 series and am wondering what differences there are between the 75 and 100 series.

After some research I have seen that I may need to swap over the sumps and the spigot bearing ...

I bought a Drill Doctor 500 for my old man about 18 months ago from Just Tools http://www.justtools.com.au/ It was the best price I could find at the time.

The sharpner works great BTW :-)

Guys,

I have a 1992 75 series cruiser ute with fairly bad rust at the bottom of the windscreen.

Has anyone had it fixed and do you have a ballpark figure for the repair?
Also, I have been told that you can buy fibreglass repair sections for this area.
Any idea where I could get these from?

Cheers ...

I just bought an 5" screen ebay one which arrived yesterday. It came with 2 different street nav programs and runs WinCE 5 unlocked. I just copied my oziexplorer CE (the core runtime version off the ozi web site) onto the flash. Renamed the ozi directory and exe to that of the second nav program I ...

Don't feed the troll

Your both right, they were used in the KZN130 & KZN185 Surf's as well as the early Playdo's (KZN185 chassis and running gear with different body).
AFAIK no aussie sold hilux had a 1KZ-TE from factory only 5L-E (3 litre, ECU controled fuel pump, no turbo).



Sorry Dougster, Aussie delivered ...

If you are on the Sunshine Coast, don't forget to have a look at Trailblaza fridges. They are made in Caloundra and in my opinion are realy good.
They are just about unbreakable.

But bike engines only last 2 weeks between rebuilds and cost $1.50 to re-ring.

Your gauge must be dodgy or your tank has a massive dent.

I think the smallest tank in the hiluxes is 66l

I have a Glind. It works great

Hi PP,

Any reason why the night navruns have been moved to Easter?

The easy navrun last year realy suited the feel of the family fun day last year. The kids had a ball driving round the park at night.

second question, if you were to use a 350, 2 speedglide and GQ transfer and make the motor run backward would you need to flip the diffs?

NICK
In theory maybe.. but in practise its almost impossible.
The engine would need custom oil pump, water pump, camshaft and distributor.

Its a simple ...

I have a copy of the instructions now.
Thank you all for the offers. :-)

One more question -

My locker has 3 hex head screws holding the seal housing on but all the docco I have got from ARB show a spring clip doing that job.

Has there been a change to these lockers to help fix the o-ring ...

I have just gotten hold of a 2nd hand hilux airlocker (RD23).

Does anybody have a copy of the installation instructions that they could send me please?

Cheers,

I'm in a bit of a bind.

The missus was driving our 2002 Hilux (with the 1KZTE TD motor)
today and three times the turbo light came on and the endine stopped.
She coasted to the side of the road and restarted it a minuite later each time
with no problems.

All the fluids are OK and the electrical ...

I hope that no-one pokes any holes in your idea.
This is exactly what I have just finished doing in my ute.

Cheers,
Brett

Nah, I didn't win it.
Didn't it take off at the end!
I thought for a while there, nobody was realy interested in it and it would go cheap.

I just hope the winner uses it and just let it go to waste.

Thanks for the reply.

I checked with ARB on Friday and they said it "should" fit.

I want to try and make sure before I shell out any cash.


Cheers,
Brett

A couple of questions for the diff gods :-)

I'm looking at a 2nd hand locker taken out the front of a 85 Hilux. The guy that is selling it reckons that it is a RD02. All of my research tells me that this is wrong and that it must be either a RD01 or a RD23. the RD01 is a 8" diff and a RD02 is a 8.9 ...

Surfin Alec wrote:Not an auto is it? PM if it is as it may be the same probs as in Surfs with the 1KZ-TE and towing. It has to do with the auto cooler in the radiator being so dam efficient and blocking most of the outlet in the bottom of the radiator.

Nope. Manual

While driving home today from camping(lightly loaded with aproxx 600Kg Camper),
the temp gauge was basicly going up and down like a yo-yo.
As soon as I hit any hills of any reasonabe length, the engine temp crept from 1/2 way on
the gauge to the red line.
It seems that ...

33 x 12.5 x 15 BFG muds measure 833mm. They are 8mm too tall :cry: .


Every 7.50 is a different size. You have to base your +15mm measurement on the STANDARD 7.50x16 size - which is published in:

A couple of simple Questions

What are the rules for tyre and wheel mods "Light Commercial Vehicles" and defines a "Light Commercial"?

Are 31x10.5s legal on a Hilux? What about 30x9.5? ( I have spoken to QT compliance people and got a heap of non-definite answers)

The latest RACQ magazine has an ...
