Hey guys,

I'm looking at bobbing my hilux in the next few months.

Just after some motivational pics of other hiluxes out there that have been bobbed.

I've used the search but it seems that the images have been taken off the server.

Cheers.

I'm finding that my current set-up already has heaps of bump steer. I've put on a new steering knuckle, ball joints and bushes. I'm running 33's, with the afformentioned 2" body lift and 2" springs. I think my steering dampner is shot. Does the steering dampner make that much of a difference ...

toyrex,

Those look good! I take it those are the shackles for the front ?

You wouldn't happen to have a drawing of these would you ?

I need to get some drawings if I want a boilermaker at work to give me hand.

Cheers.

Hi diesel028,

Can you tell me why the dropped drag link isn't any good ?

Is it because of poor handling ?

Cheers.

Forgot to mention I'm running 33's.

I don't think 35's will fit with my current set-up.

Cheers.

Hey guys, I want to get some more lift out of my hilux. It currently has a 2" BD, 2" spring lift. I am looking at doing either extended shackles or dropped front hangers...or maybe even both ? Can I get away without having to get cross over steering ? I just want another 2" of lift, so what would be ...

Hey guys,

What is the simplest way to make up some extended shackles for the front ? Would there be a need for any other mods if I do the front ?

CHeers.

Hi Stumpy, I'm after 2" extended. Not too sure what rear springs I have, but they look like they are a 2" lift. Looking to make up some for the rear springs ? Is it possible to make up some for the front springs as well ? What would you recommend ? I have a 2" bodylift, I think 2" lifted springs ...

Hey,

I'm currently in the process of getting some extended shakles made up at work.

I am looking a 2 inch extended shackles for a LN106 Hilux (1990).

Does anyone have any drawings of extended shackles ? With dimensions as well ? I am going to get a boilermaker at work to make some up.

Cheers.

Hi, I also have a 2LT in my LN106 Hilux. It's completely stock except for 2 1/2" exhaust, running 33's. I have had it up to approximately 135km/hr. I agree it's a real slow poke. I have no idea how many true kms the motor has done, but I have resisted turning up the boost incase it blows. Cheers ...

Thanks carts,

I'll be doing the glow plugs this week !

Cheers,
Daniel

Hey guys, I currently have a 2LT motor in my LN106 Hilux. On start up, it takes a fair bit of cranking to get started - maybe 2 to 3 goes. I think I need new glow plugs. And then, when it finally starts up, it blows white smoke everywhere, however, after approximately 10 seconds the white smoke ...

Hi guys,

I'm just curious as to whether a canopy from a 1990 model Hilux (which incidently came off a 2001 model hilux) will fit a 1988 model Hilux (the boxy shape) ?

Cheers,
Daniel.

Hi guys,

I have recently put on some 33's on my ln106 hilux.

Just wondering what diff ratio I should be changing to so that my speedo reads more accurately ?

Cheers.

Have you checked to see whether the ball joint between the steering knuckle and the drag link is ok ?

On my LN106 the ball joint was distorted out of shape and this was the reason the drag link was hitting the u bolts...

Check yours ? Is there much free play in your steering ?

Hey guys, I originally bought a LN106 Hilux that had an engine that could not be started. Thinking that we could get the motor started, I went out and bought some rebuilt injectors. Well it turned out that we couldn't get it started so I sent off the head to get checked out.... A cracked head was ...
