Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Yeah width would be good, but it's the disc brakes i'm chasing, and the Aisan hubs.

No word on where to get the 5 speed from fellas?

Cheers for the help.

Hi all,
With the exception of the factory 5 speed, what's the best, most common truck to pull the bits for a conversion?
BJ6*'s, BJ7*'s and BJ42's are very thin on the ground over here in Perth.

Also, is slotting in a 75series front diff a straightforward excersise into a '79 BJ40? Mounts need ...

Hey guys, was chasing help from some gurus if possible.
I have a '96 1HZ 75 series ute, and it's a pain to start. Cranks for 20-30 seconds or so before it'll kick over.

It's much less of a problem on colder mornings, oddly enough.

It's worse, after driving the vehicle, when it's at operating temp ...

Cheers thrashlux,
From my reading, the H150 is the way to go (are they ex all diesel 80's?)

How much of a difference is there in hole spacings? I have access to a lot of machining gear at work (mills, lathes etc etc). Failing that, I'll just have a machinist do it for me.

No idea on gearbox shaft ...

Hi,

I have a 1985 Troopy that i've put a Toyota 1UZ in.

The original H55F is starting to make some unkind noises, and it's just getting worse. I'd like to put another box in, question is, is there anything stronger, that will bolt upto my bellhousing?

Reason for asking, is apparently there is 2 ...

105 = Live axle front
100 = IFS

X3.

Longer ones on the rear.

Nah mate, cruiser ute.
I was running 15x10 procomp rockcrawler rims, 35x12.5's.

How low can we go before we risk rolling one off the bead?

I just spent 2 weeks up Cape Lavique, had the tyres down as low as 8psi and they looked like they still had30 in them. Didn't bag out at all, and got stuck on the beach more times than I care to remember. Definetly not for sand IMO, not without beadlocks and letting them down further....

Just curious as to whet sort of kms you blokes are getting to a set of tyres.
Had mine on the cruiser and for a bias ply, they're very good on road and was considering leaving them on there.

You guys running yours on your daily rig, will I get 50000 kays from a set?

Cheers

Run an exhaust snorkel aswell, just incase you need to start it underwater.

Not sure what that means, but no worries.
The wheel shop stuck 40 in them when I had them fitted. Many people have left tyre shops with 80psi in tyres before... And it usually appears to be the slowest person on site that fits them up, more often than not having no clue what pressures should be run ...

That can be dangerous running them that high due to them being a bias contruction.
Bias tyres heat up fast when driven long distances and when they heat up the tyre pressures increase fast and can cause a tyre blow out.

Not sure what that means, but no worries.
The wheel shop stuck 40 in them ...

Maxxis site says a max of 30psi in the 35" Creepys, is this right? I have been running 40psi since I got them!

how do you cool the water?????????????????????????????????????????????? Hiclone?

Glycol. Dry ice. Even ice from your freezer. Just to name a few, and there are plenty of ways I assure you.

I've personally seen sub zero intake temps and INTAKES FREEZING UP on dyno runs, using W2A intercooling. As ...

and what cools the water genius?

The air flowing through the radiator, just like the air/air intercooler.

A water/air intercooler has an extre step of heat transfer, which makes it less efficient.

Shadow, you obviously haven't seen many well setup water to air setups. Air is NOT the only way of ...

SAY WHAT!!!!

On planet does the physics of a heat exchanger allow cooling below ambient?

Or are you confused with a water spray using evaporative cooling voer the outside of ANY cooler.

Or are you adding ice to your water every 400m like th drag boys do? Not so good for touring, and the ice ...

Using an air to air cooler, you'll never cool your intake charge below ambient. You really won't get close to ambient actually.

Water to air you will.

Hi,
Can someone please let me know how hard it is to swap HZJ75 front calipers onto my FJ75?

Bolt on or is it more difficult than that.

Good condition HJ/FJ75 stuff is rare as over here in the west.

Cheers

trailerparts.net is the way to go.

Bearings are better than using bushes in my opinion, and for the price, why wouldn't you?

I picked up my gear for under $50. Flangeless hub, bearings, split pin, seal and bearing cap.

You might save a few dollars using a bush, but in the scheme of things, what's ...

Glow plugs relay/timer?

I got an overhead console out of my old troopy and was wondering if it'll fit my ute or not.

Didn't want to start pulling the interior out if it won't fit.

Oh, the troopy was an old 1985 FJ75 and the ute is a 1997 HZJ75 with a removable screen.

Cheers

Need to pull the h55f from my 75 series to do some mods and was wondering if anyone has done it on their own.

Are they particularly heavy? I have a selection of trolly jacks and the missus to assist if need be.

What have others done?

Ok so they can me made to fit, but it's not easy.
How about 70 series MWB doors? better to use those?
Cheers

A mate of mine insists that it's possible to easily mod a set of troopy doors to fit a ute.

Anyone done this?

Is it possible?

Is it worth it?

Cheers boys,
rojak, that site is frigging awesome.
I didn't manage to find the year I was chasing (1997) but I did find some electrical drawings that may just help me out.

Any more help appreciated too....

Been searching all arvo, but can't for the life of me find the wiring diagrams of the humble 75 Series cruiser.

Do they not exist online at all?

Someone must have a copy somewhere?

All I need is the dash/interior section etc.

Cheers

Love the tube bar mate, if you ever sell it.... drop me a line.
Got any more shots of the tray?

Looking real good

Cheers men, just what I wanted to hear....

Another annoying body lify query....
Just need to know if I keep or ditch the stock rubber mounts when I do a body lift.
Blocks will be made of steel most likely and i'm not keen on bolting the cab directly to the chassis without some sort of 'give'.

Will it be ok?

Cheers
