Anyone having similar problems with a stock 3RZ

yes.. since the day I bought it which was 4 yrs ago with 95K on the clock..

have tried filters, plugs, leads, tappets and all with no change..

I have resided myself to the fact that it's just the way they run... but it's starting to shit me ...

What ...

thought you would have welded a thinner piece of tube in where you "made room" for the spare...

quite a lot of strength there that is now gone..

welds from what I can see look decent, can't really see but they look like they have a good amount of meat in them.


all I can see is a few tack welds :?

if you ahve any doubt as to whether it is strong enough or not.. then it most probably isn't.. get a pro to do it.. will only cost a few ...

Coils are the way to go :armsup: . Cheezy Racing did mine and it's grouse.
The chassis at the steering box will need to be strengthened to stop cracks.
Makes the Hilux come alive offroad and on road is smooth as (mine runs soft springs so I get a bit of body roll)

So does he use a Bundy front ...

what size tyres are you running now ???

post pics of you "stuck" with those size tyres please so we can see what terrain you drive..

cool... will give my mates engineer a call tomorrow..

cheers for all the advice

So are 205R16's the only size fitted.. what about SR5's etc..

As far as legal is concerned.. 15mm increase is allowed in height.. so not even 1 inch :roll: ...

And I dont think I can be bothered with engineers to be honest..

Maybe just run a more aggressive 205 or similar size and get some ...

Anyone know if Aus delivered Hilux ever came on 7.50R16 tyres as standard.. ??

And if so.. what years..

Looking to stick some on my 02 Lux.. but am looking to keep this vehicle all legit and legal (last Rangie was no where near it )

is it just the picture or does the whole tray slope towards the cab ???

fark those mudflaps are FUGLY... but I understand they are just there to keep the engineer happy.. but jesus..

I AM OVER DEFENDING MY TRUCK there is some narrow minded people here
what they fail to realise is that it is the same track as a gq and parked next to a 4 inch lifted shorty the shorty is the same height and nobody is baggin the gqs on 4 inch lift i fail to see the diference but iam sure you will ...

yeah im hearing ya but with the extra length in the springs it lets me run realy soft spring which close up real nice and 2inch 80 springs on a disco give it 5 inches of lift not 4
i was running 2 inch 80 springs but they were real soft which was good but i was not overly happy with the way they ...

nice Postie bike Schuler...

is it a go-er..

Not sure on a reliable net source but here is what I have forund anyway if its any help.

Your 02 2.7 will be a 7.5mm, 4.3 ratio, open diff. All the 2.7s are the same and that is what mine had.

The surfs seem to run 4.56 and the older 22r SR5s run 4.88s.

To answer your question yes any of the ...

thanks... on closer inspection the "B" could actually be a "3" but there appears to be a mark on the plate very close to it which makes it look like a "B"... which would be right as there is definalty a LSD in the rear..


So am I correct in assuming that any IFS Surf/4Runner/Lux front diff will fit ...

W56 A05B

Cheers...

Total noob when it comes to 'lux (see username ;) )

My Lux is an 02 2.7 petrol..

- Do Surf/4 Runner front centres fit ??
- Are all ifs front centres interchangable ??
- I assume all rears are the same as any lux ??

Looking at upping the gearing a little to co-incide with a larger tyre swap ...

thanks.....

took a look at placard code and it does not make any sense i.e. does not match up with the code on that other link...

if anyone can decode it... W56 A05B ...

i'm sure I could work it out from the vin placard...

just means I actually have to go out to the cold garage.. lift the bonnet.. and read

What do you guys think about this front mount? I know it will take a load form above but i am not sure about the side ways strength I was thinking of putting a X between the 2 mounts but i have a feeling that if i rest ...

anyone know what ratio my 02 3rzfe 2.7 petrol Lux has..

If you bend over and blow gas out your ass that might make it work

Nothing better than helpful info, especially when spoken from experience :roll:

My in laws used the Aurora Satellite System on a recent trip to QLD. They used it more so because they had to pick the bits and pieces for the ...

OK... I hope I didnt come across as rude.... but I do this all day long.. and didnt feel like it right then..

Your best bet for perfect tele around Australia is the Aurora Satellite System.. which entails setting a dish up everytime you stop and a set top to view pics.. this will get you ABC, SBS ...

Guys, I am a tech support/engineer for a television antenna importer/wholesaler...

There is too much information above that is just purely not true..

havent had time to check...
but worth a shot...
got a service coming up soon.. so may just get them to check it out..

01/02 - 2.7 efi Hilux...

Sometimes runs brilliant then other times will feel like has no power, does not accelerate smoothly...

Sometimes there is no accelleration until I get to like 4000rpm.. then all of sudden.. it starts pulling real quick..

Swapped all the usual suspects.. new plugs & leads ...
