Does that mean that it could be licensed as an 8 seater? Hence be classed as a commercial vehicle for rego purposes?

Not being a Toyota lover (sorry guys), someone told me that a Prado was bigger than a 100 series Cruiser! Is this true and also does the Prado come in an 8 seater variation with fittings for 3 side facing seats in the rear, as I have only seen them in 7 seater config!?

As already said, look for things you would normally look for but also put it into low range and make sure it doesn't jump out of gear under load. As for the capability side, they are like comparing chalk and cheese. You would have to push a 4 runner alot harder to get to the same places a stock ...

My advice would be not to do it yourself, if I remember from my windscreen fitting days, the classis RR screen was a very tight fit and quite often you had to sit on the inside and push the roof up with your feet to get the screen to come back in. It would be very easy to break one. I would just get ...

Gday guys, fairly new to the tyre choice buisness, what sort of rims are the best/strongest to run with such large tyres and how much metal would need to be massacred out of the guards on an 89 Rangie 4 door to fit these big suckers under. Is there any other mods that would need to be made. At the ...

Stained, Ring up Kevin at Jordan Rovertech in Bentley he deals with and installs the 6.5s into defenders etc... I saw them putting a 6.5 into a 130 quite a while ago.

I just ran a piece of clear hose from the blled nipple on the slave up to the master resovoir then just kept on pumping through until the air stopped escaping. You only had to top up until the hose was full and as long as the hose stays submerged in the resovoir there should be no problems. This was ...

For the boys in WA, I will be building a Hybrid soon but before I even considered it I went to the licensing centre inspection pits and asked what I can and cant do. They gave me a nice thick booklet which had heaps of questions in it. They said if you can satisfy whats asked in here, no probs if ...
