Hysteer for early FJ40 cruiser

Post by Busiboy »

Hey guys, I have a spring over and am currently looking at different methods for the Hysteer converson. Basically not happy with the current setup and looking at alternatives.

So far have seen the snake racing and Superior Eng options was wondering if there were any others out there?

Thanks in Advance

It is currently hysteer but it isn't right, it is made up of steering ocmponents and doesn't exactly sit the way it should, it works but I think I am much more likely to shear the bolts off and lose steering in the scrub.

Just looking for a hysteer option, I have the hilux disc brake conversion so I think I can now look at hilux hysteer options but i am going to have tie rod issues as it was shortened to make the current set up work.

Buying a made rock rod will fix this mostly I think but it looks like no matter which way I go I will have to do this unless someone can point me to a shopping list of parts that will make it work.

So far I think I am up for about 1500 ish to get everythign I need, althought the US components are a lot cheaper and shipping might make that work better. Only reason that will work is cause of teh Hilux discs.

Any gurus are welcome to help me out.

BBefore anyone asks, I paid someone to do the disc front end for me and I can't remember what the exact way it was done.
