Outer Limits 4x4 Board

im chasing a new motor-box-transfer combo to replace the daihatsu gear.
At the moment id like to go auto, but dont want to spend $ on adapters etc.

chasing a list of possible cheap combo's.

- a whole hilux drivetrain ( any auto??)
- Holden v6/8, t700 and cruiser transfer

For cheap would commo v6 plus hilux bits be the go?

Vitara 1.6 with its own auto and transfer.

I second that....would be a sweet conversion for the daihatsu and easy to set up.

Isn't the hatsu comparatively heavy?

22re or a 3rz, auto and lux transfer

Not sure, They would be close. You could possibly go a suzuki GV V6 with matching box and tranny?

I looked at dropping a 3rz-fe into my zook...would have been lots of fun but too much modding to be worth it. I could imagine in a daihatsu that the 3rz-fe would fly...nice revvy engine, more than enough poke for the average yob and easy to go lux diffs upgrade in the future as well.

Hilux driveline, Hilux chassis.

Feroza Body

ta da

use a mq/mk pootroll remote transfer case then u can go any motor and box combo you want and can be had very cheep

I know of a 3rz + computer + manual box + transfer for About $1600

the rocky weighs in about 1800kgs.

3rz would be cool, but have no idea if it comes with auto and transfer.

patrol divorced case doesnt have low enough gearing for me, and no aftermarket options ( gears way down the line)

currently on patrol 4.6 diff gears but want to go way slower

not as cheap but can get a hilux with holden v6 conversion for $2800.

so im thinkin on goin this route and buying a whole/wrecked 4x4 and pinching the gear of it.

Any more ideas?

iuzfe v8 and i have an auto and transfer to suit for 400

V6 commy, with factory commy auto ,computer, harnesess & wiring looms = $ 500ish, marks adaptor =$1800ish then hilux tranie = $300ish the next issue is hand brake. was the rocky H/Brake off the trannie or rear brakes,if off the rear breaks the above setup willbe fine if off the trannie then use a nissan GQ auto & trannie,alot stronger & for sale in outers for$1000,
this setup will be powerfull enough for your needs & will still break diffs, cv's, axels ect. or you could go the V8 versi, you still break stuff but quicker,,,
I stoped breaking stuff in mine when I went to GU running gear.

you can get 4.8 or 5.12's and one even lower from the Icelandic trucks that run 44's stock for patrol diffs.
