Outer Limits 4x4 Board

im thinking of converting from 1ltr to the 4k corolla with an auto just looking for a bit of feed back on a couple of questions.
1. will the s3 rock hoppers have any problem drivin the auto given the taller 1st gear.i run 32 and 4.1 diffs.

2 what to do with the jack shaft.
just a little unsure weather to go 4k or something else.has to be auto though and under $1000 for motor and box[and for the search nazis yes i have searched]any input would be apreciated[ thanks in advance]

Be prepared to....

1. seriously cut up the trans tunnel for the trimatic to fit (or a really big bodylift...)
2. body mounts fairly easy.....grab some 75x75rhs and a oxy....
3. move the existing transfer case back, and make stuff around with tailshafts, OR, move the radiator....

Personally......i'd either fit another 1 lire and sell it, then buying a later 1.3 zook, or do alot of stuffing around to fit a 1.3 or1.6....

I trust this helps...learn from my foolish mistakes...

what's wrong with the corolla donk and auto?

thats why i asked every bodies input is welcome remember its goota be auto so suzi stuff is out.and i wouldnt swap it for a wide track in a million years

i thought there would been an auto in a swift or baleno one of them things

Hey zukin.

there are all front wheel drives.

no good.

cheers

damb suzuki for goin the cheepo front wheel drive

my mates uncle put a 3k in his with auto no body lift or any thing runs a special rubber type coupler insted of a jack shaft reckons it works a treat.would the 4k auto box be a similar size and lenth ,if it is ill pic his brain for some answers.no tunnel mods or moving transfer either

Nothings wrong with it, think its a good thing, but either I was doing something wrong when I tried fitting my 4k and auto, or it's not as simple as its suggested....

Quite happy for someone to prove me wrong.....

Note: the 4k and 5 speed is a different kettle of fish, as it will go in fairly easy..

what's the gearing with the 4K auto?

im not exactly sure i know its taller but i think itll work well with the s3 gearing.im at 80to 1 with standard 4 speed so im guessing about 60 to 1 with auto which is plenty low enough.any thoughts

you can get a kit to mount 4k etc...... But you have to move transfer back
Can get around that by using a flex joint off a lada niva with a bit of dickin
around.

yeh a bloke i know used a flex instead of a jackshaft ,is the auto the same as the one backing the 1200 motor cause thats he runs he never moved the transfer either

come on guys some more input would be nice im keen to get started will the s3 drive the gearing with auto ok

remember with a auto because of the torque converter what ever your final craw ratio is u double it, so if it works out at 60:1 its really 120:1

so you reckon it should have plenty of grunt in low range then

with a ratio of 120 and 32s u will be able to get out of the zuk and watch it climb itself

thanks mate

im happy with crawl of 95.73

sometimes need to use 2nd gear

ill probly rip it apart after this or the next trip just gotta buy engine and box now

I've got a 3K and auto box, dunno if thats of any interest to ya

ya might be a little too far away but thanks any way

yeah thats what i thought might b the case

she be right pal you need to buy a hilux i can keep up with the zook

didnt see you drive the test track with ya glorified work truck

Dude I was just looking in the news paper... corolla $300 running with auto.

Can anyone put some measurments up?

thanks mate can get one from local wreckers here in nowra for $532 with auto and 3 months warranty 400 for motor 132 for the auto.i appreciate the effort thanks
