Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi... im asking all the people who one a 79 toyota hilux what the biggest mud tyre you can fit on a hilux with out braking axels and other Cheers

Well without any mods a 32" will be scrubbing.

Tell us more about your truck is it completely stock or have you done suspension/body lift, moved diff forward, well back or tray

as previous guy said, tell us more about your truck. With my old one i had stock diffs, 2.4L diesel motor with 5 speed gear box and i was able to turn 37's (however i only wheeled on them once.... so can give an accurate guide ot how well they really hold up) but when i did take it out it performed fine. however i had ifs rear springs, rears up front (axle forward 3"). it sat approx 4 " over standard

thanks 4 all that guy.. i only just got my truck but soon im putting 3inch suspension lift under it and going to bye 33s-10.5 mud
terrain tyres 4 it cheers

will go fine, i use to have parabolics (about 2-3" lift) and ran 33"x12.5"x15" BFG Muds on the same driveline as i posted above. your drivetrain will stand up to it easy and with the lift u shouldnt scrub at all

so do any of you guys no what gear ratios i will need to run to put a 5 speed gear box in the hilux :?:

back to the original question ive got an 82 model mith an 18r and im pushing 32mtrs with a welded diff and i havnt broken an axle yet in a year. are you going to mate your 18r with a 5 speed.

im not much of a cars person but all i can say it is a stock 79 hilux and im looking to put a 5speed manual in it because i no they came out with
column shift but the guy i bought the hilux off put a 4speed stick shift in it

yeah can you let us know how ya go with it.
thanx
