Hilux 4x4 Forum

I definitely also have to do something about my brakes. With the recent rains that started again I was once again reminded to have much bigger following distances (for other road users to take advantage of). My left rear wheel has the tendency to lock up.

Hi Wade

Congrats! It looks great. Many happy miles with your new bakkie.

I will take a photo or two and post it here...

Wat 'n nice forum! Ek's Leon, ek ry 'n 1985 SFA Hilux wat ek oorgedoen het van hoek tot kant. Het 'n 5L diesel enjin ingesit nadat die 2L sowat 600,000 probleemvrye kilometers afgelê het! Ekstras sover sluit in vol OME, IPF's en ARB. Sterk oppad (sodra my skip gekom het) is ARB lockers voor en agt...
