Hilux 4x4 Forum

Anyone recommend somewhere to get windscreen and door seals for a single cab sfa?

Also looking for the door window rubbers /weather strip.

I sent you a Pm Hoppy

Hi hoppy
Yeah, it's the non vvti.
Can you supply a harness as I have an engine with no wires.

Does anyone know where I can get a dictator ecu and wiring harness for the 1uz?

Daar is 'n paar baie mooi voertuie daar hoor!

Please keep the pictures coming!

without a body lift you will have to do some surgery to the transmission tunnel to get the gearbox seated high enough. not a difficult job, but more labour intensive than a bodylift.

id say go for it!!

We have used the product on wheels and a mini cooper and have to experienced it affecting the original paint at all. You may need to apply some polish and elbow grease after removing it, but that's it. I really it's a great finish, and I'll be doing my Hilux pretty soon.

That Lexus is just as awesome! No way would I strip it for the engine... :silent: -F_D im not going to lie, it is an awesome drive i have second guessed my decision to strip it. unfortunately the exhaust is shot, the shocks are on their way out and some of the electrics are dying. for what it would...

oh, and the bumper will change, mainly to a tjm/arb type as the current one scares crap out of cyclists, and looks a bit mental!

been ages since i made a post so here goes. a nice lexus ls400 popped up nearby for £600 complete with 6 months tax and mot (annual roadworthy test) so i just couldnt say no. its 1uzfe engine will be transplanted into the hilux at the end of feb. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7308/12242179143_b767f5...

i bought my truck with 31"s and changed to 33"s. i found fuel consumption to be the same but with a loss in power.

hoeveel van n body lift het jy? ek like jou branches, maar Mpumalanga is n bietjie ver vir my om te ry van Skotland af! Mitsubishi agter discs pas sonder om die shafts te laat mashien, maar ek dink nie mitsubishi calipers het n Kabel handbriek nie, so jy sal n ratkas briek moet maak, of calipers kry...

jong, dit lyk awesome!!!
moes jy n body lift doen om spasie te maak vir die exhaust branches?

Starting to come together great Manny. :thumbup: :thumbup: To think I nearly went to stay in Scotland a few years ago, my grand mother was born in Dunfermlin( spelling) and I wanted to go over on an ancestrial visa, but things did not work out and I gave up on the idea. Probably too old now. your l...

looks good, definitely stealth.

Keep it up!

thanks Mud Dog
i actually plan on extending the stinger and having the bull bar cover more of the wing. most offroading here is in deep ruts or forestry so protecting the wings is not the worst idea.

last one looks like a 40 series cruiser :wth:

weet jy as dit n R151f ratkas is? laat weet as jy regtig vas sit en ek sal kyk as ek een die kant van die ewenaaar kan kry vir jou.

looking good Nico!

Manny, what did you do with the broken shock mounting? Were there any other spots with 'terminal' rust damage. Great project! Hilux D4D ORRA X130 4x4AG GP0228 what did i do to break it? just drove on scottish roads, parked it in the north sea, and pushed against it when fitting the new springs. wha...

Well done Manual Ons kan nie wag om die finale produk te sien nie. Is lekker om te sien dat jy kans sien daarvoor en dat jy iets probeer wat jy nie normaalweg doen nie. Ek wou nog altyd n SFA hilux he, so ek beplan om vas te hou aan die een, en as jy n ou motor wil he moet jy maar leer om om reg te...

Now that is vasbyt and dedication, Manny. Good luck with the project. :thumbup: Like the word spantard. Describes me 100%. :lol: when every part gets attacked with a wire brush, de-greased, acid etched, power washed, dried and then painted with POR15, vasbyt is the only option!! taking it apart is ...

En Ja, ek kan nogsteeds Afrikaans praat en lees, dit vat my net n bietjie langer!

here is my ln105 hilux when i got it about 2 years ago. older hiluxes like mine are getting really rare here in the UK as they get exported to Africa. http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6111/6363448183_5159df8877_z.jpg i cleaned up the wheels, removed the body stripes and fitted a canopy http://farm6.sta...

cheers jacques, i wonder if anyone who has the 2l has fitted a wildcat branch and noticed any major improvement im considering fitting a turbo or a eaton supercharger, or get a 2.4td ifs.

hi guys, my sfa double cab here in the UK is fitted with the toyota 2l 2.4ld.
did the sfa in SA ever come with this engine? im just after some ways of improving power a little, something along the line of a branch or some other suggestions.

cheers

what do you mean by break over?

I'm thinking you would really seriously will have to reinforce the chassis as it will now take a lot more strain. I have seen an old Hilux done like this and it did look quite nice big lorries have their chassis extended without any problems and they carry allot more weight, but then again they hav...

hey guys, on my modifying wish list is a chassis extension, i would like to put a single cab bed on my double cab. so apart from extending the chassis, brake lines, electrics and prop shaft, do you think ill run into any problems?

Welcome Manuel :clap: And how do you make up for Boerewors rolls? Must be missing those hey? hey chaina, dont even go there!!! I cant even gooi a braai for Christmas or new years cause its usually bloody snowing!! thanks for the welcome guys, regarding questions, i want to extend the chassis on my ...
