Hi Evert

As jy in doornpoort bly of naby is, hier is n tool plek "just tools". Ek het twee weke terug n torque wrench daar gekoop. Dink dit was R400.

Weet nie van die gehalte nie, maar gebruik n torque wrench een keer in hoeveel jaar.

I think the crawlers Dingo is referring to are the extra low range gears. You can either add another Transfer Case, or you could replace your low range in your transfer case with a lower ratio.

And the Gbox and Tcase ?

Big D

Hi all

I extended the Diff breathers this weekend, Do I need to extend the Gbox And Tcase breathers aswell?

On the the diffs I unscrewed the breather, screwd in a nozzle, connected the tube/pipe, and then used the breather again on the other side of the tube. Correct, or should I leave the tube open

Big D

Sounds like he is not from SA. Maybe AUS?

Very Nice Photo. I was there aswell with Toni, but the Hilux was at home. Was there in the company vehicle, a Colt. Toni, Luke and I "rescued" a lady that was stuck with her 4x2 in the parking area. Most action the whole day! Toni got to exercise his winch. :D

All and all a very good day.

Welcome to the best Forum by far. The landcruiser pick up now has a 4.0 v6 engine, the same as in the Hilux and Fortuner. Think that would be best suited, legally :|

Big D

My Friend drives a Nissan Patrol with a Solid Front axle. When in 4x4 there is no drive/power going to the front wheels, even though the front propshaft is turning. Any Idees?

Recomended places in and around Pretoria where he could have it repaired.

Baie Dankie

Big D

Toe ek gesoek het vir n Hilux, toe kyk ek na betroubaarheid, en instandhouding kostes. As jy n tweede handse Voertuig koop, weet jy nooit wat om te verwag nie, en jy moet altyd die ergste verwag, Hou altyd n bietjie geld in die bank oor vir ingeval iets breek. Die SFA Hilux is baie goedkoop om insta...

What is the spec, How many NM?

Big D

Mikem only make their springs in 2 inch lift. So you will have to make up one inch on the rear, to match the front 3 inch. (maybe longer shackles) Do you have a local diff in the back. I thought that 1993 was the last year of the import diff. I had a gearmax fitted in the back and so far very happy ...

Bridgestone geolanders? Isnt Geolander, Yokohama?

Does the Hilux struggle with uphills now? If it struggles in 5th, dont let it "labour", rather change back to 4th. Dont think it would cause any damage, there are a lot of guys fitting bigger tyres.

Big D

Like Bretton said, all SFAs pull left. Why, because all of them want to get off the road. Some urge for it more than others. That is why I recommend taking it off road at least once a month. Soon you wont even notice that its pulling left, its just suggesting that its time for its mud bath again. Th...

Big D

O yes, and welcome Craig to the best Forum by far.

Why would you want clear windows instead of tinted?

Big D

Most of the tint help with smash and grab, so yes it does help with security.

Big D

Dankie Louis, vir al die hulp op my Hilux

Jip I bought the autoquip ones, will give them a try, and let you know if they hold up. Also had to replace after bout 2000km.

Big D

Im aslo interested in becoming a trainer.

Big D

Daar nog plek vir my? Het die kamp plek krag punte?

Dankie

Of dalk die laaste vrydag van elke maand. So 2 uur. Dan kry ons iets om te eet en drink, en dan praat ons Hilux. 8 )

What bell housing are the Guys using with the 2JZ engine conversion, on a SFA?

Come on Guys share the info.

Big D

I think youll sell that 2.8D engine quite quick. It may be slow but very reliable.

What bell housing are you going to use? Thats the big Q. You could fit any engine you like but finding a bell housing that will work is the difficult part

Good Luck and keep us updated

Big D

I like it. I like it alot.

Where are we going to get our hands on those rings? Anyone with a cnc plasma machine at work

I dont know who of you have seen this, but its hectic

Hi Mauritz

Ek het "spacer blocks" op my agter diff. Die Pro-Comp suspension kit gebruik dit. Maar voor vervang hulle gewoontlik die blades. Ek weet nie hoekom nie.

Dink die sal werk vir die SFA Hilux.

Uys, Het jy al n idee van pryse?

Big D

20L reserve. Thats when I start looking for a petrol station. :wth:

Big D

Bwahaha.

Ek het net my Bumper van 6mm plaat gebou. Sou nou ry ek altyd afdraande

Big D

Baie Geluk Louis

Onthou net om diesel in te gooi, en nie petrol nie

Big D

:D Ek kry nou so 6.5 km/l. 2.2 efi met 33 en so 6 duim lift. 110km per uur. 70% oop pad. 30% stad. Wat dink julle? Sleg of goed?

Big D

Help. I have a Lockrite locker in my front diff. Had it taken out and serviced and the guy said everything is 100%. The problem is when Im in 4x4 there is a ratchet type sound when I accelerate. Even on even ground. I have a sneaky suspicion that its one of the front hubs not locking? Can it happen?...

Big D

Baie Baie Mooi. :)

Big D

Isnt delo 400 diesel oil?

Shell semi-synthetic is for petrol and diesel. Why dont use that?

Big D

Helloo daaar Jammer ek was so stil die laaste paar weeke. Ek was uit die land uit. My bakkie is by die workshop, besig om my vooras reg te maak. So sal dit ook nie kon maak nie. Ons moet dt nie kanseleer nie maar uitstel tot die sommer, en weer n lang naweek. P.S hier in brits is dit &*%$ koud :...

Hi all What would you go for? Standard Raider stickers or some custom graphics? Arent there any graphic desingers or any photoshop'ers on the forum that can play with a few ideas?

Dankie

Wie was by die nationals gewees? Die weer was maar mislik maar daar was darem baie aksie!

Weet enige iemand wie se blou SFA Hilux LWB daar was? Die Hilux lyk nog baie standaard. Die Hilux het n tipe fender flare op, en dit is die wat ek opsoek na is.

Dankie

Big D

Im also interested. And I want mine to cut the fuel. Legal system is there to help the crooks. :x

Big D

My maag het nou skoon so hol kol
Rerig Jammer

Dalk kan jy ook die chassis no post. Hulle gaan verserker daai nommer plaat weg gooi. Enige ander manier om jou HiLux uit te ken, behalwe vir die extras, wat hulle ook gaan afhaal :evil:

When they test Tires for speed rating, you must know its against the harshest conditions. Maximum load, high temp, and for an extended time. If they give a tire a speed rating of 140km/h. You know you could do 140 km/h every day the whole day! Some sizes have a speed rating of 140 and some 160. The ...

Just my 2cents I also have a Commercial 4y. Back when I was doing research on these, phoning everybody, It seemed that only commercial knew about the Better 4y. After importing a few of the cheap 4Ys, they had endless trouble, which led them to change suppliers. They recon the more expensive ones ar...

Who works with vinyl graphics for cars?

I have a great idee for the hilux, but the prices are crazy!

Deon

Big D

Dit is die idee wat ek gehad het. Wit met swart wiele.

Big D

Johan ek wil net se daai is die mooiste Legend wat ek nog gesien het!

(jammer aan al die ander legend manne).

Big D

I dont understand why you would want to exceed 140Km/h. With Muds!

Dunlop SA are the importers of Cooper. Not the Manufacturer.

Cheers

Big D

As Julle dit die 16Jun maak is ek ook in.

Big D

I had a look at the dual transfer case setup. I think the replacement crawler gears are a cheaper option. On the dual setup, you have to shorten the rear propshaft and lengthen the front one. Except if you can organise one at a good price? :angel: Does your second t/case have a lower ratio in, or ar...

Big D

Baie Dankie. Sal maak soos Oom Blom se. Sal seker die HiLux volgende week invat. Van Zyl of Pretoria Spring works?

Blom waar kry jy gewoontlik jou springs?

Kan ek nog die shackles met langer vervang al het ek klaar n 4 inch lift. Wanneer raak die propshaft angle krities?

Dankie

Big D

All I want to know is how? I thought drive shaft angle limits the max lift to about 4inch? "The 4.5" & 7" front springs have degree shims attached to improve drive shaft angle." http://www.rockymountainsusp.com/toyota4_StAx.htm http://www.rockymountainsusp.com/gallery_toyota....

Big D

What spline should I get? I think they said 21 or 23 spline?

Big D

Bennie, what springs do you have in at the back? Do you still have the spacer? Should I keep the spacer? How much do you think I need to carry? 450Kg for an overlanding setup? RTT:40Kg Extra fuel tank: 70Kg (full) Water tank: 80Kg (full) Alu Canopy: 30 Kg ?? Two spare wheels: 20Kg Steel bumper with ...
