Some pics of why I hate powder coating

Jaws

Very good advice from Mud Dog. My stof pad rock slides are rusting under the power coating

Jaws

I've never been impressed with a build in satnav system. For me the ideal would be if the head has mirror link. That way I can have Google maps or Waze running from my phone displayed on the head unit

bullebak probeer maar n auto trimmer. Hulle behoort te weet hoe om dit reg te maak

Jaws

As gevolg van Petri heuk dit nou erg baie vir n nuwe bakkie. Maar daar is nog niks fout met my ou ene nie.

Jaws

I love those bumpers. Espesially the clean look of that one. Only thing I don't like is the bright checkered plate. I painted mine black but the paint doesn't stick well to the galvanised plate

Jaws

Wow those seat covers really looks terrible. Are you going to keep them ?

I got Takla seat covers 7 years ago and they still look great. Only problem is with my work pants I slide around a bit on the seat due to the material used.

Jaws

Thanks for the update looking good

Seems like injector failing is more prominent in pre 09 Hiluxes

Seen a few 09+ models with high milage on original injectors .

Mine is almost on 180k with original injectors and according to techstream all four perfectly in spec .

Richard How much power does the CPAP use ? From other posts it use very LITTLE power. Thus you only need a very SMALL inverter. I have two small inverters that you can borrow till that plastic card gets its shape back. :thumbup: Bring your CPAP machine to my house, and we can do a quick couple of t...

Hi all, So over the last couple weeks I have been noticing an injector knock when cold and about 30secs later the motor quietens down. There is a slight knock when warmed up but noting hectic. Being the pedantic type I am, I bought a version of Techstream over bid or buy and decide to do a leak tes...

Kan net net Chris saamstem nie ek geniet my 3l D4d . 170 k km sonder 'n dag se probleme. Ek het die naweek my Hilux se rekenaar ge scan en al 4 injectors is nog perfek binne spesifikasie.

Ek het volle vetroue in my voertuig

Jthynsma het jy gewen?

Jaws

As to why this happened no idea

As far I'm aware the suspension from 2005 all the way to 2015 are identical

Any expert that can confirm ?

Also look at after marker suspension adverts they alway only advertise one for the Vigo

Jaws

Please let me know if you don't want it because then I will collect it

Jaws

I'll pm you details, I got them from an awesome guy called Chris.

He has it at his business close to Carnival City. You must just collect.

I'll pass this one on to you , if you want you can give Chris a six pack of beer.

But you will have to take the complete suspension including leaves springs.

Jaws

Hi I got offered the suspension off a Hilux that only did 4000 km so basically brand new. Seems like you need it more :-)

What area are you in ?

Jaws

Baie geluk

Hallo Herman. Square wave of sine wave, maak nie saak nie. Die belangrikste is dat ek 'n sterk magnetiese veld wil skep en dit kan ek net deur hoë ampere kry. Dis hoekom mense dink ek wil 'n inverter bou wat glad nie die geval is nie. Om n magnetiese veld te skep sal die las induktief wees. Sal mor...

Jaws

Wil jy n blok golf of sinus golf uit set het?

Ten sy ek iets hier mis ,is hierdie dood eenvoudig.

Wat se tipe las is dit - kapasatief, induktief of resisitief?

There are no facilities , no water only a long drop. One night is enough.

It was a simple joke , very common when some replies on 3 year old topic, I'm sure Glen is wearing his big boys pants and saw it as such.

Testing shows that the influence of the bonnet guard makes almost no noticeable difference on engine performance.

Rusti, Toyota did it it right on many occasions but all motor manufacturers have a few embarrassments. IMHO the KZTE was their biggest embarrassment! The 3l D4d is basically a Kzte with newly designed head . Unchipped they are very reliable , chipped by a backyard mechanic they tend to destroy the ...

Jaws

After market turbo systems generally over stress a motor that was never designed for the additional boost and power. Toyota bakkie motor are renowned for being reliable not for making the most power.

eish i bought my suzie with bonnet guard... guess it will have to go I read all the comments here smiling. Don't believe everything your read on the Internet .

Jaws

100% normal, I have never seen a D4d over a 150k km that does not look exactly like that. I'll take a pic of mine to proof it :-)

And I usually clean mine every now and then

Hi Chris that's why I asked could not remember that a cage was required when I read the Sans but I do see it being used everywhere that why I wondered . Yes the distance from open drains and windows does make the installation a bit more challenging . I do think that the cage is the best way to do it...

Chris have you checked SANS for gas installation or do you guys have local regulations down in DA ville ?
