Gear box kafreakinboom!
Hello all!
On saturday avi on my way back from Kruger.....
Just outside Machado Dorp the gearbox started making some seroius KRRRRRRRRR noises
1,2,3 and 5 are the affected gears. 4 and reverse work. I was able to get back home in 4th.
My question is who can I take my lux to in the PTA area to strip and repair the box. I am guessing either a broken tooth or stripped cog???
Cheers H

Re: Gear box kafreakinboom!
If it's still the original box, look at the option of upgrading the box at the same time .... the old boxes can't handle the V8.
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Re: Gear box kafreakinboom!
Thanks for the help guys.
The bellhousing will fit the kzte box.
Complete kzte box with transfer case for R7500. but then they keep the 4y box and transfer case.
