Re: Newbee
Rubin those SFA can go where most people are prepared to drive. I took mine to places, that I did not think that I would get out of, back tracking on the same route. Enjoy...

Sorry to reply so late ... only saw this now.Pettycash wrote:Mud Dog......a man that knows his Luxes of the sound of it
It is a 2.2 no difflocks only lockers on the hubs front,and its a 92'
Thanks for the info!!how do they rate on higher level 4x4 courses? I know the driver contributes allot so im sure ill find out sooner than later just curious how they are rated without the diflocks!?
The old SFA is still one of the most robust off-roaders around, and even without lockers, in the hands of an experienced driver it will go almost anywhere that any other off-roader can. With lockers it's unstoppable, will even climb trees. Your OME suspension will help you a lot with axle twisting terrain.
My old van had no lockers and I always managed one way or another - the newer one has a rear locker as standard, but I very seldom use it, and when I do it's more often to save the environment and tyres, than a requirement to negotiate an obstacle.
I see you're enjoying the vehicle. Great! Enjoy it some more!
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!
