Hey Charlie,
Can't wait for those rock sliders, what is the approximate price you are planning to sell them for ?
Are you also planning to integrate lift points into them?

My clutch is starting to shudder, and would like to replace it.
Which kit should i fit the Sachs, Valeo or OEM clutch kit ? So many choices and not enough knowledge.
Btw - what is the price to recon the gearbox, mine is starting to grind a bit too and hard to select gears when in 4x4

Re: Engine whining
I drove the bakkie with out the wife, and the whining still was there.
The bakkie has 316000 km on the clock, at idle there is no whining only on acceleration.
I have not tried to remove the belts yet, will try that this weekend.

Hi all,
I have a opportunity to purchase a high mileage toyota hilux 2.7 srx, with 313 000 km on the clock.
How much longer will the engine be mechanically sound?
What would the cost be to rebuild the engine or replace it?
Thanks
