Jip, 'n mens sal die beursie moet rek om 'n R20K plus bedrag te akkomodeer. My idee is om die "dop" te bou en verkoop. Dan kan die koper dit self sprei,verf,powder coat,ens soos hy wil. Dan maak dit my tyd minder en die koper het darem nog so bietjie aandeel in sy nuwe kappie Indien die ka...

Re: My Hilux's canopy

Neewat, dit pla nie. Die canopy het my ~R9000 gekos om te bou. Ek glo as 'n mens alles uit aluminium laat maak sal jy geld spaar wat ek moes uitgee op powder coating en verf. Maar dan moet jy/of iemand die welding doen Dit klink erg maar as 'n mens alles begin op tel is dit nogal rof. Daar is gewone...

Re: lift on KZTE

Hi Piet

I'm confidend that the 31" will fit in the space for the spare whell. the reason is that a longrange tank is fitted, and the spare sits below it. The only thing is that the 31" will be wider, creating less ground clearance below the wheel. So I guess that I'll move it in the back

THANX Well, then in that case I think that 31"'s then the way te go. This should correct the speedometer error and won't have such a great influence on the ratio as the 32"rs or 33"rs. From this, if you change the ratio, it'll overcome the problem of the low rpm vs feul issue. But tha...

Re: 3.0 KZTE 4x4 difflock only in LR4x4

Hi Piet

We just need to find out what each swith does. One of those will be an interlock switch to enable the difflock only when in LR. this is the switch that we need to bypass.

One will need to check that it doesn't intefere ith any of the other functions of the vehcile

Re: 3.0 KZTE 4x4 difflock only in LR4x4

Hear hear.

That is exactly what my thoughs were. When driving hard sand, a diff lock will do. I think that the sysstem gets the LR feedback from a switch on the TF case. I know that my Jeep has switches on the TF to show which function is selected on the TF.

Re: 3.0 KZTE 4x4 difflock only in LR4x4

It must be some sort of interlock, maybe via the transfer case. The locker is on in LR4x4. If I switch to HR4x4 then the light start to flash. It also flash when in Hr4x2 and HR4x4, When selecting LR4x4, the diff lock switches on..

I recently bought a second hand KZTE 4x4. I found that the difflock only works when in LR 4x4. Is this correct?
