To the Guru's out there - will the front winch bracket and tow bar from the D4D fit the GD8. I have been told it will but would like some more feed back before I strip the front and try refit my winch behind the bumper again.

Neildbn

thank you

Get the part number from the dealer and count the pins in the plugs before you order it, be careful of the airbag etc. when fitting

Neildbn

Yes, if the hooter only does not work at a certain position. That was my problem

Hi All Please can someone give me some advice. It is my understanding that if you get a marine radio license from ICASA you can not use that marine radio on the beach. So if you have a "base station" in your vehicle it is illegal to talk to a boat at sea from your vehicle. Is this correct ...

Hi All I am thinking of putting in a set of Front Strut Spacers in to my Virgo - was thinking of a 50mm lift. Has any one had any bad experience after installing them and secondly would I need to lift the back as well? Any pictures of anyone who has done a 50mm lift would be great. Thanks in advance

Thanks think it will be worth to take it to a fitment center - lot of work and potential things to break

Hi All I have just had a bad batch of Diesel put in my car, I had to have the tank removed and the entire system cleaned. However after this unnecessary expense my Hilux had developed a "dead" spot at 2 000RPM. I have just changed the rule filter agin and think that the mechanic may have m...

So it seems that I ran out of diesel today despite the gauge reading just over 1/4 tank.

My Hilux Virgo has just done 110 000km so it is out of warrantee.

How easy is it to get the gauge control in the tank of a Virgo Hilux, do I need to remove the tank?

Any advise would be appreciated

Neildbn

I have the same set up and the range is always wrong dealers say it is aftermarket and I must live with it

Neildbn

they steel,

was thinking of running a stronger strip of angle behind to take most of the bangs and weight so the pipe is purely cosmetic

Hi All

I can get a set of "side steps / running boards " for a Hilux Legend for R 2 500 from the local scrap yard.

1. Is this the going price
2. Would they be strong enough to use as rock sliders

Thanks in advance

Hi All

I am about to upgrade my existing 2009 Hulux for the 2012 shape -

I need to move my long range tank to the new vehicle, is this a simple job or do I need to take it to a fitment center to do the job.

Does any one know of any instruction manual that is available?

Thanks in advance

Hi All

I am thinking about swoping my 4l petrol for a diesel, but I am not sure to go Auto or Manual.

What is the general feeling?

Why is there a demand for the manual and you can get the auto from existing stock?

it is a 2007 140 000 km so it is out of garentee, I find it hard to belive that with so many Lux's around Africa, it is a replacement part and can't be fixed
