volstruis

Maybe a Dbl cab with rooftop tent?

volstruis

Cant you treat the holes with something to prevent rust like primer?

volstruis

Just for future reference I have driven mine a whole day on "empty" and there is no light coming on so I think there isnt one.

volstruis

Eish dankie tog ek lees die nou ek ry die trok nou al n dag op empty om te sien waar is die reserve liggie!

volstruis

The old girl severd me good from High School.

volstruis

Still original motor and haven't missed a service.
But I got it on 80 000km'sso before that I have no idea.

volstruis

Well the bonnet isnt closing properly thats the 1st thing. They also have to put on some bumpers I got for the scrapyard but its only going to be on till I finish my bumper replacement. Issue is my radiator is sticking out,as can be seen in the photos Im scared I get a stone or something while drivi...

volstruis

volstruis

Hi Bennie
Its all of a sudden but its getting worse.

volstruis

Eish! Bretton I will need to google all that to know what you mean.
Thx for the suggestion.

volstruis

No Jaws I also checked for it.
Maybe I got a oil thief!

volstruis

A bit off topic, but I am thinking of Galvanizing my rollbar / bumper replacement and rear bumper.
Then just paint them black afterwards.
Will this be better at preventing rust than powder coating?
Comments please?

volstruis

Hi Gents I need to pick your brains a bit on something other than a Hilux but still a Toyota. I have a 1.3 1998 Tazz, it has 212 000km on the clock. My problem is its starting to use oil and I mean use oil. In the last 5000km I had to fill the oil 6 times. I mean it was empty on oil NOTHING left thi...

volstruis

Thats why Im asking as well as the rust risk.

volstruis

Did you seal the holes you didnt use again?

volstruis

I need to replace the seat in my hilux as it is pretty worn. Now I want to replace the couch with 2 seats. I dont want those racing bucket seats as they look kitch in my eyes and belongs in a city golf. :twisted: :twisted: I want to see if I can get a pair of those legend shape leather seats and fit...

volstruis

Got her back today and boy does she sound great!!!
Total damage R3820 no gassflow done as the guy said its not worth it on a non turbo diesel.
Next up panel beaters she needs some nip tuck done. :D

volstruis

Any chance of a group discount if we all order together?

volstruis

Indeed.
kla gepraat!

volstruis

Klink GOED!

volstruis

Thx Theunis.
I only want to do the front as the back bumper will stay as is.
I want to add the bumper replacement to front as I like the look.

volstruis

Ek weet Andy ek gaan die naweek soek vir daai bracket by die scrapyards. Tans kan hy nie daar so ek maak hom met n ketting aan die rollbar vas

volstruis

I also spoke to someone in metro this weekend regarding this since I was also a bit unsure.
He said it must be covered and must not me linked to your brights/normal ligts it needs a separate switch.

volstruis

le tans in die garage aangesien die bakkie in is vir die head anders le hy op die bak

volstruis

Thx a mill Mark.

volstruis

Sal nie gebeur.
Die wa het baie sentimentele waarde.
Ekt niks teen petrol of diesel give credit where its due albei het hulle sterk punte en albei het swak punte.
DIESEL OU SEUN DIESEL!

Glo nie hulle gaan die fotos toe laat maar what the heck ietsie vir jou Bennie.

DAH TROOOOOOF IZ OUHT DERE!!!!

volstruis

2000 3000D?

Will be appreciated I can then see how they are fixed to the chassis.

volstruis

Thx Mark.
Need to get the old girl back into shape.
One of these days she should be walking the cat walk again. :)

volstruis

Well totalling everything so far except the cam shaft is R3500.
The guy couldn't get prices on a cam on saterday as the places were closed.
Tomorrow morning I should hear the full extent of the damage.

volstruis

Yup the bottom part where everything fits /bots on to the chassis.
The pipes and eye candy I already got planned.
Basicly as I see your signature ,take away the spots/ Pipes.

volstruis

When replacing my tyres and getting a spare wheel the other day to my disgust when looking to put the spare wheel in its place I found the whole bracket under the loadbin is missing. I have no idea how it should look and if it can be made. But everything that is man made can be remade I want to give...

Thx Mark.

Hi Gents Hope this is not frowned upon. Is there someone that has a bumper replacement on his 99-2001 Hilux willing to help a fellow out?

Issue met my 3000D is hy het 400 000km op die klok so dit is seker al tyd nog nooit voor dit probleme gegee.
