We had a fantastic day trip to Hamiltons 4x4 in the Lowveld this past weekend, I must say I had a very familiar experience as I got stuck on a river obstacle and all my mates with 4x4's were on the opposite side of the river, needless to say I was able to get myself out but it was a scary couple of ...

How I wish I had that power under my Hilux bonnet....

Have a look at the propshaft and center carrier bearing of the propshaft, other than that could be a engine mounting.

Hi Mervyn, Not sure if this will help, I am sure the Prado and Hilux of the same year model has more or less the same set up. I purchased a my Hilux with the same issue, only 2 keys, a grey and black key (Grey being the master key) I could only access via the drivers door barrel with the key, this u...

Hi Louis, Some advise, don't just accept price's given to overhaul that gearbox, they are not that expensive to overhaul, one must shop around, I have just helped a friend with his SFA's gearbox, cost him R3800 in parts including input and cluster shaft (new). Overhauled my SFA's gearbox a year ago,...

Hi Dawie, As jy n Garmin koop kry jy binne daai eerste jaar n "free" map upgrade. Jy moet jou Garmin op Garmap registreer en die map aflaai, maak seker jou garmin is opgekopel en volg die instruksies. Jy moet ook op Garmin gaan en die "software" opgradeer, kyk heel onder op die b...

Matthieu,
Do you not have electricity at all? (Eskom or municipal)

Hi again, apologies for the delay. We experienced this on a friends Hilux so we started with the basics and replaced a couple of things that were worn or damaged due to age and that could have an affect on the brakes. We remove the wheel speed sensors and found the right hand side one full of CV boo...

CraigC

Apologies, I did not follow the previous thread Bruce, but just a quick question? have you done a brake fluid service on the vehicle previously?, complete change of brake fluid.

CraigC

Ja nee, jou bakkie lyk stunning Jaco. Ek's self besig om daai 1UZ in my Hilux te bou, kan nie wag om daai pedaal te trap. Ek het laas week by 4x4 Mega World hier in Nelspruit gaan draai om uittevind oor replacement bumpers. ARB maak nog die bullbar, vat so 6 - 8 weke en is R14995.00, nogals duur. Ek...

Hello Andries. Sorry to change the subject a bit. Did you perhaps take photo's of your conversion, especially the engine mouting mod. How does one go about the change. What brackets and mountings did you use. My conversion starts in 2weeks time so I'm doing my homework. Thanks for the tip on the the...

Hi Dawie, Soos jy kan sien is ek self redelik besig met my Hilux..... met die verandering van gas moet ons nou die R134A gas gebruik. Ek gaan ook 2 pype laat maak met die "nuwe" connectors op, sover ek weet pas die nuwe stelsel (aircon machine) se connectors nie op ons "ouer" mod...

Now I wish I followed my gut feeling and went with the V8 conversion. Jaco it looks great, keep up the enthusiam and neat work. I just completed my 3.0 KZ conversion and it takes a lot of will power to keep going, especially with the teething problems.
