Welkom Gerrit!

Blitzkrieg

I need some info on this please, my Hilux rebuild is 80% complete, time for rims & tires. I want to fit either the 16 inch fortuner rims or the 17 inch new type rims on my SFA. Do any of you know if they will fit? If not, what do I need to change to make them fit? I will fit 285/70 or 75's tires...

Blitzkrieg

Die forum maak Angola baie meer worth while.
My Hilux en ek is baie dankbaar.

Blitzkrieg

Klein babbie (grandpa gedrink) in Angola......Eks so bly dis Vrydag!!

Blitzkrieg

Ek moes ook 2 keer tel om 40 te kry.

Blitzkrieg

Hi Johan,
That sounds like a gearbox to me, I had the same problem before.
Have a look at the gearbox oil level and the oil viscosity. If the oil viscosity is too low you may have this type of noise when changing gears at low speeds.

Blitzkrieg

Dit klink goed. Hier is dit altyd warm! Mei maand is n baie goeie idee. Bring net asb diesel/petrol filters saam vir die pad. Die paaie is al baie beter as julle stres oor spaar wiele.

Blitzkrieg

Hi Andre, dit klink soos 'n lekke trip.
Ek is hier in Luanda gevestig saam 'n hele paar Suid Afrikaners.
Hierdie is my Angola sel nommer : +244 9211 99934. Gee my 'n lui as julle kom kuier en enige probleme optel.

Sterkte.
Jaco.

Hi Craig, I'm doing my first conversion myself......school fees!! Let me give you some points to remember. 1. Hand brake has to go, I'm going to fit the new Hilux hand brake type (in the middle of the seats on the floor). 2. I had mountings fabricated to give the engine a little more lift. 3. The st...

Blitzkrieg

Blitzkrieg het sy sticker ook gekry so paar dae terug!
Ek sal nog moet kry vir die ander Hilux, my Colt en die vrou se POLO!! Sy gaan flip!

Blitzkrieg

while Landy drivers watched in

Blitzkrieg

Dankie Craig, dit klink uitstekend!
Kan jy dalk 'n foto van die bullbar aan die hande kry? Ek het vriende wat kan powder coat.
Ek stel baie beslis belang.

Blitzkrieg

Baie dankie manne, dit gaan maar stadig sover met Angola wat 'n helse rol speel met tyd saam. Ons gaan liewer nie eers praat oor geld nie, :oops: my vrou mag dalk net uitvind dan is die hel los. Ek laat haar mooi verstaan dat Toyota parte mos baie goedkoop is (veral as jy dit by die agente koop) en ...

Blitzkrieg

that any other vehicle will

Blitzkrieg

Weet iemand of ARB bull bars maak vir die SFA's?
Onca kan my help, maar ek gaan lank wag en die prys is ook maar hoog. Ander opsie is om een te self te bou.

Blitzkrieg

Ek moes hierdie een net weer laai!!

Blitzkrieg

Ek was gou terug in SA en het bietjie tyd aan blitzkrieg spandeer.
Ek het hom gevat vir sy maiden voyage, eks glad nie spyt oor die V8 Lexus nie!
Daar le nog baie werk voor om die Hilux perfek te kry, vat dit stap vir stap.

Blitzkrieg

Jy kry 'n korter olie filter te koop. Vat jou ou een Midas toe en vra vir die korter wit filter.
My oue het ook nie gepas nie. Onthou net om jou hidroliese pomp op die enjin uit te skakel en 'n korter belt te koop.

Blitzkrieg

Welkom Leon, hoop jy geniet dit hier!

Blitzkrieg

Hi Riaan, ek het juis gister gestaan en kyk na ons Land Cruisers hier in Angola.
As jy na die LC sin kyk lyk dit baie veiliger, ek gaan so een maak pas op my SFA D/C.

Blitzkrieg

Nou praat jy Ali3n!!
Lexus V8- there is no replacement for displacement!

Blitzkrieg

Bring those Hiluxes for an adventure!! Please remember spare fuel filters.

Blitzkrieg

Welkom Jurie,
Mooi Hilux daai. Ek hou ook van daai wiele saam met die rooi Hilux.
Ek gebruik ook die manual wat ek van die net af gelaai het, nie veel verskille nie.

Plant gerus vir ons nog fotos!
Sterkte!

Blitzkrieg

Hi Neil, that looks like great fun.
I should get my team together to build on here in Angola, but I'm sure it will become a permanent residence for some Angolans!

Blitzkrieg

Hi JJ, Die switch konekteer net 2 drade aan mekaar. Ek dink ook daar moet iewers anders 'n probleem wees met die bedrading. Toe jy die nuwe switch insit is als toe reg? Gaan daar 'n positive of negative na die switch toe? Al wat ek dink kan gebeur is (as daar 'n positive na die switch toe gaan) is d...

Blitzkrieg

Are you talking about the fuel lines in the engine compartment? Why not ceramic coat the manifold?
I am importing heat and sound insulation material from the US. When I tested it I will let you know, maybe you can use some to fix your problem?

Blitzkrieg

I am busy with my SFA rebuild with 1UZ.
I would take on your project in a heart beat, I love doing rebuilds and taking on a challenge.
That conversion will be amazing if you take your time and do it perfectly.

GO FOR IT!!

My next project will be the 100 series cruiser with 3uz.

Blitzkrieg

Die branches is klaar aan mekaar. Gaan vandag JHB toe vir ceramic coating.
Kan nie wag om Blitzkrieg te start en te hoor hoe hy klink nie!

Ek sal fotos stuur van die hele sisteem sodra als klaar is.

Blitzkrieg

Jong....eks lekker jaloers hoor!!

Eks 'n groot Red Heart man!!

Blitzkrieg

Eks ook maar 'n Lexus V8 man. Eks nog besig met my conversion. Exhaust sisteem amper klaar.
Ek sal jou laat weet hoe die hele conversion vaar sodra ek met hom gery het. My Hilux word ook gebou om te toer.
Dis baie werk, soek parte en geduld.

Blitzkrieg

Hi Gideon,
Waar in Moz is julle en wat doen julle daar?
Ek werk in Angola vir Caterpillar. Ekt net gewonder of julle nie n paar ou Land Cruisers daar het nie?

Blitzkrieg

What a great feeling hey??!!
Enjoy it!

Blitzkrieg

Welkom Gideon!
Lekker om nog Afrika members te sien. Eks in Angola.
Geniet!

Blitzkrieg

I also suspect wheel bearings, then it should make that sound even in 2x4.
If you decide to replace wheel bearings I suggeset Timken.
A quick check to do is lift up the front wheels and check end play.

Blitzkrieg

Gaan jy nog fotos met ons deel?
Watse enjin het jy in en watse ekstras het jy op?

Blitzkrieg

Welkom Hennie!
Dis mos nou hoe 'n Hilux moet lyk!

Blitzkrieg

I second the 657.

Blitzkrieg

Ek sal vanaand gaan kyk om die program aan die hande te kry...klink baie interesant.
Post asb fotos, Blitzkrieg is baie faal, ek dink daaran om two-tone te gaan.

Blitzkrieg

Hi Greg,
I have a Lexus V8 SFA. I fitted a switch that cuts power to the Spitronics. The engine will crank but won't start.
What engine is in your Hilux?

Blitzkrieg

Is the clicking sound only present in 4x4 engaged?

Blitzkrieg

Hi Ronnie, What is the issue with the R151F box? I am planning to fit the R151F to my Lexus V8 and it's VERY expensive! I would think that the R150F box ratios will be different. I will see if I can get the specs on both. We use 20 Land Cruisers in Angola (very harsh environment) with the R151F boxe...

Blitzkrieg

Sounds expensive and COMPLICATED.
Thanks for the links.

Blitzkrieg

Thanks Theunis,
Can I download photoshop or should I buy it?
I will try, I'm sure it takes some practice.

Blitzkrieg

Hi all, I have seen people modifying their cars in Speed & Sound magazines with 'photoshop' or some other program. I would like to know if somebody has done this before. I would like to put some logos and graphics on my Hilux before actually sticking them on. It should also be a fun program to p...

Blitzkrieg

Weet enige iemand waar ek 'n D4D se bonnet scoop kan kry?
Ek het ook d4d veiligheid gordels nodig.

Blitzkrieg

Blitzkrieg het arriveer by TNT Exhaust Middelburg!
Hy lyk nog rou sonder die bakwerk op, nog baie werk om te doen.
Nou kan ek nie meer wag om terug te kom SA toe nie!

Blitzkrieg

This is the only pic I have, sorry Julian.
Hopefully it's not a major failure.

Blitzkrieg

Hi Julian, I removed my SFA's hubs and found that the spring separated from the holding plate. If you decide to remove the hubs be carefull when removing the cotters (just behind the nuts and washers), a light tap with a hammer on the side of the hub should loosen them up. They are very expensive fr...

Blitzkrieg

Blitzkrieg gaan vandag vir pype!! TNT exhaust staan en wag vir hom. Die ceramic coating gaan 'n rukkie vat. Sal fotos laat neem en post. Ceramic coated branches. Twee 56mm pype tot in 1ste boks. Een 67 mm tot by 2de boks. Gaan die pyp onder die Hilux bere sodat almal nie kan sien daar is gepeuter ni...

Blitzkrieg

Ek dink my fotos gaan bietjie anders lyk!
Sjoe.

Blitzkrieg

Hi Celesti, welcome to wonderland. I'm sure you will enjoy it here.
I second the notion to post some pis of your wheels!

Have Fun,
Jaco.

Blitzkrieg

Ek stem saam met Allan. Myne gaan einde van die maand in TNT toe. Blitzkrieg kry ceramic coated braches, twee 50mm pype langs mekaar tot by 1ste boks. een 63mm tot by agterste boks. Ek het so link al begin en raad gevra, Allan het my 'n goeie reply gegee. Sodra myne op is sal ek dat die vrou fotos n...

Blitzkrieg

Hi Wimpie, as ek so na jou fotos kyk sal ek se jy moet beslis afskeid neem van die naam Scrappy.
Trompie sal ook 'n goeie naam wees.
1. Jou bakkie lyk jonger
2. Dit lyk of daai bakkie lekker stout kan wees op 'n grondpad
3. Met so bakkie sal jy vinnig 'n bende leier word!

Sterkte, dit lyk baie goed.

Blitzkrieg

Hi Stephen, I also baught a gearbox some time ago. The owner assured me that everything was in good condition. I decided to open the gearbox to check the bearings and gears. When I removed the front cover I found that the input shaft bearing collapsed and dropped into the gearbox! Lucky for me no ma...

Blitzkrieg

Welcome James!!
Do you have some pics to show off with yet??

Blitzkrieg

Hi Sharon, nice to see new members. Hope you enjoy and learn allot.
Are you looking for a single or double cab SFA?

Jaco.

Blitzkrieg

Hi Andries,eks besig met dieselfde conversion. Ek het SHELL Helix 15W40 in my Lexus.
Watse fan/fans gaan jy installeer? Voor of agter die radiator?

Moet se, jou engine bay lyk blerrie goed! Eks mal oor die mooi cover bo op die enjin, waar kry jy dit?

Sterkte!!
Jaco.

Blitzkrieg

I received a quote from them 2 weeks ago, they informed me that they have stock.
I did not ask about the callipers, only the upgraded discs.
I am currently in Angola, coming back January, that is the first upgrade I'm gonna do!!

Blitzkrieg

Hehe, dis wat ons die naweek in Angola doen met 'n Jimny!

Blitzkrieg

I hope so, my poor little orphan Hilux will feel much better.
