Hi from Durban

Post by RobT »

Hi,

I'm Rob from Durban, this is my first Toyota and also first 4x4. Had it for a month now and loving it.

It is a 2004 Legend 35 4x4 3.0 KZ-TE which so far has been great.

I still need to:
1) Fix a funny kluck sound from the from left wheel when turning at full lock.
2) Fit an OME suspension upgrade.

Thanks for a great forum that played a big part of my decision of which vehicle to buy.

Cheers,

Rob

Hi Rob and welcome! :thumbup: :thumbup: Of course Niel would praise the KZTE
KZ, good choice :thumbup:
... he owns one (we think ... since no-one has seen it on a trail for quite some time, I believe :lol: :lol: ).
Enough of that, .... Toyota, good choice! :D: .... and with a bit of luck, the "funky clunk" might just go away with the OME upgrade. :winkx:
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

Welcome Rob. That funny clunk noise is probably some Landy part that got stuck on the Hilux when you went of road. :twisted: :twisted:

Hi Rob, welcome to the forum... the cluck noise is probably the Birfield CV, which when worn out, will 'cluck' at full steering lock...
