<< < (2/4) > >>

MONSTERED:
not all of it i jus build on what i bought.

UDTrev:
How about a snorkel ?

Or for a better power supply for them big feet a V8 :grin:

If you want it to look even taller may I suggest the sidesteps go ?

Good point- I bet the 2.4L feels a bit underpowered with those massive tyres. Do you know if a low ratio diff has been fitted to help the engine cope?

Join the Hilux Surf Forum......they'd be impressed with that truck!

MONSTERED:
I'm quite sure lower ratio diff's have been fitted.
A V8 would be great (good power and great sounding) but the people i've asked don't know where i can get the conversion kit from as i have been told they do them. and does anyone know how much work is involved? i'm a mechanic by trade and not afraid to do work myself.
i also thought about putting a 4.2 landcruiser lump in but don't know if engine and gear box will match up.
i can't really lose the side steps cos the girlfriend moans now that she can hardly get in so it would cause more ear ache than good to take them off.  if i could i would, their only mud catcher as it is.
