The final drive ratio of a 4spd and 5spd are pretty close, so going to 5spd won't really fix the situation as 4th gear is your overdrive gear....
Well I could be very wrong on this but I thought it's always quite difficult to acquire a pre-smog title if you don't already have one for the...
Personally I'd go for something like a Miller 211 --- expensive but it's a dual voltage welder, so you can plug it into 220v and do the structural...
Damn, only $150 for the pair!?!?!? That's like giving them away for free, based on what people in my area want for used seats with visible butt...
A bit far but there's a guy parting out a 73 in San Jose: http://www.toyotaminis.com/forum/threads/parting-out-my-73-hilux.23291/#post-225637...
Well do more homework and decide. I've looked into it personally for my 93 4wd truck and it's just not worth the $ to me to invest in the 22re,...
Neither. Most cost effective would be an engine swap. Look at the cost to build your 22re and compare the $ you'd spend to gain minimal...
Late to the party but I vote for parts made by Sankei "555" -- name is cast into the metal. Typically reboxed into other brands like Moog and...
interesting, looking forward to seeing the completed project. any issues with the steering box interference or all good since 3rz exhaust is on...
If you find a source for 3.42 diff or any other gearing higher than stock 4.10 I'd like to know, my truck screams at 65mph and I'd love lower RPMs...
I'd just buy the buckle/latch off eBay or a used parts site or from a salvage yard. I'm sure a forum member down near you wouldn't mind helping...
It's your truck you can build it however you like! Personally I would not go the 4x4 route with a Hilux only because they are becoming more...
If you still have the 18rc then most likely everything else is stock - at least I would assume this. If so then you would have the 4spd manual --...
Those are pretty cool. I'm slowly trying to work on mine with a low budget too. Haven't lowered it because I need smaller tires to clear the...
hmm...well that's a different setup than I thought you had...thanks
I might have one, I'll have to look and see what condition mine's in and whether or not it has the knobs still. It's off my 75, I replaced it...
Gettin' closer! I need to get me some of those braided brake lines, mine look brittle and old. Hey - I'm gonna be lowering my truck very soon...
I got nothing then. I guess just goober it up with silicone from the side you do have access from to seal it up. Wont look pretty obviously but...
Doesn't the cowl come off of the newer generation pickup trucks, so you can stick your hand inside the wiper cavity? I know on the previous body...
Flip your drop hitch or get one of those adjustable hitch setups. You could also likely use one of those "double hitch" adapters and use the top...
