I have classic III’s on my HZJ77. Iirc the bs was 3 5/8 and they are polished. Since they are 16’s and my stock rim was 15’s I’ve gained clearance.

I used to have the same issue. It continued to get worse, much worse, embarrassingly worse. I had the IP rebuilt by Fox Jon and the issue went away.

When I daily drove my HZJ77 to work and it was still NA there was a four door hilux in the area that did the same route. There’s a hill to get to town. It was all I could do to reach the speed limit of 90kmph but he couldn’t break 60kmph. They are slow as in slower than a 1HZ. A 1HDT will leave...

Dan Martz is on here and goes by “crawlin cruiser”

You have a factory converter for your stereo located behind the glove box. I removed the stock unit and replaced it with something more modern with Bluetooth and USB hook ups. Been running it for years and never skips a beat.

Any Toyota diesel engine code ending in an “E” has an electronically controlled injector pump. 1HD-FT is fully mechanical while 1HDT-FTE is electronically controlled. Modern diesels are commonrail design running significantly higher fuel pressures and therefore have higher tolerances. Fuel...

The HJ61 is a brilliant platform. I DD mine and found it comfy on highways and off road. A bit big off road at times however but tons of cabin space for a family. The turbo really helps when you’re fully loaded with gear and people. I rolled mine end over end and totalled it. For being in an...

Double cab didn’t come around until 04. 03 got the stronger transmissions. Non vvti engines can be supercharged. VVTI began 04/05. Pre 03 are cheap, you have a lofty budget that’ll get you far. 05/06 double cabs on the other hand...

FWIW an overhand knot decreases strength by 35-40%. If there’s a knot in the line then that is where it’ll fail every time. Also of note if you rub a sharpie all over the middle of the line as a marker your strap will also likely snap there also. There’s a lot of chemicals in a sharpie that...

Also this if not going the LED route. A lot of machinery parts dealers sell them too as a lot of excavators and dozers are 24v. 4wheel Auto Parts

Toyota red

Running 255/85/16 and I certainly feel the load. My Next set will be 235/85/16. If getting new rims I honestly wouldn’t bother with a 15” and would certainly make the upgrade to a 16”

I’ve got a period correct Toyota double din radio/CD/tape player I removed from my HZJ77. Also have a 24V Toyota original radio from a BJ41.

know someone who might be interested in the power steering pump. Got a rad support by chance?
