    Kzj 78 HVAC question

    Hi friends! Quick question. My heater only throws heat if it's all the way to the right, I move it one down and it's cold air. My heater blows the four different setting speeds. But only throws heat when it's hard right. Is this normal? If not, suggestions for rectifying? It's been this way...

    Back in my kzj78, need new shocks.

    Hey everyone, I had to park my truck for a while due to cost of living and changing careers. But I just picked it back up and drove it back home from my parents. Really missed that truck.

    Replacement a343f suggestions

    Hi guys. So. On my 1995 KZJ78 I recently replaced my transmission and transfer case with a newer donor a343f and split transfer case. Turns out these ones are a dud! I did a full flush from the cooler hose and the colour of the transmission oil was a beautiful copper metallic flake paint. So I...

    What did I break in my driveline, KZJ78

    Hi friends, Well, here's the story. I was out wheeling all day on Sunday. Lots of snow, dirt and wet roads. I drove home in 4x4 and then this morning I hopped in the truck and started to drive to work in 4x4 on dry roads. As I was backing out and turning there was a very loud bang from...

    Death wobble, KZJ78

    Hi gang, So I just put my 33x10x15 k KO2's back on my rig. I've had them balanced three times now and I still have a death wobble starting at 70km/h.

    circulating heater 1kz-te

    Hey gang, My lower rad hose heater has given up the ghost. From my research it seems that a lower rad hose heater is inefficient for the 1kz-te motors anyway because of the lower rad hose having the t-stat on it. I am looking at a circulating heater. I have been looking at a zerostart. Am I...
