    Headlight upgrade 2008 to 2013 with HID & DRL

    I have not. I just aligned my lights at medium range and forgot about it. I rarely carry a heavy load that affects my light pattern.

    VDJ200 Tundra IFS Swap

    VDJ200 Tundra IFS Swap

    Hi All I am considering doing the IFS swap on my Diesel 200. I am concerned with the front spring rate # and front shock valving. The reason for this is that the 3UR 5.7 gas engine weighs around 485 lbs. while the 1VD 4.5 diesel weighs in a whopping 822 lbs. Current Setup Stock IFS Front -...

    Headlight upgrade 2008 to 2013 with HID & DRL

    I have lived with mine in the fixed position with no adjustment. They are aimed mid-long and my fog lights fill the short gap.

    Do I need camber correction UCA´s?

    I have no idea since I bought already lifted. But reason would tell me more than 2" since I noticed recently that the previous owner used OME 2703 front coils which are rated for bullbar + winch. ( other thread on coils ) I'm going to change those coils for softer ones so I might wait and see...

    Do I need camber correction UCA´s?

    Thanks for the info! The first line of the print out shows the caster @ -0.2º per side. Will keep an eye on the body mount . I'll chop it if necessary. Road manners are a priority, specially in my country with mediocre roads.

    Do I need camber correction UCA´s?

    Hi guys Fitted some 305/55 r20 Falken Wildpeak AT3W´s some days ago. Lift is OME 2" front. The truck needs new UCA to get caster back into spec. Question is will I need to correct camber too? Leaning towards the Nitro Gear UCA´s with 3º of additional caster or the SPC UCA´s with Camber...

    Westcott designs preload installed. Any ideas with problem?

    Thanks for clearing that up. That is very common here in Latin America. You see it in salvaged trucks where the chassis has been severly damaged. They have that pace horse sided walk. As others have pointed out, draining the KDSS is not necessary. KDSS is a completely mechanical system...

    OME 2703 Coil Spring Alternatives

    Thanks man, yeah the previous owner used those heavy load coils for whatever reason. I dont know. Do you know the height? might look into #600 Eibach´s. Close to 109N/mm Wondering if there is a more comfortable alternative out there. Other than 2702.

    Westcott designs preload installed. Any ideas with problem?

    What do yoe mean by dog leg? does the stance exhibit a lean towards one side or do the rear tires stick out more on one side than the other? Usually a 3¨ lift will be enough to "pull" the axle out of line via the stock panhard. An adjustable panhard will address that. If KDSS has not been...

    OME 2703 Coil Spring Alternatives

    Hi All I am looking for a more comfortable front suspension setup. The rig currently has OME 2703 (703´s) coil springs with OME 91005 shocks. I run a stock bumper. No plans for bull bar or winch. Ride feels harsh in the front end. The rear has 2722 coil springs and 61029 shocks. Feels nice...

    Headlight upgrade 2008 to 2013 with HID & DRL

    could a simple stepper motor control board or driver with pulse generation drive it?

    Headlight upgrade 2008 to 2013 with HID & DRL

    Thanks for your reply, very helpful. It would then be safe to assume that the auto leveling module would be quite complex to retrofit into the vehicle.

    Headlight upgrade 2008 to 2013 with HID & DRL

    Hi all I am retrofitting 2013 headlamps on a 2010 VDJ-200. The lamps are the non US (ROW) bi xenons with the DRL (hi/lo) LED strips. Left 81185-60F30 Right 81145-60F30 Got everything to work and figured out how to power the DRL´s with a relay setup. What I cannot get to...

    VDJ-200 Oil Specification 1VD-FTV

    I believe I can get oil analysis locally. How do you take the sample, from the drain plug or through the dipstick?

    VDJ-200 Oil Specification 1VD-FTV

    Thanks, I went over to the Bobistheoilguy forum. Things get very "techy" over there ... Going to give Rotella T6 a shot in 5W40 Diesel as it exceeds the recommended API CF-4 When you say 5k you mean 5,000 miles or kilometers?

    VDJ-200 Oil Specification 1VD-FTV

    The options for full synthetic in the recommended weight by Toyota are limited in my country. I did find one by Repsol but have noticed an increased oil consumption over my previous oil which was conventional 15W-40. Repsol 50501 TDI 5W40 is the name. I am looking to extend the service...
