Hi,
Anyone know a part number for the oil filter for 1HDT (1990 HDJ81)?
I have a box of Drive Joy filters from Japan at home but that is not helping me as I am not there now. :bang:
:doh:
I was hoping there was a source locally or a North American made equivalent filter. Help!
Any ideas...
Hey,
Just read this post. Very cool. Stupid question.... :doh:
Anyone know if the fuel tank in the RHD, HDJ81 is the same as the North American 80 series trucks? I have a 1990 HDJ81 and am wondering if I could replace the stock fuel tank with the larger one from Brown Davis?
Is it just as...
Welcome got_mud!! Always nice to see another BC RHD... I was cruising PoCo yesterday in the spectacular sunny weather, in my 1990 HDJ81... too bad it went back to the typical BC fall day today... liquid sunshine! :D
Post some pictures of your new toy.
Cheers!

jasonmt,
Thanks a lot for all the info. ;)
I ordered the new style 08/92-97 rotors (SLEE),calipers (New Toyota),pads for the front and rear. I ordered the slee axle to caliper brake kit as well. I ordered the newer style backing plates for the front and rear. I am just waiting for a phone...
Hi JasonMT,
Dana 60 style outers on the FF.
I had Brian ship the axle to Sumas WA, Sumas Mini Storage. I drove across the border, picked it up and paid the taxes, saved the brokerage fees. If I recall correctly, it was about $400 to ship.
Cheers!
Rob
The new rear axle:
Diamond Axle
64" wide
True Hi9 center
35 Spline FF
ARB
SSBC discs/rotors
SSBC mechanical brake calipers for E-brake (pls excuse the chrome bling... it was the only finish it came in... :bang:)
Changes to the rear axle setup will include:
A new drive shaft - Tom Woods or...
Thanks.
So I can buy the later (08/92-97) rotors/calipers/backing plates and 100 series pads for the front and i am good to go.... if I decide to go that way.
On the rear: I am running 17" wheels so going to the newer and larger rotors wouldn't be an issue as far as fitting, as I have no...
Jasonmt,
Thanks!
Stupid question. I am assuming the bigger brakes on the later models are better. Has anyone else upgraded their early JDM brakes? Can i just switch rotors/calipers/pads.... everything, the whole brake setup, to the newer style to get the bigger brakes and lose the early JDM...
Hi,
I recently bought a 1990 HDJ81. My rotors and pads need to be replaced. Anyone running the DBA 4000 series rotors and pads on an early (1990) HDJ81? MAF shows a part kit: 4000-FZJ80KITXSC or 4000-FZJ80KITXS but lists 08/92-97 as the models... I assume this is directed at the US destined...
My BJ70 is triangulated 4 link front and rear.
I had a previous cruiser (late 90's) with Y shaped radius arms (Ford Bronco spring and shock brackets)...good on road manners... suspension articulation sucked, as there was binding at the joints (pin and bushings).

Arty,
I live close to you. If you are still having problems... let me know and I can meet you somewhere. I had problems with my backseat release too. Now that you have the seat free from the floor... try flipping it forward toward the front seat with the strap pulled out and put some body...
Daily Driver. Don't own a trailer. Have around 60,000km on this setup (haven't replaced a rod end yet). I have driven it back and forth to work for the last 4 years, everyday. Also have taken lots of long trips where it sees multiply-day legs of highway driving before it ever sees any gravel...
