A mate dropped around today to show off the table top 70.It is 1985 with 330000 k's and running 35" tryes,he boasted it does 130k/hr . In the last 12 mths he has broken 4cv's ,2 axles and 1 or 2 diffs.What do you think its life span is? I cry every time I see what he does.
 
got pics, especailly of the trayback?
i would say the 2H isn't long for this world...
 
i am about to build a tray back so a couple different dsigns would be nice. different tool bax ideas, mounting points, floor ideas, head ache racks.
thanks for ht eoffer.
cheers

Wow, I guess properly done, even the 2H can make heaps of power, huh? I bet driving style plays a big role in his breakages.

Heaps of power? Ha ha ha ha!!! That's a good one Dave! A 2H feels like the 3L in my Hilux.

But seriously, I don't think so.

agree 2H and 3L engines are not designet to give a lots of power or torque .. has designed to do the work, do fine, and the most important thing ..

Do always .. !

Hi Drexx, want to tell us if you think the 3 liter will last as long as the 4 liter with out a rebuild. Don't think so. But I agree about its performance and its quieter also.cheers mate.
 
2h is good for about 300,000 km before the rings start to eat into the cylinder walls.
i have seen a few that have 500,000 on them, one is a one owner truck with no rebuild but then he really maintains his rig...
cheers

That's why I was impressed the guy was breaking axles and diffs. Of course you remember I had a 2H powered vehicle? I know what a 2H feels like :)

Yup! I remember your Troopie having some issues with the climb in that hill in 880S near your home. :) 45mph was it, or 35mph? The 2H is one tough MF like my 3L (2.8liter naturally-aspirated diesel engine) in the Hilux, I totally agree, as I see how they treat both of them here in the Philippines --like it's prolly one of those motors that will still run after a nuclear explosion... but it we all agree it's not the fastest motor out anywhere.
 
130k/hr? my hj45 wit a H motor (no 2) non-turbo has seen 150 k's an hour on 33's, with a troopy's weight. it should last fine.

a friend of mine has a turbo intercooled 1hz in his 75 and spends his weekends outracing 350 chev powered vehicles
 
I thought that the point here is, toyota engines do the work .. ! in my case, I have my TLC with the 2H engine from 6 years ago, and in the last 2 years doing the work of V8 with all other Club team 4x4 ( most CJ with V8 convesions )
