What are you fixing/fitting?

[yoshie]

Pulling the whole interior out of a peugot 307. Engine is out, and the shell is bare, bar the interior.
Bracing next week, then a transmission tunnel, for a (As yet undecided) prop to a trans axle...make it rear wheel drive.

Hmm, what you up to pal. Track toy? Or tearing through the forest?

[Sylux]

Have you thought about sticking one in your Surf?

You know the answer to that But it'll be a while.

Your exhaust nuts, can you get a blow torch to them?

I always thought that would swell everything up and make it harder. I'll look into it, ta

LOL
You will probably have V8 power before I have 4WD

If you can concentrate the heat on the nut then the nut will "swell" and become a bit looser, a bit.

Then its just swinging on the nut to get it to move.

What about coke dribbled on the nut?

Isn't that what Charlie Sheen got caught doing??

Not to sure yet mate. It'd be nice to just get it done!

Not that anyone should condone drug use, but if you're gonna get caught cheating why not go the whole hog with strippers, porn stars and 'stimulants'
As they say "go hard or go home"

Since we have had the what you look like thread, how about what you are fixing or fitting or fiddling with......

I'm doing this http://www.hiluxsurf.co.uk/showthread.php?t=81450 and getting frustrated with it now!

Hi lift jack mounted using exhaust brackets and coupling nuts. Nice and cheap.

That's going to get filthy mounted there.

[Overland Tonka]

Yeah...not quite finished yet. You can get a neoprene sock/cover from Hi Lift for the stand/Buisness end, or the cheaper option bungee a waterproof bag over it.

Guess what option I will go for.

I'm still got to trim the thread and may junk one of the coupling nuts and add a normal one to raise it slightly.

Looks like I will be heading your way at last...hence sorting the truck. Will let you know when mate..

[BUSHWHACKER]

Well, all I have managed to get done today is a bit fat zero.
I know the VSV'S work.
I know the ADD works.
I know the 4wd ECU works.

And I know the transfer case motor works perfectly ..............on the bench, but buggered if I can get it to work on the truck.
It just jams up and refuses to turn.
Bloomin' thing.

Is there a healthy 12v reaching the motor when it's on the truck?

[Karma Supra]

This weekend I fitted my front Anti Roll bar, with poly bushes, and front drop links that had been lengthened by 1.5" for better compatibility with the lift.

I also swapped out the rear 1.5" spacers for some 20mm ones, and am now happy with the way the truck sits.. (rear Old Man Emu 3" lift, plus 20mm poly spacers, front height adjustable ToyTech "Boss" coilovers).

I then refitted the side steps..

Then I cleaned the truck as I had a date

Is there a healthy 12v reaching the motor when it's on the truck?

You know to be honest I can't remember checking the voltage this weekend.

I was going on the dash volt meter dropping and change in engine tone as the 4wd button was pushed and have just assumed that it was getting 12volts.

Assuming again I know, but the 4wd ECU powers the motor and the switching is down inside the ECU, and not through a separate relay.
So if the relays inside the ECU are getting lazy or the contact faces are all pitted then I may be getting a circuit but not enough current to push the motor ?

I have a battery I can slide under the truck with to see if it that can push it.
