Purchased a Surf Kzn 130 3.0td

[nick Wadsworth]

Purchased this beautiful beast over this weekend, totally happy with it. Got it at a great price and have been after one for a long time. Just going to need everyone's help here to keep it tip top and get some great advice. Does any one know of a good Toyota specialist in Bedfordshire? Also how bigger job is it to change driverside outer cv boot?

Thanks again nick

Hi Nick,
Tony N @ 4x4 toys (Basingstoke) search it, comes a highly recommended
(used him me self) Guru of everything Toyota Hilux Pickups n Surfs amongst others, failing that I'm in Herts just of junction 8 of the M1.
I did (both) mine a few years ago with help n given my mobility issues I allowed 4-6 hrs a side (over a weekend).
A more fit n able person may be quicker doing both sides in a day easily !!
Are you mechanically minded ? willing to learn or capable with tuition ? I may be able to help !!

16+ Years of Surfs n 9 years on Spotless it ain't but Faultless to a "T" is my KZN 130 Yota !!

Hi Diezel Weazel,


Thanks for your response,and thank you for your offer. I will google Tony and give him a call, if that doesn't pan out I will hold you to your offer 😉.I have bought the cv kit from Toyota, but it is in half and needs putting together with jubilee clips. Also tried to buy some coolant but Toyota in Bromham beds have said they only stock premixed red coolant or pink. After reading the forum other members have said they have bought neat red from dealers?

St185pinjo would love to add some photos but unfortunately can't seem to fathom out how. Any info/help would be great.
