  • 3rd Gen mods info needed

    Hi folks,

    Just bought my first Toyota, which appears to be a 3rd Generation (always thought a Surf was a Surf!) so I would like to do some off road mods.

    So far I've fitted a stainless tow socket, which I can fit either tow ball mount or recovery D shackle and later on (pennies pending) a demountable winch.

    I've fitted 265/75/16 Enduro Runways which I love, tried loooads of AT's but these seem to tick the most boxes, I had these on my 90 which went everywhere!

    The info I need is about lifts (suspension/body) as I cant find a lot of info on this Generation of Surf
    Looking at the suspension set up, it looks very similar to the Vitara (could this be the roots of the hair dresser puns ) if so, great because I make body and suspension lift kits for the Vit guys in my off road club

    Rear diff, is it a LSD? if not can it be swapped out with either a LSD or locker from say a land cruiser?

    Roof rails. I have the channels in the roof, what bars fit? ones that go across or ones that run down the length? and where's the best place to find them?

    PS pic's of Surf in picture of month page.

    Cheers for your time!

      Heres some info on the mods as the JAPS have probably kept all the bits for themselves. ENJOY!

        Mmm I like that. Have you fitted longer springs/shocks.
        Any chance of a picture of your intercooler and pipe work

        Regards

          Bonnet guard, Light Pod, Wheel Spacers, Front Disks, 20% Stronger rear springs & Procomp ES9000 Rear Shocks is all ive done to mine for now.
          You can get Body & Suspension lifts for the 3rd gen.

            Hmm looks like one (intercooler) could be retro fitted.

            Cheers for the picture
