HICLONES !!!!!........NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Don't do it - not worth 1 cent. Not sure what Shane C is smoking up there in Northern NSW but I had the same set of Hiclones in my Feroza for around 1 month & couldn't pull them out quick enough
I must have tried every combination of position & number ( 1 ...

There are advantages / disadvantages to both.....

You won't get 2" of lift from Extended Shackles alone - the most you will get is around 30-40mm from 50mm (2") longer shackles - & this is the maximum longer shackle that you should attempt. Reason is that a Shackle Lift only lifts one end of the ...

Yeah, it was only a small dent Goes to show how tough the Tank was really - it did get a pretty good scrubbing at times & the only dent on it was a really solid hit from a submerged rock in a mud hole in the Watagans. It felt like I had ripped the hole rear of the Feroza off !! Got out & had a look ...

Haha - good to see a few bits from the Old Feroza still floating around.....

Good to see my Tanks gone to a good home.....hope you get many good years from it Andy Make sure you don't scratch that nice black paint job I put on it - that took me hours from memory !! ( although it wasn't quite flat ...

OK people, got a few bits I've got to get rid of....

4 x White 15x8 Sunraysia Rims with 5 stud pattern to suit Feroza / Zuk etc. 2 in original near new spec - 2 have had the centre flipped & rewelded to provide much increase in backspacing. Could be reflipped & rewelded ?? Cost - one case of ...

PS: like your wheels - look really sweet !!

Oops - it was Crowey's Rims I was admiring - must be getting past my bedtime

I wenrt with tough Dog fourways, The brand you just wrote off...

Ultimate were out of my price range by a long shot, Tough Dog were highly rocomended by a few places and they sat right in the price scale. Ill find out when they are on and let you know what happens.

G'Day Croz & all,

Tough ...

----- Damn, why did I say "that was it for me" ?? - I should've known David would wind me up

My exhaust isn't illegal, you should check up on some rules before making claims like that.

-----which rules are you refering to. Have you got a full report from the person that fitted your exhaust ...

Hey Croz & all,

Who'd you get your springs through ??

The reason the late model Wide Track Feroza's only had one leaf spring & an overload was that they kept removing springs model after model to try & improve the ride comfort - remember, their main competition was the Zuk Vitara until the ...

Kell, also remember that it is illegal to tape TV programs on your VCR,

Actually I think you'll find that isn't illegal! Unless you want to sell it or air it in public.

Once again, heaven forbid people should know that some of these things are illegal before they spend big $$$ on tyres only to ...

I have had two sets of Yokohama Geolanders on my Rocky. Although they are a little more expensive than others, I find that the longevity of them and also handling of the tyre is excellent. On average I get about 90,000km out of a tyre, though I regularly rotate and align my truck. The tread pattern ...

Kell, also remember that it is illegal to tape TV programs on your VCR, & don't even think about downloading pirate mp3's or using unlicenced software......
Also I don't ever want to catch you crossing the road if the green "walk" light isn't on......that's illegal ;-)

Go ahead & keep the 235's ...

Good Luck finding a mini-spool that will fit !! If they don't make Lockers then there is no chance they will do a Spool or mini-spool off the shelf.
By Welding up the Diff Centre you are making a Mini-Spool.

Go to a Diff Specialist - DON'T try & weld it without dis-assembling the Diff if you ...

Standard is 4.111 right?
I heard there might be a 4.5 too right?

Dont shoot me even though i do have a Hilux but i'm cluless on this truck.

Lots of different ratios were used over the years -

4.111 was very rare in Aussie Hilux's ( not sure it was used ) - very common in 3.0 TD Auto Surfs ...

Extractors won't alter RPM at all - with the same engine, only a gearing change or tyre size change will affect RPMs at a certain speed.

Gearbox is expensive & unlikely -
Diff Ring & Pinions are just as unlikely - you have 5.29:1's at the moment. 5.57:1's are available from the Auto Feroza but ...

Hi Guys,

Went and looked at a '94 model Roza out woop woop from Melourne yesterday... Very impressed with it.. 219K's, and imacualte inside and out.. Has bullbar, UHF, etc..

The owner has ditched the stock airbox set up and fitted a K&N Airpod.. Now obvious a problem if i decided to go swimming ...

David. I fitted a set of Hurricane extractors with 2" exhaust and a Lukey sports muffler and I have to say the performance increase wasn't all that noticable except up around and over 5000RPM. Had heaps more torque down low with the standard system.

Interesting Leon. I've got the Hurricanes too ...

[quote="Le0n"]IF I were to get another Roza it would have to be an early model narrow track. Sure the later wide tracks look the part bur going on personal experiance and reading these posts I just have to say the earlier models are a better truck and just have to be better in the bush.

Well plumbing isnt done yet...but im keeping it fairly simple..just some clamps and flexy pipe as short as i can go straight into standard filter box...am having dramas with the nice rubber edging I put around the hole drilled...it keeps peeling off grrr have tried some glue some bloke recommended ...

Don't have much specific info for you - this is just from my crappy memory

WideTrack & Narrow Track definitely different. Wide Track is 70mm Wide, Narrow track is 60mm ( I think ) - pretty sure they are same width as Zuk Sierra & Hilux. Both are defintely 16mm internal diameter.

The actual ...

DEFINITELY get the Flex Joint between the Extractors & Cat - doesn't matter how well made the Extractors are - it will just take out the Cat instead & this is just as pricey as the Extractors Mine did - seen it happen on others as well. The amount the Feroza engine torques demands a flex point in ...

A)
I would stick to around 3.5" of lift. Around 2" of Spring Lift & around 1.5" of Extended Shackle lift ( 2" longer Shackles ) is pretty much ideal. You won't be able to match the front Torsion Bar lift anyway, so any higher than 3.5" is useless.

B)
Personally I wouldn't cut the bumpstops ...

has annyone have some experience with the rancho rs 5000 shocks
they seem te be the only option here for a lifted feroza
some help would be nice

Only problem would be the valving - they are supposed to be the equivilent of the Rancho 9000's on the middle setting & a number of people have ...

G'Day Jason,

As far as I know, all Feroza's already have the job done for you - at least all the ones ( including mine ) had. The Front Diff & Gearbox / Tx Case have the breathers extended to under the bonnet - I think the Front Diff is the black tube at the rear of the passenger side near the ...

Damn petrol engines.. I should trade it in and get a diesel

thats right and it should also be a toyota.....

A Toyota Diesel with a Turbo !! mated to an Auto Box as well

Sounds good but not auto...

Believe me people - once you go Auto in a 4wd - you NEVER go back
I used to think the same ...

[It's all just a matter of finding the original supplier and cutting out the middle guy.
[/quote]

Sometimes that works....sometimes not. Often the price the original supplier sells it to the public for is actually more expensive than the price they sell it to their distributers for + the ...

G'Day David,

I don't think of it as disagree......more like "reach the same destination by different roads" Be pretty boring around here if we all did agree though wouldn't it

Sorry to hear you had hassles with them....without making excuses for them I think they did have trouble keeping up ...

Please note: I have connection with MRT other than being a satisfied customer - feel free to buy with confidence from them.

Not to interfere but did you mean you DON'T have connection...?

Just sounds like thats what you mean to say... but maybe I'm seeing things...

Umm.....yeah, that's what ...
