Toyota's Interchangable Oddities.... (TIO#)

[Youngy]

Hi all,

I am still wondering if anyone knows how easy it might be to get the 4 spot calipers off a 4WD Hilux (IFS one perhaps) and bolt them up to the front of the 2WD Hilux?

Cheers

Front driveshafts for GT-Four's are ¼" longer than the RAV's,

Interesting info.

ST16? (Canadian Celica GTS) frt axles in an AE101 are about the same amount too long.
(as fitted with a JDM 3SGE and tranny).
The Celica driveshafts fit the hubs just fine.

This approximately matches up with my crude attempts at measuring track on the Corolla and Celica that I checked.

I kept my frt end at stock height, and went a bit stiffer, so I never bothered with spacers.

A gen 2 3SGE will run tolerably well with a Gen 1 EFI setup (L-type Canada spec) as long as one isn't too worried about idle speed control. The gen 2 TVIS can be made to function as well, although the switchover point isn't as nice as could be...
It will also start at -30 Deg C without the cold start injector. Never did get around to hooking it up...
Edit: used the gen 2 injectors with the Gen 1 EFI,

KE30 Corolla Stuff

XT130 (RT132, etc) struts fit into the KE3x / 55 using the standard Corolla bearing plate and a TA22 spring. Saves having to cut and weld spring mounts.

HJ60 Landcruiser 4-piston calipers bolt straight onto the XT130 / RT132 struts

Mazda RX7 pads (series 6) fit straight into HJ60 calipers. (like the Skyline pads into Hilux calipers). The pads are a little bit smaller surface area then the Skyline pads, but on a Corolla or early Celica it will still have more then enough braking power. Plus there are HEAPS of different compound pads available for the RX7 (probably more then available for the Skyline).

All this is confirmed as its whats in my car. Discs are as per the XT130 / Hilux / Pug setup.

And 18RG's do fit into KE35's - but its a tight fit between the clear cleaners and the brake booster!!!

What clutch pedal will fit a MX62 Cressida?Someone in an earlier reply said ST 141 Corona will fit but with mods.Is this true?if so what mods r needed?and also what tailshaft can be used for manual conversion?RT 104 front springs fit RT40 front.18RG fits RT40 with little mods.RT81 front discs and stub axles fit RT40.Nearly all Toyota steering wheels will fit most Toyotas,usually only the indicator pins r different.
Cheers Brett.

MA61 power windows fit directly into an AE86.
The hardest part is mounting the driverside switch. You can either use your imagination or do as I did:
Cut the 2 wires leading to the motor on each door and extend these to the centre console and re connect them then wire it up from there and either somehow mount the switches there, or go and source some slimmer aftermarket ones.
Join all the earth wires together and run the single wire to the -ve terminal, and then either tap into the ignition or as I did and tap into the power for the window wipers for ignition switched power, and use an inline 10A fuse. and the rest just clicks into place!

Cheers.

RA28 struts into AE86 for a quick brake upgrade. No need for master cylinder upgrade.

Could also grab AE86 steering arms (best pick for match of acherman angle, otherwise corona XT130 ones fit) and chuck them in a KE70/AE71 to mount either AE86 struts or RA28 (and I'm sure there are many more that bolt straight in).

Corona XT130 Lower control arms into AE86/KE70/AE71 for around 2 degrees negative camber.

Kev.

RT 132 struts are slighly different to XT 130's.Why you may be saying?The reason is that the RT 132 strut insert is longer than the XT 130's not by much but enuff to stop you from putting the screw retainer on that holds the strut insert in.

Not that anyone cares, but ST184 / ST204 heater cores are not backward compatible with the ST162... as I found out today.

hi all,
XT130 struts and disc will bolt up early hilux 4 spot non vented disc.

[1GT04]

SORRY ITS MX73 STRUTS!!! With hilux 4 spots> and will bolt in to a R23 Celica.and more

[SIKPUPY]

G52 gearbox bolts up to a 1G bell housing

Late 90's turbo diesel hilux clutch kit (pressure plate. clutch plate + bearing) will bolt straight onto the 1G flywheel. Wont slip flat changing into 3rd either........

Hilux clutch slave cylinder off 4Y is on wrong side to 1G, although 1G slave cylinder will work of hilux clutch master cylinder.

3 core 6cyl Vl radiator is more than enough to keep a 1G cool.

landcruiser master cylinder fits onto most hilux 4x4's the Booster apparently will with a slight modification.

4Y engine mounts are just not strong enough for a 1GGZE

RA28 struts into AE86 for a quick brake upgrade. No need for master cylinder upgrade.

Does this mean the reverse is true? Coil overs for ra28's!

[andurils_sheath]

Its in the US but seems ok to me.

A few odd-bits when comparing 4WD Toyota stuff...

RAV's and GT-Four's share the same drivetrain setup, only front/rear drive bias is reversed.
Dropping in a 3S-GTE into a 3S-FE's engine bay will be a tad tight, but it will work. No mods necessary, mounts are the same.
Front driveshafts for GT-Four's are ¼" longer than the RAV's, but you can get a spacer to fix this. Rear driveshafts are identical. All use the same # of splines.

ST165 Rear driveshafts could be deemed a little different, the stubs on my 89 were held in by circlips from inside the diff. By circlips, I mean the same type (square profile) that is often used to hold a cv joint to a shaft. Snap ring pliers were required, with the diff cover removed.

The "period" TRD LSD required replacement of the axle stubs, presumably for the normal knock-in type stubs.

Thankfully I didn't break anything finding out...
