    The o-rings on the heater core had gone, so i got them replaced, its now also got a decent stereo in it etc, which is nice... and i lubed up the windows etc, so its quite a bit nicer to blob around now.. with radio, windows, central locking etc its really quite pleasant.. if its turning circle was a bit smaller it would be nice

    Is the hilux a wishbone or strut set-up, and does it run rack and pinion?

    Hey Sean,

    there was a guy in WA who 1j'd his hilux a few years ago (I think his username was slylux) - now I believe it's been 2j'd with the 6-speed gearbox and big single. Traction was his enemy from memory!
    you know what I mean this electric stream
    and my tears in league with the
    wires and energy and my machine
    this is my beautiful dream
