Hi mate!

Nice truck, Is it manual or auto

Stick a big roof rack on and there loads of places to put lights and Stuff

As your truck stands it looks good to go....( Quick

) as mentioned I'd route the exhaust out of harms way and avoid too deep water

Keep us posted

Thechin · 07-10-2010, 20:32

It's the manual box mated to the RB

An RB30 came out

any ideas on a good rack? (Saucy...)

I will probably route the exhaust as close to the underbody as possible. Just need a few more ideas

Thanks for all the advice!!

My rack came off a LWB semi-hi top Transit took about an hour to modify and fit

Ebay £51 bargain

You should have a rear LSD to make things a bit more interesting

Welcome to the forum. I have only joined myself recently, £10 is worth every penny.

Thechin · 07-10-2010, 20:45

I'm trying to step away from drifting, alot more EXPENSIVE lol.

Any ideas on a good rim/tire choice?

There are many threads on treds

Depends what your going to do with it

Your next £10 you spend on your membership will be one of the best

And it will save you that many times over

Thechin · 07-10-2010, 21:19

Thanks alot, definately want to lift it. any ideas?

The Patrolman · 07-10-2010, 21:34

I've seen a few leaf sprung HiLux's where they have mounted the Axels under the springs. Not sure what other changes have to be made re propshafts and panhard rods!
That should give you at least 6" of lift then you won't have to worry too much about your exhaust.

Thechin · 07-10-2010, 21:35

That's definately new to me. I will have to investigate that. A nice 6" lift would be perfect i think! Hmm.... Anyone on here have a guide?
