hilux dual-cabby leif (no login)any resources available to track down this vehicle? i understand it's unavailable in north america, but can be found in africa and oceana. does anyone know more? from IP address 24.113.31.169 |
Hilux double cabby (no login)I've been driving the Hilux double cab for quite a few years in Africa. They first imported them from Japan in '87 and started producing them in South Africa in '88, by my understanding. I could be wrong about that. In '99, South Africa began producing what is known as the "Tacoma" in North America. They still call it the Hilux. They build the reg. cab and dual cabs there, but don't build the ext. cab, unless that has changed in the last couple of years. Currently in North America, all three models are available, which are called the Tacoma of course. They are new to NA, so they may be difficult to find. I live in Houston at the moment and they are fairly available here. I could get more specific about the differences to my knowledge if you'd like, but yes, look for the Tacoma dual-cab in North America. from IP address 65.65.180.216 |

96 Hilux Surf with the PRADO engineby (no login)I recently bought a 1996 Surf with the 1KZ-TE 3L intercooled turbo diesel engine. Quite a beast it is!! and I'm enjoying every minute of it. But It came without an owner manual and it has a navigation system that I can't even understand. it's located just beneath the rear view mirror.

92 4Runner cosmetics...by (no login)Hi all. I'm looking for the rear wing/rear air deflector which was standard equipment on the Sequoia edition 4Runner (94 & 95, I think). Unlike the metal or smoked plexi air deflector which was standard equipment, this was a body-coloured rear wing which extended rearward from the roofline and incorporated a 3rd brakelight. Now, my dealer says that such an item was most certainly aftermarket, but I can't find it for the life of me (Jaos doesn't offer it, neither does TRD or Performance Products). Does anyone know where I can find one? Also, I have seen some overseas 2nd Generation (90-95) 4Runners (Hilux Surfs?) equipped with a tail-light cluster which includes the backup lights (instead of the backups being located in the tailgate). I thought they might have been swapped with the tail-lights of the 4WD Toyota truck, but that's not the case. Does anyone know which market offered such a lighting configuration on the 4Runner/Surf? I am currently installing a rear tire/gear carrier which obscures almost the entire tailgate, so I need to relocate by reverse lights to the rear corners of my rig. Thanks! morgan@dowco.com from IP address 209.87.132.126 |

4 Runner overheatingby (no login)I have a 95 4 runner. It began to overheat, and I replaced the thermostat and water pump. It still overheats, and it has a weird symptom. Sometimes the AC works. When it works, the aux fan in front of the condensor turns on. Ok..it won't overheat. But sometimes the fan doesn't turn on. When this happens, the AC doesn't work and it overheats. Any ideas? Is there some type of sensor that runs this fan? from IP address 38.29.132.48 |
overheatingby (no login)the aux fan in the front has a temp sensor on it. this is what kicks it off to begin with. you may consider replacing this fan. flush your radiator too. it's part of your cooling system too. good luck from IP address 24.19.79.98 |

Sequia or Land Cruiser?by (no login)I have narrowed my choices down to these two. Can anybody tell me which one I should get and why? Thanks. PS. Does anybody know anything about the Saleen Explorer? (www.saleen.com) from IP address 152.163.204.214 |
sequia or land cruiserby kit (no login) sequia cost at mid 40 grand the land cruiser cost at around 70 grand depending on your local showroom "con artist". if you got the doe. i'd rather choose the land cruiser. it is proven around the world, including south pole(some research scientist used them.)and the 2000 paris-dakar rally(stock/non modified class.). from IP address 172.173.93.133 |
Choose the Landcruiserby Mike (no login)I pondered the very same issue around the time the Sequoia was announced, Toyota gave me marginal information. I drove both, many times. The price difference of a new vehicle was large. I chose a 1999 Landcruiser for the same price as a new Sequoia. It is a great truck, the best on the market. I will own this truck for over ten years. I made the right choice. from IP address 216.26.61.95 |
Sequoiaby (no login)I want to know what you look for in an SUV. If you want a good price and good expectations, go with a Sequoia. I was planning to get one but my budget is too short and I currently have a 2000 4Runner. All Toyota vehicles are great so the choice between Sequoia and Land Cruiser is yours. But note that you can save at $15,000 if you go with the Sequoia. And I meant the Limited Edition. from IP address 209.207.52.13 |
Sequia or Land Cruiserby (no login)If price is not an issue then go with the Land Cruiser (the best Suv on the planet). If money is any issue go with the Sequia, alot of people don't know that even though it is priced less than the Land Cruiser it actually is bigger. from IP address 67.234.16.116 |
Sequoia or Landcruiser REPLYby (no login)Your right! people think Land Cruiser is bigger just because it's expensive, but Sequoia is actually Toyota's biggest SUV that costs a lot less than a Land Cruiser. Land Cruiser, is mainly built for comfort and luxury which makes it the world but Sequoia may be a more practical way of owning a luxury SUV. I have a Sequoia SR5 with all the upgrades and I'm a very proud owner , but cannot afford a Landcruiser... from IP address 67.201.64.182 |

Hilux Surf 2L-T engineby (no login)I have a 1990 Surf Model in Australia. At about 80.000 km head gasket and turbo leaked and cracks in cylinder head. I got a low mileage replacement engine.

late entry--yes it can be doneby tony (no login)but it will be extremely expensive. i purchased the entire limited flares and cladding kit(along with countless clips, screws and other hardware) and it was in excess of $2,000 and thats not including the cost of having a body shop install the whole kit. in the meantime, i had bushwacker fender flares(flares only--not the cladding kit) installed. for a more professional look, i had the flares, running boards and bumpers painted toyota silver. bushwacker has a limited-look flare/cladding kit, but you will have to see if it has the look you are looking for. plus it will be a whole lot cheaper to have installed than the toyota limited cladding and flares. from IP address 209.239.215.248 |

Installing CSD fog/spots on 1998 4runner ltdby Mike (no login)I read with great interest the article under Products about installing the CSD fog/spots on a 1996 4runner. The install looks super clean. I purchased the CSD's and have a few questions about the installation. 1. What kind of brackets were used to install the lights. I see a hole in the bottom of the bumper, but it would leave the lights protruding too far, not like the flush installation in the photograph. 2. How much of the bumper valance was cut so the lights would fit? 3. What wire was tapped under the dash for the 12 volts to the power switch. I'd like to tap the parking lights but how do I find the right wire? Thanks in advance for your help. from IP address 209.170.132.12 |
