Hilux 4x4

 

My existing car is a 1997 Toyota Hilux Tamworth 2.4 litre petroleum with leaf springtimes all round. I have actually owned this for nearly a year, and have actually done a few little adjustments to make it extra enjoyable and also qualified. When I purchased it, the vehicle came with a back bar, aluminium bull bar, side actions, stereo, a great solution background and simply over 231,000 kilometres. This sounds like fairly a whole lot, however these cars and trucks are recognized to do well into the 400,000 kilometres if they are dealt with well as well as serviced on a regular basis. I spent a great deal of time planning what I wanted my auto to do and also as a result wound up with something which meets virtually each and every single need that I have for it landcruiser liftkit. The Tamworth Hilux is a scandal sheet and also it has a few more powerful parts as well as mug holders.

Adjustments today
My Hilux was rather basic when I bought it, and in order to make it a little extra comfy, qualified as well as cost-effective I have made a couple of modifications. Ever since I have actually altered the car by doing the following:

- Custom Rear Tyre Carrier
- 2 inch body lift
- 15x8 inch black ROH edges
- 33x12.5 inch Maxxis Bighorn Tyres
- Gas conversion
- Tough pet dog steering damper

As you can see the checklist of alterations is not excessively long, as well as the very best component concerning it is that they were very inexpensive to do. In the auto's current problem it can do almost anything that I throw at it, which indicates that I have a qualified, economical as well as enjoyable cars and truck without investing a big quantity of cash. In total I have actually spent under $13000. I haven't touched the suspension (although the front fallen leave springtimes are practically flat!) which indicates the ride isn't wonderful, however it's a compromise that I am greater than happy to live with currently.

Why I bought the Hilux
There were a number of reasons that made me select my Toyota Hilux. I was looking for a four wheel drive that was trusted, good looking, capable as well as solid, economical as well as preferably a Ute. This really restricted my choices to a Hilux, so I began the search for the best one. There was just one model that I was really trying to find also, that made it fairly tough to locate. I desired a gasoline Hilux without independent front suspension, that had actually been well cared for with little off-road work. My budget was set at in between $8,000 and also $15,000 relying on the alterations that had actually already been mounted.

The factor I sought a petrol Hilux is since the 2.8 litre diesels are exceptionally slow-moving without turbo's, as well as I intended to transform the auto to gas. I was also after the version Hilux with leaf springtimes all round, because they tend to be stronger and better off-road. Toughness is a major problem when doing major 4 wheel driving, particularly with larger tyres, which is why I was trying to buy a solid axle Hilux front and also rear. I wanted a Ute being somebody that usually requires to lug points to as well as from work, as well as it makes it easy to go snorkelling and also fishing off the coastline! Even if you splash something you can hose pipe it out, unlike the back of a normal automobile!
