I've been rooting around this wonderful site for a few years now, picking up words of wisdom as I go
Thought it time to do a little Ride thread of my own.
I have a 1996 SWB Y60 4.2 n/a oil burnerwell at least it was when I first had it .
As I bought it :
First job on my list was to get those ticky wee tyres off . I had some 33s on my old Terrano so put them on straight away. Better but not enough diff clearance yet , so I got some Simex 35 x 10.5 x 16s sorted. They're fitted on Toyota rally spec alloys
At this stage I'd just done 2" body lift and that really wasn't man enough for offroad clearance for the 35s
So I got a set of Pedders +2" springs and shocks . Pretty much anything else was over my budget as over here in Wales Aus stuff is bonkers money :/
That gave me a bit more flex and plenty of room for the 35s now
And immediately put into action
Once I had that lot sorted I was amazed at how good this beast is offroad . A rare beast over here and so great to wind up the landies with it
Next things on my list are the things that seem to perplex you southerners somewhat
Namely, manual brake bias control and internal snorkel
