caibs Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 yeah mate, emmet from melville. on another note, when you fitted the hilux diff to madtoy, did you get an extra leaf put in or anything to stop axle tramp?? as soon as i get back to perth i've got a 4.3 hilux lsd waiting to go in, but I'm not sure if the weight of the diff will be enough to stop the tramp. let us know mate -caibs.

Rollin-Rolla Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 you could always custom make tramp bars, but that can be a little costly, since you require certain joins and so on. but still wouldnt cost that much. depends on your budget. caibs how much did your hilux diff cost? and what are you putting it into? if you got a full diff conversion done to fit to your car how much did that cost. I'm due to get my diff conversion done soon so just want to see some prices, although I'm thinking of going borgwarner rather than hilux.

madtoy308 Posted August 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 hey guys,i can answer that!! i used hilux diff out of 1978 hilux,later model diffs after that year are too wide..i paid $150 for mine from wreckers,but you need to change the centre before you do anything!!! mine came with 5.9s,now you can't change just the gears,you have to change the entire centre!! carrier changes with different gear sets!! i picked up a highace van centre with factory lsd and 4.11s for $90....also these diffs are 30 spline factory axles,there basicly cheap and bullitproof!!! you need to have spring hangers on the diff moved slightly,i had this done and a custom tailshaft made with new axle bearings done for $400......so about $650 all up depending on what you want.................tramp rods,go to wreckers and get lower rear control arms off 82-84ish rear wheel drive corolla,then get lower rear arm mounts off 1990 front wheel drive nissan pintara,these are bolted on via two bolts,they simply bolt under stock corolla leaf spring mounts..the front mount requires a fabricated triangular bracket..which you need to make yourself...all this basicly gives you tramp rods and only cost me $80 pair..............................PHOTOS!!! ive sent dan some pics of madtoy,hope he got them and can put them on here for me,so hassle dan..he he he... hope all this helps..cya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rollin-Rolla Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 yeh come down man, show alot of these hardened torana bogans what a real corolla can do. if you go there I'm most certain to actually show up for the day. makes me sick that they didnt include drags this time even tho they said they were going to try, and they were also going to have it over the weekend. i guess that will have to happen next year hopefully when the court case for AIR (Adelaide International Raceway) is resolved.

Dan Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 Perth to Adelaide is 2000 odd kays. It is possible to do it in 20 hours if you sit on 130 the whole way, but the f@$kin kangaroos are deadly after nightfall, particularly between Kalgoorlie and Norseman, and Eucla and.. shit, forgot the last towns name at the end of the Nulla. They're big heavy bastards that will write off your car if you hit them. Would be good to see that happen man (go to the gazzanats, not get your car written off) Dan.
