    Hey guys heres my stock 77 16r 4 speed colum shift ,choped 3 coils off front and fliped fat bottom leaf to top in rear. Pinched the 20s off my van but planing to bag on 14s when my dam hiace is finished and out of the shed. I will z the front and noch the back with a 4 link with a small body drop. I still have a linkaged 5 speed from my hiace so was thinking that with a 22r then i can keep it colum. Its slow noisy n bumpy and i love it.

    Cheers guys i cant wait to cut it up. No spacers needed 20s are +38 or +40 offset off my toyota hiace so bolt on ez good clearace aswell. I have only ever seen a couple of these in New Zealand and never a modded 1 so was great to find this site and see some chopped up old luxs. I have no chance at finding a tray here and have learned to like the flat deck so it may stay. i still have the og tail lights so may put them in a old b1600 mazda tray? has anyone here done that?You probly dont need to with all the trays i see there (sorry beds) .As for the left hand dash haha that would be diff here my mate has a mazda repu from usa left hand drive the boys love there rotors here.

    hey standardbyker88 u dudes must have some smooooth roads over there to be driving your ute around. In NZ if you wernt gettin pulled over by the cops you would be bouncing off the road haha sick ute though atlest you have big tires for a lil cushning. my front sits on the bumpstops and the 20s go were they want haha its a full time job driving these roads. "But arr lets keep that on the down low, shes not exactly street legal" haha

    ^ Just received the parts catalog from that company and looks like they can supply new beds (tray, wellside etc) plus tailgates, lights grills etc for your model Hilux

    Leave your email and I can flick it through to you if you like
