  • Gday all. Haven't posted for a while and had a few recent PM enquirys as to do I still have my truck. Yes I do and it's going great as usual. After three years and just 55,000 km I decided to change the wiper blades today and she'll get a 5000km oil change next weekend. All my mods are working perfect and I haven't a bad word to say. Definitely a bloody great investment in upgrading to the 150 diesel.

        Thanks. Been slowly chipping away at the build up. Have plans for a winch, better underbody protection plus larger tyres; moving forward.

            • I have a 1220, the previous owner installed it on top of the fuse box behind the battery. Works pretty well

              • I made up a bracket and mounted my redarc behind the air filter box.

                • I welded a plate on the front of my battery tray, between the battery and the headlight, and mounted my bcdc1240 there, nice and close to my little optima

                    • Love the truck Matt, I just joined the 150 series clan, upgrading from a 96 gxl after distroying the radiator and the main block and 19 years of service 330,000km on her also.

                      Will be attempting a few mods to the rig soon .

                      • Damo fitted my redarc yesterday at Samo's joint. Installed the unit next to the start battery and set it up with two 30amp CB's. Checked voltages this morning and had 12.14v on the starter and the yellow top AGM is floating at 13.30v.

                        • Happy days. Have just clocked 60k in 3.5 years. The best part of that is realizing the Toyota pirates can't pull 'warranty' crap on anymore and I can do all the servicing myself. As a diesel mechanic of 24 plus years it was killing me handing over my keys to some 20 year old apprentice at the dealer. I've always used genuine Toyota parts and filters, always changed my oil with Castrol Magnatec every 5000k and even supplied the Magnatec to the Pirates when they did a book service each 10k. Freedom is a nice thing.

                            If your a licenced mechanic of 24 years you could still do your own servicing and not void your warranty?

                              • 60,000 km service smashed. All fuel filters in the system sorted, everything greased and oil changed. K&N ckeaned and refitted. Buggered, but my wallet is a lot happier ��
