GOLSETH Posted May 12, 2012 Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 Badass Hilux! They are so hard to find here in Japan! Quote Link to comment
greengoon Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Finally getting to the front disc swap. I have discs, calipers and spindles from a 78 Hilux. Put new upper and lower ball joints and new outer tie rod ends. Sorry, no fancy caliper paint. :D Can't wait to get the brakes bled and see how much better she handles. Quote Link to comment
Z chopper Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 could just about do an old trunk as the tool box in the bed. Quote Link to comment
greengoon Posted May 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Got the front disc swap done and man does it ever make a difference. About an inch of pedal is all it takes to stop. No directional pulling either. I think it widened the front track a little as well. Rubbing on the fender lip up driveways (hadn't happened before). Took it to an all makes car show this past weekend. people don't know what to think of it. :lol: 1 Quote Link to comment

BRE510 and I will parade it here in CA. I know it will be well loved and I'm sure I will see it on the internet and in person when I come down to JCCS.
