Hi all.. I'm Darren, I've just bought a low milage 100 series 4.2td. Im going to be restoring it as such to make it my reliable work horse! Now it is in fairly good shape as in not much rust and everything seems to work, it had 100,000 miles on it. Ive ordered new hand brake shoes, and callipers for the rear as there pretty seized, ive put 2 new batteries on and a new set of genuine wheels as it had some stupid aftermarket ones on. The other bits i want to do are suspension components and steering as it seems very vauge! I've had plenty of old hilux's so know roughly what these will feel like but this wounders quite a bit.. other than the rubber suspension components looking fairly worn but no knocking what else could be wrong?
On my 2004 hilux i had a steering box adjuster so i could take some of the looseness out of the steering.. is that possible with the 100 series? I may also want some extra power as ill be towing 3.5ton fairly regularly..
Any advice much appreciated,
Many thanks,
Darren
