Forum: 

hi guys, ive had it up to the eyes with the f300/feroza/sportrak motor now and it HAS to go. its just cack, even while it was running tidy and not knocking its brains out, it wouldnt pull a greasy man out of bed!!!!

Someone somewhere must have done it, or ar least tried it!
ANY input from you guys really appreciated, im on the edge!!

Will Suzuki Vitara wheels fit a 1988 F75 Fourtrak

Forum: 

Does anyone know whether a set of Suzuki Vitara alloy or steel wheels will fit a Daihatsu F75 Fourtrak. I have a problem that my new set of tyres will just not seal on the original rims when tubeless Sad so I would like to find another set of rims, as I don't really want to have to fit inner tubes.

Any help gratefully appreciated.

Thanks james.

Ahh Holidays.

Forum: 

Sorry, but if anyone needs my advice over the next couple of weeks, Tough. Im off for about 2 and a bit weeks, up north to the gulf, and the lower part of the cape. Now I know this doesnt mean much to you guys, but its about 4-5000km depending on side trips. And I wont even leave the state, let alone the country. Best of all, the missus is staying home, Lol. I have my youngest daughter coming along for the ride. Camping out, a fair bit of dirt road, some 4wding, fishing, drinking. Chances are I may get online once or twice if I am lucky.

Suspension!!!!!!

Forum: 

Has anyone tried modifying their leaf springs? I've just taken 2 leaves out of the rear, and the ride quality is fantastic. Articulation is improved too. Mind you My truck (F70) is spoa'd and never carries heavy loads.

Anybody got any wisdom in this area??
