  1. both these links do full kits and i mean everything to the strict australian standards as need to be to get certain things legal here http://www.dellowconversions.com.au/ http://www.rodshop.com.au/
  2. The photos are of a 2H, a number of moons ago I knew of a dyna truck that had a h diesel that was held flat to the floor til it went bang and the engine that was put back in it was out of a landcruiser and it was not a bolt in due to the no holes issue and plates were made to make it fit in
  3. Just as an oddball The 18R had similar things and the standard 18r out of a celica corona hilux do not fit in the hiace van because of such issues, the engine mounts are not interchangeable as the hiace engine does not have the holes drilled or threaded to take the standard engine mounts and vice versa. the toyota cab overs use the same engines such as the 20r in the coaster bus and everything mounts on them differently and I would imagine that the V6 3VZ would be the same that the front wheel drive version out of the camry would not bolt in the pickup because of such things as power steering pump a/c engine mounts would all be in different positions and no threaded holes.
  4. so all the factory toyota dual rear wheel models "WT" of USA and canada RN55L-KRTEA3W1985/08-1988/08 | 22REC T1 STD MTM 4F RCB W HVY WT USA EFI IV http://toyotamarket.ru/us/671440/035/ RN55L-SRTEA3W1985/08-1988/08 | 22REC T1 STD ATM 4HC RCB HVY WT USA EFI IV http://toyotamarket.ru/us/671440/088/ RN75L-KRTEA3W1985/08-1988/08 | 22REC T1 STD MTM 4F RCB W HVY WT USA EFI IV http://toyotamarket.ru/us/671440/200/ RN75L-PDTEA3W1987/08-1988/08 | 22REC T1 DLX ATM 4FC RCB HVY WT USA EFI IV http://toyotamarket.ru/us/671440/201/ RN75L-SDTEK3W1985/08-1988/08 | 22REC T1 DLX ATM 4HC RCB HVY WT CND EFI IV http://toyotamarket.ru/us/671440/203/ VZN85L-TWMREA6 1988/08-1993/08 | 3VZE STD MTM 5F RCB WT HLF R EFI USA IV6 T1 JPP http://toyotamarket.ru/us/672450/057/ VZN85L-TWSREA61988/08-1993/08 | 3VZE STD ATM 4HC RCB WT HLF EFI USA IV6 T1 JPP http://toyotamarket.ru/us/672450/058/ VZN95L-TWMREA61988/08-1993/08 | 3VZE STD MTM 5F RCB WT HLF R EFI USA IV6 T1 JPP http://toyotamarket.ru/us/672450/070/ VZN95L-TWSREA61988/08-1993/08 | 3VZE STD ATM 4HC RCB WT HLF EFI USA IV6 T1 JPP http://toyotamarket.ru/us/672450/071/ VZN95L-TWSREK61988/08-1993/08 | 3VZE STD ATM 4HC RCB WT HLF EFI CND IV6 T1 JPP http://toyotamarket.ru/us/672450/072/
  5. jdemaris RN75L SDTEA3W http://toyotamarket.ru/us/671440/202/
  6. ok so the 3VZ-FE V6 3.0L in two specs extra long and super long http://toyotamarket.ru/us/672450/070/ on the link are the part numbers for every piece of the toyota termed "U-Haul model" and with a play on the site i am sure you will also be able to find the four cylinder 22R version as well, note this site is not "official" and has no link to toyota as such. thanks yet again for your time and i hope i can persuade the boys in the know to add these models to wikipedia VZN85L and VZN95L, as well the four cylinder version RN85L.
  7. Toyota with the export success of the stout in 1963 started to get hino to do certain parts of production, by 1965 toyota had hino and diahatsu under there thumb and by 1967 toyota was hino and a key factor of diahatsu and now owns both. Yes toyota was extremely good at taking a design and improving it as there own although nissan datsan were better at copying and one of the small datsan engines were so close a copy of a British Morris engine that the datsan head could bolt on the morris block and the same series datsan engine could near bolt in the such morris without much issue apart from the metric imperial thread thing.(as the story is told) Now back to topic is it possible to get VIN on theses extra long factory wheel base toyota so I can search parts lists and so on to try and find out more about them
  8. so i was in at the bundaberg markets and took a few photos, they are extremely quiet after the recent floods. this is the only style of dyna i have seen with front disc brakes on I beam axle, i assume that the current model hiace van 2004- could be similar but on IFS independent front suspension. 14" up front 12" down back 1.5 ton and the white one in the back is a isuzu "ELF" nkr 2ton single rear 15" wheels FF this photo is just because it is different, an ex mine unit and now toyota makes a factory dual/crew cab V8 diesel http://www.carsguide.com.au/news-and-reviews/car-news/toyota_landcruiser_crew_cab_misses_crash_stars so this the back wheels, the lug/stud pattern is standard between the 12", 14" and 16" rims and thus i would also assume is the full floating hub.
  9. The aussie version can be found Google YN85R of similar years, any help there on chassis/frame id as I assume they would be a RN...?or VN...? "V6" with the 3.0l 3VZ-FE. Have the chassis/frame been cut and extended, or are they a factory extra long wheel base and the front wheel hub is of curiosity to me as well as toyota have nothing I have seen like such as everything has large drum brakes. With the FF they are a grease pack bearing with an oil seal on the axle same as the FF in the landcruiser "pickups" ute/utility and wagons and I do know of a 100 series landcruiser that spat an axle at speed and he just put it in 4wd, went back found the axle and kept driving it for about a week.
  10. Ok so as an Australian I have been searching for days with no luck on who actually made the toyota dually, as in the later items such as the u haul. I know they are toyota based off the "hilux" yet I have Wikipedia frustration yet again, hi stepho mr.choppers. With Wikipedia "citation needed" and so far all I have done is end up here, can anyone help with information "citation" that can be used such as a simple google of ford gtho will bring up Wikipedia and knowledge about them...
  11. So how I understand is that the US only had the SR suspension "soft ride" in Australia the SR5 18R was classed a luxury version and was subject to higher import tax and so did not sell so well and many SR5 ended up with the heavier standard 12R 18R (4speed column shift ) 1, 000kg hilux rear springs and a flat steel load deck "tray" as a backyard upgrade, been there rolled that... not so good as a rally car!
  12. in australia there are kits available to fit V8 to the toyota 4 and 5 speed W transmissions a bolt in job engine mounts the lot (legal reasons), even with a 350 chev bolted to one it is reverse that was the issue and on the 5 speed when reverse went so did fifth and the old cast iron 4 speed was near bullet proof in such conditions. http://www.toysport.com/technical%20information/toyota%20differentials%20identifications.htm the early US and lite stout had a toyota E series and the hilux/pickup have G land cruisers have K so this is a toyota dyna/toyoace axle 14" tyre from some formats of the dyna/toyoace (1979-85 style) now i love these plates as a toyota fan the R transmission is a full cast iron unit and might be best known in it's first gen form as the R40 in the stout, yep the one with the brake on them, so this has a second gen stout transmission (1979-) a hilux pickup and hiace van series axle in 4.88:1 ratio pushed by a 12R 1.6, yet have a front beam axle the stout after sales stopped in the US continued on as a semi cab over hiace until it basically became a cab over version of the hilux, the hiace pickup became the small version of the toyoace 1979 and after 1986 the toyoace and dyna were the same looking, there was a heavier version of the stout that was not sold in the US that shared the platform with the toyoace/dyna and so just finding out about this US duel wheel hilux based pickup is an odd ball for me.
  13. Sorry I might be not even on the right path and probably should have read more of what has been posted. I have owned many toyota with both aisin and nikki carb on models from the early 60' to the 80's although I have very limited knowledge of the 20, 21 and 22r as they were not common here in Australia. One of the frustrating things of some here were the auto choke and many here deactivated them as it dose not get cold enough here in most places to have a choke and moreso one that comes on every time you start up unless it is hot already.The auto choke were prone to sticking and thus increase fuel consumption and at now rough 6 a gallon soon got ditched and were replaced by a few pumps of the pedal on a cold day, snow is not real common here either, so just looking at this site as a learner and thought I might put my two cents in.
  14. in australia we were never allowed to go more than 30% wider than the original rims so 8" wide rims or wider are not legal if the factory rim were only 5.5", to get around such we had the lazy axle and the first image i found was this the bel air was a rare item here and i had never seen one like this that is currently for sale, it was done mainly on the locally made holden tonner platform and this is just copied and pasted CHEVROLET BELAIR 1965 MOTORHOME – MT EVELYN, VIC Australian made, 350 V8 Turbo 350 auto motor home, gas/petrol, front discs, rear drum, electric brakes on lazy axle, air bag suspension, Fiamma 45 awning, double bed and single or bunks, 2 way fridge, registered as camper with 4 seats, no Roadworthy, Registered in Victoria to January 2012. Must sell, prepared to negotiate. $13,999 ono and a neat link http://www.creativeconversions.com.au/photos?page=1
  15. Toyota have always been amazing engineers and not just do the cab tilt but you also get full acess via the seats, lift them up slip them out and it is all just there, on my 1969 there was even a notch out to slip the rear pushrod out (it is hard to explain) but to be able to remove the head and the rear pushrod without this hole would not come out and toyota had thought about that. Seriously I wish I had a photo, but after doing a piston to be able to put "another" one back in with ease and without frustration in the middle of nowhere, thats when I fell in love with my old toyota
  16. so i naturally always think of the 1969 RU12 toyota dyna i once had the engine is the R the frame were U and had a factory 12 foot bed, or 10, 14, 20 and so on mine had a 14 foot pantec that also went over the cab "lutton peak" so some of the lighter versions were called toyoace that were in many styles here is a version of a toyota dyna 150/toyoace G15 these are on 14" tires and have a toyota G series "diff centre" i think you call them 3rd members which are the same as the hilux/pickup have and are rated at 1.25t and 1.5t ???
  17. Oh and http://www.toyota.com.au/hilux/features/car-performance/payloads Load capacity is under PU/CC pick up cab chassis classification (ute utility and car class not trucks), so they do not come with a rear load deck factory and so not included in curb weights and need to be subtracted from payload. In Australia a ute is a car based pickup with car based mechanicals, a truck has has a payload greater than one metric tonne and generally have I beam front axle with leaf springs and full floating rear axles
  18. no the stout were never four wheel drives, the four wheel drive version of them was the toyota hilux pickup and not actually a four wheel drive version of the hilux pickup. the stout shared much with the 40 series land cruiser, later versions after 1986 shared more with the toyoace/dyna, the end of the stout in australia was the annual on road cost of registration and insurance and the exceeding 1,000kg payload. the hilux in australia had smaller engines 12R 1.6L and the 18R 2.0L and the next generations had Y engines as fuel economy is important when one litre of fuel costs around the same as a gallon in the US. prior to metric conversion mid 70's the stout had a GVW of 6900lb that was changed to 2,970kg as also came in was a 2 ton limit 1,800kg cab chassis classification and hence down rating from 1.75 to 1.5t metric, which late 70's which was changed to one tonne 1,000kg. the one tonne classification that still exists today is about tax and with a GVW and curb weight allow a payload greater than one tonne metric is a commecial vehicle and is not intended for private use and costs twice the price annually in on road and insurance "the death of the stout". so the cab over if not exceeding the 4.5t metric GVW can still be driven on a standard car licence, the cab over also allows a much larger camper/load deck "we have strict modification rules and many things done in the states are not legal here" and if the curb weight is increased to the point that a payload is less than one tonne metric it falls back in the cheap private car class and also avoiding an anual safty check. thank you for the info, this all started for me as i read a comment that had "dolphin" and when i figured out after a year i saw dolphin and toyota together and thought WTF and then U haul toyota duelly wtf again, any way i will part with this as my cousin is the main man that pulls the trigger and builds the chassis/frame of these https://www.google.com.au/search?q=bush+tracker+caravan&hl=en&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=bQQ0UafSEcSViQfB-YCYCw&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAQ&biw=1024&bih=665
  19. sorry this topic of toyota duellies is new to me many of our campers are built on the toyota hilux or it's cab over brother dyna/toyoace platform and the concept i am struggling to understand why the need of duel wheels to carry a ton, as the 2wd "hilux" were and always have been sold as one tonne or 1,000kg metric here and it was a major sales point back in the day of the stout as even on the little 6.50 13" tired version had a metric tonne payload, i realize the US version was only 450kg or half ton. so looking at some of the ways that how the duel wheels were fitted on some toyota "duelly" in the US scares me and then reading bits on here, i am glad for the strict australian safty standards and such as the early versions in no way would they ever been legal here (gee no spell correcting, just as good i do not know sentance structure or punctuation either). yes i am a toyota fan and have owned many over the years and i am no fan of duel wheels, i have stout this is not mine but it is a good image that is part of my collection 1967-78 101 lwb outside the US these stout were sold with 1, 1.5, 1.75 and 2t metric payloads some up until the 2nd month 2000 in south america https://www.google.com.au/search?q=toyota+stout+2200&hl=en&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=kTYzUZrZMsn4mAXPkoGQBA&sqi=2&ved=0CC0QsAQ&biw=1024&bih=665, the 2,000kg version had full floating axles and when sales of the stout ended here the dyna/toyoace which were very simular just cab over had 2.5t metric payloads on toyota K series rear axles FF on single 15" tires. 1963 2,000kg payload rk100 but the US did not want these, they wanted lighter suspension "lite stout" and hilux, i have many more photos and i just do not understand why such a dodgy way to go about things such as the early duel wheel set ups were just to carry one ton imperial
