Ive got the arb 3950 gvm upgrade. Best thing ever! With 800kg contants on the back, those parabolics are more comfortable than my coils up front. With the added bonus of the airbags to support heavier loads, its amazing. Also im booked in with multidrive for an axle correction. They offer a new diff housing correction for 3950 gvms so everything stays legal and the rear axles load ratings are good. Got quoted ~7k which seems reasonable to me...
OK - I didn't know they went up to 3950Kg When I looked into them it was the lower limit. Very reassured to hear you like the 800Kg parabolics. It was a bit of a wild card choice for me. I should get the car in 2 or 3 days, so I'll be able to see what I think pretty soon.
Multidrive also do a track corrected full replacement diff housing. I put one in my 76 series a few years ago as the standard 76 diff isn't suitable for the tru-tracker stub axle extension kit. The multidrive housing is remanufactured from a new 78/79 housing - extended and braced - think it has a higher load rating than the trutracker option. At the time it was priced between dwiz and jmax replacement housings. The multidrive housing looks kind of standard but beefier, the finish is excellent and it obviously corrects the rear track. Performance has been flawless.
I've had a Jmaxc 4495kg for 4 years now. The coils are great. They now have constant load coils. So you do not need to put stupid amount of pressure in a Airbags. In fact mine weighs a little heavy. I have now the constant 800kg Springs. I have removed the Air bags as I don't require them. With 900kg on the tray it sits at the same level as the standard coil unloaded. Handling is much better. I would recommend without knowing your final weights. Doing suspension and GVM upgrades last. But I know this is now always possible.
Yeah - I had to decide on the 'system' before anthing was fitted, as it all had to be done pre-rego. So there's a degree of guesswork. I did a spreadsheet (of course!) of all the items I take exploring and how much they weigh, and which axle they sit over. On paper I'm pretty close to the front axle load limit, but I've still got good headroom on the rear axle. So we'll see how it looks when I put it over a weighbridge in a few months. On paper my GVM is going to be 3650Kg, so the ARB 3950Kg kit with parabolics seemed a safe bet.
I've done a partial axle correction on my Troopy. I prefer the 225/95 skinny rims and get 40mm of correction by using the factory P20 front 16x6 rims and P0 105 series rear rims (16x6.5). That way you don't lose the factory reliability, the spare is close enough to not be an issue. Never noticed an issue on sand but think its a touch more stable towing on the highway. With wider rims you can get various offsets - ROH steel for instance can use P0 on the front and P25 on the rear, so get 50mm of correction.
OK - I didn't look at the steel options. ROH in Alloy have -12 and -59, and I thought the -59 was a bit too much of an ask for the bearing offset. The King Wheel rims I ended up buying are -25 on the rears, so I'll get 50mm of correction.
I agree with you. Neg 59 is way too much offset considering every other rim on the planet is positive offset or zero. With the 70series you can break the axle housing at the U-bolts with any type of increased offset. You'll be fine with the Neg 25 on the rear.
all i did on me 76 was put a jmacx rear diff housing replacement and kept the leaf springs. fitted only cost me 7 grand. engineered might cost a little more but i have not been pulled over once in the 4 years iv had it and i doubt any cop knows what they looking at either. they more look at the 35s…
OK - I did a quote on the JMACX website, and it came out close to $18K I reckon, but that was with shocks perhaps. $7k is not too bad for the fitted diff. And I think you're right about the 35s!
@@spudboy1328 thanks mate. I’m not a big fan of the fake beadlock look plus the rear sets is at -47 which is a bit too much. How are yours running on the -5 ? Thanks !
@espkh1549 I just fitted them yesterday (the -5 and -25 offset Kings Wheels) and they improve the look no end. You can't really notice the -5 at the front, so they look stock. But the rear looks a lot better at negative 25 and you can see the difference there. I agree with you about the -47 being too much. And they're not legal (in South Aust anyway).
I guess we'll see. I've got a 2.8 Prado and uphill with a load the temps were getting high, so I fitted an oil cooler which has knocked 10 or 15 degrees off the temps. So I might have to do that again on the 79. Although I have read somewhere that Toyota put on a bigger oil sump and transmission pan (bigger than the Hilux?). So I'll keep an eye on it and see if I need to put on some additional cooling.
This statement is not 100% correct. Regardless of its size, the 2.8 is as good as the V8 if not better. The idea that each cylinder has to work harder is actually not quite true.
@@Silvos29 Mate, I’ve got a 200, 79 V8 and bought Hilux’s for my supervisors, they flog them, we go away together, towing etc, they are as bulletproof as the V8, you have no idea what you’re talking about and probably don’t actually own one based on your comments😂

Can you share the spreadsheet? It would be a good starting point to modify for my Tacoma. :P

Look, the king wheel don’t have 0 offset for the front , it only has -5 for the front. Are you able to get zero offset for the front? Thx
You are correct - they are -5 on the front. If you want a zero offset front rim, then ROH do that in the Vapour design.

The 2.8 cruisers run too hot on the sand and when towing. Each cylinder has to work double the rate to put out same power as V8.
I guess we'll see. I've got a 2.8 Prado and uphill with a load the temps were getting high, so I fitted an oil cooler which has knocked 10 or 15 degrees off the temps. So I might have to do that again on the 79.
