Hi People.
I recently got myself a 2006 Dualcab SR5 Hilux, Just before Christmas last year. Its the first vehicle I have bought secondhand and not felt ripped off after a few weeks!! Very happy with it. It is In immaculate condition, inside and out. It came with canopy, towbar, bullbar, winch, UHF, electric brake unit and a nice set of Lightforce spotties.
Underneath is unmarked and looks to have done mostly Highway km.
I did 7000km on the way home from Adelaide to Mount Isa via broken Hill and Brisbane. Never missed a beat.
Im about to head off to Perth in Late June and have done a few of the regulation jobs that had to be done...EGR clean, though not the manifold yet, extra fuel filter and catch can from Baileys and cat delete. I have a ARB 145l plastic tank arriving soon and that should just about do it.
I have got the electric windows running constantly and stopped the key buzzer going off....Two pet hates.
Me, Im a mechanic, currently working underground on a fleet of 125 Landcruisers. Mostly imported 6 cylinder vehicles, though we did have mostly V8's..now all dead.
Looking forward to reading peoples ideas and thoughts and hopefully offer some advice.
Cheers
