sana may fortner 4x4 na sasali para ma testing talaga ang 4wd drive capabilities niyan

a challenge to fortuner owners? hehehehehe

sayang, kung 4x4 lang ang rig ko sasali ako. its already got the height, suspension system and engine. transmission nalang kulang

[boybi]

walang problema sa transmission and transfer case. ang kulang nalang is prop shaft, locking hubs and the shifter. i-4wd na yan!

[KCboy]

sana masmadami pa para ok.

[111prez]

boybi -- tama ka nga. ready na pala yung front transmission and transfer case.

nabasa ko sa patrol4x4.com na mas maganda daw ang manual locking hubs. totoo ba ito?

[boybi]

meron kanya kanyang pros and cons ang manual and auto/hybrid hubs. kapag manual, you have to get out of the vehicle to lock the hubs. kapag auto, hindi na. pero kapag auto, and umakyat ka ng incline tapos nabitin at umatras ka, mag-unlock kasi yung auto hubs, same as kapag nasa mud pit ka and atras-abante ka, baka mag unlock din yung hubs. yung hybrid hubs ng nissan, pwede mo naman i-manual lock, pero kung nakalimutan mo, parang auto locking hubs na sya.
also, sa manual hubs, pwede kang mag low range na naka 4x2 lang (naka free yung front hubs). this is good for towing and going up steep inclines na paved.
