    Hiace engine clearance

    This is the best i can do for you pics wise of glovermans set up: I set the sump level with the engine cross member and set the engine up so when adapted with the manual box it would bolt through the stock mount. Possibly try switch the mounts from side to side and see where that sits...

    1UZ - 2wd Hilux Engine Mount CAD files

    Possibly, those are set up off the 2L diesel chassis mounts. The 3y/4y and 22r chassis mounts are all positioned differently along the chassis rails. Pretty sure the angles will all be the same.

    1UZ - 2wd Hilux Engine Mount CAD files

    Here is a pic of the mounts we(gloverman and myself) use for the 1uz/hilux conversion. With these they use the stock 2L(diesel) rubber mounts and bolt the engine straight in with no mods to the g/box Xmember.

    Hey Nick, So this is that new project you were talking about. Sorry im a bit out of the loop, havnt been on here in ages. Yeah the S4/5 uses the rear sump and fits in quite nicely. How different are the 4/5 crossmembers from the S2??? Looks like its comming along nicely. You gonna run it up...

    Oil Filter

    Z418 in a hilux chassis This is a pic of my z418 oil filter fitted to my Soarer/SC400 1UZ which is in a hilux. I believe you can buy this filter mount from toyota and its probably cheaper than setting up a remote system. See filter directly below dipstick.

    mazda b2500 with lexus v8 conversion

    this ute was one of the guys from the cartune company(glovermans workshop) and we were bored one night so just did a random test fit into it. We had heard it was a real mission to do but its not much different to a hilux really. the ute is for sale on trademe now i think as a rolling body.
