After my weekend at Avoca in the Pyrenees Ranges both my CVs are knackered. They are both clicking, banging.
I plan on running bigger tyres and would like to upgrade to some chromolies.
Now the trick is where can I get them?

Oh bugger. Toyota CV eh? What model do you pull them off?
What mods are needed to fit? I'm very curious.

IFS hilux can apparently be made to work.
Just thought about that - captain obvious moment - solid axle hilux would be a bit of work

I remeber reading somewhere the the infamous "Joes Vitara" ran Toyota CV's . I heard he sold it because things were too easy and he didnt break things
My upgrade will sure be Toyota CVS. Lowrange Offroad do an adapter I believe!@

i think you'll find that it was Jeff's Vitara, Joe's infamous Vitara was stopped by a dickhead drink driver.

just put new cv's in, worry about it when people comment that you made a days trip with only stopping to replace 3 cv's
A bit of stuffing around and a creatively machined piece would see sierra chromoly cv's fit, but thats a job for a smart person

My bad. I wasn't in the scene when it was around. I have a shocking memory
Either way it was tough
