  1. The wheels and other mods look great, but............ Be aware that they are probably (very likely) not legal to have them fitted to your van. As it is a commercial vehicle you MUST have load rated wheels and tyres fitted or the van becomes instantly unroadworthy / unregistered in any state of Australia. (This means 8 ply rating at least and a load index of 105 or greater for the tyres for all Hiaces) As your van has what appear to be passenger car type wheels and tyres it will probably be only a matter of time before you are pulled over and they get checked. I see lots of nice wheels advertised on ebay due to people being caught with non load rated mags and tyres fitted to their Hiaces. You may be lucky and only get a yellow sticker on the windscreen but more often than not the police will issue a do not move sticker and a large fine.(This is particularly so in NSW, where they have been craking down on modded Hiaces and other commercial vehicles for some time now) Good luck.
  2. The air filter is under the van on the drivers side, just behind the front wheel. There's a wing nut on the bottom of the air filter housing, undo it and there's your filter!
  3. Hi everyone, I am a retired motor mechanic / electronics technician who has a 1994 LH125 Toyota Hiace Commuter that is being converted to a campervan / mobile radio shack. (I am a licenced amateur radio operator as well) To that end it's being fitted with a bed, a 100litre water tank, a rudimentary kitchen setup (most cooking will be done outdoors or under the awning) and a place to operate my radio gear. It currently has over 250A/H of battery capacity for the 80litre Engel fridge, 2 LED lights and the radio gear with more on the way. It tows around my 12M telescopic mast that is mounted on a boat trailer and I use the gear not just for my hobby but for emergency communications where it is needed. I look forward to enjoying my stay here on the board, from what I have seen so far it will be quite informative. Thanks for entertaining me, Jeff
