The Hilux Surf is renowned for its robust build quality and long-lasting reliability. This reputation has made it a popular choice for those who need a dependable vehicle for challenging conditions. It's particularly popular among those who need a reliable vehicle for rural and remote areas where durability and off-road capability are essential. The LN130R model is highly regarded for its off-road performance. Its rugged construction, solid rear axle, and available four-wheel drive system make it capable of handling rough terrains. It features a body-on-frame construction, which enhances its durability and off-road capability. Its design is practical and functional, suitable for a variety of uses. While the interior is basic compared to modern vehicles, it is functional and spacious. The rear seats can be folded to increase cargo space, making it practical for transporting goods or gear. Many models come equipped with four-wheel drive, high ground clearance, and robust suspension systems, making them well-suited for off-road adventures.

Dual Mass Flywheel Replacements (DMR) move the damping system from the flywheel to the clutch disc/plate. This returns the flywheel back to a conventional solid mass flywheel and the driveline dampening to the clutch disc.

To effectively dampen driveline noise and vibrations a multi rate (MR) clutch disc is used in DMF conversion kits (DMR). This MR clutch disc uses a torsional damper with separated first and second stage dampers. The dampener is tuned for low torque low angularity dampening as well has high toque, high angularity dampening.

Advantages Over a DMF

Note: as dual mass replacement/conversion (DMR) clutch kits do not as effectively dampen driveline noise or vibration an increased vibration and noise might be detectable especially at low RPMs. However, this will not damage the vehicle’s driveline.
