1KD Valve Stem Seal Retainers

 

Stop Valve Stem Seal Blowout Before It Happens đź’Ą

 

Thai-spec valve stem seal locks for Toyota 1KD-FTV — a must-have for high-boost and high-EMP builds. These retainers mechanically secure the valve stem seals to prevent them from lifting under pressure and letting oil into the intake or exhaust. Cheap insurance for big power and long-haul reliability.


âś… Key Benefits
  • Locks seals in place — stops seal pop-up under extreme cylinder pressure/EMP
  • Cleaner intake/exhaust — reduces oil contamination and smoking
  • Proven in Thai performance builds — road and track tested
  • Perfect add-on during head work or fresh builds
đź”§ Vehicle Compatibility
  • Toyota 1KD-FTV — Hilux N70 (KUN26), Prado 120/150, Hiace (as equipped)

If unsure, message us with your VIN/Rego + State and we’ll confirm.

âť“ FAQs

Do I need these on a stock 1KD?

They’re most beneficial on high boost/high EMP setups or when the head is off. For stock power, they’re optional insurance during a refresh.

Can I fit them with the head on the engine?

Head-on installs are possible with the right tools.

Will they change idle or drivability?

No. They don’t alter cam timing, lift, or ECU strategy — they simply retain the seal under harsh conditions.
