    Colorado rear strut housing repair

    Good job, did you get them posted across to the UK? Did you replace both of them? When I had my 90 series axle out for welding the turret brackets on it and replacing the rear springs, shocks, etc,, I found Panard arm was very tough to get back in place, did you have similar difficulty with it?

    What are the "new" model cruiser chassis codes, forums section here, etc..

    Who'd want a Suzuki Jimny, yet alone a new one, yet alone want to preserve it? Ahh, only joking, each to their own, sure whatever your into! :p :)

    What are the "new" model cruiser chassis codes, forums section here, etc..

    So owning a 90 and a 120 series I haven't a whole lot of interest in the "newer" models. The one thing I did know or "thought" I knew was that all the newer Landcruisers were 2.8L and I assumed the Hilux were the same. But, it turns out the newer Hilux are 2.4L. When I say newer I mean from...

    How to fix broken window switch

    So the passenger window switch of the drivers side switch panel was broken when I bought it and I'm only taking some time to look into repairing it now. The passenger window itself works, and the passenger door switch panel operates the window correctly. It's just the switch of the drivers door...

    Fuel line air leak

    That's a pretty common pipe to fail. I had to do mine on my 90 too few yrs ago. Them tank strap bolts are a fecker all right. You should have painted your tank when you had went to the trouble of removing it.

    1KZ-TE engine Problem

    I'm not sure, but I guess it could. I'd fix the burnt connector and make sure there's 12v going to it etc,,, for starters anyway.

    1KZ-TE engine Problem

    Yeah, if the wiring to the injectors is faulty then obviously the injectors will misfire / mis-operate same as if the injector itself was faulty. When you say new engine, do you mean newly rebuilt or literally a new engine? Or a second hand engine? What happened the old engine? I think you...

    Protective plastic dirt trim covers - alternatives?

    @ Tractionman - I'm actually finding it difficult to find this EPDM stuff, you'd hardly have a link or a place in Ireland to purchase it from?

    Standard Roof rack and loud wind noise

    I don't have a sunroof on my 120, thank god, one less thing to rust / leak as it gets older. Here pics of the roof rails, spoiler, I remember being a passenger in another 120 swb with roof rails about 10 years ago and it too had dreadful wind noise now that I thought about it. @ Tractionman -...

    Standard Roof rack and loud wind noise

    My 120 SWB has the basic standard roof rails / rack fitted and the wind noise inside the cruiser is very loud. Is this typical? When I'm driving forward with foot on accelerator it's at a certain constant noise that isn't too bad but as soon as I lift my foot off the throttle or brake, start...
