Nick, finished that some time ago now. TBH, I'm not too sure it's really my thing. It's fabulous to drive and use, very comfortable and hugely capable.... but I haven't fallen in love with it as I have the cruiser travelling. I'm really on the fence on this and deciding if I want to keep...

Thanx for the replies gents! The brakes on mine a pitiful and I keep meaning to get them sorted so will crack on . @JW... that booster looks interesting will investigate further thanx.

Guys, I'm looking to upgrade the brakes on the 80. Wanted vented discs and braided hoses etc. Is there a readily available kit for this that anyone knows of? Would save me a load of hassle/time of having to source individual parts for the job. I'm assuming it's a pretty straight forward...

Thanks Andy, I've pretty much exhausted all the know solutions. As you know the petrol doesn't have sep starter relay and the solenoid is part of the starter. Battery is ok Cables all ok Terminals oll ok Fuse link ok Not EFI relay Not neutral safety switch. Been working fine until this week...

Looking for starter motor for FJ80. Anyone on here got one? Thx

Nick, plenty pics and info on www.overlandingtrucks.com/forum

I know this isn't a Landcruiser..... but same principle My alternator has started behaving oddly. At first this was only with indicators as per video, but on trip back from Wales, after about half hour driving (when the engine was warm ) it began to do the very same with no indicators running...
