    4.2Td Wanted - 12v or 24v

    Are there any 12v or 24v 4.2td complete engines out there? All ancilliaries etc, maybe even the box as well. Ive had a price which made me wince, I might get lucky on here?

    Crypto Overlanding

    Hi Shayne, On one point you are correct, you cant lose more than you stake (but if you are actually mining then you can use more electricity than you earn through the coins minded though). I'm going to generalise, but things are not infinite and many of the new systems are "deflationary" where...

    Crypto Overlanding

    There are some valid points made in this post. I am fortunate that a good friend is obsessed with Crypto and has been for a few years now. Invest without doing your homework and you might as well throw your money down the drain, if you fancy a dabble, treat it like its money you can afford to...

    Speedo Drive Leaking

    Asking for a friend (honest!) - anybody had a problem with the speedo drive leaking oil? O-ring renewed and started to leak again soon after. The level bung is out because it was being topped up :thumbup:

    New (to me) LC80 - A rolling project - first question!

    The only image I can find is one in mid-prep before rubbing down and smoothing the epoxy paint (shame it was white!) - took about 8 yrs to become a nice shade of grey.... Its coming back to me now - the axle was off because I tore the radius arm brackets, so I remounted them a little for some...

    New (to me) LC80 - A rolling project - first question!

    I used some surplus industrial paint from work - I dont think it was anything special - just a 2 pack epoxy resin paint (e.g. garage floor type stuff). All I did was degrease the balls, rough them up with course sandpaper / dremmel and then painted - still good now :-)

    80 Series Front Bench Seat for RHD - Part Number / Any for Sale?

    Does anybody know of a front bench seat (with seatbelts) for a RHD 80 series / Or even just the part number? As rare as hens teeth over here I believe but a few around in Aus and Africa apparently?

    Project LC80

    They look well, I must do the same, I am one bonnet opening from not getting in again on my blue one. You might find its a subtle blend of many components just showing their age a little, whilst the 4.2td is no rocket ship, it should be able to hold its own a fair way. I cant quite make out if...

    New (to me) LC80 - A rolling project - first question!

    A bit of a win with the centre diff lock mod today - I took a chance on e-bay and ordered the centre diff lock out of a RAV4 SXA1 that was being broken - £15 all in. It was listed with the number off the moulding on the case - 157438 and not the proper part number (not sure what the moulded...
