    Basic tools to buy for self servicing land cruiser.

    +1 on the 3 pronged filter tool, also make sure that the oil drain pan is big enough, one of the wide 16 litre jobs with the drain spout works well for me.

    Leaking Brake Fluid -- What is This Part?

    I bought genuine, but from memory they were about £80 then. They are not very complex things. If you can spare the time, soak the mounting nuts with easing oil for a good while and give them a bit of heat. Andys advice on using Kunifer is well worth taking, it's a little bit harder to work with...

    Leaking Brake Fluid -- What is This Part?

    +1 on what Higgy said, a bit cheaper from Milners Brake Load Sensing Valve - [Leaving Land Cruiser Club] or a bit more for genuine from RT Genuine Toyota Rear Brake Load Sensing Valve - [Leaving Land Cruiser Club]

    Exhaust bracket squeak/rattle when idling

    As a short term fix attempt, you could try a squirt or three of aerosol copper grease (aérosol de graisse au cuivre). Must be copper grease to take the heat.

    On this day in history

    On this day (roughly), the Battle of Anwar (or Annual) took place where the Spanish forces in the Rif region of Morocco were routed. This was to result in the Rif War ( Rif War - Wikipedia - [Leaving Land Cruiser Club] ). It was a very brutal war, poison gas was used extensively by the Spanish...

    On this day in history

    They still have a couple of enclaves in the north, Ceuta and Melilla and they used to claim sovereignty over parts of the south in Spanish Sahara, which once the Spanish had left was occupied by Morocco, an area still disputed by the Sahrawi who are mainly forced to live in refugee camps in...

    WTF Covid.

    It was declassified as an HCID (High Consequence Infectious Disease) which is reserved for high fatality rate things like Ebola. Mortality rates with Covid are relatively low (about 2.6% so far in the UK at the moment), but because it's so infectious, the number of people who catch it and might...

    Patriot roof rack

    I've got the 2500mm one as well, looks to be the same size as the advertised one. As Chris said, tough as and Patriot will make up any extra bits that you think might be needed even if not listed. Mine's got a couple of channels crosswise under the middle that a table slides into.

    Must be a 5 speed rather than the earlier 4, in which case it must be more than just the dog leg stopping reverse selection if still moving forward. If not, it will stop very quickly indeed.
