Aternator brushes worn out, had the same thing happen on my hilux, should be able to just buy the brushes

I have 285s on a 2" lift with -50 offset wheels and zero rubbing, could probably get away with smaller offset, try raptor4x4, they sell lift kits, I had ironman on mine but eventually changed the rear spring and shocks all round as they sagged like fook

I'm in need of an lj70 front axle (later square headlight type), with 4.88 diff PM me if you have one for sale, thanks Jack

Yep that's the gearbox, the transfer box should have its own code, not a clue what it is though but this place sells them http://www.marks4wd.com/low-range-overdrive-gears/low-range-gears/toyota.html Pricy though :O

Good luck, I will eventually go with a cross over set up like yours, I'm pretty sure the panhard rod will have to be moved back so have been looking into aftermarket panhards for Jeep jks, they are bent to clear the diff pumpkin so would be possible to mount it quite a bit further back than...

Same actually, the radius arms look pretty sweet, I've got castor bushes but would much prefer to run standard bushes and the correction in the arms, tempted at the HD steering arms aswell

This company was originally only in Portugal but now they have a u.k website and sell some pretty cool goodies for lj/kzj70s http://www.raptor4x4.co.uk/toyota-professional-4x4-off-road-parts-kzj-lj-70-landcruiser/toyota-professional-4x4-off-road-parts-land-cruiser.html Never ordered from them...

Here's a good build of a 70 trayback, worth a read http://pirate4x4.fr/showthread.php/9409-Toyota-KZJ-AJS

I do like that but worry about it falling fowl of the l.e.z once registered as I'm in the dreaded m25 ring :(

You'll find them terrible those landcruiser, I'll do you a favour and take it off your hands lol :eusa-liar: bloody gorgeous and awesome with the new boots on

Not to sure on the 90 series, would be bloody handy if it did, any luck with the prop swap?

Round or square headlight? On my kzj70 the front and rear props are exactly the same and I've swapped them round a few times, good for getting out of a bad situation

Doesn't the hand brake have to have a manual linkage? Pretty sure your not allowed hydraulic, Ben's got a pretty good write up with his using Subaru calipers

Nice landcruiser, more pics! Tempted to paint my 70 the same colour

Same here ;) keep those templates!

Trucks with my dad at the mo, the rear anti roll bar is a lot different to the front, it follows the shape of the axle bolting onto the back of the axle radius arm mounts

If you want ultimate on road handling the rear anti roll bar off a lj78/kzj78 will bolt up to your rear axle and all you need to mod is the drop link chassis mounts which is just 2 holes each side :thumbup: I'm running one on mine with front removed and its tight so with both it would be like a...

Very interesting, still have the iron man on the front but have new ome's on the back so no need for springs but I'm thinking they will be going on my truck once the back starts sagging

You would be surprised at how much weight is pressing down on that tyre, it will most of the time have enough traction to get you through what your doing, especially vs not enough flex, also makes it a lot more stable, as a comparison my mate had a vid of a truck with little articulation and...

Door cills are solid apart from the rear where the arches used to overlap and trap mud so rather than just replace the little bit I did box section cills/sliders, also welded up the wheel arch flare holes and set fire to the interior lol

Weld done on the test! Even if you don't do the mining job at least you can say your the best of the best at tig welding now 8-)

Tyres are great in the mud, and fairly quiet on road so thumbs up from me! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9fBXji0LSg

All tyres fitted, not much louder than the bfg's, clearancing, Just a rough cut and inner arch needs sorting but started though jpg[/IMG]

If you can hold out for one look for a kzj70, has the 3.0td engine, is more reliable and much more power

Cheers, not fitted yet, still looking for a 4th 80 wheel

After a stock landcruiser 80 alloy wheel, doesn't matter if its corroded Cheers

Tyre porn!!!!!!!! Took a gamble on these relatively unheard of tyres, they are lakesea xterains, they are 35 10.50 16 and measure 34.5" tall with 18mm tread depth

I reckon they are under less stress as they don't have to deal with stopping the axle from rotating now, I've had no problems at all Went to slab common with a few mates, the hilux is 4 link rear with fedima 37s and twin arbs, the four track is 3 link a frame rear with insa turbos and welded...

Depends, if its an lj70, kzj70, rj70 then its an 8" diff same as a hilux rear diff, the 9.5" came in the heavy duty 70's

Trucks looking better already :thumbup: not that it was looking bad in the first place though lol should be more enjoyable offroad

Fronts definitely moving better with the new set up, thinking about putting the longer shocks on now 8-)

Awesome report B) I'd say the only place to rival Australia would be moab in america

Got them on eBay, unfortunately I can't fit them, as I get so much articulation on the back end they will rub on The chassis and inner arch :( so they're back on ebay

New wheels!! Spotted this today, a bit random KFC? Kentucky fried crane? (I know its a heron :) )

Yeah the standard mounts been chopped and ive welded a plate over the hole for the hoop to sit on, I've kept the old shock mounts just in case though

Works beast of a 2 post ramp Holy crap what a difference!! Drives so much better now, felt like you were crashing into speed humps before now it glides over, just need some new rear shocks now

Yep, have 10" travel shocks at the most but could squeeze 12" travel under with lowered bump stops, also wasn't happy with the shock hitting the spring while flexing Pics are terrible

Cheers Teaser PIC :ninja:
