One job in the pipeline (excuse the pun) involves removing the fuel tank. I have never seen a set up like it. Multiple pipes going to and fro the tank from the filler neck.

After replacing the whole front-end wheel bearings etc, I still have the rumbling that I thought was the wheel bearings. So now I think it is the rear transfer case output shaft bearing. I have removed the rear prop shaft and the noise has gone. I can move the prop shaft flange at the gearbox...

Can anyone help me find the hubs from a Hilux to fit my KZJ78 What I thought was a wheel bearing gone turns out to be the hub shaft. Also the electric hubs have been butchered so I might as well replace everything and have manual hubs. So if anyone knows of anyone breaking or a breaker please...

I am sure this has been covered before and there are a lot of cures on the net. I thought I would just say what I have done to fix the problem with my automatic gearbox drain plug. Quite simply (if you have any tapping experience). I drilled it out to 10.5mm and tapped with a 12x1.75 tap, This...

What have people done regarding stereos...It looks like a double DIN would fit ? I don't mind single DIN but the small cubby hole under the stereo in a bit of a waste of space. Also what about the aerial, mine is just a manual one. Has anyone got tips for a replacement? Also there are places...

Has anyone done this repair? Just at the top corner of the windscreen I have a hole! Looks like a windscreen out job. I am wondering about glueing a piece of steel in. I don't want to bodge it but modern day adhesives are very good. I am thinking of PU adhesive (Sikaflex or similar). It would...

I am just starting to potter around sorting out the minor rust. I need to remove the fuel filler pipes . My question is why are there so many small pipes? I can understand there needs to be a air pipe but it seems very complicated as well as a dirt trap. Has anyone simplified or modified them...

I have been crawling around under my KZJ78 doing a whole load of cleaning and notice it has Old man emu springs and shocks. When I bought it I didnt think it was raised up or modified. Do I need to inform the insurance? Regards Graeme

I am sure that these questions have been asked before! At the moment I have standard wheels running 31x10.5 r15. I need a new set of tyres. What about changing the wheels for 16"? What do you think? I prefer steel wheels. I presume that there is more tyre choice as I have the same size on my...
