Thanks StarCruiser, great information!! Have spent the last two weeks on other stuff (leaky knuckles and the likes) and have just got back on to this this evening. Have sorted most of the wiring now and done the measurements for the LED strip on the awning. I had enough for 2x 2.5m strips so...

Cant say for sure. I took a look at some old threads to see if I could give a definite confirmation. You're right, it's supposed to be here somewhere, but if you look at these threads they show where it is for 1HD-T for sure...

Ok, while we're at it. Also noticed these concerning sights looking up from underneath on the same side. :( Oh and front passenger AND driver steering knuckles are both leaking (gear oil and knuckle grease combining.. i think) I've no garage pit, no experience or tools to get stuck-In...

Hi Dave, Its pretty tight. My cameraphone is just above the oil filter and pointed just above the alternator (in the pictures from the original post). See this picture for the region the above pics point at. It is about 1/2ft down. Thanks, Will

Hi All, Bought an 80 about 6 weeks ago and have been going through the motions of getting it into shape. I've noticed what seems to be a slight leak from a part of the engine just above the alternator a little bit higher than the level of the oil filter. The picture is taken 180 degrees from...

Hi All, I installed my awning on my 80 Series a few weeks ago and have decided to put an LED strip along the inner frame of the awning behind where the canopy rolls out. I did a similar job on my old NL Pajero but this time I've decided to do things a bit differently. I've only recently...

That does help. Thanks. Have been doing continous research since purchasing last week, its just my vehicle is starting to stink because a spare tyre lives in the back. Most 80 series ive researched look quite different in this area and I havent had much luck finding an exploded view of what I...

So there is a wiring to connect to a trailer, so I would imagine that this was pulling something big not so long ago... so i think ill explore keeping bumper as is and see what can be done with current real bumper... to be continued...

Hi All, Can you please help me identify this part on my 80 series? It is located behind my bullbar under the front left of the chassis and is looking very worn. Possible replacing? Ive tried to find it via search engine but havent had any luck. Thank you, Will

I think this is the way to go: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/TOYOTA-80-SERIES-LANDCRUISER-STEEL-REAR-BAR-SINGLE-WHEEL-CARRIER-NEW-/191553930178?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item2c998103c2. Took a good look at my rear bumper too for any other options. Seems like some holes have been drilled but...

Picked up the gumtree gauge/deflator. Identical to this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rapid-Tyre-Tire-Deflator-Air-Deflators-4WD-4X4-with-Pressure-Gauge-Valve-Tool-/331583561499?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item4d33eb9f1b&vxp=mtr. Usage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eLIXbWMyO4

Thanks all! Have given it a very original name "80". Didn't die on the way home from dealership and was told if it plays up just to take it back. Gotta get rid of that roof basket though. Clearance in my carport is limited to 2.2M and it has the roof racks and 2" lift. Ran it on LPG for the 12km...

Awesome! Interestingly I found an identical model only in red on gumtree here in Queensland! Picking up tomorrow. AU$20.

Hi All, Has anyone purchased tyre pressure gauges online (Ebay/Amazon) and found any good deals and could recommend a product? I've owned an awesome one in the past (sold with my last 4x4) it was quite expensive but id rather go cheaper with good quality this time. Thanks, Will

I used the same Uniden as Paddler Ed my last rig, it was fantastic and came with a 3dB and 6dB antenna. However this time, in my 80 series, i'm opting to not install a UHF and going to go with a 5W handheld GME TX6150. These are an absolute gem. Minor issue of charging on longer trips. But as...

Fitting a rear bar wheel carrier... Hi All, I am looking to purchase and fit a TOYOTA 80 SERIES LANDCRUISER STEEL REAR BAR SINGLE WHEEL CARRIER. I can't post an e-bay link until I have posted 15 times so you'll imagination is necessary ;-) (Also, I can't post in the dedicated e-bay forum yet...

Looks awesome! Ive found some guys in QLD who build to spec for 80 series. Going to take a look in the next few days.

Hi All, New to the forum. Just bought an 1994, 80 series, Petrol/LPG, AT. Get to pick it up tomorrow! Plenty of work to be done to get it in shape for some trips around Queensland, NT and Pilbara! Will hopefully keep the information coming and leverage the bountiful information already...
