I got Toyo's and I think they are rubbish they drill my spine every pot hole.

Should be able to buy one if not cut one yourself just get the correct thickness and before you fit it in straighten the metal around each of the bolt holes so it doens't start leaking again. You need a flat surface for the gasket to seal correctly. If you over tighten it will leak and if you...

Now it's starting first kick every time I am stoked.

STILL HAD AN ISSUE WITH STARTING SO i REPLACED THE RYCO FUEL FILTER (BRAND NEW) WITH A COOPERS ONE AND NOW IT STARTS BEAUTIFUL. Might even have a bit more power now that its not leaking at the seal of the filter.

Hello again Diesel owners as you can see above I fixed this car with a cheap primer pump. I then changed the fuel filter and had to re-prime the diesel engine and it started not starting first kick again so I have been chewing this over for a few weeks trying to think what was wrong then it hit...

Nissan partrols were effected and that filter has gone in the bin had to buy another and lets face it you guys buy your filters in the shop like me usually this was the only japanese filter I had purchases. the engines that came out of Jap spares in the 80's also had the issue occasionally. I...

Don't buy Japanese filters for Australian Japanese cars the sneaky buggers made the mounts different so they do not fit might be as simple as a lug in the wrong place preventing sealing. So now my Cruiser is like a beached whale in the driveway until I go into town and purchase an aussie made...

I have an auto locker in the front I hate and air locker in the rear some one advised me this was the best setup for the hj60 well no. Air lockers all round would be much better. Never seen cable lockers on a HJ60.

Just remove the liners and press in new ones just be very clean when you clean the barrel after removing sleeves use wet and dry to clean barrels.

I don't think my 1982 HJ60 4 speed box is giving me all it's got anyone know how fast it should go? will they do more than 110k?

Was the o-ring on the top Plunger that you pump up and down it was perished so had to push out the pin holding the top of plunger on remove spring and remove remains of O-ring clean up (Lucky I got a box of O-rings at a garage sale) and replace o-ring put knob back on plunger and push pin home...

If the engine has dry sleeves they can be pulled out with a large home made puller with a 1" threaded bar an international truck used sleeve to pull the sleeve up through and a 3/4 inch plate on the underside rebated to fit snugly under the sleeve put the nut on the bottom side and a 3/4 rattle...

Now It was 3.00pm Had my wife with dementure onboard and I was up the creek didn't like the prospect of driving 50 kilometers home without a clutch would have been an adventure but too much traffic these days. well they did not have a New Master cylinder in stock for me at 3.00pm but they got...

Found out today this could be a bad sealing lift pump when it was in the shop some time ago employees tried to bleed it and has not been right since then so I have a kit and pump coming. might do a bit more up top then.

I got a set recently I have wanted a set since 2005 when I rebuilt my engine as No 5 cylinder fire ring was burnt out from all the heat that accumulated around no5 where the engine pipe runs off. Well now each cylinder has its own pipe so heat will be even along the header bank top speed is no...

If brakes are seized put in nuetral hand brake off and rock it if clutch is seized put in gear and rock it they should free eventually. Tailgate model is better quality than barn door model as the barn door model was commercial model made for police fire brigades and other commercial...

Smoky exhausrt eh? Well the injector pump hasd an oil seal in it think it might be leather I myself havent seen it and it seperates the diesel and engine oil when it deterorates the engine oil mixes with the fuel and gives a smoky exhaust very cheap fix apparently but I can't tell you anything...

Hj60 were hard to paint inside the gutter section during manufacture my roof I replaces in 2001 with a new roof and heaps of fish oil put in behind the the roof gutter section it will never rust now. almost 20 years on at the time I would have been happy if I got 6 years out of a new roof what...

A website is always better than facebook as the info remains here for some one new.

Well it started playing up again and today I fixed the oil pressure gauge think it was either the 82 didn't like 86 gauges or the 86 gauges didn't like the ecu both sets of gauges didn't like the new oil pressure switch so the old one went in the old dash gauges went in and I got a new ecu when...

Just realised.

Possibly be regulator. yes I know it's fixed but others might have similar issues and these wern't covered I have a 60 series regulator is on the inner guard.

Alternator might not be charging if it is and you have a maintenance free battery just toss the battery maintenance free batteries are rubbish and should be chucked first sign of failure or you will end up stuck some where.

I have been using these tyres since 1999 because I like them but I can't seem to find them online now have they been discontinued? Do I have to find a similar tyre and does anyone know with the new brands what would be similar I don't do beach often hardly ever and with these tyres I could climb...

Also thank you Jibber Jabber for those drawings as I needed them to find a relief valve.

One other thing that seems to have corrected itself is my cruiser is starting first key now and isn't shutting down immediately after starting. I used to have to turn the ignition on twice before I could start the car.

So the dash had been in for 8 years and when I got the planatory chamber rebuilt I put in a new ECU (Engine Control Unit) and there must be somthing different in the type of engine control unit I got as the previous one was s/h out of any model HJ60 where as this one was ordered special for my...

Below is the new pressure relief valve well worth the expense as I had low pressure before the gauge stopped working. I did not think I was going to get it working as the wiring digram is more complicated than what is in the HJ60 itself, it's different. Possibly because it goes through the...

Hello I'm back and I have excellant oil pressure in my Landy now I had the wrong model dash meaning wrong wiring to the oil pressure gauge or the oil pressure gauge didn't work. I also had another issue the oil pressure switch advertised for landcruisers did NOT WORK leaving me to think I had...

Well this is the idea to help others?

That photo was taken in 2006 a while back now. can't wait until this coronavirus is gone and we can travel again. The new Heads they were making them on the Gold Coast QLD Au.

Over here the oil filter is a Z161 or wz161 I think that oil stain is from the oil I wiped the rubber with if it was leaking the oil would be clean as its only done one or two trips to town since I changed the oil. It also got a new oil pump mains big ends etc and its only done 40,000k or...

Yes that is it thank you very much I just purchased a new valve so just need to wait for the postman now it's comming a long way. Comming from New Hampshire. USA where did you find that image of it Jibberjabber? I'm very happy even though it cost a small fortune.

I'm thinking it's the hex bolt on the oil cooler housing, right of the mounting block next to the top right hand bolt holding the filter housing. I want to be sure as I have made the mistake of undoing the wrong bolt on somthing long ago a wrecker toyota repair guy or an early HJ60 (Diesel)...

No mine doesn't have the pressure relief valve on the filter housing.

yes ok but that's not the question I asked now I have to re ask it. Don't mean to seem rude. This is about servicing the pressure relief valve nothing else. Thank you Jibberjabber for the compliment on my cruiser for many years it was the only car I could drive after a spinal injury the seat and...

I have a problem the oil pressure relief valve from 11.1984 on ward is on top of the oil filter housing there is another near the oil pump now My HJ60 is a 1982 and it has a hex head bolt on the mounting block the oil filter housing is attached to is this where the pressure relief valve is on...

No I have a bad back and it would be too hard for me to fit one so I do the pressure valves once their done there is nothing else I can do motor is tight still and like i said oil is getting to the lifters. I might get a mechanic to hook up a gauge if I need to.

the engine only has about 40-60,000k's on it and the oil pump was new so it can only be the pressure valves and these must be checked as the whole side of the engine block can be blown out if they are blocked I have seen one engine this happened to and not a pretty sight. That was a 1987 model...

I changed the oil and filter yesterday almost no difference in the gauge reading so next will be new springs in the oil pressure valves which will arrive any day now.

Its not making tappet noise which is a good sign it shows the oil is getting around the engine.

Ok changed the Dash then the gauge went right up and wouldn't drop so I figure bad sensor. I fitted a new oil pressure switch, now the gauge go up with key and drops slowly when the engine starts and it drops almost to the L mark about 4-5mm above it I haven't driven it yet might look into the...
