Ben is correct MT tyres wouldn't help I think. I need to get bigger tyres. Every times I was stucked I was sitting on diffs. Anyway Ben great you have both lockers working. :-)

A little update on Easter High Country trip. Here are data from Hema Explorer which have been recorded only during offroading.

There was no time to take pictures of difficulties...:laughing-rolling: It is grade very difficult but of course, you can find much harder tracks if you want to. For us, it was a first offroad experience.:icon-cool:

Hi Ben, That's great idea, let's do some trip. :banana-dreads:It would be nice for us to get into the offroading community, driving alone is sometimes scary :icon-biggrin:

Christmas is for most people time to be with family at home but for us, it was time to explore our surrounding. After some searching on the internet, we have decided for the iconic trail in Wonnangatta river area. This circuit is rated as very difficult. :-) The night before we got into this...

Haha, this is what I didn't want to hear :-D Looks like I need to buy brake fluid in my "home's stock". I have noticed that rivets and was a bit surprised. that's why I asked. I know these callipers from 2007 Hilux and Landcruisers 200 and 120 series but there are independents axles so flex hose...

Guys, last weekend I did tie rod ends, it wasn't big trouble...:-) BUT I took a look on front brake callipers and one question about it - when I want to remove the calliper from the rotor, do I need to disconnect brake hose? There is something like holder for brake pipe but it seems like...

Thanks, I am happy with any suggestion. I don't have any overview of aftermarket companies which makes parts for Toyotas... And of course, it is different in Europe and here in Australia...:-)

Thanks for great answers and tips. Unfortunately, in Czech, we can't get these great trucks...

Yes, I am generally from CZ and I am registered by Czech email address but now I'm living in Melbourne. So that's why I sent that link...:-)

And just quick question: Is in this kit everything for rebuild the knuckles and bearings? http://www.cando4x4.com.au/p/6223398/swivel-hub-kit-wheel-bearings---toyota-landcruiser-hilux.html

All right guys, it helps. I just ask because I know Isuzu and when we repack wheel bearings we have to remove inner seal and it must be replaced otherwise we can't remove the inner bearing. But there is the independent front axle. I have no experience with life axles so a bit adventure and...

I'm going to replace my front rotors and pads, also I want to repack bearings. But one question: Do I have to replace some seal or something which must be replaced everytime I remove wheel hub? I need to do it during one weekend so I want to be prepared not to be stacked on missing part... :) In...

Great guys, thanks a lot that's what I need...

hmm looks very interesting. I have to learn a lot. :-) Unfortunately, I'm not able to download a repair manual where I suppose I can find this "tricks and tips" Thanks a lot and I'll try this

Hey guys, I have a question about brands on the market. (especially in Aus) I need to replace all ball joints on the steering rods. I have been told prices for genuine and it is around AU$700, which is a bit more than I would like to spend for this on 30 years old daily car. Do you have...

Yes, ARB is about 5 mins driving from my home. I would say all eastern suburbs are nice. You can see Mt. Dandenong etc...

Welcome, I am not Aussie but live in Australia... ;-)

Because I have my cruiser just a couple of months and I didn't have my tools here in Australia, etc. I don't have a lot of experiences with those trucks but I can write about another thing which could be interesting for someone here. Back in Czech, I have another 4WD vehicle, unfortunately...

Thanks a lot for tips. I didn't write before. I work as a mechanic in Isuzu dealership, I need just to buy a goods and labour is on me.

Sorry guys for a later reply... Shortly we live in Kilsyth so pretty close to Boronia. :-) What I want to upgrade is snorkel, and then whole technical condition of this truck. It is in good condition for its age but some parts like bushes etc. are a bit worn... But everything has own time.:-)...

Hi everyone, my name is Jiri and originally I am from the Czech Republic, which is the small country in the middle of Europe. My Australian home is in Melbourne. I have been in Australia for 13 months so, please excuse my English which is not perfect...:-) I have bought HJ 75, from 1988...
