Awesome work Higgy, one i am winterising now.

Wow thanks Jake I’ve always wondered why when I pushed the gear pedal down it only went once ! strange too that my other bikes are the same lol.

I bought mine new in 97 and I must admit that im almost certain I’ve been over 70 in it !

One thing Andy and have in common is the blackbird. But by the sound of it nothing in common when it comes to cruisers lol.

Yes indeed Andy I totally agree. Hopefully an independent inspector would have a better idea of what to look for. saying that i had one done a couple of years ago on a vw which showed the car being very good which it was apart from the gearbox going into limp mode after between 50 and 100 miles...

Yes I know what you mean Shayne. Just come across one in Woking Surrey that would suit me so am thinking of getting an independent inspection on it. £7,985 | Toyota Land Cruiser 3.0 D-4D LC3 5dr 8 SEATS 15 STAMPS FULL SERVICE a place called Kingston cars 13 ltd. It would be amazing if someone on...

I suppose there is still the chance of the old fashioned dodgy mot being out there too. I live in Orkney so the numerous trips to see potential cars can get very expensive !!

I’ve been in the early throws of looking for a more modern lc than my 40 to use a daily driver. Just about every one I looked at on the Dvla mot check stunned me. The adverts claiming to be rust free etc etc are mostly fantasy when you check the mot history. Just shows how you’ve got to be...

Oops just seen how old this post is.

Check alternator and it’s connections.

Many thanks Tony but I have ordered from oz. Stan.

Thanks Tony, I ordered one for the front left hand side but if you can get more for the front ie one more for the left side and two for the right side I would be interested. Stan.

Sorted, thank a lot guys. Stan

hi, Anyone know if there is a source in the uk for a fj40 wheel cylinder ? Cheers Stan.

You simply cannot compete with upvc and if you try you will simply lose money. As above, put yourself out there via FB/estate agents /flyers etc and call yourself bespoke and expensive, there are always customers that want to pay for the best and also in my experience they want to be seen to be...

I’ll look into that one it certainly sounds good. Thanks.

I don’t think I would pay that amount Rodger but I would be interested to find out about the borderlinx account as I have another car that I can get loads of bits from the US

Thanks Rodger, I have tried a few in the states to no avail, mine are complete but split and torn in places it would be nice to have a complete fitted set with the Toyota logo. I do see the oz ones but would like more original ie a copy then I suppose they can’t do that.

Is there anywhere out there that makes the rubber floor mats for the front of the FJ 40 ?

Thanks Brian.

Aye that’s wet indeed. Correct on the Eriba.

A couple of pics of this afternoon. Stan

Thank you guys, she is providing some fun in the snow today. Stan.

Oh I’ve since lowered the tow ball.
