Nice! That’s my plan, thought I’d give the Eastwood stuff a try first and I think I’ll stick with it for the rest. I’ve done underneath the spare wheel carrier and up to the rear axle too, time consuming process but the rear quarter is the worst of it I think

A job I’ve been meaning to do for a while! fortunately just surface rust so took the worst of it off with a grinder and wire wheel, painted with Eastwood rust encapsulator platinum then top coated with 2k Eastwood chassis black. First time using Eastwood products, the encapsulator went on very...

Thanks it looks decent I’ve taken my OEM bumper off to clean up the rear crossmember, the support for the bumper has rusted out so would rather put money to a heavy duty bumper - that’s my excuse anyway

Are those the bumpers that are for sale on eBay? been looking at rear bumpers but almost fell over when I saw the price of some online :anguished: but those ones look like a reasonable price in comparison

I fitted 285 75 r16 bfg all terrains with no lift, no issues.

I had some issues a while back with my central locking after heavy rain, then after a few days of dry weather it would fix itself. If you pop the bonnet in the top corners of the engine bay just below the bottom corners of the windscreen check for any debris, leaves twigs etc. Mine was all...

Yes everything has been working spot on! Result

Yeah it turned out to be a load of leaves/twigs/mud/dirt blocking the drainage channel on the top corner of the engine bay just below the windscreen. This was causing the water to build and leak down into the passenger side. Cleaned up yesterday and cleaned out the connector block and so far so...

I have found what could potentially be the issue. Its on the passenger side JB the one with the fuse panel on in the footwell. There seems to be a few connectors that are corroded. I have had a look at the wiring diagram and it is connectors '2P'. I need to study/learn how to read the wiring...

Working for me! Thanks a lot :thumbup:

Yeah, unplugged them and took off the rubber sleeve to have a good look and everything was ok. I will do the passenger side tomorrow I think

@nick_the_fish could I please get a copy! [email protected] thanks

@jibberjabber Your right, after reading that post that makes sense and looking at the photos confirms that it is definitely that relay. I think I will leave it disconnected and not bother replacing with the info on here. Now to find the original problem :grinning:

My bad, seems to be the heater matrix https://www.landcruiserclub.net/community/threads/reinstalling-air-pre-heater-matrix-help-please.146870/#post-1429513

It was a relay just like this one located on the drivers side in the engine bay https://www.landcruiserclub.net/community/threads/1hd-ft-glow-plug-relay-melt-down.148084/

So had a bit of time today and did the checks you guys suggested. @jibberjabber the doors seemed to operate the interior lights normally (I think!) Do the front doors only operate the interior light above the 2 front seats & the door lights. Then the rear doors and tailgate operate both. @uHu...

Ok great thanks for the suggestion, I will have a look tomorrow. Do you need to take the door panel off to inspect? Edit- Ive just found a good post on here which explains. Going to have a good look tomorrow and will post some updates. Cheers

Thanks I will give that a try!

My trusty LC has recently developed a problem with the central locking. It is intermitent and occasionally goes back to normal but has more recently been consistent. I always use the key rather than the remote. The symptoms are: 1. Doors unlock with key, when a door is opened all the doors...

Sorry haven't been on here for a while!! Well, the passenger door wasn't shutting right and seemed to be getting worse. After watching my missus open the door hundreds of times and just letting it open until it caught itself I was convinced one of the hinges had become bent. After much messing...

Thankyou! Just ordered via partsouq

So after a bit of a balls up and misjudgement of why my passenger door wouldn't close (don't ask :tearsofjoy:), I am now in need of a passenger side front lower door hinge if anyone has one or can point me in the right direction. Cheers Joe

Thanks Gav, that would make sense. Had a lot of rain the last couple days! Will confirm when I know for sure. Cheers

Thanks. I messaged the previous owner to see if he could help, suggested alarm system but tried this but no change. There's also a separate led for the alarm next to the gear stick. Will keep searching. Thanks

Hi, Wondering if anyone can tell me what this light is indicating. It was off yesterday and always has been, got in this morning and it's on and won't go off. Thanks in advance Joe

Here's how the BFG AT 285/75/r16 look on standard suspension. Not bad!!

285/75/r16 AT KO2's ordered and being fitted on Thursday. Ive got standard suspension (its a GX) so hoping you guys are right and they don't rub! £735 inc fitting from South Hams Tyres

Hi Andrew, I don't seem to be able to PM you. Have clicked on your profile and on my inbox but no option to PM. Could well be interested in the tent. Can you message me and i will hopefully be able to reply. Cheers

cheers, just added a couple :thumbup:

Hi, So after owning a couple of hilux's and becoming a big Toyota fan I have finally purchased a 1998 Amazon GX 4.2td Auto :grimacing: A 600 mile round trip to collect her, but so worth it and the 5 hour drive home definitely gave us some bonding time! Soo plans are to: - use as my daily...
