    FIP leak... any ideas?

    Noticed a stain on the tarmac under the front left of my beloved oiler so stooped down to have a look and it is diesel... well, it tastes like diesel! Lucky it wasn't dog... A very quick look under the car and the bonnet (no more than that has been done as I had a decent pair of jeans on)...

    For Sale: OME Caster Correction Bushes 80 Series

    Hi, before these go on ebay.... OME Caster Correction bushes to fit the radius arms of an 80 series. I bought these when I fitted to 2inch lift but they really are not necessary for that lift. I think they are 2 degree correction (I'm getting old, can't remember!) Genuine in the original...

    Brake Pads - front at the moment.

    A well worn question, I know, but who is using what? Time to update... I have been quite happy with the EBC Green Stuff pads in the front for at least 15000 miles (on OE discs) but they are up for changing (no shock there I hear you say). I'd happily go with Green Stuff again, but EBC are...

    MOT time approaches and I need a LH (ie UK Near Side) tail light to fit a UK 80 series to replace the one knocked by a delivery truck. It needs to posted to Mrs B as I'm currently stuck serving with Her Majesty's finest. Good condition only, please, with as little contact corrosion as possible...

    Front seats

    I can remember if this has been on here before, but it is a fairly common topic on Mud. My seats are showing their age, there was a repair in the dvr's seat cushion when I got the truck and there foam is having a crumbling issue on both cushions. The seats are still quite comfortable but how...

    Possible OEM Parts prices decrease....

    Yeah, I know: We'll believe it when we see it! :lol: I was in the local stealer for an (yet another) oil filter yesterday and the helpful chap behind the counter was surprised by how high the price was so re-checked for me. I mentioned that the filter was about all I bother with at OEM prices...

    TVSS and Carpet cleaning

    Well, today was a rather flat day (a Rhubarb and Custard reference for those that might remember...) I have been thinking for a while that the unknown TVSS alarm in my '94 truck could be a problem waiting to happen. I have a Thatcham Cat 2 Immobiliser fitted (another insurance tax...

    'Pigtail' recovery loops

    Hello chaps, Are the 'pigtail' recovery loops/towing eyes suitably rated for winch use? As I'm in the area on the chassis, I will be getting some new bolts (8.8 grade min) but a bit longer to hold on some eyes as well as bumper mounts and the tow bar on the back. They'll also be long enough...

    Powder Coating company

    Prompted by another thread, here are the people I use for my powder coating needs... I've seen all sorts down there from shop fittings to complete motorcycle frames. I shall be taking my bumpers there when they're finished modifying.

    TJM RB8 onto my 80

    Having played with the front TJM Type 15 and realised there is a lot of work involved, I thought I'd offer up the rear bumper to see if the same amount of work is required. This Rear is again off a 105 and came as a good deal (which is getting worse as less of it fits :roll: ). Bits I found...

    Window winders

    Was the 80 ever fitted with manual window winding mechanisms? Checked Toyo for my truck - no. Checked Partzone for US spec - no, somewhat obviously for a US market. Toyo seems to suggest the Euro/JDM GX models may be fitted with manuals both front and rear with Elec as an option. The manual...

    Salt and corrosion....

    As I have been laid down under the back of the 80 today with a spanner or two, the dirt that fell on my face, in my eye and in my mouth reminded me about how much salt was put on the roads last winter. The dirt still tastes very salty indeed so if you haven't already done it, I strongly...

    105 Series TJM Type 15 onto an 80 - Maybe!

    As I asked the question on the 100 board the other day... I don't know whether the 100 Series pattern TJM Type 15 front bumper and bar will fit on the 80 and whether it's the same as the 105 either.... Anyway consensus was as it's a 105 bumper, it wouldn't fit a 100 but might with mods go on...

    TJM Bumpers - 105, will they fit a std 100?

    Hello all of you in 100 series land... I managed to obtain a TJM Type 15 Steel front bumper and bar (stickered as not suitable for Air bag fitted cars) and a TJM RB8 rear bumper from a 105 series vehicle with a view of fitting them to my 80 series. They weren't expensive and came in a job lot...

    So how did we all end up over here....?

    Now I don't want to start anything untoward, but I wondered what went on to find us all on a different forum. I know BAT21 had a few issues about some links and some threads on 'another website' but... And then, all of a sudden, it went a bit quiet... Was there a catalyst? Was it on the cards...
