I used to own this, sold it about 5 years ago, it was a very tidy one with almost no rust & all the jobs done too, eg BEB's, CV's etc. It's cheap as well! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-Land-Cruiser-VX80-Limited/183198173636?hash=item2aa77649c4:g:f5sAAOSwuWJaykAO

I'm putting my current JDM HDJ-81 up for sale due to recently acquiring another mint 81 that I'll be keeping for good, I can't keep two! A mechanically good JDM Spec 80 12v, low mileage 149k (ish) Snow Edition Vx Limited so has the 3 Difflocks, Alcantara Interior, 5 seater. Has a few...

Found a neat way to stop the hubs filling with water so readily when wading & or keeping them nicely greased up. On the inside front of each hub knuckle is a square threaded bung, simply remove, drill & tap them & screw in some grease port zirks. Might take a good few squirts to get them full...

This popped up for sale similar spec to an old one I had a JDM VX Limited it's as original & mint as you will ever find inside & out!. No rust & as far as I can tell is completely original apart from wheels & stereo. Has a winch cover, but no winch appears ever fitted. It genuinely is...

I'm after the cover & catches for the nearside rear boot storage compartment in grey for an early 80 (think they are all the same). My new purchase is missing one. Happy to pay for a nice one posted. Need the catch parts too. Who's got one going spare?

I had the dreaded auto box shenanigans, would pull away in 2nd only & go to 3rd but & no lock up. Pulled the codes & got a 63 & 64. Two of the solenoids were duff in the transmission. However one was just blocked with crud, cleaned the valve parts & its working fine again. Second one is dead...

I have up for grabs a rear & mid section exhaust system for HDJ80/81 its in good used fair condition, looks fairly recent. Collection from N Dorset only far too big to post. Its in two sections. £60 collected SP8 4TN 07970642129 Declan

I have spent the past week (or so) playing with Bosch VE fuel pumps, the same as fitted to 80's (though they are Jap built Zexel's I think) & I now know all about their inner workings :) I am building a "hybrid" pump for my Hymer camper as my god it's slow, 90bhp allegedly from a POS Lucas...

I've been tasked with finding an Amazon for a good friend, last of the 4.2TD's manual or auto so 2000-2006 etc is good, needs to be lowish miles (for a cruiser anyway) clean & tidy. I'm being paid to find him a nice one & I can happy to travel anywhere. The chap who now wants one was looking at...

Well it's one of those jobs I had been meaning to do for ages, the bumper corners on the 80's are in my opinion pants. And I am loathed to spend loads of money on a flashy rear bumper of the Floodbasher, which is really what we have it for getting my wife to work in the regular floods we get...

A friend of mine mentioned our local metal recycling place have taken in what would appear by the description to be a "Tidy'ish" 40 Series lwb pickup, I know little else as yet but they have put it aside. Will find out more during the week but is it something anybody is looking for?? If so happy...

Right, I like campers, along-with my 80 I also own a Bongo 4WD, which is rather an ideal sort of base vehicle its a Poptop full camper conversion one. However there is one issue, I need to tow my boat, its quite big & well the trailer is bigger bit. The Bongo does it rather well but technically...

Got a later auto 80 here with the electronic autobox with a flashing OD light. Pulled the codes & have 42 - TPS & 64 - Speed sensor not being seen. I'm assuming its some dodgy plug or wiring going on, has anybody had similar & managed to fix it? I'll pull the loom first to check it over but...

I'm after some big'ish tyres 35" 315-285/75/16's or similar ideally 16" diameter but can do 15" if so. Got cash, can collect almost anywhere. What you got going folks?

Looks like a nice project, another one lurking too http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/toyota-landcruiser-pickup/1074260512

I have just aquired a JDM 80 with the rear wheel carrier, I plan on using it for towing & the rear wheel carrier could be a bit of a pain. So does anybody want a rear wheel carrier kit complete except for bodywork internal structure in the rear quarter. So thats: Carrier, exgternal...

I have just gotten back from Belfast to Dorset with an HDJ81 that I spotted on Gumtree:happy-bouncyred: With all the difflocks, fridge, fooking noisy knobblies :lol: & a few other extras. Needs a damn good clean & some transmission oil apart from that it seems fine. Never ever again am I...

I'm posting this here as I'm sure someone might be selling one? or thinking of selling... I have advised a friend that an older 100 series is a better bet than a newer Disco, amazing that people think Disco3's must obviously be reliable :ugeek: so now I have to source him an LC :eusa-whistle...

What is safe? Got through up to the bonnet this morning to the horse yard but its gotten deeper! Will be stuck here for Christmas at the current rate Its a borrowed standard 80

I'm after a drivers side window motor 07970642129 Declan

I am thinking of selling my HDJ81, I hardly use it anymore & I'd be happy seeing it going to a new home, its that or I stick it in long term storage. More pics below It's been converted to a camper/sleeper as this has been my race car support vehicle for the past 5 years, its a basic set up...

My LC80 has been seeing less & less use lately, only use it for towing the boat or car trailer if I can. However for many years I have been after one of them "rare eco cars" produced occasionally by manufacturers when they have a few quid spare. Always wanted a Audi A2 3L or a Mk1 Honda Insight...

I have for sale a full set of 5 Michelin LTX (M&S A/T winter syped type) tyres, these were the OE spec road biassed tyres on 80's all in excellent undamaged & all evenly worn condition, the 5th is as new & is just a tyre no rim. On 16" split rim style 6 spokes, perfect fitment for an 80 series...

I have had the pleasure of swanning about in a G-Wagon this week, shiny new one with all the trimmings. When I say shiny & new I mean still the same old one with some new shiny stuff on & in, not much has changed in 20+ years. Off road too which its not bad at... difflocks & all. They drive...

I'm after a set of four 15" tyres, what have you got? Ideally something 32" or bigger diameter A/T as opposed to M/T but open to suggestion, I can arrange collection or collect in person 07970642129 if you wanted to call me Declan

I happen to have one of these, its my spare but I'd love to aquire a full set they are 16" SSR's has anybody got any lying around they'd usually have come on imports. Happy to pay for them if available [

I hate rust, full stop can't stand the stuff. Hence my inane inability to buy UK cars & why I always choose JDM cars if I can find them. Anyway whilst drying out the carpets after the floods from a few weeks back (it was pretty deep to get to the horses) I find a small hole in the drivers side...

Found this whilst rummaging earlier, not mine - appears to have odd wheels & interior trim colours appear to not match quite right? But might be a nice one http://www4.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201245491643657

I'm forecasting snow for the UK in the next two weeks :icon-evil: Yes really!

I've always wondered, just how fast an old 80 might be, mine goes quite well, has a few tweaks to the pump but otherwise its a standard auto 12v JDM car, on 275/75/16's I'd assumed it might have the 118mph speed limiter that most Jap cars have,,,,,it doesn't!! So on a not especially long bit...

I have an 80 series bonnet here if anybody wants its, it's in Silver, has some very slight rust to the leading edge, otherwise its perfectly usable. Collection only in person from N Dorset SP8 07970642129 Declan

Over the weekend I have been servicing my mates 80 a 12v with ABS. Now this gets used for towing a race trailer (twin deck job) 3.2 Tons all up. It's last set of brake pads were Apec & quite frankly the brakes have always been shite!! It's been impoosible to set the ABS off in the dry, the tyres...

Well I was doing some underbody cleaning today & came across the little LSD sticker on my rear axle casing. So my JDM HDJ81 has an LSD diff :dance: Which might explain a few things, I was just about to do an oil service but might just pull it out & have looksy. My guess is these are a plate...

I'm after a CB radio system, now I had one as a kid 30 years ago but really know little about them. I'm looking for a kit to modify to "quell" my neighbours stereo :twisted: Apparently all I need is a CB radio, an amp & and the right aerial, though any advice welcome :| What have you got...

Thought I'd post up some pics & stuff from a trip I did back in 2005/6 as part of the Plymouth-Dakar Rally, basicly buy a cheap crappy banger & drive to Banjul in the Gambia by any means possible. When you get there the cars are sold for charity. I also did the same in 2006/7 as a guide so some...

My HDJ81 is a Jap spec one with the extra long front bumper, no idea why but it its about 10" deep. So its a squeeze getting it in my garage loosing 10" would be handy!! So having a big clearout from the garage the other day & I came across some 3" steel heavy gauge tube & thought I know I'll...

Thought i'd post up what I've been beavering away at this afternoon, I saw the other threads on the tailgate storage compartments & thought that would be handy. My truck is essentially used for race support, so always has a toolkit in it so a boot locker would be handy. Now I already have a...

Does anybody have a fusebox diagram for an HDJ81 ?? its a jap one I can't find it in the workshop manual

Those of you with manual gearboxes in your 80 series may be wondering whats in there & perhaps why they appear so lumpy & reluctant to change gear. Well as it happens they are the same gearbox as found in Supra Turbo's known as the R154, the R151 is different in ratios, input output shaft &...

I sooo want a set of these for the snow!! Spotted in Zermatt by someone on Pistonheads

This was is in my local pub car park (Red Lion at Kilmington) not seen this one before so I assume a xmas visitor, anyones on here? Looked like a camper conversion & UK registered. I did ask in the pub who's it was but no-one admitted

Check this thing out, only 4200km from new http://www.bidjdm.com/auction/k139210786

Today I've been beavering away cleaning up the alloys on my JDM 80. I polished the lips & repainted the centres, looking somewhat better than before & freshens the whole car up. Also fitted her new number plates now she's had aplate change (an old reg that is!) just needs a polish next....

I'm after a spare wheel, really not fussed what it might be so long as its 16" and vaguely original size

I'm after a 4.2td fuel pump, for some experimentation, can be dead as a dodo don't really mind so long as its cheap or free! Happy to pay some beer tokens + postage. 12v or 24v does'nt really matter. Even one in bits or even spares of one is fine. I'm looking into the tuning options on these as...

Has anybody got 1 or 2 spare 80 series wheels, I need one as spare & so does my mate. Not too fussed on condition or type & might consider a set if cheap enough. Standard 80 series size is 8" wide with 0 offset if that helps (centre face is in the centre of the wheel if you measure it) Can...

Having removed a seized up viscous unit, my inquiring mind got the better of me & my alter ego Cptanglegrinder comes to fore :D It's a completely sealed unit, there are two ball bearings on one face that are obviously the fill points for the goo inside. It's a fairly solid lump, about 10kg's &...
