My poor long suffering KZE 3.0 has suddenly developed head gasket failure or a cracked head or block.... Do I just sell as is or do i fix it, I've just won 2 large contracts so I have no time spare for the next 6months! Do they crack heads normally or only if they are "cooked"

Hi all im hunting for a RHD 70 series steering box if anyone has got one?

Lows Had to take the LC for its MOT today Day got worse when I had to drive this to a corner of a site I got called to But things got much better when I collected the LC with a fresh MOT :icon-cool:

After over 2 weeks the insurance companies glass fitters have source and fitted a new screen in my truck. turned up with a 90 series screen first, then a 80.......... MOT booked tomorrow now:icon-confused:

After my truck died, self healed and then died again I started digging into the electronics and they're purpose on the pump. Its all actually quite simple, in comparison to a common rail oil burner (I'm an electrical engineer so my simple might not be everyone's!) anyway while hunting on the...

Had a trip out in the LC earlier, (fish and chips at the beach!) Anyway outside the chippy dropped the wife off and switched it off. Moments later it wouldn't strat :thumbdown: it would turn over but no bang? Only tool i had with me was my leatherman so I had a quick look see checked...

Had a little rub against a tree this morning, while on a short cut delivering my daughter to gym club! I think my fleet policy has screen cover but the excess is silly and im guessing a screen isnt that expensive...? So I need a windscreen, any ideas on the best supplier?

The MOT on my 70 ran out a couple of weeks ago and due to a manic few weeks of work I haven't done anything about it But this week vehicles have been dropping like flies so I booked it in and without any prep it passed without advisorys :thumbup: Just makes me wonder what I would have had to...

while looking under the lid of my truck today i had a thought, bin the air con... it is not working and i expect it needs more than a re-gas so i thought convert the air con compressor to a air compressor or fit a hydraulic pump and the milemarker hydro winch i have kicking about...

What oil should be in the transfer box of my kzj71? Also I changed the axle oils too and was suprised how little oil they hold 2.4l ish?

I took the cruiser trialing on Sunday I'm impressed with how well it works in the woods, but I didn't stay for the whole day as to be competitive you need to lean on the odd tree :thumbdown: I removed the fog light on the first section :lol: and gave the O/S side step some creative...

I have here free to collector most of a exhaust system from a 2.4 I think? Its a stainless system.

Because I could officer

How heavy is my kzj? I've been running around with the trailer this morning and was thinking how heavy the cruiser is I know what the cruiser and trailer weigh but can't remember what the trailer weighs... If I remember the trailer weight correctly the cruiser is around the 1900Kg Not bad I...

Now my lift is all fitting and I've been blasting the LC around now I'm very surprised how little the steering has changed. I've been trying all sorts of manouveres at all sorts of speeds and I can't find any issues so are caster correction bushes necessary? The only difference I can feel is...

I have started looking at fitting my ironman kit tonight, well I've pulled the rear springs out and the ones supplied look like they would fit but are going to give a big lift Basically it's hard going to compress them to the free length of the standard springs! They have more coils and are a...

i have on my pile of "stuff" beside the garage a set of 16x8 ali rims They are aftermarket ones off a shogun but don't have adequate offset for my 70 I think they would fit a 90 or other IFS yota, if no one wants them i'll weigh them in on the next scrap yard trip!

I've never been happy with the exhaust on my 70 and a couple of weeks ago it was rattling again so I cut it off! So just a front pipe was too noisy! I bought a cherry bomb type "silencer" fitted it and that made minimal difference, so I made and fitted a flow diverted / noise attenuator which...

So people of land cruiser knowledge what is the best way to give my cruiser a little lift? or and whats the most economic :? thanks all mike
