    My Landcruiser, on ebay

    Im afraid not - with a very very heavy heart I sold her yesterday morning for £9500. I have a deposit, and the rest is being transferred tomorrow, I have never agonised over selling a car as much as I am over this one.

    My Landcruiser, on ebay

    if you read the first part of the advert, you'll understand why. I half-killed myself last saturday too, sorting the sidesteps, windows and cleaning her! She is such a lovely truck. This decision is torture.

    Central Locking stoped working

    Can somebody point me in the right direction; Yesterday I decided to sort my woeful leccy windows out, so, one by one starting with drivers door I set to work. Spray grease on mechanisms, and silicone lubricant on the window runners. Then, contact cleaner on plug connections. I also washed...

    My Landcruiser, on ebay

    Update: (because I've had work to do!) I had a long chat with Paul at West Coast. Basically the last two years have been full of caring for my mother who has 30% brain damage so I bought the LC as I fell in love with it, but besides the boot install and a service have never really either used...

    My Landcruiser, on ebay

    we have an explanation........thanks to Paul at West Coast This vehicle is fitted with a kit from Australia so the centre diff lock button is effectively the 4wd button. I have never yet driven her in 4wd as my life, has significantly changed as the opportunity hasn't been there. The transfer...

    My Landcruiser, on ebay

    Well please tell me how she drives beautifully in either setting. And please tell me why there is advice from WestCoast regarding engaging 4wd at least once a month or so to ensure correct lubrication, If I am wrong Im happy to be corrected, but this LC works and drives beautifully in either...

    you don't need to................. It isn't nessessary on these vehicles. They do not need a 2WD modification to the transfer box.

    My Landcruiser, on ebay

    Less drag, it is simple. No, of course you don't have to lock the centre diff. If you removed the front prop the front diff would still turn with the front wheels. This is the same principle, it disconnects the drag and weight of the front wheels from the driven train. Freewheeling hubs are...

    Because it saves a lot of fuel! The front hubs are manually switchable. The mechanicals are still in 4WD, it is just that the front wheels are disconnected. It really isn't that unusual. However, it does make her slightly quicker and a darn sight less thirsty around town. The bonnet was lifted...

    Boot Build - rear storage - and bed!

    Thanks, I will post some more pictures up in the week. The wiper motor failed yesterday at 6am (in the rain) so had to leave her parked at work. I'll post up some pics of the front seats but you wont see much because this is how I did it... The standard seats I cut the subframes off - then cut...

    Boot Build - rear storage - and bed!

    Hello! I entered into the world of LC ownership in August. Having browsed various forums it always struck me that many people are obsessed with boot builds - well, it rubbed off on me. I'd never done a 'boot build' before and so figured Id jump in and have a go. There was no actual purpose...
