Hi everyone,
I have posted a few times but not introduced myself yet.
I bought a 93 VX 80 last September, first land cruiser i've owned. She will be based here in the UK for now, but future plans will be to export her to Cape Town where i now live.
When i bought her she failed MOT on rotten rear shock absorber mounts, had to get a 2nd hand axle casing and swap it out with all the running gear off the old axle. Since then i've been busy with front swivel overhauls and big end bearings etc. Must say its pleasurable being able to work on these older vehicles, nowadays with modern cars you almost daren't touch them!
Cheers all.
Tim
