Hi ,
I am in The middle of a 80 series restoration and am hanlving trouble locating parts, reading the forums tells me this is the norm, does any1 on here know where I would locate 2 wings, 2 inner arch liners( the fellas that bolt inside the shape of the wheel arch, 4 brake dust covers
Thank you.
 
Wings are readily available from Toyota, I bought a pair recently £680 inc VAT. I don't know about the other parts probably all available from Mr T.
 
Thank you for your quick reply, sorry I am new to this forum, I will look for mr t
 
You could try Garry at 80 breaker... They would be used parts, But considering the Price of New?????? Tel 07973 109420.... He normally has adds on ebay but he seems to have Vanished :confusion-shrug:
 
Thank you, I have been looking for him alright but having no luck. He has very mixed reviews too:sweatsmile::sweatsmile::sweatsmile:
 
You wouldn’t have a number handy for the Toyota dealer where you got the wings? There is none available at all to Toyota Ireland.

01909 488800 ask for parts. I got 2 pairs from there recently. Its in Worksop Notts.
 
Gentleman thank you, I tried here this morning for wings, inner arches, quarter panel repairs and brake dust covers and all that’s available to them is 2 rear dust covers!!:coldsweat:
 
Keep searching Ebay, there is someone in Europe selling repair panels for various Cruisers otherwise I'd get checking round specialist breakers in Australia who could crate what you want. No one ever said restoring a Landcruiser was a cheap undertaking.
 
if the republic of ireland is classed as a different market by toyota, maybe worth trying a main dealer in northern ireland.
 
Thanks lads, I’ve tried looking up and down e bay and have e mailed a couple of company’s in Poland that seem to do repair panels for every Toyota ever made except the 80 series. I wonder with a bit of re jigging would sills and quarter repair panels of a 100 series work if I’m badly stuck.?
 
Yes I have tried Toyota in Northern Ireland and they are supposed to ring me back so going to try again tomorrow. Thank you.
 
Megazip shows them available in Japan at around $700 each (ouch), clearly you'll pick up carriage and import charges bit might be a possible route if you can't source in UK / Ireland.

If you're not having success with UK dealers, try FRF Toyota in Haverfordwest (01437 766841) Paul on the parts desk has always been super helpful - if Toyota Japan still stock it, he seems to be able to get it. Helps if you can give him the part number (which you can lift from Megazip)
 
80breaker is definitely active on eBay but I think has changed his trading name. He's got parts advertised ATM
 
Thank you, yes I have rang Toyota ni and they can’t see any on the system for the uk. I have found the bits in Japan apart from front wings but the budget is t stretching that far yet! :sweatsmile: €3000 for bits not including duty or other charges and wait 6+ weeks for them . I might try 80breaker, has any1 bought stuff off him, on the I h8 mud forums there is a lot of complaints about him? Sending wrong parts or bad parts and not answering phone or e mails.
 
I've seen a fair few posts saying "don't deal" relating to Gary at 80breaker but my experience has been good. I've bought a fair few bits from him. Comms have always been good, parts have arrived promptly and good used quality. The only issue is his pricing is high - occasionally higher than new, but then I just buy new!
But, if your budget stretches to new OEM, try Paul at FRF Haverfordwest - in my experience if they can be got he will get them. He has imported non UK stock parts from Japan for me in the past
 
Thanks a million that is good to know I must go and ring them and see how I get on. Gentleman

sounds to me like they are being lazy tbh.
tell them to try harder..

large body panels from japan etc tend not to be cost effective. plus there is a high probability of possible damage unless they are crated.
