Anyone have an LD28 Flywheel, the closer to southland the better, Pulled the engine out of my Kingswood and it only has a flywheel and clutch for a 2 litre in it which explains why it slipped every chance it got, especially with a turbo hanging off the motor the clutch shop was surprised it lasted t...

yes the manifold will be coming off when I get a chance as I took out the air flow sensor to clean it and the whole sensor was packed full with crap so id hate to think how much build up is in the intake

cheers keep up the good build

hi

Is that egr gizmo just for pajeros or can it fit on other vehicles, I just ripped the egr off my ranger and now trying to sort the check engine light

Awesome build by the way, always interesting to see some more modern vehicle builds for a change

Got to talking to the guys at Novus in Winton about it one day and they use piano wire to poke through between the windscreen and frame, then just pull it back and forth to cut the glue but the wire does heat up and break if you work it to hard. Have tried it myself on a Puegot windscreen and it wor...

Is anyone wrecking an 1990 80 series that has the full sway bar setup as mine came without one and im getting over the body roll

closer to southland the better thanks

Mate couldn't agree with you more on the manual conversion as instead of a conversion I just sold my auto 80 and bought a manual one but its great to know if the starter craps out or anything else a manual is a lot easier to get home, but that said the auto was great when following behind another tr...

hey guys I bought a Duke 9000 pound winch off trademe and finally got to use it today

The thing is bloody awesome, pulled out my mates surf multiple times easily and also managed to get out a swb safari aswell.

If anyones looking at them id have to say its great value

olielux

Thanks guys bulbar is built and mounted on truck, just need to get it dirty and test out the winch

olielux

Hey guys

Just wanting to ask if anyone has done the tracks, what are they like and do I need to ask anyone for permission to go in there?

Thanks Olie

olielux

thanks for all the help guys, there going on my 80 series landcruiser and will eventually end up attached to side rails down to rocksliders and to the deck so was thinking 2 inch would(46mm) would work for everything,

I might have to start a build thread as there is a lot planned for it

olielux

do you find the 3mm sting enough and how hard was it to work with?

Am wanting to do a sort of copy of an XROX bar but with headlight hoops, have just ordered a new cheep winch for it that will eventually end up under the deck and replaced with a better one after the ute chop

cheers

olielux

hey guys have decided to have a go at making my bullbars as the ones I want are abot two grand, and I miss my welder.

Just wanting to know what sort of tube people have used, am thinking abot 2 inch diameter would be a good size?

olielux

Another thing you could use for flares is baler belt, its holds really well and depending on what baler it came out of you can get a fairly wide belt. A local tractor dealers workshop could have some old belts out the back, that's how I got mine

olielux

Was driving the 80 the other night and a car came towards me so went to low beam which worked fine but when I flicked back to high beam I had no lights. After a lot of testing I have worked out low beam is working fine and when I pull the stalk to flash highbeam it only works on the two outside ligh...

Diesel 80 series land cruiser

Comfortable, Good on fuel, plenty of torque for towing and a shit load of space,

Really capable off road and just as good on road

Just my 2 cents

Did day trip into Mavora up to boundary hut, Great to see it repaired and back to its former glory but the idiots that wrecked it have really damaged the reputation of 4wders. The visitors book is not that encouraging (idiots wrecking it for the rest of us) Hope they're caught and the book chucked a...

olielux

yup I am interested, what brand do you stock and do you stock mounts to drop the sway bars

olielux

Also as I have rocksliders, deck and bulbar I don't want to bodylift it

olielux

Hi everyone I am currently running a 2 inch lift in my 80 series and after going to 315 tyres they start to rub when on the flexing so am wanting to go a little higher. As it is my daily I am not wanting to go to a 4 inch as I think anything more would be to much. I have seen kits like this for sale...

hi Just bought a runva 13.5xf and am wanting to know if I would be able to mount it on a 90 degree angle to the front plate of my bullbars as the truck originally had a Warn High Mount ( kept by previous owner :( :( :( ) The runva shares the same mounting hole demensions so it would bolt straight on...

I have 315s on mine and they have affected performance much but as I do a lot of towing, mainly the boat and hay rakes ive been tossing up whether it would be worth it too
