Hello from CHCH

Post by jonboy80 »

Hi Guys (and ladies),

I have just recently picked up a 60 series Landcruiser that I hope to be modifying in the upcoming months. I have just done a Marks p/time kit, and removed a random panhard bar.

I was hoping to meet up with some people that would be keep for a couple of hours 4wheeling this weekend - nothing too rough as i'm currently only running 31inch A/Ts and will be bringing my 7y/o along for the ride.

Cheers,

JP

Welcome fella.
A 60 with part time kit and panhard issues???? Are you sure it isn't an 80 series?

Either way, it's all about having fun with your toys and growing capabilities and skills in conjunction (yours and your vehicle). :P
Ugly is a state of mind..... and the state of my truck!

'random panhard'...? could that be read as an 'anti sway bar' perhaps...?
