Thanks Dervis - saw the Febest write-up too. My back is pretty full though so I'm gauging where the body mounts will come up in the back as I may only need to pull the drawers withoutout removing the mounting frame etc.

Actually, I believe these are the parts. Posting for others to use. So if anyone has advice on the rear most body mounts, that would be great.

Hi everyone, I noticed a few people have replaced their body mounts from time to time and I wanted to ask if anyone has the part numbers for the rubber/washer/bolts? Also, I wanted to ask on the rearmost body mounts, I have a drawer system fitted - does this all have to come out to change the...

Hope everyone is safe and well. Looking for some pointers. My 10A Gauge fuse will only blow in reverse and typically not when I move the automatic transmission lever from park to reverse - more when i actually begin reversing. It does not blow in normal drive conditions, only reverse. I tried...

Towpack, that was a revelation, confirmed by looking at the starting wiring diagram. Thank you! Now I just need to work out why, occasionally the indicator or the power windows blow the gauge fuse. And buy some 10A fuses in the meantime!

Interesting issue today. I was stuffing about with the driver's window while leaving the house. I know in operation, according to the manual, it can suck up to 14 amps. Went down town and parked up and couldn't start the truck. Could hear the solenoids clicking in on ignition and the starter...

Guys - so helpful as usual! Nick, your bullbar dips in an interesting way to expose that sensor - helpful though. Mine goes straight across. I think I now have a "freed" air temperature sensor.

Just had my air con condensor replaced in Oz and have excellent aircon again. However, when i got the truck back i noticed this sitting on the bullbar. The guy who didn't said he'd never seen one on an 80. I looked up the part number and it is temperature sensor Toyota Land Cruiser HDJ 80...

Reconnecting Clive - I got it out ok but I'm trying to put the hard washer tank back in and getting the hand in to reconnect that hose is proving difficult as the clip keeps knocking it off and it is difficult to sit flush again.

I can see my target in this thread https://www.landcruiserclub.net/community/threads/removing-the-front-wings-on-a-land-cruiser-80-series.145412/ but I'm a bit nervous about the "fiddly" and "rusty" descriptions as I am not looking to create extra work - already had a bolt snap on the innocuous...

Not sure as the front has the rear motor, the front motor and the lights motor [I think] plus tubes running off. Therefore the back one [which is much larger] is a mystery.:think:
