Just a little reminder that I can bring anything bought from this thread to the show on Saturday only - this will help me plan what to pack: https://www.landcruiserclub.net/community/threads/make-me-an-offer-many-parts-for-sale.150743/

For those not enjoying Google tracking their every move this browser is getting better and better https://duckduckgo.com/ . Tim Berners Lee is looking to build a "new Internet" called solid [massive simplification]...

Here's a neutral article looking at the pros and cons and as Rob says, none of it is law yet. https://www.wired.co.uk/article/what-is-article-13-article-11-european-directive-on-copyright-explained-meme-ban . Having come from an content-producing industry that was destroyed by Google I always...

Black widow rack sold and exhaust piece sold.

Water filtration system sold.

Next is a Royal gas cooker in working order with mounting bracket [plus a fire extinguisher mount on that bracket] https://www.kiangazi.com/Overland/Toyota-for-sale/n-jDz2LP/i-xssdFrF/A and https://www.kiangazi.com/Overland/Toyota-for-sale/n-jDz2LP/i-Rzg5KzN/A and...

Hydraulic jack - I think it is 3 tons but the label has pretty much ripped off - don't have the handle anymore. https://www.kiangazi.com/Overland/Toyota-for-sale/n-jDz2LP/i-8gqMHTc/A Separate to the jack the PO had a spare Dobinson front and rear shock for a 2" lift. This will only impact...

Next up is the PO's water filtration system. It was working when we got it but has been sitting around for a few years. There is a brand new replacement ceramic filter. The Shurflo pump has a pre-filter screwed in as well. https://www.kiangazi.com/Overland/Toyota-for-sale/n-jDz2LP/i-gpNsGjD/A

Two unused rear springs made by Ridepro for Darren at Autocraft. No longer made. They were sent to me in error as I needed +400kg springs so these were only fitted once [gave me about a 2.5 inch lift or so]. I'm chasing the specs in Oz but may not get them. I know they are better than stock but...

The PO fabbed a cubby box for centre console use but we removed it because it was too close to the auto low and we wanted a fridge there. It's big and well made but may just be better utilised as a secure storage box or perhaps a console in a manual. You can see the mounting holes in it but note...

Four National Luna switched lights with two mounted on fabricated brackets and the other with a long DIN extension. Pretty weather resistant and low power but NOT LED. https://www.kiangazi.com/Overland/Toyota-for-sale/n-jDz2LP/i-vJntkg6/A Also these two steel fabricated pockets for free - the...

OEM turbo pipe removed when I added Safari Intercooler. https://www.kiangazi.com/Overland/Toyota-for-sale/n-jDz2LP/i-9XH9bz2/A

Next up is caster correction bushes for a 3 inch left from Ridepro Rox shocks [now owned by Ateco Equipment Australia]. I went for drop boxes instead of the caster correction bushes. https://www.kiangazi.com/Overland/Toyota-for-sale/n-jDz2LP/i-DWCKqNL/A

Next up are extended brake lines that came with my 3 inch lift kit from Australia. I already have extended brake lines so these we not used at all. https://www.kiangazi.com/Overland/Toyota-for-sale/n-jDz2LP/i-n8nkcMK/A

Sorry to disappoint a bit on the Kaymar but these are the plates that go though the wheel so you can lock them onto the rear wheel carrier. These are for OEM steel wheels - they sent to me in error as I have VX alloys so they haven't been used...

Next up is the National Luna fridge mounting plate for a Weekender 52L fridge. Description is here: http://www.nationalluna.com.au/fridge-mounting-bases/ and as you can see in my picture the factory paint job has peeled off beautifully but the mount is solid...

Next item is a Black Widow cargo storage tray for the rear compartment plus the divider that goes between this tray and installed drawers. I'm keeping the vertical cargo barrier. You can see a similar installation here: Pic for the trays are here - not sure if all of the mounting bolts are...

Next item is an aluminium cover for the rear tray plus bolts. We had good use of this but we've now added storage to the rear tray. https://www.kiangazi.com/Overland/Toyota-for-sale/n-jDz2LP/i-2ppb9kK/A

JAS I think you may have an ok argument using that line as there is some talk of customs overstepping their remit a bit - see this thread https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/imported-cars-and-asbestos.550026/ . However have a look at gtamerica's experience with two classic cars and the...

Jas no, Toyota didn't respond. Having spoken to a number of industry figures it seems by the mid to late 90s there was almost a certain chance there was none in them. However, that isn't good enough for the Aussie Border Force. I've found a company in the UK that will test the truck. I've been...

The water tank has been sold. More items will be posted tonight including 2/3 of a cargo barrier, caster correction bushes, Kaymar accessory, brake lines, fabbed console etc.

No offers yet? Noone interested? Next up on offer is a FRONT RUNNER EXPEDITION 4X4 CAMPING WATER TANK 48L VERTICAL MOUNT DESIGN https://www.kiangazi.com/Overland/Toyota-for-sale/n-jDz2LP/i-fZTpSTG/A will need an internal clean.

I'm having a large clear out of kit and essentially, before I put anything on ebay I want to see if anyone here would like anything. Essentially I just want you to PM me an offer and if I like it I will sell to you. Some of the kit is quite heavy or large but I can take it to the Adventure...

Stumbled on this guy’s playlist. Some are very basic and he’s got an interesting presentation style but there is some decent footage in amongst all of them. Worth a look. He could use the views too. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAGJGfo-N70swo4oi03DINAgV7pGYLKkk

Just to close this one off, http://soarvalleysteelboats.co.uk made a fully bespoke shape [one side indented to fit snug around cargo barrier] food-grade stainless tank all for around £200 which, given they added a recessed outlet, large threaded inlet and breather, I thought was excellent value...

[0]=false&fR[live][0]=true&fR[type][0]=5&hFR[subjects_equipment.lvl1][0]=Wildlife%20Photography']NHBS is good too - not high street but very good customer service.

Grant you sound very close to me and I’m sending the box for Shayne so pm me your address and I’ll drop it off at a time that suits you.

Is the camping area 2WD accessible? My truck is in the process of being cleaned to ship to Oz so it is on a strict "no moving" regimen. When I say accessible I mean I'd like to drive in and out rather than get winched out :icon-biggrin:

Welcome Damien. You'll be fine - this one was 22 years :thumbup:

A mate recommends https://www.facebook.com/lockedingarage/ or https://www.facebook.com/ReaperPerformanceDiesel/

Australia now has zero tolerance on asbestos making any sort of import fraught. It seems as though the UK banned most asbestos very early but white asbestos [chrysotile] in 1999 around the time the 100 series appeared. Brakes, brake lining, clutch and gaskets are the areas of concern on classic...

Thanks all. We'll see if it works with Shayne and if not Moggy is next. I did post a video in the initial post - very informative :). Also here's the installation guide - i don't have the remote unit described in the guide - you don't need it but APB sells them...

Guessing half price wasn't of interest to anyone. I will stick on eBay but I'm happy for anyone to make me an offer by PM before it goes on eBay.

My POs had disconnected the OEM alarm for their Africa trip for that very reason. I fitted an after-market when I got it [for insurance]. They used a steering wheel lock and a U-lock around the automatic T-bar. I've added shatterproof film on the windows. I think it is better to as for PMs on...

Used condition and in good working order. These guys explain the setup better than I can: I think the guy who removed it may have cut the wires to the front battery so I'm throwing the cables in but you may need new cables for the long run depending on where you put it. Also throwing in the set...

You may want to contact these guys in Holland as a couple of years ago they had one or two for sale. I think they have also been to Lincomb in the past so others may have a contact name.

And Google :tongueclosed: Rich. I realise I should have titled this thread "What part do each of you use to stop your water systems emptying spontaneously?" as I can't imagine I'm the first to add a tap to their truck. I just need two little taps I can add to hoses for filtered water in gulping...

Can anyone suggest a supplier or two for small metal taps for our water system in our truck? Most RV suppliers have huge taps and we are looking for something much smaller, similar to the sorts of taps you get on beverage dispensers but more hardy.

Not sure if Terrain Tamer is more pre-greased rather than having a grease nipple?

Mad Matt is trying to build his subscriber base on Youtube like a lot of Aussies but unlike a lot of Aussies he's making them about an 80 Series rather than the ubiquitous [Ronny Dahl] 70s or Gavin Gillett's 200 series. The key is that Matt takes requests in his comments for videos so if you...

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2004-Left-Hand-Drive-Toyota-Land-Cruiser-105-series/323279187365?hash=item4b44f0eda5:g:Ig4AAOSw0O9bDcup Julian at Overland Cruisers is selling this one and it looks tidy.

May be of interest.

We got the Indel B TB15 as it has a slightly bigger capacity and good reviews. We didn't get it from amazon though.

Try also these guys https://nearlywildcamping.org/ as one-third of the sites allow vehicles. It's an interesting model if they can open up more sites. I reckon if this organisation had a push of people wanting sites for campers they'd chase more too.

They did https://www.landcruiserclub.net/community/threads/nene-overland-into-administration.149781/#post-1479188

That's why I posted in the Lounge :laughing: . I'm just interested in the tech.

My Mazda 3 just had the check engine light come on so I've been looking at the Autel AutoLink AL319 OBD2 Scanner which looks a versatile entry-level device. Does anybody rate it? While looking I found a lot of Bluetooth devices with apps - all look interesting but each with pitfalls. Which ones...
