Good write up Sam Cheers

Does it normally need replacing?

What's the one on top of the airbox? Sorry Karl, wrong title...

Thanks mate, I'll see if I can find some

I was under the car yesterday checking things and noticed an ATF leak from the nearside engine/gearbox join. I was wondering if it could be fixed with a clean and sealant from the outside? I'll post a pic when its on the ramp. Cheers

I don't think the MAF sensor is iffy, but I'm on 150,000+ miles so I'll replace it. What are the usual MAF sensor iffy performance issues? What improvement might I get if I replace it? Seems an easy quick job to replace? Cheers

I'm dropping the Dobinsons project,no one wants to supply out of Australia. I'll use West Coast Offroad for an Ironman 2'' lift kit with Foam Cell shocks. West Coast have the experience to help me choose the right kit and help with any problems. Cheers

Did anyone on here ever buy any Dobinsons kit in the UK? Cheers

Good website but only for Australia deliveries.

Get this from time to time,what's it mean? Cheers

Well done Mr. and Mrs.Sam! You two don't need an exercise class after that,watch some crap TV and eat chocolate laced with Ibruprofen...

120's normally have 265/65 R17s Dunlop Grandtek's,not a good tyre IMO. I hope the Falkens are decent, good price.

I can't find one mate I've sent Dobinsons a message so we'll see.

I've heard EFS are good, I'm fancying a Dobinsons lift kit to replace my Old Man Emu set,it's good on the road i.e reduced roll but offroad it's harsh.

It's looking like if you want Dobinsons you have to import from Australia...

Having trouble finding a Dobinsons suspension supplier in the UK. Any ideas? Cheers

Can anyone explain why common rail diesel injectors are more noisy and vibey when the engine's cold? Cheers

The tracks in the Algarve can be rocky,full of rocks and rocks on rocks mate,my bashplate has been well bashed,makes a nice donk sound tho'...

Finally found a company that answers emails promptly and good prices too.

Thanks mate,do injectors always have to be replaced as a set of four or can you just replace one errant injector?

Bought this Asifir sump guard over 10 years ago,thick aluminum plate,fits perfectly,it'll last longer than the car...

Emailed Charles Francis Ltd. but no reply.Couldn't navigate Amayama,Yam6 or Toyodiy so I tried Partsouq,good website and easy to use,seems pricy tho' ? I think that's for one injector?

Thanks for that lads,I think my LC3 120 is more my cup of tea. I just wish it looked better,i.e more like a 105...

Good idea Shayne,I'll probably buy 4 Ironman foam cell shocks,keep the springs and see how I go. Always nice to have your input,cheers mate

Good video,I miss wet rocks and a bit of mud. Nice selection of trucks and some decent drivers...

RIP Chas

I know some members report no rubbing and some say slight rubbing on the front wheel arches at full lock.Exactly where do they rub and would a bit of trimming sort the problem? Cheers

Back to basics appeal; Solid front axle,split barn door,rugged looks and seems like less to go wrong...

OME mate (Old Man Emu)

Portugal for the winter,Jersey for the summer. Does yours have the split rear door? What's a 1HD hundy?

I like everything about the 105 but does it need more power?

Does anyone know if there's an identification mark on my OME springs,so I can find out the spring rates? Cheers

Just finished my winter reading subject.I'm not that keen on fiction,real life experiences I find entertaining and useful. I read all the archive 120 threads from page 66 to 1,it kept me busy. Great stories,information and craic. Well done all of you! Cheers, Bill

looks good in silver mate,hope it's a good one...

Only used it once a month to keep it sweet or for when the 120 was having it's annual service.I had a lot of fun with that car but the 120 suited my needs better.It's the only car I never lost money on which was a nice goodbye present! Thanks for all the help on here over the last 8 years. Cheers

Was the 105 only sold without a turbo? Cheers

Excellent thread Sam,well done. Not enough detail tho',what colour socks do you need to wear while fitting the injectors?

Don't open the boxes mate,just look at them and cuddle them. Anticipation's sometimes better than reality and retail therapy is addictive...

I was looking at the Charles Francis Int. Ltd. site Rob,I couldn’t navigate it at all...

Can't find 120 injectors on this site that AndyCLomas recommended,can anyone find them? Cheers

Does the small black hose operate the EGR butterfly valve? I'll work out how to hilight it if necessary. Does it operate the BValve by vacuum? Cheers

I couldn't find anything Land Cruiser with this link Andy?

If I can find mine... Got it; JTEBZ29J000109639
