Regretfully selling my HJ45, due to circumstances. It will be missed but I have had to make the difficult choice to sell this and keep another vehicle close to my heart. Scroll down for images, video in here. This is an Australian import, brought into the UK in 2016. The first registered...

Right, I'm back after a long hiatus from this fine community. I have been silent and not been posting for a few years now. This wasn't by choice, but due to life getting in the wayand lack of spare time to spend time on the internet and typing uninteresting post :) As the title suggests, I am...

Hi All, Been away for a while but I am still trying to bring the HJ60 back to its former glory in the background. One of the item on my to do list is to get a new identification plate from Toyota as mine is missing from the bulkhead. However before they can issue me with the new...

Hi Chaps, My indicator relay got a bit hot today and I have no turn signals on the truck. Typical timing now that my other car is up on axle stand waiting for a new clutch. Anybody happens to a have spare one I could purchase? Part # 81980-3660 Driving around Birminghan, indicators are...

Hi all, I need to lower the spare wheel on the HJ60. But sadly the tool kit is missing from the truck. So is there anybody on here, preferably local who could lend me the tool set to lower the spare? I need it for next Saturday, so would be in position to return it on Sunday. Alternatively...

Can anybody recommend a grade oil manual transmission oil for my HJ60? The Toyota service/workshop manual only specifies "GL4 or GL5". Same question goes for the transfer box and differentials as the service manual is being equally vague on those too. Many thanks, Nick.

I think I have identified my cold start issue to be due to failed glow plugs. Both glow plug relays checked ok but I have no continuity on glow plugs, at least on # 1,2 and 3. I have not bothered checking the other 3 plugs because I think the plugs fitted were the wrong ones to start with...

Hi All, I thought I'd follow process in the reverse order i.e. 1. reply a thread, 2. create a build thread and 3. eventually introduce myself: Name: Nick Sabrazat Cruiser: HJ60, 1990, GX, manual 287,000 miles and climbing Plans: Rolling restoration with hopefully a few improvements along the...

Hi all, Having recently fulfilled a boy’s dream, I thought I’d start a thread on the “monster truck” as it has now been nicknamed. I was originally looking for a Defender 110, but after hunting for a decent one for the past 2 years, I decided to refocus on an old school Landcruiser instead...
