Am I being an idiot, the original 60 series wipers aren't coming off the arm, are they joined together?! I ordered a new set of wipers, the ones that come with tons of different attachments but none look the same as what I currently have! Feel free to call me names if this is a dumb question

One of the bushes went so thats been replaced and is all good! Thanks for the advice guys

I went offroading the other day and I think one of the shocks went, the usual symptoms appeared, severe rocking in crosswinds, loud banging and rattling suspension etc. I have no idea which one it could be but I think I may as well replace them all. Can anyone in Australia recommend reasonably...

So I'm having issues with my landy to start on cold mornings, when the rego was done the mechanic said it might be worth replacing the glow plugs at some point so I thought now is the best time. I've never owned an old diesel with a super glow system before but when I bought the landy the guy...

I wasn't so sure it'd work either! I drove 15km and by the time I got home the reservoir was pretty much empty so the leaks quite severe. I've order a new master, slave and pipe, thought I might as well whilst i'm working on it. I'm not 100% sure but seeing as I have a servo unit it looks as...

I managed to get it home fine just by filling up the clutch reservoir, I know not the best option but it worked. Just looking to order the new master and slave cylinders.. Do I get the master with clutch booster or without?? By the looks of it mine doesn't have a booster.

Thanks for the advice, I was doing some research today and saw a video pretty much exactly as you described so I think that’s what I’ll be doing for sure. Only problem is I’ve got to get it out of the garage tomorrow morning and I don’t have an assistant. Do you reckon if I just fill up the...

So after spending a lot of money getting it rego worthy, I took for a 50 mile drive the next day, drove great. Next day the clutch biting point started moving up and down and eventually had no bite point/ no resistance and wouldn’t go into gear. In the report they mentioned the master slave...

I’m looking at alternatives to the NOCO Genius GB40 and this one looks like it could be a solid contender https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com.au%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F263604566079 It’s 800AMP, 200 less than the NOCO, it states that it can start a 5L Diesel engine but has...

Welcome to the forum Tyrone! I’m living in Bondi and I’ve recently got myself a 2H HJ60, they’re a joy to ride, but not so much on steep hills. Don Kyatt are good and there’s also All Four x 4. There’s some rubber kits on there, I need to go about replacing mine too at some point. Mines just...

So an update for you all, finished the work on the hub and replaced the diff oil (there was little to none) had a quick drive and it felt great although the clutch bite point is now very low. Took it to a garage for a pink slip check and it failed massively, a grand total of $3500 worth of...

This is hole I’m referring to (images attached) Here’s a link to the video I’ve been following - 57 seconds in you can see him removing the screw from the drum

I managed to get it all on but for some reason I can’t get the retaining screw for the drum in place, I’ve rotated the drum every way possible but the holes won’t align, anyone had this issue before?

Haha brilliant! Okay I’ve put the hub on but it the inner part of the hub won’t sit flush (image attached) is that right?

Sweet thanks for the quick reply, do you grease the inner housing and seal before putting it in?

Thanks for the video that’s a nice tip I’m not sure if I’m being stupid but have I been given an extra axle seal? I have two but I thought there’s just one that goes into the axle housing? Also, would it be the smaller edge facing inwards on that seal? (Image attached)

Forget that, Just realised they're called the Wheel Nut Bolts haha :sweatsmile: Just watched a couple of vids on how to install them but if anyone still has an easy way to do them let me know

Great thanks for the help guys, I've made a start but have run into a problem. The dowel pins aren't installed in the hub and I have no idea how to install them! Any ideas? Can include pics if that helps *Edit - Not sure if they're called dowel pins, its the 6 bolts that hold the wheel to the...

Haven’t had a chance to get started on the axle yet, missing a few tools and some bits haven’t come in the post yet. I need axle stands, 2x 3 tonne stands should be okay right?

Yeah I'll check the other side for sure, I've ordered the hub kit but I'll need to ring them up and add another stud kit for the other side. So far i've ordered; The rear hub kit - $230 The rear wheel bearing adjuster tool - $20 Puller tool for seals - $20 Is there anything else I'll need the...

By the way, this is the beauty in full colour

Thanks for the advice again I think im going to give it a go and install a new hub myself using your advice. I’ll check Don Kyatts prices though to see if it’ll be worthwhile just going to them to install. @IRLGW - when you say to check the other side, what should I be looking for? Bent axle...

Thanks for the advice guys that’s much appreciated. I reckon it’s probably too much of a job for me right now, just moved to Bondi from London and don’t have many tools to my disposal. If anyone here is based in Sydney and can recommend someone that would be awesome. If anyone can link me to...

Hi guys, I’m new on the forum, I’ve just bought this beauty of a 60 series landcruiser, will post pics of it later. However, as I was driving home from a road trip the rear left axle hub bolts snapped off leaving the axle (I think, I’m not too mechanically educated) coming out of the wheel...
