Hi all, Ive been contemplating a change from the 76 series to a V8 troopy for sometime now but haven't done much about seeing it through for various reasons. One is I don't really know what sort of value to put on the 76 as it has quite a few mods and it's been a proper labour of love over the...

Hi folks, I've owned my 2015 JDM import 76 series for over four years now and just waiting on delivery of the Toyota chassis and towbar harnesses so I can finally use the square hitch built into my Kaymar rear bar. Trouble is that JDM cars don't have load rating plates on them and I'm seeing...

Why do Toyota fit odd plugs to the V6 engine? Denso on the right and NJK on the left which i find very strange. I'd read some posts in America that its normal with forerunners etc but something i've never come across before.

Kinda just discovered these troop carriers on steroids lol. Are these made by Toyota or are they custom built? Love to know more about them as I bet they would make a great camper.

I've been wanting a set of these for a while and bought some from cruiser consoles in Australia who shipped these over for me. They take abit of fitting which is more to do with the wiring making sure it looks factory but the quality of these pods is amazing. Only someone familiar with 70...

Hi folks, I bought a breather kit for my 2015 76 series and fitted the front and rear diff breather hoses fine but struggling to access the gearbox/transfer connections. I think the factory transfer hose is linked to the gearbox but access looks impossible. How do folk normally fit these kits...

Hopefully the link works ok.

New mod to the 76 thanks to Paul at West coast. Must sort out the rear bumper next lol

Hi folks, Quick question, I was gifted a set of spotties and plan on mounting these onto my AFN bullbar but not sure where. I can mount them in front of the grill if I open up the holes on the bullbar but they will block air flow to the radiator. Or I can mount them on top of the bullbar using...

Hi folks, anyone know if the Ironman side rails and steps ssr015 are compatible with different manufacturers of bull bars. I have an AFN winch bar but AFN dont seem to make any side rails. Its for a 2015 76 series.

Hi folks, Ventura Rooftop Tent 1.8m double ladder for sale - opening up to 1.8m X 2.4m. Purchased new beginning of this year and has been used for a few trips this summer season. Just recently removed from the car. Tent is in good condition with large annex which zips in place and encloses the...

Hi folks, Anyone have any experience with ikamper skycamp rooftop tents? They're abit pricey but look excellent and very quick to setup. Bit more streamlined too. https://ikamper.uk.com/collections/shop Thinking of selling my 1.8m ventura tent and annex for one of these next year. Cheers Mike

Hi all, insurance time is looming again and I'm trying to figure out what security Toyota fitted as standard to the GRJ76k models. Anyone know what revision of immobiliser is fitted ? EIS 2 or 3 maybe. Thinking about adding to the security but not quite sure which way to go. I'm reluctant to...

Hi guys, How often do you guys repack your wheel bearings with grease? Mine is 4 years old with 15000 miles and I don't think they've been touched. Last service when swapping round the wheels I checked for play, noises etc and all good. I'm planning to get into them in September when it's next...

Passed some poor sod today just outside Burton upon trent. Cruiser with trailer collided with the back of a new shape civic. Cruiser had a fair bit of damage, bonnet folded up in half, but there was nothing left of the back of the civic. Hopefully everyone ok, saw folk stood at the side of the...

Finally received everything I wanted in terms of rooftop tent and annex. It's only taken since February. Although I'm happy with the setup I'd like to warn people who are considering buying anything Ventura. I wish I'd never ever considered Ventura as the guy running it is the worst I've ever...

Hi folks, Having bother trying to source a Bullbar for the 76 wagon here in the UK. Very jealous of the choice in Oz but difficult to find a company over there that ships to the UK. I fancied the large tube ARB Bullbar but it's not compatible with the factory winch apparently. ( Anyone know...

Some lucky uk owner is waiting on a cracking cruiser coming off the boat. Same agent i used to import my 76. Cant believe the condition of this cruiser under the bonnet and throughout for its age.

Thought I'd stick some pics up of the 76 up the hills around me and playing in abit of snow up Glenshee a few weeks back. The sunny ones are up Linn of Dee near Braemar. A mate of mine directed me to an old coffin trail route which is an old right of way from Kilry to Kirton of...

Interesting project for someone. Dont see them that often in the uk. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/283264663246

When my cruiser was imported the place getting it ready for IVA testing stole one of the reverse lights to turn into a fog light which i wasn't happy with but knew it was better than having a light dangling under the bumper. So decided to have a look at the tail lights and noticed a couple of...

Hi all, With my cruiser being a fresh Japanese import im getting it ready for the winter so thought I'd share some pics of the work. Couple of before pics after a hot wash and the rest are after the dinitrol has been applied. Guy doing the job was really impressed by the build quality of the...

Hi all, New owner here and my first ever landcruiser. Had plenty toyotas / Lexus in the past though and appreciate how well their cars are put together. I bought my 2015 76 series GRJ76K in Japan and shipped it over to the uk with just under 5000 miles on the clock. Loving it so far and its...
