I read this link by Andrew St Pierre White (4x4 'expert') where he weighs up his options to buy a 4x4 in the UK. Anyway he has this to say about the 80: "They are all old, and to find a good one, with mileage under 100K, is a real challenge. And rust is a huge issue. Unless the owner has had...

Seen some members building some quality drawer systems recently :thumbup: Noticed this link posted on LCCSA, interesting idea: http://www.offroadsystems.com.au/diy.html They also have some nice stainless water tanks

So we had a show house today so had to be out the house for a few hours. We decided to go view some game. Pilanesberg is excellent value usually. Didn't see as many elephant as usual, but still a good day out :thumbup: Poor thing must have had a run-in with a lion! Missing its...

Hi everyone, from sunny Morocco :) This morning tried unlocking the car with the keyfob, but there was no response. at all. So I unlocked the door expecting the alarm to go off. nothing again. Then I put the key in the ignition and tried turning it over, and nothing. Absolutely dead. I...

Thought I'd put some pics here whenever I get the chance! We are in Portugal now, will hopefully be heading into Morocco on Friday :thumbup: Car is heavier than I would like so is sitting low at the back. Headed to Dunkerque , then to Paris Camped at a site next to the river Seine...

So its 10mm for the filler. Is the drain 12mm? Just want to get the right sized one - not a set! (and why on earth are HEX SOCKETS needed?! :evil: )

This has done the rounds. First time I saw it I thought WTF . Now I cant stop laughing :laughing-rolling: :banana-dance: [youtube:3pr42mzq]ljPFZrRD3J8[/youtube:3pr42mzq]

Today changed oil & oilfilter and fuel filter too. Removed the whole filter housing to get a good grip on the filter. Put it back in, didn't fill filter with diesel though. Primed it a bit and started no worries then died shortly after. Guess I didn't prime it enough. Anyway I primed some...

As I plan on doing some mileage in Morocco & Sahara and ALOT of mileage in Namibia/Bots in the near future.... I thought I'd get one of these pre-filters: I notice Devon4x4 do some at +- £45. Found a place (Sterling Filtration) that do these for closer to £22. :thumbup: They also do the...

is there one for this site? :?:

Post your gifs here!

I normally read posts on the forum using a RSS reader on my phone. I was trying out an app on my android phhone called Tapatalk, and it seems to make using a forum on a mobile a much easier experience. The app works with Expedition Portal. I tried accessing this forum with it but it seems the...

Well I did attempt to tint my own windows but I didnt get very far :lol: Lets just say I dont have the patience to cut them the right size. Got several quotes and most of them were over £200 for the rear windows only. This place charged £160, and were very open that doing any tint to the...

Possible sticky? I use this as a guide to which oils to get for my 90: Alternative recommendations welcome! :

"This 12 ton truck got stuck in the mud at Kubu Island in Botswana. A total of 8 4x4's participated in the recovering process." :shock: [youtube:adv5mhgb]RBQepZFRqS4[/youtube:adv5mhgb]

Went on holiday to Madeira recently and must have seen 15 different 40's. Most in immaculate condition. Not bad for a small island with 250k people. Only had my camera with my some of the time so only a few pics

Well this is on my to-do list. It was mentioned on the forum that a cheap alternative to ASFIR would be to simply weld some steel plate to the stock bash-plate. I've taken the two front plates off, and I'm wondering whats the best way of going about it. The plate is all curved so I thought...

I was checking the coolant level this PM and the expansion tank was empty except for a thick layer of what looks like mud..! Was playing in the mud last weekend at piccadilly wood. How on earth could this get into the cooling system? Has not overheated once since I've owned it. New radiator a...

Anyone have any opinions on the Waeco CDF-25 ? Size isnt too important to me (litre-wise) . Just want to keep some meat frozen and keep some eggs and things in the fridge compartment. I'm thinking I will rather get a new Waeco than a used Engel?

Well in preparing for a trans-Africa trip, I've been thinking I'll do some fishing en route. Mostly beach fishing I reckon. I am looking for a rod and reel and associated weights etc. I'm sure any old rod will do but wonder what I should be looking for. 13ft rods? 15ft? dont want to spend a...

In fact it doesnt like any of my search terms. It does this on both of my work computers Dont recall if it works on my home PC's :?: :?:

Well it seemed nigh on impossible to source a decent load guard for a Colorado so I thought I will have a go at making one myself. I've never welded before in my life. I managed to pick up an arc welder off ebay for around £20 including everything I needed like rods etc. I made up a frame...

Anyone have these ? I'm looking for some decent seat covers for the LC. Climate Covers sent me a swatch of their fabrics which look quite nice and their price is not bad. Or - what covers do you recommend?

Seen a thread on the HUBB that L Jackson & Co are selling these for £20 ea Are these any good in the sand? They also have some pierced steel planking

My KZ-TE has always started with no problems. max one or two seconds before it gets going. In the last week or two, it can take 5 seconds or so. If I let it run a little, then retry it starts no problem. I added some injector cleaner a week or two back, which ties in with the longer starts...

...and Guinness Premiership Finals this weekend! Who you got? I'm predicting a close Bulls win :( & Saracens to sneak it 8-)

I have an annoying knocking sound coming from the rear of the LC. It happens whenever I go over some bumps - even manhole covers cause it. It is more pronounced at the near side but has started to develop on the OS too. Sounded at first like it was the bottle jack loose in its holding place...

I read somewhere that it is possible to get the accessory sockets to work with the ignition off. Anyone know how to do this? :?: (I plan on replacing one of my two batteries with a leisure battery, fit an isolation switch so when camping etc I can run some 12v accessories, phone chargers...

I am thinking of installing an EGT gauge for my KZTE Colorado. I recently had to put on a new head and am not keen on going through this experience again. It seems to me the best way to keep tabs on the temp is to fit an EGT gauge. There are some EGT gauges on ebay for not alot of money. (...

Well I was in the market a while back for a Hilux Surf, but then decided to rather get a Colorado. So happy I rather went for a LC. Well to be honest the original plan was to ride a KLR650 with SWAMBO as pillion from the UK to South Africa :D :D . But then I thought 'what if kids arrive in the...

For some reason this board software doesn't like to mark posts that I've read as having been read. Its quite annoying that I cant easily scan what new posts there are since my last visit etc, as pretty much all of them are marked as unread. Tried deleting cookies but that didnt help...

Well I was sitting in the car and thought "lets have another try and see if the rear difflock will work" Well I put it on and voila it worked. But now it wont disengage. Got to travel to Cornwall tomorrow....help! Its definitely locked, I can feel it. So I am reading now what I can do...

Hi all Just a heads up - we have a bit of a group buy going on some of these: If anyones interested check out this topic in the Overland Builds forum. There are various styles available - covering entire wheel. They have a bin for rubbish/recovery straps, and a pocket for a braai...

:shock: :shock: :shock: Why!?

Load guard / dog guard for a LWB Colorado 90 series. Long shot I know, but Toyota tell me they've discontinued them... I would attempt making one, but dont have a welder.. Never seem to find any on ebay :(

Is it possible to embed a google map on a post in the forum ? I have an embed code starting with <iframe width="425" etc but that doesnt work when i preview my post Is it possible?
