I'm taking out the fuse called "engine" every night. Not that I think it keepes the experienced ones away... Even though most people would argue, that nobody would steal an old rusty car as mine, somebody stole my old 1984 VW Polo. After that I invested in a Defa DVS90 Alarm system. Pictures of...

I also have the problem with the red light turning on. To check the boost I bought a turbo manometer, and at maximum, the turbo delivers 0.75 bars of pressure. Isn't the normal pressure around 0.8?, which then means that my turbo ain't overboosting?

Mark: Strange, the pictures are hosted at Imageshack.us?)) Ben: The tyres I think, is big enough for the small 2,4. In really sticky mud, it can not pull my KM2's in higher gear than second low, so bigger tyres i think will be a problem. The plan for now is to get it done for the MOT (quite a...

Finally finished welding, and mounting new wing and innerwing. Ended up beeing quite satisfied with the way it turned out. Emblem, and turn signal is not going on, because my Ironman snorkel should arrive at tuesday:) Now I just need to get my painter to mix up some paint, so I can get it...

That doesn't look very comfortable at all. I ride some quite rough BFG M/T KM2's, and has no shaking at all. Seems incredible if only the castor can cause that much, but hopes you find a solution :)

Had a day off wednesday, because they a couple off times a year uses the workshop for ripping (what's the English word for taking the fur off?) mink, because the owner is a mink farmer. I think it's one of the most horrible smells in the world, when they hit there stink glands. The positive...

If we cared that much about the environment, we wouldn't be driving Land Cruisers but Aygo's :) I have done that before, and then mixed it with tar, and sometimes fat, gives and amazing underbody protection. The scrapyard owner which i comes at, also used to make his own, but due to new...

I've never seen it used on a diesel, but for petrol you uses it to prevent the oil fumes from being led into the intake, as it lowers the octane number. EGR has nothing to do with the crank ventilation. EGR is a system where you recycles some of the exhaust air. This should give a cleaner...

That wouldn't be my recomandation either ;) My next LC, I think is going to come from Southern Germany, where rust is no problem. Also it would never be affordable to buy a second hand car in Denmark to export. A new 150 LC4 is in Britain starting from £46k, in Denmark the same car costs...

Thanks :) Firstly my plan is to seal it up very well, with the new bought Sika sealer, and then ad a wax based coating, and at last ordinary underbody coating. And then, when I finish my rust project, I think the scrapyard owner who also does underbody protection can spray the whole car, then I...

Now Imageshack is working again, so here is a couple of pictures of the new wing :D , and a single one of the old one, that i scrapped, due to lack of time... And a picture of Emil still working on his Golf MK1 GTI (huge project, makes mine seem like nothing) Today i started by shopping...

Yes, the flares are not ideal for our northern climates. I often wish that I lived in a country were the roads wasn't totally white of salt each winter. Denmark is I think properbly the worst country in the world to own a car... Sikaflex seems like a good solution, when you run out of WD40 and...

Nice pics :thumbup: Found the wing at an old man, who had bought it years ago. I really can't decide wether or not, to get rid of the flares :think: My tires will stick out from the body, and in Denmark, that is punished by death, if you are caught by the police. Alternatively I could go...

Wasted a lot of time today. Decided to start reparing the outer fender, and came a long way, actually I think the result was good. But realising that it would take me half a year, having it welded up, sanded, painted refitted and so on, I found myself a new original one. Had to pay around 145£...

Yes, rather no handling at all than going down a tire size :D Looks good, and I can also just envy your carpet, even though I have recently gotten acces to 500m2 of fully insulated and heated, newly built garage with all requirements :D

Thanks again :) Yes the pressure washer is effective, even though I just found out now that I have access to a much more powerfull steam cleaner. So it's the plan that I will have my engine compartment cleaned until it shines. It is also usefull for getting all of the underbody coating of the...

Today I found myself, the perfect test for the Mud Terrain's. A real nice, and very soft field with nearly pure clay. And I must say that I am really impressed. Just good revs on the tires, and they clean themselves even when they in the real sticky clay. Great fun! :D Unfortunately this...

The spare car is mine, more or less, I am the only one allowed to take what I want, and then I can leave the rest. I've never seen any danish Kzj's. We though have some Bj73's. But, LJ70's are quite common over here, the same with the 80's 90's 100's and 120's and 150's. The 200 is not...

Thanks :) It's probably also rusty at the bottom of the B pillars, I thinks it's rusty everywhere :thumbdown: But fixing a little every day, I might get there :D Actually we got plenty of 70's round the scrapyards, but I've never seen a model neither driving or at the scrapyard later than 87'...

Set out to the local scrapyard today, to get some parts for my 70. I have a very good deal with the owner, by fixing things for him, due to the electric in order for me to get spares, which saves me a lot of money. He has only one 70, in Quite poor condition, but still it contains many good...

Thanks, actually i don't think that I have seen a 70, with the 2l-T without the Turbo graphics in DK, and we also has quite a lot in this color.

Hey, Having bought an old 70, which needs quite a lot of love, I thought i would share some of it in here. I haven't got very much time, and definitely not a lot of money, but I try to make the best out of it :thumbup: As an electrician I'm not quite a mechanic, but fortunately my best mate...

I have recieved them, thanks a lot :thumbup: Now i just need the time to give my Toyota some love :) , my part exam as an electrician I think might have to come first though...

Thanks, no haven't got the time, and Løkken, is quite a trip, in a Cruiser like mine :)

Thanks :) Yes the restrictions are not very friendly indeed, but rules are to be broken :lol: I'm already working on taking some pictures for a new thread. I'm currently working on the rust at the edge of the roof. So pictures will come soon. Thanks to you too :)

Thanks, I would appreciate that :thumbup: Thanks and yes, 5min away:) Thanks

Hi and thankks, in Denmark we have restrictions for everything, actually some times, i doubt that you are alowed to have a car. You can't lift it, you can't change the engine, actually even my 31" inch tires are illegal, you can't change the exhaust, you must not fit more than 4 extra lights...

I can imagine, I've also already gone through the tread about his fantastic project:) Thanks, actually my RC Defenders i think is worth more than my Cruiser :P But LR is fine for scale models, but in the real world, i go for Toyota :thumbup:

Hello, my name is Anders, 20 years old. Im living in Denmark just nearby Legoland:) Im totally new in four by fours, until now I have only had them in 1:10 (me and the guys in the local club http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GRk0ZO0 ... ature=plcp), which is also a lot of fun, but with the 1:1's...
