Would this be a good option? https://www.tayna.co.uk/leisure-batteries/numax/cxv30hmf/

Hi all, I need of recommendations for suppliers and battery types to replace the batteries in a standard engine bay set-up in my '98 100 series. Knowledge in this area is limited so not really sure what to look out for. Apologies for the vagueness and thanks in advance.

Does anyone still have the contact details of the Goodwinch agent they dealt with for this group buy? I'm in the market for a winch now, any recommendations on how they've performed since you've had them?

The weird thing was I was getting power to the rear right hand side window, but only to go down? Anyways, I managed to fix the problem by pulling off the door panel and checking all the wiring connections that ran to the control unit. A couple of them were loose in the block so I tightened...

Hi all, Hoping someone can help, I'm having an issue with both the front & rear power windows not moving, but only on the right hand side!? I've also made sure the lock control mechanism isn't on... Has anybody encountered this before? Any help is appreciated

So after many hours trying to fix this damn thing I gave up and took it into Toyota :icon-rolleyes: They spent about 6 hours on it trying figure out what the issue was by following the loom and it turns out to be...... A faulty rear fog light switch??? :think: According to the wiring...

So gave it all a pretty good once over and still can't find a solution... Replaced all the bulbs, checked all the fuses, found & checked all the power and earths and no improvement? One thing I do find odd though is that the main beam lights come on still when I flash high-beams? Which leads to...

So both my main lamps on my headlights have just stopped working within a couple days of each other and I'm just wondering if this is an issue others have come across? Side lamps and full beam work fine, main lamp bulbs themselves are fine. My thoughts at the moment are an earthing issue, but...

Yep, I own a manual '98 T-reg 100

Hi all, Does anyone have any recommendations on where I could go to get a 2F engine rebuilt by someone with some decent Toyota knowledge? Thanks

One exemplary museum quality truck, but really, £33k ex-vat!? :pray: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FOR-SALE-Toyota-Land-Cruiser-BJ40-Hardtop-1979/111631155492

I'll be getting mine Galv'd and powder coated...

Looks amazing mate, very tidy work!

I'm not parting anything from her as it's a restoration project...

Great spot that Cap, just bought the green one. The seller plans on doing up the brown one eventually. Cheers!

Hi all, I'm trying to find out more information regarding my 1976 FJ45RP-KW Pickup so I can source parts with better accuracy and was after some help. It seems as though during 1976 there was a design change from July to August (07/1976-08/1976) as on ToyoDIY there are different part numbers...

Thanks Giles, bit steep that. I'll keep looking thanks.

Hi all, In need of a front bib in good condition to go on a 1976 FJ45 Pickup. Any lying around out there? Also, does anyone know a breaker that would possibly have any 40's? (Long shot I know, but I heard whispers in the wind about a guy out in Tewkesbury?) Thanks, Scott

Went last year and really enjoyed it, some of the seminars were well worth the entry fee. I'll be making the trip up for the day on Saturday.

Thanks all, that uShip service is a clever idea. I've posted an ad and waiting for quotes. I had a look at the AA site, 5% discount for members. They quoted £389 for 198 miles. After asking for quotes from around 10 different companies, I got 1 reply from a company called Zoom Car Transport...

Sorry forgot to mention that... non-drivable and can't be towed, would have to be on a flatbed or something of the like. LWB 40 Series Cruiser.

Hey all, Need to get a car delivered from Leicester ways up to Cumbria and I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations on vehicle delivery/car transport companies? Seems to bit quite a number on a quick Google search, but always better to go with a company that someone has used. Cheers

Have a word to Paul or Tom at West Coast Off Road in Banks, they put a full Stainless system on my 100 and it sounds and performs mint. www.westcoastoffroad.co.uk

So I ended up going with MTEC Grooved & Dimpled Discs, Mintex Pads and refurbished Calipers from Brakes International and am very happy with the results Just need some spacers now...

Yep I'll be there with Hank on the Saturday as well

As stated in the title, I'm trying to find someone that stocks Eibach Pro-Spacers for my LC100 yet all I can find is stuff in 6-stud? Any ideas?

Hi all, I've picked up some new kit to improve the sound in the truck but am struggling to find a reputable installer in and around West London. Can anyone recommend an installer they've used and were happy with the results/cost?

Yeah I was thinking the Dimpled & Grooved option would be the way to go

Hi all, It's time Hank got some extra stopping power with all the extra weight I'm starting to put on him (not from my own excess consumption). The front discs came up as needing to be changed on my most recent MOT so I figured I might as well change all four corners for the better. I was...

Thanks team, I thought that may be the case and I'll go down the by-pass route.

Hi all, I've just had my Air Con fail and it looks as though the culprit is (from what I've been told) the "Auxiliary Water/Heater Pump Assembly". The front pulley with the magnetic clutch has seized and in turn shredded the belt and stopped any nice cool breeze being produced...

I've been reading the blog and the truck is looking sharp. Looking forward to seeing some pictures of it fully loaded just before you take off!

Rod and his team on the base are certainly worth looking into, cheers for that. They're priced in the normal range of vehicle storage but it is the added extra's that is enticing me. Also looking at the "Rent-My-____" options, but having to sift through them all and making sure they aren't...

I'm going away for a couple of months over Xmas and was thinking about storing the truck somewhere a bit more secure than the on-street parking I currently have to use. I was just wondering if anybody has used and would recommend a vehicle storage company around West London?

Any update on the performance of this system? :thumbup:
