Hi all, my hdj80 had these 35 x 12.5 tyres fitted when I bought her 3 years ago. It passed each annual mot here in Spain. Now it fails because the rear brake force numbers are low. The local Toyota dealer has changed the brake master cylinder seals and now wants to change the rear caliper...

Hi everyone, Great forum, I've got some brilliant help from existing posts on here. This thread is a progress log of work to date... partly for me, partly as a place to post head scratching moments during the process and hopefully tap into the wealth of knowledge on here... 2002 Land Cruiser...

Brakes With hindsight I should probably have researched the forum beforehand. I changed the seal on one of the rear pistons and I changed the front pads. I then used a vacuum bleeder to bleed the brakes and with the car turned off the brake pedal is solid. When I start the car, there is...
