Check caster with a wheel alignment. There is a small amount of adjustment with something I am told by the shop that did mine. I have a 2" lift but caster was 4 degrees out, possibly due to an old accident so worth a go

I used some regular Sony ones that are NOT shallow mount, all you need to do is use the plastic frame that makes up the genuine ones, cut out the speaker part with a knife and mount the new speakers to the plastic outside frame. Very easy only took about 30mins to change the front pair. If you...

If you have a roof rack it could be that, I had the same problem with my cruiser, I ended up taking the trim panel off the drivers pillar and putting silicone in the clip holes and it stopped the noise, just hope I don't need to get it off again :) but did fix the problem

Got the eaton/harrop in the front of my cruiser and mate has the Arb. we both agree that the eaton/harrop seems to work better after some time off road. One of the best situation we have found is on a track we drive quite often where you drive down into the river bed with the locker on as there...

I have these in my HDJ100. This is what you get from toyota down under now unless you specifically ask for the normal boot. When I took it in for a service and they replaced the cv due to some odd noises they put these on. I got mine lifted about 2 inch ATM and have these boots on for the past...

Side moldings are clipped on and then stuck. Ripped mine off wheeling one day. Then when I went to get a new door for another incident I had there are two parts listed. Here is aus we get them with and without the moldings that's why we have both body panels listed. And you can also buy a front...

Cheers for all your help guys on the advice I went through nd disconnected AT&T the electronics one by one cleaning all the plugs. When I got to the one at 12o'clock on the rear housing I noticed it was a lot stiffer than the others on investigation after using a can on electronic cleaner it...

I had 35" wit a small amount if scrub on front when steering and a small(very small) scrub on rear at full flex up into the guard. Now running 33" and even on flex ramp or crossed up cannot get them to touch. To be exact they are 285/75r16, bfg km2. That on a car with no suspension or body work

I'll have to pull out the switches and check they working. Think that's the next step. I also may have not made it clear but I didn't even open up the t/fer case. It was the engine rear main that I replaced which is why it has me stumped as nothing more was done to the tranny than unplug the...

No luck there, didn't get one reply. Went under and lowered down the transmission cross member. I found what appears to be a breather line snapped at the input elbow. It goes into a plastic piece along with an electrical connector. Mainly thinking out loud here but is there any chance that that...

i have an Australian 105 series landcruiser with the 1fz-fe engine and constant 4wd so basically an 80 series with a 100 body. My issue is that after removing the auto and transfer case to fix a rear main seal, I now have issues engaging the Cdl. It works when it is cold. It will go in alright...

Thank for the advice i will try it

Hi all I am looking at buying a used Lexus LX470 at the moment but since I have only had HDJ landcruisers previous I am not sure how many km to expect out of a well serviced engine and car?? I have found a few points on search but the treads always seem to get off topic and don't get many...
