Hey guys, I know this forum is mainly American based when it comes to cruisers, but it's time I upgrade my tyres and I'm looking at options with what size to run. I currently have a set of 285/75/16's that are nearly cooked, would I get away with running 315/75/16's with 2" lift? I have a new...

Its slowed down to next to nothing leaking, but I have ordered those new plugs as advised. I'll still chuck some thread tape on to help seal it all up, fingers crossed it does the trick! I'll take some photo's of my shoddy work on the weekend when the parts arrive and the plugs are installed...

It appears that it is. Formula Off road were given the contract to install their barwork and a 10000 pound winch about 15 years ago in the Victoria Police cruisers. I have the mighty 1HZ in my cruiser, 300000km young.

we have a winner!!! Just speaking to them now, apparently they fitted these bars to police 4wd's about 15 years ago! Your a deadset legend mate!

That's what i thought as well mate, I went to the local TJM dealer and also shot them these pic's on facebook, they are saying it isn't one of theirs.

Hey guys, I've never been able to find out what brand of bullbar I have on the cruiser, I have spoken to most of the main manufacturers on facey, but they all say it's not theirs. I originally wanted to know so I could order the correct winch plate to suit the bar, but I ended up buying a...

Love following your builds, the level of workmanship is next level! Love my 105 series cruiser, you guys don't get the 1HZ up there do you?

Had a crack at cleaning it all up and applying cold weld to the crack and let it sit over night. I couldn't check for leaks this morning, too dark and everything was frozen solid thanks to a damn cold night. I'll have a look after I knock off this arvo. Thanks everyone for their advice on...

Thanks mate, will give that a crack this arvo. Going to have to try and clean up the area without dropping the oil, can't afford to grab more, lucky its a very slow weep, just not looking forward to getting covered in crap! Any recommendations to make cleaning gearbox oil off of gearbox easy...

Thanks heaps for that mate! Turns out the drain plug was a 27mm socket, started to undo the drain plug then realise why.... Saw a lovely crack along the housing where the drain plug goes in along with silicone coming out while I was undoing the bolt :( They must have used a larger bolt to get...

Thanks for the replies guys. The cruiser was on a level piece of cement, but one of the shocks has blown, so perhaps that could have caused it to spill from the fill hole, or the transfer is to full, will look at that during the week. RangerDownunder - That would be brilliant if you could get...

Hey guys, I have a 105 series cruiser with a 1HZ, I'm about to drop the gearbox oil as it's getting a bit hard to get into 1st, 5th and reverse. I have been able to undo the fill plug (24mm hex socket), but the drain plug is something completely different and much bigger. All the reading I...

Hey guys, First time poster, long time lurker! I currently have a 1998 105 series Landcruiser (4.2d) and am looking at potentially fitting new 2" coils with shocks suited for 3" lift to allow for greater flex. My cruiser has a steel bar with a soon to be fitted winch (synthetic rope), alloy...
