I'm planning on changing the bushes on the trailing arms and panhard rod this weekend. Dose anyone know the sizes for the bolts on those? I have a set of bushes from roughtrax but would like to get bolts for it before I take anything apart if anyone knows what's needed. Thanks

Thanks I appreciate the input from all of you. I have changed the bushes on the anti roll bars plus the drop links which hasn't made a difference. My plan was to just keep changing the bushes on the back until I find it. But based on others experience I will take everything out the vehicle plus...

Hi all, I am getting an occasional sharp knock from the rear of the vehicle. It only seems to happen when cornering, at slow speed. I have also been able to replicate it sometimes by backing onto a curb one wheel at a time. Despite that I cannot really work out where it is coming from. It is a...

I had a similar problem which was the just that the wiring running into the doors had gotten damaged from the door opening and closing. That was the drivers door to because that's the one being opened the most. I replaced the wiring running through the hinge area.

After getting home tonight with the engine idling I noticed the temperature gauge briefly dropped for about a second before going back up to operating temperature. My immediate fear was that might be gas in the coolent system but I don't think I could see any evidence of that in the expansion...

Hi All, I am attempting to diagnose an issue with the air-conditioning on a 1kzte model. The clutch on the ac compressor is not engaging so I have checked and there is no voltage to it when the switch is pressed with the fan on. Firstly am I'm I correct in thinking that there is no fuss to this...

I am doing quite a lot of nighttime driving and I am realising that the land cruiser headlights are particularly terrible. I have already swapped the bulbs out for Osram Night Breaker 220 bulbs but it is still not great. Has anyone else found a good solution to it? I was unwilling to just put in...

Has anyone successfully fixed the heated seats? Mine have not worked for some time but I have looked at fixing them. I have checked voltage at a brown plug on the front of the drivers seat and have found that it is fine there. Anything that I should look at to find the fault? Thanks in advance

Thanks all, those replies are useful. I'll put there down as something not worth worrying about and carry on with just changing the oil.

It's time for me to do an oil change. The engine has 260 thousand miles on it and the oil is black so I was debating methods to flush the engine. I had considered the oil cleaning additives but had probably decided I wasn't comfortable with those but I was considering changing the oil and...

A question for anyone who has mounted driving lights on or into the stock bumper, how have you done this? If you have pictures of the front of your vehicle as inspiration that would be appreciated! I am intending to mount a pair of light bars inside the upper two slots on the bumper as it one...

Hi All, I have a 1997 UK spec j95 which has been in the family since new and I have been doing some jobs on it over the last year to get everything back to how it should be whilst also using it as my only car. The current problem is an electrical one which I am less confident on so it has got...
