    100 Series LX470 8HP swap

    Marvellous work. Please provide an expose' on the screen you have mounted. The trouble with us that lurk on these IH8MUD pages are like magpies and see some new shiny improved modification that we would also like on our own rig.

    LX470 Big Brake Kit install

    The 6 piston Power Brake kit for the front looks good but would also need to fit say a four piston rear the same to maintain a relative balance across the system

    LX470 Big Brake Kit install

    Any record of part numbers and recommendations for a supplier of the Stoptech Big Brake kit. Have experienced a few brake fade events over the past couple of years so am keen on replacing my calipers so may as well upgrade

    LC100/LX470 Part-Time Conversion Discussion

    The getting out and changing 2WD or 4WD was only a minor issue. The rear concern was when rear end got loose a couple of times (unplanned on my part) on wet and gravel roads and I wanted the reassurance of fulltime 4WD that I was used to since buying the rig brand new. The supposed fuel saving...

    LC100/LX470 Part-Time Conversion Discussion

    Am over my part time kit. It was a work around when internals of transfer case exploded earlier this year. The last clunk in the clunk reduction journey that many of us get on. Have sourced a new transfer case out of Toyota for $1400 NZD about 800USD and will go back to full time 4WD. Can drive...

    100 Series Torsion Bar options (definitive table w/ part nos. and custom pre-order interest)

    Has anyone got access to Toyota FAST and can they run 48161-60100 & 48162-60100 and 48161-60120 & 48162-60120 to determine part applicability for different models of our 100 series. The OEM part for us diesels with AHC 48162-60020 (1210mm x 25.5mm) is no longer available but apparently the part...

    Bespoke Front and Rear Big Brake Kit(Bigger than big) with Electronic Parking Brake

    What a massive amount of effort to date. Looking forward to seeing product available sometime soon. Once you have sorted out the 80 series products please review what you might be able to offer us 100 series folks. My current go-faster mods require me to circle back to also require me upgrading...

    100 Series Torsion Bar options (definitive table w/ part nos. and custom pre-order interest)

    Good morning Patch Am keen on the diesel version (1210mm) AHC version torsion bar set in 27mm when it is available. At 630,000km and with an ARB safari bar my OEM torsion bars are getting a little tired. OEM bar which are 25mm are no longer available from Toyota or other suppliers such as...

    8hp70 auto retrofit to Landcruiser

    I will need to check out the details but I believe my transfer case on my 100 series is the same as what runs on your 80 series as I also currently run the a442f 4 speed. Its fitted with a Marks p/t kit and was supplied and installed by Trundles. I can put it aside for you once I go back to...
