Hi
Hi all, just bought my first 4 x 4 a 90 Series Landcruiser Colorado.
I'm looking for some light upgrades as the rears are tired looking. Also I'm going changing the front indicator bulbs to Diadem ones as I don't like the fried egg look.
I've already changed the stereo to an Alpine unit...
Hello from Cork
Hello Gavin,
I'm also a new user and have just bought my first 4x4 a SWB 1997 3.0TD Colorado. I'm in Cork so I'm looking for some nice routes to take my own Black Beast out on.
Your own beasty looks very cool. Is it commercial or is that security glass?

Thanks again

First off the gear changes are more difficult to what I've been used to in my Audi's - please don't laugh as it is my first 4 x 4. When I'm changing up...
Thanks
Thanks for the replies again guys. I was driving at about 50kph before I moved onto a dirt road that was slightly uphill. I changed to 4wd after being in 2wd for 10 or so minutes. The paved road was very twisty.
My gut feeling is that I am over reacting and it was engine torque or the...
Hi Gears
Thanks for the replies.
I was in 4WD HI gears and was driving slow and straight.
I tried to coast a little down a hill but it "braked" on it's own. Maybe it's just the extra force required to drive the 4WD made it feel like it was braking but I have not felt this on either a Terrano...
Hello all,
this is my first post and my first Toyota Landcruiser so please forgive my lack of knowledge.
I have almost purchased my first Landcrusier but while I was testing it I'm not sure if I found a problem or not. I'm after some advise as I'm not sure if it is a normal Landcruiser behaviour...
