Gents, hope all is well back home! American here living in Saudi Arabia. I just purchased a GCC spec 2000 Landcruiser VXR it also has:
AHC
Toyota OEM winch
For its age it is VERY low in mileage. We have an hobby shop here that was started by we Americans 40-50 years ago. There are land cruisers all over the place here. I put it on the lift and here is what I had planned:
Suspension
LCA - full bushing replacements + ball joints (moog, greasable)
UCA - full busing replacements + ball joints (moog, greaseable) or puchase of nitro or slee UCA
Inner and outer tie rods - full replacements (OEM or moog) + new rack boots
Sway bar refurbish- All bolts and bushings replaced where applicable (see
https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/parts-list-to-refurb-your-sway-bars.537225/page-3#post-8314983)
Front Timbren bump stops w/ soft material
Drive Train
CVA - full replacement (Im going to bring them back rebuilt from the US) with pfran clamps.
Font and rear bearing repack (i will do front first) with synthetic bearing greast
Cooling:
Full hose replacement with brass T fittings ( see https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/diy-replacing-heater-hose-pipe-ts-important.610334/page-3)
Constant torque clamps for hoses (size??).
New Thermostat fail open thermostat and gasket
Lube:
Royal Purple Filter
Front and rear diff oil change + new drain plugs + washer
Transmission - new oil and new drain plugs + washer
Oil change - mobile 1 synthetic or AMS if I can find any here
New oil pan fill bolt + washer
A quick question? What size should the constant torque clamps for the hose replacements be?
I have an excel sheet I will share will all part numbers one I finish it along with link to the manufacture site and referenced ih8mud pages and put them all in one sheet. See the example attached..
I was going to ask Beno or cruiser dan for a quote for some of these items.
