How did Hundy originate?

I'm new to owning a Land Cruiser. Sorry for my silly question but how did the nickname Hundy come about?

UZJ100 > 100 > hundred > hundy.

Howdy! I figured that since the Rovers go by "Landy", then the 100's wanted to sound like them!! John

when using the term be careful to clarify as most people will think you mean a Hyundai.

So I wanted to put my oem rear spoiler back on, but! The bolts that attach the spoiler wont unscrew. They just keep rotating in place. Anyone got advice on how to remove the bolts?

stripped? try turning them with a plier and pulling out at the same time.


if all else fails...no clue.


wait, are you talking about the bolts on the body or the bolts on the spoiler, there is probably a nut behind em.

bolts to the body! I have tried pulling and turning with pliers, but no luck, I dont know what else to try

I really dont want to take it to a mechanic and get charged for taking out 4 bolts

you can't pull off the trim at the top of the hatch? or are the nuts still concealed in the channel of the window frame?

I didnt think of pulling off the trim, but the nuts are concealed in the window frame. I should probably try it tomorrow

 

[OregonLC]

Ah nuts! It is weird that all of them are doing that.

Anyone with an African Outback full size rack mind taking a measurement for me? I'd like to know the distance between the long slats with the mounting channels on them. Center on center, should be about 155mm but I just want to double check. Trying to get something fab'd up but I'm not around my truck to measure it.
