    1HDT 80 series

    @Ob1 Cheers mate, I'll look into it. I have a mate running big numbers on a 1hdt so I'll see what kit he uses. To be fair we have over a million miles on 1hdts here over the last 20 or so years and yet to have bother. But since this 80 will be with me for the rest of my life hopefully, I'd...

    1HDT 80 series

    Bit of aan updates Both riffs have been removed from the parts truck and look okay, so I'll throw them in to my good 80 and see how they go.

    1HDT 80 series

    Update - So since my 80 is a 91, it came with breaks that are rubbish The spare parts truck I have has the bigger breaks on it, after Toyota realised the mistake. From what I understand, all that is needed is the calipers, backing blade and discs for this to work, though some people report...

    Nice to see another local 80 on here! keep and eye on your steering knuckle studs, they have a tendency to loosen up. Hopefully get to see it in flesh after all this corona shambles

    Rosie the Rover (Defender 110)

    So after a mishap with a jack slipping after sorting the rear A frame ball joint I've had to replace the fuel tank But looking at it it was probably required. Next up is replacing the rear crossmember as the current one is rotten, Funnily enough this is the only part on the chassis that's...
