Thread: BJ73 Landcruiser

Diesel bros nz division

I've found something I think will work, could you just take a photo of yours ?

You can buy diesel fuel hand primers for boating applications that mount to your firewall/wheel well if you only need it to prime the lines after a 50,000 km fuel filter change, or you run dry.

Not that expensive

I got bored and got the angle grinder out and made my old chrome bumper fit the modified winch housing, cos I thought it looked a bit weird with nothing in front of the wheels. I think it looks pretty good

So does it just sit flatter against the front now? IE less step?

The picnic table was a good feature!

Yeah it sticks out like 4 inches less than it did as the shelf. Went and explored some mysterious tracks to nowhere and forestry. Found a promising looking spot to go for a bush stalk. The Bridgestone ATs did pretty good, had some good wheel spin up some clay hills but dragged me through it

Cheers but I think I'm cool with not having bullbars at the moment

Please tell me you have one of these so I don't have to find an alternative to it
This thing not working trashed my transfer case prior to me getting the vehicle. Dick previous owner had pulled the bulb out of the 4x4 light.

I'v been avoiding popping that bonnet but tearing the bandage off was not so bad.

Thats fresh bird nest, its that time of year again.

You should be able to get one of those for a 1HZ off trademe for like $62, but also you should be able to get the filter off without breaking it

You have an H55F? You can convert them to a fully manual transfer case apparently, if you can get the parts. Or just find a fully manual xfer case somewhere and bolt it on I guess

Get your landcruiser working again Tim

Oh I mean the fuel filter housing on trademe, but I can get those VSVs for my model of truck for like $50 US from the net so they should still be around for the HZJ77

e: maybe not actually. whoops, hope mine don't die

I have the same thing. Except mine works flawlessly. Wonder if you can get the vsv fixed. Also I think putting it in 4LO engages the tfer case even if the vacuum doesn't



I changed a leaky hose and flushed my coolant.



And this happened

A breeding pair!

TBH though, you need two just to keep one of them on the road...

The new one belongs to my flatmate Dave
