Toyota landcruiser H60 for sale

HI, I am selling the landcruiser I was planning to take to india, but can't 'cos of visas etc. it's on ebay, number 150047448270.
this is probably one of the best round headlight H60s you will find in the UK.
As far as I am aware it has never been used for expedition work and has just over 120000 miles under it's belt.

Moggy,

I appreciate it is an auction - but how much do you want for it now?

Are there leaf or coil springs? Have you done anything about extended range, larger tanks etc?

cheers

Hi there, it's good old fashioned leaf springs. I would take £2000 for it as a buy it now (although I haven't put that option on the site it could be done.)

I looked in to longer tanks, allysport do them, but I didn't get any further with doing anything about it. msg me through ebay if you want to come and have a look.

I didn't fit or source them, I left that to the garage that does my prep work for me, they are called GM autotech in Norfolk, telephone 01379853721. ask for leighton or johnno. they are good guys and have done some great work on my truck. they both own 4x4s and do lots of work on them.

they did have to do some fabrication work for the mounts but the sliders length I think is prefect. I got ones with the holes in for the 110 hilift jack adapter to try and get better clearance on the body when jacking. I haven't tried it yet but it still looks a bit nip and tuck!
they also made me a custom rear bumper that I can hilift on, well actually I could probably tow the QE2 with it!!

we are now thinking of a front one, but I am waiting to decide wether to get a winch or not.

sorry for the slow response, I've been on a jaunt!!
andy
