    My Toyota landcruiser 120 build progress and update

    I total agree with you...the top is facing up far to much...not sure what solution to use to solve it...I think it will let rain in when stormy. Because of its angle...The garage said their is a drainage hole in it some where...I never got chance to inspect it before it was installed.

    Newbie from Devon

    I love my new ome suspension and springs...only a very small lift but heavier duty springs for the extra weight. Only fitted a couple of weeks ago and the ride is a lot stiffer and firm. But still forgiving on ruts and bumps... Sent from my iPad using OB Talk

    Abenteuer & Allrad 2018

    I want to go to Germany again but this year is not an option as other trips clash with it. It is an expensive from uk to Germany with your own vehicle. Even though I do enjoy it and the company last year was awesome. the show was great too...good weather too. Maybe next one will be better.

    UK 'Trip' - as best we can!!

    I do know some lanes but others I haven’t done. The old coach road is a good one but not for the faint hearted with the damaged due to water ingress...I last went on it with my hilux and made it but you have to be spotted through one section.
