I just removed my radiator on a HJ60 series 1983 LandCruiser. It looks like a stock radiator and some of the fins are damaged. It has a 2H engine (manual) what are my options? Do I order a cheap eBay radiator? Otherwise I see a new radiator would be 1000$+ can I just reuse the old one? thanjs

Hi, Looking to install some rear air bags in the coils. The kit doesn’t come with specific instructions for the vehicle - how would I go about removing the rear coils on a 2022 150 prado? Is this possible in your driveway with jack stands or should I get it done professionally. thanks

What are the other options? I dont have the gear to powdercoat so cant do that DIY. Is it worth the money to get it professionally powder coated? Or will a DIY spray paint job with a glossy black look alright?

Hi, Just serviced my car at Nissan and they’re quoting 1450 to repair a leak at the timing cover gasket. Is this reasonably priced? Is this something you can DIY? Is it simply just a gasket seal that needs to be replaced? thanks

Hi, Took my nissan navara d22 2010 to Nissan dealer and they have a list of things that need doing. Does anything in the list below seem suitable for a beginner/newbie to service and DIY? - Steering drag link has excessive play (quoted $1042 AUD) - Radiator coolant bleed and fluid replacement...
