I'm looking at possibly getting a 60 series but can't seem to find anywhere that does a decent range of parts for it in the UK?
Or am I just being thick?

I'm torn between a Mk1/2 Hilux and a HJ60 and it's hard to decide at the moment but the fact that the hilux is easy to get parts for is swaying me in that direction at the moment.
As well as things like clutch and brake components I'm looking for things such as lifting springs, shackles, body lift spacers, long travel shocks etc.
I know the 60 series is similar in setup to the mk1-3 hiluxes suspension and driveline wise but not sure if any/what parts are interchangable?

Any help much appreciated Smile

Thanks for the welcomes Smile

I've had a look on milner, cheers rodger. There isn't a great deal in the way of 60 series parts on there though. Saying that - there isn't that wide a variety of hilux stuff to be honest either.
But I thought there may be another place that specialises more in land cruiser bits, like roughtrax do hilux? I know frog island do bits for the 80 series but not any other.

Availability wise trump for a hilux I break them (79 to 97) so 2nd hand parts aren't a problem and theres loads of parts suppliers for them. For pure beefiness the 60 wins though
