Post storage LC service

#1

Post by mferg »

Hi All.
My LC79 has been in storage in Jhb for over a year. I used to get it serviced and checked by good 4x4 mechanic in Cape Town but am looking for recommendations of somewhere good to take in Gauteng. Will need basic service (filters, oil) but also comprehensive check of suspension, drive shaft, brakes, bearings, bushings, lubrication etc etc before taking it on trip.

A good place in Centurion is Dastek. Speak with Francois.
If you do not have joy, you are welcome to bring it to me as well.

I'd recommend Forum Member Anthoney Forgey. Yes - he specalises with Patrols. But we all know a Patrol is very similar to a Cruiser. But it's for men... :)

Agrees with Leon. From some other forums Toyo Service is the place to go.
You will never find me without Stroh or a 4x4 :D

This is not the Forum where we randomly go completely off topic for no reason Chas.

I am certainly no Landcruiser expert. However, If you don't come right with the many other recommended workshops, then give me a shout. 0 7 9 4 9 9 7 6 9 2
