I purchased this cruiser in 2007 as the third owner and have extensive receipts dating back to when the second owner purchased this truck in 1988, including a log of every gastank fill up with MPGs etc. I didn’t keep that part up, but did keep up the receipts. The H55F, transfer splitcase rebuild, new clutch, front third rebuild, new radiator, valve adjustment were all done September of last year 2012 by Robbie Antonson (Adventure Offroad), Robbie is the tech editor for Toyota trails and best in the business land cruiser whisperer, it doesn’t get better than that. He went through the entire truck.

This truck has been great to me and I would drive it from coast to coast without hesitation. It saddens me to sell but priorities have changed in life. I will build another in the future.

Wow, didn't see this coming. I've spent a handful of days out on the trail with this 60, a fantastic rig! Here is to hoping it finds a good home, I'll be spreading the word around these parts.

Thanks! The suspension is OME heavy lift springs with greasable shackles. Yes the A/C works well, it is still the old R12 in there (if it works, dont fix it).

Very tempting. Any leaks?

It will mark its spot with a couple of drops of oil when parked, literally a couple of drops. I had the mechanic look into it and it is either the front lip of the oil pan or front main seal. it is very minor. Nothing on the rear of engine or transmission, rear main was replaced last year when new transmission was installed and transfer was rebuilt.
