Glad it went to a good home!! It was a joy to build. Mike

New to me 1993 1. 1993 FZJ 80, maroon (not sure what Toyota calls it?) 2. Mike or Shmabs 3. First LC, had it a little over a month ago 4. 213k when I bought it, 215k now. 5. The truck came with a small lift and 33 inch duratracs which I swapped out for cooper AT3's, basically stock other...

Thanks for all the input folks. I'm base lining the 80, and getting it up to my standards as I have a trip to Utah in a few weeks and will be taking the 80, so that will be a good test to see how well the chassis works for me. As I explained to my brother, I really like the 80 series platform...

Thanks for the info guys, I'm thinking that a 100 would probably be the "perfect" truck for me, but then again, I'm not sure if that really exists. I'm going to start taking care of a few of the issues the truck has and go from there. Mike

Hi guys, I ended up buying the 80 series and driving it 500ish miles home. I'm not sure it's the right truck for me, so it may be for sale again shortly. I'm having a hard time getting comfortable in it (knee and back issues) and if I can't get comfortable in truck, it's tough for me to hang...

Greetings, I'm considering making the leap into the world of 80 series land cruisers. I'm going to look at this one Saturday morning, thoughts from the experts? http://corvallis.craigslist.org/cto/5505484996.html and the original for sale ad on mud...

Hi there, Here is my take on the 2nd gen Xterra rear storage "rack", I can't claim to have come up with the idea, as there are a few out there, but as always I wanted to do things a bit different, and it was fun to build rather than buy. Goals: -minimal weight gain -secure mounting for Co2...

SOLD

maintenance A couple of things to straighten out here. I can assure you that the USFS doesn't use prison inmates to maintain those. They are either maintained by local commercial vendors, or in some rare cases by Forest Service Mechanics, though there aren't many of those left, so most of the...

Greetings, This is a Kent Moore J-35888-60A DDEC Repair Kit, typically used for repairing Detroit Diesel Engine Control harnesses. It has crimpers for metri-pack, Delphi weather pack, and Deutch Pin connectors. It was purchased for a buddy of mine, but he never used it, so it's currently...

I called the guy selling it, and he doesn't speak English and I don't speak Spanish, so I didn't get very far. If someone is considering that truck, get me the VIN and I might be able to pull all the Forest Service maintenance history on it.

Thread please!

Light bar has sold.

Brian, Congrats on number 2, hope you and the family are doing well. I'll be interested to see what's next for you guys. Mike

Sorry for the delay folks! I had an rather "all of a sudden" transfer with job to northern CA and I am still getting settled in an unpacked. Lightbar is still for sale, I'm working with someone who has been emailing me about trying to ship it via UPS, but the very small town I moved to doesn't...
