Couldn't have said it better myself.... 80 series are awesome vehicles, but you will get a higher level of refinement with a 100 series. I would say if you are looking for off road capability, go with the 80. If you want a vehicle for road trips, vacations, etc. go with the 100. Have a nice...

I have often thought of consolidating my vehicles as well, I just can't part with my 60. I commute 60 miles a day and our winters aren't all that bad anymore, so having a 4x4 for a daily driver just doesn't make sense for me. I'm not crazy about my 98 Nissan Altima, but the mpg's are good, it...

:bowdown: I would probably sell my soul for that.

Just my opinion.....I would never consider getting rid of an 80 for a Montero (especially one as nice as you described :)). However, I can totally understand what you are saying about the gas consumption of your 80. I just love the quality, styling and durability of a Land Cruiser. Did you...

Thanks for the compliments everyone!

Unfortunately, I don't. I have had so many different vehicles and I have never documented any of my build-ups. And I always say to myself "boy, I wish I had pictures of that". I just never think about it until the vehicle is gone. But now that I joined Expo I am going to take more pictures so I...

Well, mine's not the greatest but I will be glad to start this one off... 1985 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 245K 4-Speed 2F Bottom End w/ 3F EFI Head 3" OME Suspension 15X8 American Racing Steelies w/ 1" Billet Wheel Spacers 33X12.50R15 BFG Mud-Terrains ARB Bull Bar IPF Auxiliary Lights

Haha... Well, I feel better now! They are both great vehicles...I like the simplicity and toughness of the 60, and I like the refinement and styling of the 80.

I run 33X12.50R15's on 15X8 AR black steelies w/ a 1" billet wheel spacer on my 60 with a 3" OME Suspension.... no rubbing unless I am under heavy articulation and turning at the same time. Pics: Side Shot: http://expeditionportal.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=15066&d=1201976828...

:Wow1: Man, that's not even fair! That is exactly how I would build it .... my hat's off to you!

Very nice! I'm starting to regret joining Expedition Portal now...... all of you with these nice 80s are making me so jealous!!! Haha. Have a nice weekend all!

Thanks for the compliment. Yes, it's still a work in progress, a little bit at a time. Right now, I'm trying to figure out a simple, cost effective solar panel setup, for a fridge or radio when I'm camping or traveling.

They are very rare around here as well. How do you like your 80? I would love to get one of those someday... they're almost as hard to find as a 60 around here.

Hi Everyone, I took some pictures this morning. Sorry, I don't have any action shots. And like I said before, she's not real pretty so please be kind. :) In case any of you were wondering... 3" OME Suspension 33X12.50 BFG Mud-Terrain KM 15X8 American Racing Black Steelies 1" Billet Wheel...

Mitch: I have the 60 Series 2F Bottom End w/ a 62 Series 3FE Head. I works pretty good, still slow but very reliable. -Matt

Thanks Everyone! I will take some pictures once the weather breaks here. It is a miserable day here in PA!

Thanks Dylan!

I swear by OME. Load consideration is very important to achieve a good ride quality (if that is important :) )

Haha.... you got that right!

Thank You
