switching to a landcruiser!

[chet]

Well after years of humming and hawing and telling myself the samurai will work I finally did it. I found a 1987 hj61 import from Japan with RHD, diesel 12ht, 5 spd, cable lockers, PTO winch, OME lift and 33's fully loaded too.

I pick it up tonight and then have to sell my samurai. I have not wheeled a large vehicle in a LONG time so I'm sure some size adjustment off road will be necessary!:smiley_drive:

I'll have picks tomorrow hopefully.

Wonderful.. I absolutely love the 12H-T as well, one of my favorite toyota diesels of all time...

Good luck on your new toy. Them are tough beasts. :wings:

Not only did you switch, you went all the way!!!

Better fix your sig.

How did you find it? Though maybe you shouldn't say. I have enough trouble keeping off ebay.au

He's in Canada - no trouble to acquire a JDM HJ61 (though a nice one is getting hard to find).
It looks sweet, and a 12H-T, H55F, and cable lockers is a tough combo to beat. Nice score!

Thanks guys. I actually found it locally to me around 15 minutes from my house. All the others I have inquired about over the last few years were either too expensive and local or in Alberta or Sask. I guess I will add it to my sig

My wife thinks I have vehicle ADD the way I switch them around but I think I am done for a while now. I found it fun for a while and made some extra cash doing it but it takes up alot of time and most buyers now are a PITA!
