1997 Lexus LX450 ( 80 Series ) NOT triple locked. Paint is Champagne Pearl code 1B1
I am the 3rd owner and I am a Parts Manager by trade so I know the importance of Original Toyota parts with that said I have sourced parts from Toyota USA, Toyota Japan and out of the UAE. I would say 90% of the service parts I installed were factory Toyota parts and the rest was as good or better aftermarket equivalent parts.
UPDATE: I had the Frame and Axles + Undercarriage done by Inge Dry Ice in Middletown Louisville Kentucky and backed by there 3 year warranty. Everything turned out great and what an Amazing transformation !! Frame is Solid and they said this frame was one of the...

I have a 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser I need to re-home. Only 147k miles, yes it is triple locked. Yes the lockers work, the D light works, even the moon roof works and does not leak! Don’t ask about power antenna working, it’s manual operation only currently. Runs and drives great, garners a lot of attention. A/C blows ice cold, heat works great! Put in a lot of work to get this restored and built up correctly. Over $12k in parts put in since I have owned it.
Cons: Body, has some scratches, dings, dents, couple areas of cracked paint, some paint bubbles, and some hail dents on roof.
Carpet could use replacing, had a DVD player previously removed on headliner. Previous owner added a mount for likely antenna to rear hatch area, has...
Hi friends! I am planing to build a 80 series to live out of. I am very specifically looking for a '95, '96, or '97, manual, turbo diesel HDJ81, with a tailgate instead of barn doors. I live in Hawaii and would be shipping it here, but am able to fly to buy and ship the vehicle myself. I plan to sell my current vehicle for around 25K, anything above that would be a loan. I look forward to hearing from you guys, and am hopefully able to find a unicorn <3
1994 Toyota Land Cruiser For Sale in Baltimore, Maryland
I have owned this vehicle since 2011. It runs very well and is completely stock except for the 35” tires and lift kit. I doubt you can find an unrestored 1994 Land Cruiser in better condition. I bought a 2016 Tundra for hauling so the Land Cruiser must go. Below is a list of items beyond routine maintenance that have been tackled over the last 11 years. There is very little rust and she has been garage kept since I bought her. She only shows 145k miles which I believe is close to the actual mileage. I did drive infrequently for about a year with a broken odometer. Everything other than items listed below works including all available factory options to include the factory...
I have a 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser that I bought for a project/flip and have determined that I’m ready to be out of the flipping/project game. It is a great start to a build. It runs and drives very well. The engine is gooey. Leaking from every common leak point. The interior is not pretty, but doesn’t smell and was a non smoker. The windows and sunroof work and don’t leak. The tires look to be new. The knuckles have some mileage left. The rear hatch has a couple of rust spots around the glass. The frame is one of the cleanest that I’ve seen. Airbag and ABS lights are on. It needs a rear driveshaft. It’s not there. Drives on the front shaft. It is NOT LOCKED. I’m not trying to make any money. Just want to sell it for what I have in it...
Very reluctant to let this one go. Lots of love and new OEM parts later. I've enjoyed it and time to make room for another truck. So this gem is getting released back into the wild. It's been kept as original as possible:
An exceptionally rare Land Cruiser spec with cool provenance:
This 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser HDJ81 is not your average 80 Series. Powered by the legendary 1HD-FT 4.2L turbo diesel inline-six and paired with the coveted factory 5-speed manual transmission, this JDM-market example delivers unmatched mechanical integrity and long-haul capability. With just 61,000 original miles, it stands as one of the finest examples of its kind available today.
Originally special-ordered through Tokyo Toyota, purchased and owned by...
Selling for a friend… Located in Longmont, CO - 80503. I’ll be taking care of all correspondence until the final purchase, where you’ll deal directly with Dennis. I’m willing to work with out of state buyers if you want this shipped. I know of a good, reliable, and fair nationwide shipper in Denver.
1994 LandCruiser w/ 164,xxx miles. No lockers. 2nd owner since the mid-2000s. Good overall condition. Interior is very clean. Well maintained. Everything works. Has always been a second or third vehicle. Never run hard, abused, or wrecked. 100% original. Purchased new in Oklahoma and is rust free. Runs, drives, and stops great. Tires have excellent tread. Full tune-up including engine belts and pulleys done last fall. New...
With my 80 being a victim of an unfortunate accident, I am on the hunt for a replacement, and upgrade hopefully. I am a new member, but I plan on being here from now on, my ‘96 left a lasting impression that these are one of the best rig ever made and I would love the opportunity to care for another. Here is what I am looking for:
• 95-97 model only
• US market model only
• Triple Locked only
• at or less than 150k miles is very preferable
• Any color is acceptable, but I lean heavily towards dark emerald
• Must be tan interior. No shame on grey, just not my thing
• The closer to stock the better, but not a dealbreaker (I’d like to do my own mods, but I understand that they’re not all going to be bone stock). Attached picture is a...
Up for sale is my 1993 Land Cruiser FZJ80. has the much sought after triple lockers (Front/Rear/Center). also has the optional pushbutton on the dash to activate the center differential when in high range without having to lock the differentials.
the good stuff: engine was overhauled approximately 15k ago, transmission was overhauled approximately 1k-2k ago. runs good and shifts good. new battery less than 6 months ago, Sony bluetooth radio, replaced both front power window motors, has triple lockers that all still work at this time, front flood light that is wired so that when selected turns on and off with the high beams only, has a front ARB bumper with a Warn VR10k winch, ARB roof rack, custom rear bumper with relocated spare tire...

Triple Locked 1997 LX450 / Toyota Land Cruiser 80 Series
Clean California Title in hand
Registered through September 2024
180,000 Miles
Owned by me since August 2021
Originally a California vehicle, garage-kept in Aspen, CO for a time, then on to Texas (prior owner who did some of the modifications), then back to California with me. Undercarriage is solid. Selling because we’ve moved and I'm not able to put the truck to use anymore.
A TON of maintenance has been done (way beyond baselining). An incredible modified and tight 80 series Land Cruiser with low miles! This truck is adventure ready and loves to explore!
Modifications:
-3" lift front and rear (Dobison 3” IMS)
-Re-geared 4.56 (to accommodate 35” tires)
-ARB onboard air...

Yes it has OBDII and no it does not have lockers. :cool:
1995
227k miles
Rust free Arizona vehicle
History:
I rolled my triple locked & built 1996 late last year. I bought this thinking I would use the body and then maybe do something cool with the chassis like put a FJ45 body on it. My plans have changed. I've decided to bang the dents out of my 96, maybe do a roll cage, and just send it. :clap: No use for this one anymore.
I don't think this was ever taken off road. Mostly stock with EMU suspension. Not even a CDL switch. Arizona vehicle. Minor surface rust on the chassis but about as clean as I've seen. When I bought it I had a mechanic do an oil change and flush the radiator. That's all the baselining that has...
Title says it all. Hoping to buy a 1996/1997 FZJ80 or LX450, preferably within 500 miles of Denver. Budget is 8k. Really looking for rust free and in a state it could make it back to Denver.
Found one for 6k but has 375k miles. Thoughts on that being too many?
For sale: 1996 Toyota Land Cruiser, 1HDFT Diesel, manual 5 speed transmission, part time transfer case, factory triple locked, San Diego
The Truck is a 1996 US FZJ80, 272k miles, white original paint, factory triple locked.
It is one of the three 80 series that the late Marv Specter originally converted to diesel. I bought it from Marv in 2011 with a 1HDT and a used H151F transmission and an HF1A transfer case. The tired 1HDT was then swapped out against a new 1HDFT (yes, new) and a new H151F (yes, new) in 2016. At that time the HF1A was rebuilt with all new bearings and seals from Terrain Tamer. Starts at the first turn of the key.
The truck has a clean CA diesel title. Not a grey title, a clean title that says D as motor power...

Wanted 1996/1997 LX 450 (any color) or LC 80-series (Blue, Black, Green, Gray) for ~$12,500 near CA.
Hi ih8mud:
I'm ELI, and I'm a new poster. I've been lurking for a few months while I was considering taking a dive into an LC80/LX450. Just wanted to take a shot and start a "Wanted" thread to see if anyone has anything out there! I'm open to shipping to CA nationwide, or if reasonably near CA, I'm open to driving it back to CA. No real restrictions other than what's mentioned in the title--just want to see what's out there, and just want to take this chance to say hello!
More pics to those interested. This truck kind of fell in to my lap. A buddy of mine bought it from a guy who didn't really know anything about Land Cruisers, and then my buddy bought a Tundra and didn't have room to store it, so now I have it. I don’t know how to price it in its current state, let’s call it $5500.
I have 2 other Cruisers and I'm not really in need of a 3rd. It's a running, driving, stopping 3FE FJ80 that isn't rotted out. It however, isn't without issues. Has a 15 foot paint job. The headlights are poorly installed, presumably from the same people who painted it. Runs a little rough. Blink test reveals check engine light codes 21 and 28 for O2 sensor circuit. It appears that the O2 sensors were removed from the...
1996 Toyota Land Cruiser 80 my daily driver until May when I picked up a newer truck.

Time to thin the herd. Bought the 1995 a few years ago from the original owner and had Slee turn it from stock to nicely built truck. Have enjoyed it, but need to turn it over to someone with more time for off-roading who wants a great 80 that is ready to go.
298k original miles. Head gasket is original, but I have had the exhaust gas in the radiator test done twice to rule out any current problem. Came back with no indication of exhaust gas in radiator. Mechanic said that some engines don’t develop the problem. He said more important than mileage is the maintenance that was performed. I have receipts for all scheduled maintenance done since 2010, and all the work I have had done. Never had problem passing emissions in Denver County...
Searching for a 6bt swapped 80 series or lx450. Ideally 95 or newer. Flexible on price and willing to travel. Currently overseas so not quite ready yet but wanted to get an idea of what’s out there.
1996 FZJ80 LandCruiser
$39k or best acceptable offer
Many years of work put into this one with the plan to keep it, and then pass it down to my children. Bought some property up in Arkansas and found a 1 ton four-wheel-drive Ram 6.7 six-speed flatbed dually work truck. Can’t keep both. Much more invested than is in the price. Now need money for fencing and gates.
