Thank you for the specifics, sincerely appreciate it and everyone else’s help as well. The two links that have been shared here are pretty much exactly what I’m looking for (tire size). Being one of the earlier LS400s, my 1992 oem tire size is 205 65 15. Here is what I was thinking of doing...

Hahaha that is my goal! I know this build is crazy (albeit not the first to do it/also alot of Crown Vic people have done this) but I am determined and will hopefully be able to get this done soon if cost is cheap. Eaton spring company apparently custom makes springs to your liking but that is...

Hello LC Community, A few months back I sold my 1992 FJ80 and purchased a different 1992 Toyota product, an LS400. I do have plans of purchasing another Cruiser in the future but in the meantime (And please don't shoot me) I'd like to have some fun with my LS and lift it to fit 28-30 in offroad...

Hello, My name is David and I foolishly sold my 1991 FJ80 about six months ago as it needed A LOT of work and on my budget it was just too much. I made the mistake of replacing it with a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 single cab with the 360 which I bought due to it's low miles but the tranny is having...

Nothing crazy but finally got my 350k mile 3FE to pass smog yesterday here in SoCal!!! I found a shop that was able to "work with me" for only 20 bucks more than the "standard" smog check and all the paperwork is legit, couldn't be happier. I may even wind up de smoging the old truck now that I...

Thanks for the reply. To answer your question: 1. The PO gave me a smog test print out from around 2 years ago showing the emissions readings and it did not pass at the time (can't remember each reading's measurements or by how far off it failed) 2. There are a decent amount of fumes from the...

Hey Everyone, First off I have put my flame suit on and am prepared for any negative comments due to this thread. I have been helped out big time by the members of this forum and I commute in my 80 every day thanks to you folks. Long story short, I have a 1991 FJ80 3FE with 335k miles on her...

Looks very interesting and beyond cool. Prices seem to be around 400 a wheel which for what you get doesn't seem all that bad. I checked out their website and it doesn't look like they support the 80 series but perhaps another member could suggest a size that would work with modification...

Can't comment personal ownership experience with a 93-97 80 series but my '91 3FE powered 80 is a daily commuter even with my slim 22 year old budget. 30 miles round trip a day 5 days a week in rush hour traffic (8AM and 5PM) on the 405. Oh, and my tank has 335,000 miles on her all I've done...

Sorry to hear this happened. I'm sure others far more knowledgeable than myself can address where the water is coming in from but I do fancy myself a above average automotive detailed. I see you are located in Tanzania so not sure if they will have this product in your country (no offense)...

Hello Everyone, First and foremost I want to thank everyone on this forum for adding to the wonderful experience I've had owning my 1991 Land Cruiser. Your knowledge and support has helped me keep my old beast running strong. Sadly however, I will be selling my 1991 Land Cruiser asap for...

Thank you for the info I sincerely appreciate it. My 91 has 33in tires which are shot and offbeat rims so this would probably make my year if this works out. The seller seems to be alittle difficult and am awaiting a response back but thanks again and if this works out and they dont come with...

Thank you was worried as mine is a 91 but glad to know hope this works out thank you

Hello Everyone, I have a 1991 FJ80 and was wondering if one of you kind souls could tell me if the wheels in the attached link will fit my 1991 80 series. Currently my truck has 33in tires 15in wheels and a 2.5inch lift so clearance wont be a problem but I just want to make sure the wheels I'm...

Thanks for all the replies everyone, once again I was able to do my own repairs and get the job done myself (Of course with the help of you great folks). There was a larger missing vacuum line going from the VCV to the intake. Got the hose on there and the idle doesn't stumble to 100 rpm and...
